A biker travels at an average speed of 18 km/hr along a 0.30 km straight segment of a bike path. How much time (in hours) does t

he biker take to travel this segment?

Answer: 0.016 h

Explanation:

\text{Average speed} = \frac{\text {Total Distance}}{\text {total time taken}}

It is given that, biker has an average speed = 18 km/h

Total distance traveled = 0.30 km

Therefore, time taken by biker to travel this distance:

\Rightarrow \text{total time taken} = \frac{0.30 km}{18 km/h}=0.016 h

Thus, the biker takes 0.016 hours to travel the segment of 0.30 km at an average speed of 18 km/h.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Part a)

E = 8436.7 N/C

Part b)

E = 8436.7 N/C

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

\sigma = \frac{Q}{A}

Q = -3.8 nC

A = \pi(0.09)^2

A = 0.025 m^2

\sigma = \frac{-3.8\times 10^{-9}}{0.025}

\sigma = -1.5 \times 10^{-7} C/m^2

now the electric field is given as

E = \frac{-1.5 \times 10^{-7}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}

E = 8436.7 N/C

Part b)

Now since the electric field is required at same distance on other side

so the field will remain same on other side of the plate

E = 8436.7 N/C

A rigid, 2.50 L bottle contains 0.458 mol He. The pressure of the gas inside the bottle is 1.83 atm. If 0.713 mol Ar is added to
stellarik [79]
<span>These are inert gases, so we can assume they don't react with one another. Because the two gases are also subject to all the same conditions, we can pretend there's only "one" gas, of which we have 0.458+0.713=1.171 moles total. Now we can use PV=nRT to solve for what we want.

The initial temperature and the change in temperature. You can find the initial temperature easily using PV=nRT and the information provided in the question (before Ar is added) and solving for T.

You can use PV=nRT again after Ar is added to solve for T, which will give you the final temperature. The difference between the initial and final temperatures is the change. When you're solving just be careful with the units!
 
SIDE NOTE: If you want to solve for change in temperature right away, you can do it in one step. Rearrange both PV=nRT equations to solve for T, then subtract the first (initial, i) from the second (final, f):

PiVi=niRTi --> Ti=(PiVi)/(niR)
 
PfVf=nfRTf --> Tf=(PfVf)/(nfR)

ΔT=Tf-Ti=(PfVf)/(nfR)-(PiVi)/(niR)=(V/R)(Pf/nf-Pi/ni)

In that last step I just made it easier by factoring out the V/R since V and R are the same for the initial and final conditions.</span>

A civil engineer wishes to redesign the curved roadway in the example What is the Maximum Speed of the Car? in such a way that a
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

24.3 degrees

Explanation:

A car traveling in circular motion at linear speed v = 12.8 m/s around a circle of radius r = 37 m is subjected to a centripetal acceleration:

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{12.8^2}{37} = 4.43 m/s^2

Let α be the banked angle, as α > 0, the outward centripetal acceleration vector is split into 2 components, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the road. The one that is parallel has a magnitude of 4.43cosα and is the one that would make the car slip.

Similarly, gravitational acceleration g is split into 2 component, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the road surface. The one that is parallel has a magnitude of gsinα and is the one that keeps the car from slipping outward.

So gsin\alpha = 4.43cos\alpha

\frac{sin\alpha}{cos\alpha} = \frac{4.43}{g} = \frac{4.43}{9.81} = 0.451

tan\alpha = 0.451

\alpha = tan^{-1}0.451 = 0.424 rad = 0.424*180/\pi \approx 24.3^0

Substance X is placed in a container with substance Y. Both substances are fluids. Substance X initially sinks to the bottom of
Brut [27]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is a process in which heat transfers from a hotter substance to a colder substance.

As a result, the substance which is less dense will rise and the more denser substance will sink due to the influence of gravity.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given situation substance X will rise due to convection.

MArishka [77]

Complete Question:

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bury itself just below the surface. What would have to be the mass of this asteroid, in terms of the earth’s mass M, for the day to become 25.0% longer than it presently is as a result of the collision? Assume that the asteroid is very small compared to the earth and that the earth is uniform throughout.

Answer:

m = 0.001 M
