Which of these properties of an object best quantifies its inertia: velocity, acceleration, volume, mass, or temperature?

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

Inertia is essentially an object's tendency to stay in motion or at rest unless it is forced to do otherwise (pun intended). It only makes sense to me that mass would best quantify an object's inertia, because an object with more mass would be harder to move and/or stop from moving.

An LR circuit contains an ideal 60-V battery, a 42-H inductor having no resistance, a 24-ΩΩ resistor, and a switch S, all in ser
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.6 s

Explanation:

To find the time in which the potential difference of the inductor reaches 24V you use the following formula:

V_L=V_oe^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}

V_o: initial voltage = 60V

R: resistance = 24-Ω

L: inductance = 42H

V_L: final voltage = 24 V

You first use properties of the logarithms to get time t, next, replace the values of the parameter:

\frac{V_L}{V_o}=e^{-\frac{Rt}{L}}\\\\ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})=-\frac{Rt}{L}\\\\t=-\frac{L}{R}ln(\frac{V_L}{V_o})\\\\t=-\frac{42H}{24\Omega}ln(\frac{24V}{60V})=1.6s

hence, after 1.6s the inductor will have a potential difference of 24V

The 8 kg block is then released and accelerates to the right, toward the 2 kg block. The surface is rough and the coefficient of
natita [175]

Answer:

3.258 m/s

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 263 N/m (Assumed, as it is not given)

x = Displacement of spring = 0.7 m (Assumed, as it is not given)

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.4

Energy stored in spring is given by

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 263\times 0.7^2\\\Rightarrow U=64.435\ J

As the energy in the system is conserved we have

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=U-\mu mgx\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\dfrac{U-\mu mgx}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\dfrac{64.435-0.4\times 8\times 9.81\times 0.7}{8}}\\\Rightarrow v=3.258\ m/s

The speed of the 8 kg block just before collision is 3.258 m/s

Velocity = (displacement) / (time)

Displacement = straight-line distance between start-point and end-point

If you stop at the same point you started from, then
your displacement for the trip is zero, and your average
velocity is also zero.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

A) He finds the same value of q / m for different materials , B)      y = ½ (q / m) E L² / v₀ₓ² , C) v = E / B , D)   B = 2.13 10⁻⁶ T, E) For the first part I have two off-center points., For the second part I can center one point but the other is off center

Therefore the third statement is correct

Explanation:

Part A

Thomson's experiments are the first proof that the atoms that until now were considered indivisible were constituted by different elements, in these experiments Thomson himself the ratio q / m of several cathodes and always found the same value, which allowed to establish that In atoms there are two types of particles, some of which are mobile and others are still.

When examining his statements the correct one is: He finds the same value of q / m for different materials

Part B

For this part let's use Newton's second law

        F = ma

        q E = m a

        a = q / m E

We use the kinematic relationship

          y = voy t - ½ to t²

          x = v₀ₓ t

The initial vertical velocity of electrons is zero

           y = ½ a (x / v₀ₓ)²

We replace

           y = ½ (q / m) E L² / v₀ₓ²

Part C

If there is no deflection, the electric and magnetic forces are the same and in the opposite direction

         Fm = Fe

         q v B = q E

          v = E / B

Part D

       

        We replace

        y = ½ (q / m) E L² / (E / B)²

         y = ½ (q / m) L² B² / E

If we do not want any deflection the magnetic field has to return the electrons the amount that they lower y = -4.12 cm

      -4.12 10⁻² = ½ q / m 0.12² B² / 1.1 10³

       -16.97 10⁻⁴ = 6.54 10⁻³ B² q / m

      B² = -2.59 10⁻¹ q / m

      q / m = -1.758 10¹¹ C/ kg

      B = √ 0.259 1.758 10¹¹ = √ 4.55 10⁻¹²

      B = 2.13 10⁻⁶ T

Part E

As the charge that the two particles is different

For the first part I have two off-center points.

For the second part I can center one point but the other is off center

Therefore the third statement is correct

An experiment consists of determining the speed of automobiles on a highway by the use of radar equipment. The random variable i
faust18 [17]

The random variable in this experiment is a Continuous random variable.

Option D

<u>Explanation</u>:

The continuous random variable is random variable where the data can take infinite variables. For example random variable is taken for measuring "speed of automobiles" on the highways. The radar instrument depicts time taken by automobile in particular what speed. They are the generalization of discrete random variables not the real numbers as a random data is created. It gives infinite sets of all possible outcomes. It is obvious that outcomes of the instrument depend on some "physical variables" those are not predictable as depends on the situation.
