Answer:

  0

Explanation:

Assuming your graph and question match the attachment, the average speed is 0. The bug ends up where it started, so its displacement is zero.

  average speed = displacement/time = 0/(8 s)

  average speed = 0

When you apply the torque equation ∑τ = 0 to an object in equilibrium, the axis about which torques are calculated:
kupik [55]

Answer:

option D.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option D.

When an object is in equilibrium torque calculated at any point will be equal to zero.

An object is said to be in equilibrium net moment acting on the body should be equal to zero.

If the net moment on the object is not equal to zero then the object will rotate it will not be stable.

The lowest point in Death Valley is 85.0 m below sea level. The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m. What is
mestny [16]

Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy of the hiker = 2869685 J

Explanation:

Potential Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body, due to its change in position in the gravitational field. The unit of potential energy is Joules (J)

From the question,

Change in gravitational potential energy = Energy of the hiker at the top of  Mt. Whitney - Energy of the hiker at the floor of Death valley.

ΔEp = mgh₂ - mgh₁

ΔEp = mg(h₂-h₁)........................... Equation 1

Where ΔEp =  change in Potential Energy of the hiker, m = mass of the hiker, g = acceleration due to gravity, h₁ = lowest point in Death valley, h₂ = Elevation of Mt. Whitney.

Given: m = 65.0 kg, h₁ = -85 m ( because is a valley), h₂ = 4420 m,

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Note: The h₁ is negative because is below sea level.

Substituting into equation 1

ΔEp = 65×9.8×[4420-(-85)]

ΔEp = 637(4420+85)

ΔEp = 637(4505)

ΔEp = 2869685

ΔEp = 2869685 J.

Thus the change in gravitational potential energy of the hiker = 2869685 J

A car initially traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and moves forward 196 m before coming to a complete halt. What was the m
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

-1.47 m/s^2

Explanation:

We can use the following SUVAT equation to solve the problem:

v^2 - u^2 = 2ad

where

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d = 196 m is the displacement of the car before coming to a stop

Solving the equation for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}=\frac{0-(24)^2}{2(196)}=-1.47 m/s^2

An electron moving at right angles to a 0.1 T magnetic field experiences an acceleration of 6 × 1015 m.s-2. What is the speed of
GaryK [48]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

Acceleration, a=6\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Charge on electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C    

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg    

(a) The force acting on the electron when it is accelerated is, F = ma

The force acting on the electron when it is in magnetic field, F=qvB\ sin\theta

Here, \theta=90

So, ma=qvB

Where

v is the velocity of the electron

B is the magnetic field

v=\dfrac{ma}{qB}

v=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg\times 6\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.1\ T}

v = 341250  m/s

or

v=3.41\times 10^5\ m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 3.41\times 10^5\ m/s

(b) In 1 ns, the speed of the electron remains the same as the force is perpendicular to the cross product of velocity and the magnetic field.

A speed ramp at an airport is basically a large conveyor belt on which you can stand and be moved along. The belt of one ramp mo
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The belt ramp is moving at 0.047 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

The equation for the position of an object moving in a straight line with a constant acceleration is:

x = x0 + v0 * t + 1/2 * a * t²

where:

x = position at time "t"

x0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

If the object moves with constant speed, then, a = 0 and x = x0 + v * t

First, let´s find the lenght of the speed ramp by calculating the distance walked by Clifford.

x = x0 + v0 * t +1/2 * a * t²

x0 = 0 placing the origin of our reference system at the begining of the ramp

v0 = 0 Clifford starts from rest

t = 64 s / 4  

a = 0.37 m/s²

Then:

x = 1/2 * 0.37 m/s² * 16 s = 3.0 m

Now that we know the lenght of the speed ramp, we can calculate the speed of the ramp which is constant:

x = x0 + v * t        x0 = 0

x = v * t

x/t = v

<u>3.0 m / 64 s = 0.047 m/s</u>
