Answer:

a=2.5\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 5 m/s

Final speed, v = 10 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

The radius of the tire of the bike, r = 35 cm

We need to find the angular acceleration of the pebble during those two seconds. It can be calculated as follows.

a=\dfrac{v-u}t{}\\\\a=\dfrac{10-5}{2}\\\\a=2.5\ m/s^2

So, the required angular acceleration of the pebble is equal to 2.5\ m/s^2.

A train goes up a hill with a 15º incline. If the train has constant speed of 22 m/s, what are the vertical and horizontal compo
Kobotan [32]
Any two-dimensional vector in cartesian (x,y) coordinates can be broken down into individual horizontal and vertical components using trigonometry. If a train goes up a hill with 15 degree incline at a speed of 22 m/s, the horizontal component is 22cos(15)=21.3 m/s and the vertical component is 22sin(15)=5.5 m/s.

A parallel-plate capacitor is constructed of two square plates, size L×L, separated by distance d. The plates are given charge ±
vampirchik [111]

Answer: A) 2 B) 4 C) 1

Explanation:

The Electric field from a parallel-plate capacitor  is given by:

A) E=Q/(L^2 * ε0) so if we put a charge double the final electric field is double that the original.

B) from the above expression for the electric field,  If the size of the plate is double, then the E final is four times weaker that the original.

C) If the distante between plates is doubled the final electric field is the same that initial.

Consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/sm/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average rate
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

455165.278 m

Explanation:

P = Power = 3.7 W

v = Velocity = 10.7 m/s

Amount of fat = 4 g

1 gram of fat provides about 9.40 (food) Calories

Energy given by 4 g of fat

E=4\times 9.4\times 4186\\\Rightarrow E=157393.6\ J

Time required to burn the fat

t=\dfrac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{157393.6}{3.7}\\\Rightarrow t=42538.811\ s

Distance traveled by the bird

s=vt\\\Rightarrow s=10.7\times 42538.811\\\Rightarrow s=455165.2777\ m

The bird will fly 455165.278 m

What do nuclear scientists call a stick of uranium?
nikitadnepr [17]
They call it "rod" or "fission rod". This is because the uranium is the element used for the nuclear fission, where the uranium nuclei disintegrate producing lighter nuclei and energy.

A machine has an efficiency of 20 percent. Find the input work if the output work is 140 Joules
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

X= 700 Joules

Explanation:

The question asked about the efficiency of the work done.

The formula for efficiency is: Efficiency = (Useful output / input work) * 100%

The useful output given in the question is 140J, the question asked for input work. Let X be the input work. It is also given that the efficiency is 20%.

Using the formula of efficiency,

20 = (140/X) * 100

So, we simply solve the above equation.

X= 140*100/20

X= 700 Joules
