You are driving due north on i-81 to come to jmu with a speed of 10 m/s, suddenly you realize you forgot your book. You make a u

-turn to go home, pick it up and now after 20s you are driving south with a speed of 20 m/s. What is your displacement after 20s?

first we make a U turn and travel towards home in t = 20 s

so the distance of home from initial position is

$d_1 = v*t_1$

$d_1 = 10*20 = 200 m$

Now after picking up the book we travel back with speed 20 m/s

so again after t = 20 s the displacement is given as

$d_2 = v*t = 20*20 = 400 m$

so the net displacement is given as

$\vec d = \vec d_2 - \vec d_1$

$\vec d = 400 - 200 = 200 m$

so it will be displaced by total displacement 200 m

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

$R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}$

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

$\theta, 90 - \theta$

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree

Calculate the energy in the form of heat (in kJ) required to change 75.0 g of liquid water at 27.0 °C to ice at –20.0 °C. Assume

REY [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

mass, m = 75 g

$T_{1} = 0^{o}C$

$T_{2} = 27^{o}C$

Specific heat of water = 4.18

First, we will calculate the heat required for water is as follows.

q = $m C \times (T_{1} - T_{2})$

= $75 g \times 4.18 J/g^{o}C \times (0 - 27)^{o}C$

= 8464.5 J/mol

= 8.46 kJ ......... (1)

Also, it is given that $T_{3} = -20^{o}C$ = (20 + 273) K = 293 K and specific heat of ice is 2.108 kJ/kg K.

Now, we will calculate the heat of fusion as follows.

q = $mC \times (T_{3} - T_{1})$

= $0.075 kg \times 2.108 kJ/kg K \times (-293 - 0) K$

= -46.32 kJ ......... (2)

Now, adding both equations (1) and (2) as follows.

8.46 kJ - 46.32 kJ

= -37.86 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that energy in the form of heat (in kJ) required to change 75.0 g of liquid water at $27.0^{o}C$ to ice at $-20.0^{o}C$ is -37.86 kJ.

A 2.0 g metal cube and a 4.0 g metal cube are 6.0 cm apart, measured between their centers, on a horizontal surface. For both, t

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

a) t=10.2s

b) The 2g-cube moves first

Explanation:

Since the electric force is the same on both cubes and so is the coefficient of static friction, the first one to move will be the one with less mass.

So, on the 2g-cube the sum of forces are:

$\left \{ {{Ff-Fe=0} \atop {N-m*g=0}} \right.$

Replacing the friction on the first equation:

$\mu*m*g-Fe=0$ Thus $Fe=\mu*m*g=12.74*10^{-3}N$

The electric force is:

$Fe = \frac{K*q^2}{d^2}$ Solving for q:

q=71.44nC

This amount divided by the rate at which they are being charged:

t = 71.44nC / 7nC/s = 10.2s

Rasek [7]

Answer:

99.95%

Explanation:

A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.

A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.
