A sprinter accelerates from rest to a velocity of 12m/s in the first 6 seconds of the 100 meter dash .

Physics
1 answer:
GREYUIT [131]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) 36 m

b) 64 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/2

v = 12 m/s

t = 6 s

Find: Δx

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

Δx = ½ (12 m/s + 0 m/s) (6 s)

Δx = 36 m

The track is 100 m, so the sprinter still has to run another 64 m.

A 225 kg red bumper car is moving at 3.0 m/s. It hits a stationary 180 kg blue bumper car. The red and blue bumper cars combine
Alex Ar [27]

Given


m1(mass of red bumper): 225 Kg


m2 (mass of blue bumper): 180 Kg


m3(mass of green bumper):150 Kg


v1 (velocity of red bumper): 3.0 m/s


v2 (final velocity of the combined bumpers): ?




The law of conservation of momentum states that when two bodies collide with each other, the momentum of the two bodies before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision. This can be mathemetaically represented as below:


Pa= Pb


Where Pa is the momentum before collision and Pb is the momentum after collision.


Now applying this law for the above problem we get


Momentum before collision= momentum after collision.


Momentum before collision = (m1+m2) x v1 =(225+180)x 3 = 1215 Kgm/s


Momentum after collision = (m1+m2+m3) x v2 =(225+180+150)x v2

=555v2

Now we know that Momentum before collision= momentum after collision.


Hence we get


1215 = 555 v2


v2 = 2.188 m/s


Hence the velocity of the combined bumper cars is 2.188 m/s

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.

A toroidal solenoid has an inner radius of 12.0 cm and an outer radius of 15.0 cm . It carries a current of 1.50 A . Part A How
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The number of turns is  N  = 1750 \ turns

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The inner radius is r_i =  12.0 \  cm  =  0.12 \  m

   The outer radius is  r_o =  15.0 \  cm  =  0.15 \  m

   The current it carries is I =  1.50 \  A

    The magnetic field is  B  =   3.75 mT = 3.75 *10^{-3} \  T

   The distance from the center is d =  14.0 \ cm  =  0.14 \  m

Generally the number of turns is mathematically represented as

    N  =  \frac{2 *  \pi  * d  *  B}{ \mu_o *  r_o }

Generally  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value  

    \mu_o  =  4\pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2

So

  N  =  \frac{2 *  3.142   * 0.14 *  3.75 *10^{-3} }{ 4\pi * 10^{-7}  * 0.15  }

  N  = 1750 \ turns

Match each label to the boundary it describes. convergent boundary new crust forms transform boundary crust submerges into the m
Paraphin [41]

The answers would be:

CONVERGENT boundary - Crust submerges into the mantle

TRANSFORM boundary - neither forms nor submerges

DIVERGENT boundary - new crust forms

If you'd like to know more about the different boundaries, read on:

Convergent boundaries occur when two plates move TOWARDS each other. The event where crust submerges into the mantle is called <em><u>subduction</u></em> and this occurs when an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide. The oceanic plate is more dense and thinner than the continental plate, so it slides under it.

Transform boundaries occur when two plates slide against each other. They move slide side by side, so nothing is formed nor do they go under each other. Although, this type of boundaries create strong earthquakes.

Lastly, divergent boundaries occur when two plates move apart. The separation creates a way for magma to come up. New crust is formed when the magma that seeps out is cooled by its cooler surroundings. This is observed in the mid oceanic ridge.

State two advantages of a lead-acid accumulator over a leclanche cell​
aniked [119]

Answer:

They are rechargeable

They have a longer life span

They are reusable

Explanation:

Lead acid accumulators and leclanche cells are types of electrochemical cells.

Leclanche cells are primary cells. Primary cells produce chemical reactions through which the electric current generated is irreversible.

Lead Acid Accumulators are secondary cells in which electric current generated is reversible.

This makes lead acid accumulators reusable, more durable and they have a longer life span.
