Of the following, which gives the best estimate of the velocity of the automobile, in feet per second, at time t = 8 seconds?

a. s(8)
b. s(8)/8
c. s(12)- s(2)/ 12-2
d. s(9)- s(7)/9-7

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Velocity = \frac{s(8)}{8}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]0 \leq t \leq 12[/tex]

Required

Determine the velocity when t = 8

This type of velocity is referred to as an instantaneous velocity.

In this case, it is calculated using

[tex]Velocity = \frac{Distance\ at\ 8 second}{t = 8}[/tex]

Given that s(t) models the distance;

s(8) = distance at 8 seconds

So;

[tex]Velocity = \frac{s(8)}{8}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The  correct option is  A

Explanation:

Generally the force on [tex]q_2[/tex] is mathematically represented as

      [tex]F_2 = \frac{ k * q_1 * q_2 }{ x^2}[/tex]

here k is the coulombs constant with value [tex]k = 9*10^{9}\ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.[/tex]

=>   [tex]F_2 = \frac{ 9*10^{9} * 10*10^{-9} * 18*10^{-9} }{ 9^2}[/tex]

=>    [tex]F_2 = 2*10^{-8} \ N[/tex]

=>   [tex]F_2 = 20*10^{-9} \ N[/tex]

=>   [tex]F_2 = 20nN[/tex]

The  direction is  in the positive x-axis because both charge are of the same polarity so the will repel hence [tex]q_2[/tex] will move toward the positive x-axis

For any object in projectile motion, the vertical velocity is independent of gravity?​

Answers

Answer:

the y axis, every moment is subjected to a vertical acceleration directed towards the center of the Earth, which is called the acceleration of gravity

Explanation:

In projectile launching, the movement is separated into two movements, one on the x-axis and the other on the y-axis, related through time.

In horizontal movement, the speed is constant, because there is no acceleration in this axis, the effect of air friction is almost always eliminated.

In the other movement on the y axis, every moment is subjected to a vertical acceleration directed towards the center of the Earth, which is called the acceleration of gravity.

This value of the eceleration of gravity is constant for small distances

compared to the radius of the Earth, for higher altitudes an expansion in beings of the distance is used, giving a linear dependence.

What acceleration would a 18 kg box have if we pushed it with a force of 250 N across a surface that
has a coefficient of friction of 0.8?
N

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=0.08\ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a box, m = 18 kg

It is pushed with a force of 250 N

The coefficient of friction is 0.8

We need to find the acceleration of the box.

Normal force acting on the box,

N = mg

M = 18 × 10

N = 180 N

The force acting on the force in terms of coefficient of friction is given by :

[tex]F=\mu mg\\\\\text{or}\\\\ ma=\mu mg\\\\a=\dfrac{\mu }{g}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.8}{10}\\\\a=0.08\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the acceleration of the box is [tex]0.08\ m/s^2[/tex]

5. A projectile is fired in Earth's gravitational field with a horizontal velocity of y = 9.00 m/s.
b. How far does the projectile fall in the vertical direction in 0.550 s?

Answers

Answer:

4.13m

Explanation:

Given

Horizontal velocity = 9.00m/s

time taken = 0.550 s

Required

How far does the projectile fall in the vertical direction

Using the formula for finding the maximum height of the projectile

H = U²sin²θ/2g where;

U = 9.00m/s

θ = 90° (object launched in the vertical direction)

g = 9.81m/s²

Substituting the given parameters into the formula;

H = 9²sin²90/2(9.81)

H = 81(1)/19.62

H = 81/19.62

H = 4.128 m

H ≈ 4.13m

Hence the distance that the projectile fall in the vertical direction is 4.13m

When a gas undergoes an isothermal process, there is
(A) no heat added to the gas.
(B) no work done by (or on) the gas.
(C) no change in the temperature of the gas.
(D) no change in the volume of the gas.
(E) no change in the pressure of the gas.

Answers

Answer:

(C) no change in the temperature of the gas.

Explanation:

isothermal process of a gas, can result to compression of the gas or expansion of the gas at a constant temperature (ΔT = 0).

For isothermal gas expansion, work is done in reducing the pressure of the gas by increasing its volume at a constant temperature. The change in the internal energy of this process is zero (ΔU = 0).

For isothermal gas compression, work is done in decreasing the volume of the gas by increasing its pressure at a constant temperature. The change in the internal energy of this process is also zero (ΔU = 0).

