Answer:

d. less than 20m/s

Explanation:

To the 2nd car, the first car is travelling 10m/s east and 10m/s south. So the total velocity of the first car with respect to the 2nd car is

[tex]\sqrt{10^2 + 10^2} =10\sqrt{2}=14.14m/s

As 14.14m/s is less than 20m/s. d is the correct selection for this question.

A uniform meterstick of mass 0.20 kg is pivoted at the 40 cm mark. where should one hang a mass of 0.50 kg to balance the stick?
Tcecarenko [31]
The weight of the meterstick is:
W=mg=0.20 kg \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 = 1.97 N
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance 
d_1 = 0.50 m - 0.40 m=0.10 m
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
M_w = W d_1 = (1.97 N)(0.10 m)=0.20 Nm

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
(mg) d_2 = 0.20 Nm
from which we find the value of d2:
d_2 =  \frac{0.20 Nm}{mg}= \frac{0.20 Nm}{(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.04 m

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.

A ball of mass 0.4 kg is initially at rest on the ground. It is kicked and leaves the kicker's foot with a speed of 5.0 m/s in a
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

the answer the correct  is 3

Explanation:

Let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

         I = Δp

         I = m v_{f} - m v₀

     

Let's calculate

         I = 0.4 5.0 - 0

         I = 2.0 N s

By Newton's law of action and reaction the force on the ball is equal to the force that the ball exerts on the foot, therefore the impulse on the foot of equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction

        I = 2.0 Ns with 60°

When reviewing the answer the correct  is 3

A spring driven dart gun propels a 10g dart. It is cocked by exerting a force of 20N over a distance of 5cm. With what speed wil
adelina 88 [10]
<span>14 m/s Assuming that all of the energy stored in the spring is transferred to dart, we have 2 equations to take into consideration. 1. How much energy is stored in the spring? 2. How fast will the dart travel with that amount of energy. As for the energy stored, that's a simple matter of multiplication. So: 20 N * 0.05 m = 1 Nm = 1 J For the second part, the energy of a moving object is expressed as KE = 0.5 mv^2 where KE = Kinetic energy m = mass v = velocity Since we now know the energy (in Joules) and mass of the dart, we can substitute the known values and solve for v. So KE = 0.5 mv^2 1 J = 0.5 0.010 kg * v^2 1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 0.005 kg * v^2 200 m^2/s^2 = v^2 14.14213562 m/s = v So the dart will have a velocity of 14 m/s after rounding to 2 significant figures.</span>

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

<h3>= 500nm</h3>

1 \:  angstrom = 1 \times  {10}^{ - 10} m

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

<h3>= 5 × 10^-7 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which of the following best describes a capacitor?
galben [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The capacitor is a component which has the ability to store energy in the form of an electrical charge  making a potential difference on those two metal plates

A capacitor consists of two or more parallel conductive (metal) plates. They are electrically seperated by an insulating material (ex: air, mica,ceramic etc.) which is called as Dielectric Layer

Due to this insulating layer, DC current can not flow through the capacitor.But it allows a voltage to be present across the plates in the form of an electrical charge.
