A kitten sits in a lightweight basket near the edge of a table. A person accidentally knocks the basket off the table. As the ki

tten and basket fall, the kitten rolls, turns, kicks, and catches the basket in its claws. The basket lands on the floor with the kitten safely inside. If air resistance is negligible, what is the acceleration of the kitten-basket system while the kitten and basket are in midair? A The acceleration is directed downward with magnitude less than g because the basket is light. B The acceleration is directed downward with magnitude equal to g because the system is a projectile. C The acceleration fluctuates because of the rolling, turning, and kicking motion of the kitten. D The acceleration cannot be determined without knowing how hard the basket is pushed.

Answer:

the answer is B

Explanation: this was actually an ap exam question a few years back. the reason for answer B is that the only force being applied to the kitten is the force of gravity after being pushed.

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB\ sin\theta

F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Alla [95]

Answer:

14.4 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Anna (Ma) = 68 kg

speed of Anna (Va) = 17 m/s

mass of SandraDay (Ms) = 76 kg

speed of SandraDay (Vs) = 12 m/s

We can find their speed (V) immediately after collision from the conservation of momentum where

(Ma x Va) + (Ms + Vs) = (Ma + Ms) x V

where V = speed immediately after collision

(68 x 17) + (76 + 12) = (68 + 76) x V

2068 = 144 V

V = 2068 / 144 = 14.4 m/s

If you double the mass of an object while leaving the net force unchanged what is the result
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: If the net force acting on an object doubles, its acceleration is doubled. If the mass is doubled, then acceleration will be halved. If both the net force and the mass are doubled, the acceleration will be unchanged.

A strip 1.2 mm wide is moving at a speed of 25 cm/s through a uniform magnetic field of 5.6 t. what is the maximum hall voltage
Alex787 [66]
The equation for Hall voltage Vh is:

Vh=v*B*w, where v is the velocity of the strip, B is the magnitude of the magnetic field, and w is the width of the strip. 

v=25 cm/s = 0.25 m/s
B=5.6 T
w= 1.2 mm = 0.0012 m

We input the numbers into the equation and get:

Vh= 0.25*5.6*0.0012 = 0.00168 V

The maximum Hall voltage is Vh= 0.00168 V.

HELPPP<br> why is the united states considered energy rich, while japan is considered energy poor
Temka [501]

Answer:

Energy resources can be measured.  They will include the fossil fuels, geothermal and hydroelectric potential, and increasingly the renewable resources.  When the US list is compared to the World it is considered energy Rich.  When Japan's list is compared to the world standard it considered energy poor.  

A changing technology like nuclear fusion could substantially change the assessment.

Japan does not have any substantial, oil, coal, gas, deposits, while the US does.
