Natalka [10]1 year ago

Explanation:

a) I = V / R

1.70 = 115 / R

R = 115 / 1.70

R = 67.647

R = 67.65 ohms

Therefore, equivalent resistance is 67.65 ohms

b) Equivalent resistance of circuit from above sum is 67.65 ohms

Given resistance of each bulb is 1.50 ohms

Number bulbs = Equivalent resistance / Resistance of each bulb

= 67.65 / 1.50

= 45

Answer:

a) 42 m/s, positive direction (to the east), b) 42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

Explanation:

a) Let consider that Car A is moving at positive direction. Then, the relative velocity of Car A as seen by the driver of Car B is:

$\vec v_{A/B} = \vec v_{A} - \vec v_{B}\\\vec v_{A/B} = 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i + 31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{A/B} = 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i$

42 m/s, positive direction (to the east).

b) The relative velocity of Car B as seen by the drive of Car A is:

$\vec v_{B/A} = \vec v_{B} - \vec v_{A}\\\vec v_{B/A} = -31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i - 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{B/A} = - 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i$

42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The acceleration at the astronaut's head decreases.

Explanation:

Since the centripetal acceleration equals acceleration due to gravity,

a = g = GM/R². since a changes infinitesimally from his foot to his head, we differentiate a with respect to r to get da/dr = -2GM/R³.

So, da, the change in acceleration = -2GMdR/R³ = -2gdR/R = -2 × 9.8/6.4 × 10⁶ m = -3.0625 × 10⁻⁶dR m/s².

Since dR = height of astronaut = 1.80 m, da = -3.0625 × 10⁻⁶ × 1.8 = -5.5125 × 10⁻⁶ m/s².

So the acceleration at the astronaut's head is g + da = 9.8 - 0.0000055125 = 9.7999944875 m/s².

So the acceleration at the astronaut's head decreases.
