We know that speed equals distance between time. Therefore to find the distance we have that d = V * t. Substituting the values d = (72 Km / h) * (1h / 3600s) * (4.0 s) = 0.08Km.Therefore during this inattentive period traveled a distance of 0.08Km

Which statement about work and power correctly describes an automobile race?
miv72 [106K]
Well this question looks like it makes some assumptions.  So assuming that both cars have the same mass and experience the same wind resistance regardless of speed and same internal frictions, then we could say "The car that finishes last has the lowest power".  The reason is that for a given race the cars must overcome losses associated with motion.  Since they all travel the same distance, the amount of work will be the same for both.  This is because work is force times distance.  If the force applied is the same in both cases (identical cars with constant wind resistance) and the distance is the same for both (a fair race track) then W=F·d will be the same.
Power, however, is the work done divided by the time over which it is done.  So for a slower car, time t will be larger.  The power ratio W/t will be smaller for the longer time (slower car).

Mateo drew the field lines around the ends of two bar magnets but forgot to label the direction of the lines with arrows. At lef
Sladkaya [172]

Question:

Mateo drew the field lines around the ends of two bar magnets but forgot to label the direction of the lines with arrows. In which direction should an arrow at position 1 point?

left

right

up

down

Answer:

The correct answer is

Left

Explanation:

Magnetic circuits describe the path of a magnetic flux. In the same way electricity follows a complete closed circuit, the path of a magnetic flux is also a complete and closed circuit which leaves from the N pole, migrates through the air  and reenters the magnet through the S pole through which it passes back into the magnet to come to the N pole again.

As such the magnetic field lines emanate from the N pole which is on he right to the S pole which is on the left. Hence the arrow should point in the left direction.

The following table lists the work functions of a few common metals, measured in electron volts. Metal Φ(eV) Cesium 1.9 Potassiu
Citrus2011 [14]

A. Lithium

The equation for the photoelectric effect is:

E=\phi + K

where

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} is the energy of the incident light, with h being the Planck constant, c being the speed of light, and \lambda being the wavelength

\phi is the work function of the metal (the minimum energy needed to extract one photoelectron from the surface of the metal)

K is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectron

In this problem, we have

\lambda=190 nm=1.9\cdot 10^{-7}m, so the energy of the incident light is

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1.9\cdot 10^{-7} m}=1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J

Converting in electronvolts,

E=\frac{1.05\cdot 10^{-18}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=6.5 eV

Since the electrons are emitted from the surface with a maximum kinetic energy of

K = 4.0 eV

The work function of this metal is

\phi = E-K=6.5 eV-4.0 eV=2.5 eV

So, the metal is Lithium.

B. cesium, potassium, sodium

The wavelength of green light is

\lambda=510 nm=5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m

So its energy is

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5.1\cdot 10^{-7} m}=3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J

Converting in electronvolts,

E=\frac{3.9\cdot 10^{-19}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2.4 eV

So, all the metals that have work function smaller than this value will be able to emit photoelectrons, so:

Cesium

Potassium

Sodium

C. 4.9 eV

In this case, we have

- Copper work function: \phi = 4.5 eV

- Maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons: K = 2.7 eV

So, the energy of the incident light is

E=\phi+K=4.5 eV+2.7 eV=7.2 eV

Then the copper is replaced with sodium, which has work function of

\phi = 2.3 eV

So, if the same light shine on sodium, then the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons will be

K=E-\phi = 7.2 eV-2.3 eV=4.9 eV

Suppose we replace the mass in the video with one that is four times heavier. How far from the free end must we place the pivot
Llana [10]

We must place the pivot to keep the meter stick in balance at 90 cm (10 cm from the weight) from the free end.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

In initial stage, the meter stick’s mass and mass hanged in meter stick at one end are same. Refer figure 1, the mater stick’s weight acts at the stick’s mid-point.

If in case, the meter stick is to be at balanced form, then the acting torques sum would be zero. So,

                  m \times g \times(x)+((m \times g)(x-50 \mathrm{cm}))=0

                  (m \times g \times x)-(50 \times m \times g)+(m \times g \times x)=0

Taking out ‘mg’ as common and we get

                  2 x-50=0

                  2 x=50

                  x=\frac{50}{2}=25 \mathrm{cm}

Hence, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of,

                 x^{\prime}=100 \mathrm{cm}-25 \mathrm{cm}=75 \mathrm{cm}

So, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of 75 cm at the free end

Now, replace mass with another mass. i.e., four times the initial mass (as given)

If in case, the meter stick is to be at balanced form, then the acting torques sum would be zero. So,

                   4 m g(x)+(m g)(x-50 c m)=0

                   4 m g x+m g x-50 m g=0

Taking out ‘mg’ as common and we get

                   5 x=50

                   x=\frac{50}{5}=10 \mathrm{cm}

Hence, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of,

                   x^{\prime}=100 \mathrm{cm}-10 \mathrm{cm}=10 \mathrm{cm}

So, the stick should be pivoted at a distance of 10 cm from the free end.

Therefore, the option B is correct 90 cm (10 cm from the weight).

A packing crate with mass 80.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. At t = 0 a net horizontal force in the +x-di
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Final speed of the crate is 15 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that constant force F = 80 N is applied on the object for t = 12 s

Now we can use definition of force to find the speed after t = 12 s

F . t = m(v_f - v_i)

so here we know that object is at rest initially so we have

80 (12) = 80( v_f - 0)

v_f = 12 m/s

Now for next 6 s the force decreases to ZERO linearly

so we can write the force equation as

F = 80 - \frac{40}{3} t

now again by same equation we have

\int F .dt = m(v_f - v_i)

\int (80 - (40/3)t) dt = 80(v_f - 12)

80 t - \frac{40t^2}{6} = 80(v_f - 12)

put t = 6 s

480 - 240 = 80(v_f - 12)

v_f = 12 + 3

v_f = 15 m/s
