17.3 would be the correct answer.

Oduvanchick [21]2 years ago

Answer: The correct answer is option(D).

Explanation:

Distance travel by car in north of east = 20 miles

In a triangle ABC

Cos\theta =\frac{BC}{AC}

Cos 30^o=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{BC}{20}

BC=17.32

The east component of the car’s displacement to the nearest tenth of a mile 17.32 miles.

There is no exact match from the options.

How and why does the distance between 2 electrodes affect the rate of electrolysis? ...?
Rasek [7]
 <span>Nothing, in terms of the chemistry. 

The distance between the electrodes affects the electrical resistance very slightly. Increasing the distance increases the resistance and reduces the current slightly, which reduces slightly the amount of product. 

For most practical applications, for electrolysis done in a beaker, varying the distance between the electrodes will make little difference. 

Increasing the concentration of the electrolyte will increase the current flow because there are more charged particles to carry charge, and increase the product yield.</span>

A 1.0-m-long copper wire of diameter 0.10 cm carries a current of 50.0 A to the east. Suppose we apply to this wire a magnetic f
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The classification of that same issue in question is characterized below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Current, I = 50.0 A

Diameter, d = 0.10 cm

(a)...

As we know,

⇒  Magnetic force = Copper wire's weight

So,

⇒   B\times I\times L=M\times g

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  B\times 50\times 1=7.037\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81

⇒  50B=69.03297\times 10^{-3}

⇒  B=1.38\times 10^{-3} \ T

(b)...

As we know,

⇒  m=\delta\times L\times \frac{\pi \ d^2}{4}

⇒      =8960\times 1\times \frac{\pi \ (0.001)^2}{4}

⇒      =2240\times \pi \ 0.000001

⇒      =7.037\times 10^{-3} \ kg

Init. A
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

v = 1/3 m / s = 0.333 m / s

in the direction of the truck

Explanation:

The average speed is defined by the variation of the position between the time spent

           v = Δx / Δt

since the position is a vector we must add using vectors, we will assume that the displacement to the right is positive, the total displacement is

           Δx = 20 - 15 +20

           Δx = 25 m

therefore we calculate

         v = 25/75

         v = 1/3 m / s = 0.333 m / s

in the direction of the truck

A point charge with charge q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second point charge with charge q2 moves from the point (x1, 0
Scilla [17]

Answer:

W=kq_1q_2(\dfrac{1}{x_1}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2}})

Explanation:

Position of charge q₁ is (0,0)

Position of charge q₂ is (x₁,0)

So, the electric potential energy between the charges is given by :

U_1=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{x_1}

Now the position of charge q₂ has been changes from (x₁,0) to (x₂,y₂). Now, electric potential energy between the charges is :

U_2=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2}}

We know form the work energy theorem that, the change in potential energy is equal to the work done. Mathematically, it is given by :

W=-\Delta U

W=-(U_2-U_1)

W=(U_1-U_2)

W=(k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{x_1}-k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2}})

W=kq_1q_2(\dfrac{1}{x_1}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2}})

Hence, the work done by the electrostatic force on the moving point charge is kq_1q_2(\dfrac{1}{x_1}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x_2^2+y_2^2}}). Hence, this is the required solution.