Therefore, when a gas undergoes an isothermal process, there is no change in the temperature of the gas.

b) What distance does light travel in water, glass, cubic zirconia during the time it travels in 1.0 m vacuum?

Answers

Answer:

a

      [tex]t  =  3.33 \  ns[/tex]

b

i      [tex]D_w  =0.75 \  m [/tex]

ii     [tex]D_g  =0.67 \  m [/tex]

iii     [tex]D_c  =0.46 \  m [/tex]

Explanation:

Generally the time taken to travel 1 m in a vacuum is mathematically represented as

       [tex]t  =  \frac{1}{c}[/tex]

Here c is the speed of light with value  [tex]c =  3.0*10^{8} \  m/s[/tex]

So  

          [tex]t  =  \frac{1}{3.0*10^{8}}[/tex]

          [tex]t  =  3.33*10^{-9} \  s[/tex]

         [tex]t  =  3.33 \  ns[/tex]

The distance light travels in water is mathematically represented as

Here n_w  is the refractive index of  water with value 1.333

So

      [tex]D_w  = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{1.333}  *  3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]

     [tex]D_w  =0.75 \  m [/tex]

The distance light travels in glass is mathematically represented as

       [tex]D_g  = \frac{c}{n_g}  *  t[/tex]

Here n_g  is the refractive index of  glass with value 1.5

So

      [tex]D_g  = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{1.5}  *  3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]

     [tex]D_g  =0.67 \  m [/tex]

The distance light travels in cubic zirconia is mathematically represented as

       [tex]D_c  = \frac{c}{n_g}  *  t[/tex]

Here n_c  is the refractive index of cubic zirconia with value 2.15

So

      [tex]D_c  = \frac{3.0*10^{8}}{2.15}  *  3.33*10^{-9}[/tex]

What is force?

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

Suppose that a certain battery produces a voltage of 1.55V without a load connected (open circuit) and a current of 500mA when shorted. According to these specifications, if we were to model this as an ideal voltage source in series with a source resistance, what should the source voltage and internal resistance be? Justify your answer

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the internal resistance be r .

Since in open circuit the volt is 1.55 V , this will be the source voltage .

Source voltage = 1.55

If external resistance be R .

1.55 / (R + r ) = .500

R + r = 3.1 ohm

So sum of internal resistance and external resistance will be 3.1 ohm.

How much work must be done to stop a 1150 kg car traveling at 120 km/h?

Answers

Answer:

The work to be done is 638,761.12 J

Explanation:

Given;

Sally walks to the store at a rate of 3 m/s for 15 seconds. She stops at a crosswalk for 4 seconds until the sign tells her she can go. Sally ran across the street at 5 m/s for 3 seconds until she reached the other side. She then walked the rest of the way to the store at 3 m/s. If the store was 100 m away from where Sally started originally and it took her 250 seconds to get there, what was her average speed?

Answers

Answer:

Average speed= 0.4 m/s  

Explanation:

step one:

simply put average speed is defined as the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken.

step two:

given data

total distance is the distance from where she started to the store

which is 100 m

also, we are told that the total time taken is 250 seconds

step three:

Hence we can compute the average speed as

average speed= 100/250

average speed= 0.4 m/s

Answers

Answer:

n = 2.25 x 10¹⁴ electrons/s

Explanation:

The amount of electric current is defined as the electric charge passing through an area per unit time. Hence:

I = q/t

where,

I = Current

q = amount of charge

t = time interval

but,

q = ne

therefore,

I = ne/t

where,

n = no. of electrons

e = charge on single electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

t = 1 s (for electrons passing per second)

I = Current = 36 μA = 3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A

Therefore,

3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A = n(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/1 s

n = (3.6 x 10⁻⁵ A)/(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

n = 2.25 x 10¹⁴ electrons/s

electrons can only be found within predicted areas surrounding the nucleus.
atoms are made of positive and negative charges.

Answers

The correct answer is B. Electrons emit and absorb energy based on their position around the nucleus.

Explanation:

In general, an atom's emission of photons (light) is the result of electrons, which are the negative charge particles that orbit the nucleus. Moreover, the emission of light is likely to occur if the electron is located at a specific energy level (position in the atom) and it moves to a lower level as this requires the loss of energy in the form of photons. Also, the electron can absorb the photons and as a result gain enough energy to move to a higher level. This implies the atom's emissions of light shows the relationship between electrons emitting and absorbing energy and their position or energy level.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Electrons emit and absorb energy based on their position around the nucleus.
