Answer:

232.641374 mph

Explanation:

A race car has a maximum speed of 0.104km/s

Let X represent the speed in miles per hour

Therefore the speed in miles per hour can be calculated as follows

1 km/s = 2,236.936292 mph

0.104km/s = X

X = 0.104 × 2,236.936292

X = 232.641374

Hence the speed in miles per hour is 232.641374 mph

While playing basketball in PE class, Logan lost his balance after making a lay-up and colliding with the padded wall behind the

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

Many industries are powered via distant power stations. Calculate the current flowing through a 7,300m long 10. copper power lin

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Current, I = 1000 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of the copper wire, l = 7300 m

Resistance of copper line, R = 10 ohms

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

$\mu_o=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A$

Resistivity, $\rho=1.72\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the current flowing the copper wire. Firstly, we need to find the radius of he power line using physical dimensions as :

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}$

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho l}{R\pi}}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.72\times 10^{-8}\times 7300}{10\pi}}$

r = 0.00199 m

$r=1.99\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\times 10^{-3}\ m$

The magnetic field on a current carrying wire is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi rB}{\mu_o}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.1\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}$

I = 1000 A

So, the current of 1000 A is flowing through the copper wire. Hence, this is the required solution.

A water-skier with weight Fg = mg moves to the right with acceleration a. A horizontal tension force T is exerted on the skier b

Degger [83]

Answer:

The correct relationships are T-fg=ma and L-fg=0.

(A) and (C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight Fg = mg

Acceleration = a

Tension = T

Drag force = Fa

Vertical force = L

We need to find the correct relationships

Using balance equation

In horizontally,

The acceleration is a

$T-Fd=ma$ ...(I)

In vertically,

No acceleration

$w=L$

$mg-L=0$

Put the value of mg

$L-fg=0$ ....(II)

Hence, The correct relationships are T-fg=ma and L-fg=0.

(A) and (C) is correct option.

A child is sliding a toy block (with mass = m) down a ramp. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the ramp is

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$F=mg(sin(\theta )-0.25 cos(\theta ))$

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the block on the slide is shown in the below figure

Since the block is in equilibrium we apply equations of statics to compute the necessary unknown forces

N is the reaction force between the block and the slide

For equilibrium along x-axis we have

$\sum F_{x}=0\\\\mgsin(\theta )-\mu N-F=0\\\therefore F=mgsin(\theta)-\mu N......(\alpha )\\Similarly\\\sum F_{y}=0\\\\N-mgcos(\theta )=0\\\therefore N=mgcos(\theta ).......(\beta )\\\\$

Using value of N from equation β in α we get value of force as

$F=mg(sin(\theta )-\mu cos(\theta ))$

Applying values we get

$F=mg(sin(\theta )-0.25 cos(\theta ))$

faust18 [17]

The random variable in this experiment is a Continuous random variable.

Option D

<u>Explanation</u>:

The continuous random variable is random variable where the data can take infinite variables. For example random variable is taken for measuring "speed of automobiles" on the highways. The radar instrument depicts time taken by automobile in particular what speed. They are the generalization of discrete random variables not the real numbers as a random data is created. It gives infinite sets of all possible outcomes. It is obvious that outcomes of the instrument depend on some "physical variables" those are not predictable as depends on the situation.
