Answer:

The speed of the small engine car is <u>_equal to_</u> the speed of the massive cargo car. The magnitude of the acceleration of the small engine car is <u>_equal to_</u> the magnitude of the acceleration of the massive cargo car because <u>_the cars speeds cannot change by different amounts_</u> .

Explanation:

The two cars are connected, hence, they move with the same speed at all points in time.

A 15.0 g bullet traveling horizontally at 865 m&gt;s passes through a tank containing 13.5 kg of water and emerges with a speed
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The rise in temperature is 0.06 K.

Explanation:

mass of bullet, m = 15 g

initial speed, u = 865 m/s

final speed, v = 534 m/s

mass of water, M = 13.5 kg

specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg K

The change in kinetic energy

K = 0.5 m(u^2 - v^2)\\\\K = 0.5\times 0.015\times (865^2-534^2)\\\\K = 3473 J

According to the conservation of energy, the change in kinetic energy is used to heat the water.

K = m c T

where, T is the rise in temperature.

3473 = 13.5 x 4200 x T

T = 0.06 K

A coil of 1000 turns of wire has a radius of 12 cm and carries a counterclockwise current of 15A. If it is lying flat on the gro
grin007 [14]

Answer:

torque is 1.7 * 10^{-2} Nm

Explanation:

Given data

turns n = 1000 turns

radius r  = 12 cm

current I = 15A

magnitude B = 5.8 x 10^-5 T

angle θ = 25°

to find out

the torque on the loop

solution

we know that torque on the loop is

torque = N* I* A*B* sinθ

here area A = πr² = π(0.12)²

put all value

torque = N* I* A*B* sinθ

torque = 1000* 15* π(0.12)² *5.8 x 10-5 * sin25

torque = 0.0166 N m

torque is 1.7 * 10^{-2} Nm

A long-distance swimmer is able to swim through still water at 4.0 km/h. She wishes to try to swim from Port Angeles, Washington
Roman55 [17]

Let \theta be the direction the swimmer must swim relative to east. Then her velocity relative to the water is

\vec v_{S/W}=\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)(\cos\theta\,\vec\imath+\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath)

The current has velocity vector (relative to the Earth)

\vec v_{W/E}=\left(3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath

The swimmer's resultant velocity (her velocity relative to the Earth) is then

\vec v_{S/E}=\vec v_{S/W}+\vec v_{W/E}

\vec v_{S/E}=\left(\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\sin\theta\,\vec\jmath

We want the resultant vector to be pointing straight north, which means its horizontal component must be 0:

\left(4.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}\right)\cos\theta+3.0\dfrac{\rm km}{\rm h}=0\implies\cos\theta=-\dfrac{3.0}{4.0}\implies\theta\approx138.59^\circ

which is approximately 41º west of north.
