Answer:

<em>1) 1.56 m/s</em>

<em>2) 1.11 m/s</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The bus travels 6 blocks east and 8 blocks west

Each block is 100 m long

time taken to travel through this distance = 15 min

average speed of the bus = ?

the total blocks traveled = 6 + 8 = 14 blocks

total distance traveled = 14 x 100 m = 1400 m

time taken = 15 min = 15 x 60 sec = 900 sec

average speed of the bus = distance traveled/time taken

==> 1400/900 = <em>1.56 m/s</em>

<em></em>

2) velocity = displacement/time taken

displacement is the shortest distance between the starting position and the final position of the bus.

The displacement of this bus will be the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the motion of the bus

the distance traveled east = 6 x 100 = 600 m

the distance traveled north = 8 x 100 = 800 m

displacement = \sqrt{800^2 + 600^2} = 1000 m

The velocity of the bus = 1000/900 = <em>1.11 m/s</em>

A square loop of wire with initial side length 10 cm is placed in a magnetic field of strength 1 T. The field is parallel to the
Fofino [41]

Answer:

2 x 10⁻³ volts

Explanation:

B = magnetic of magnetic field parallel to the axis of loop = 1 T

\frac{dA}{dt} = rate of change of area of the loop = 20 cm²/s = 20 x 10⁻⁴ m²

θ = Angle of the magnetic field with the area vector = 0

E = emf induced in the loop

Induced emf is given as

E = B \frac{dA}{dt}

E = (1) (20 x 10⁻⁴ )

E = 2 x 10⁻³ volts

E = 2 mV

A front wheel drive car starts from rest and accelerates to the right. Knowing that the tires do not slip on the road, what is t
Korolek [52]

Answer:

static friction acting opposite to the direction of travel

Explanation:

Because the Frictional force of the front wheels act to oppose the spinning, so, For the front wheels to roll without slipping, the friction must be static friction pointing in the direction of travel of the car.

A 5.00 kilogram mass is traveling at 100. meters per second. Determine the speed of the mass after an impulse with a magnitude o
faltersainse [42]

m = mass = 5 kg

v_{i} = initial velocity = 100 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity = ?

I = impulse = 30 Ns

Using the impulse-change in momentum equation

I = m(v_{f} - v_{i})

30 = 5 (v_{f} - 100)

v_{f} = 106 m/s

A cylinder is sliced in half along its diagonal. Determine the location of the center of mass and the inertia properties relativ
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

To better understand this problem, a cylinder sketch is attached before and after the cut, we see that after the cut, the shape of this resembles that of a right triangle.

We can find, the centroid in the xy plane, knowing that the centroid for a triangle is located a third of its base.

In the z axis there is no displacement of the centroid.
