The velocity of a 1.3 kg block sliding down a frictionless inclined plane is found to be 1.26 m/s. 1.10 s later, it has a veloci

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

$\theta = 25.3^\circ$

Explanation:

The acceleration of the block can be found by the kinematics equations:

$v = v_0 + at\\5.88 = 1.26 + a(1.1)\\a = 4.2~m/s^2$

Since the plane is frictionless, the only force acting on the block along the motion of the block is its weight.

$F = mg\sin(\theta) = ma\\g\sin(\theta) = a\\(9.8)\sin(\theta) = 4.2\\\theta = 25.3^\circ$

If the distance d (in meters) traveled by an object in time t (in seconds) is given by the formula d=a+bt2, the si units of a an

ss7ja [257]

Distance , d = a+b $t^2$

The unit of d is in meter and t is in seconds.

So the unit of a a must be meter.

Now we have unit of b $t^2$ is meter.

So unit of b* $second^2$ = meter

Unit of b = meter/ $second^2$

So unit of a = m and unit of b = m/ $s^2$ .

A convex thin lens with refractive index of 1.50 has a focal length of 30cm in air. When immersed in a certain transparent liqui

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

$n_l = 1.97$

Explanation:

given data:

refractive index of lens 1.50

focal length in air is 30 cm

focal length in water is -188 cm

Focal length of lens is given as

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_2 -n_1}{n_1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2} \right ]$

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{air}}{n_{air}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2} \right ]$

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -1}{1} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2} \right ]$

focal length of lens in liquid is

$\frac{1}{f} =\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}} * \left [\frac{1}{r1} -\frac{1}{r2} \right ]$

$=\frac{n_{g} -n_{l}}{n_{l}} [\frac{1}{(n_{g} - 1) f}$

rearrange fro $n_l$

$n_l = \frac{n_g f_l}{f_l+f(n_g-1)}$

$n_l = \frac{1.50*(-188)}{-188 + 30(1.50 -1)}$

$n_l = 1.97$

At what time of year is the intensity of solar radiation striking each of earth's hemispheres weakest?

bagirrra123 [75]

<span>During winter for a given hemisphere, solar radiation reaches the lowest period of its annual cycle due to the tilt of the earth on its axis. As the earth rotates around the sun, this tilt occludes a portion of the energy released by the sun as it diffuses in the atmosphere.</span>

What power (in kW) is supplied to the starter motor of a large truck that draws 260 A of current from a 25.5 V battery hookup

joja [24]

Answer:

P = 6.63 kW

Explanation:

Given that,

Current, I = 260 A

Voltage of the battery, V = 25.5 V

We need to find the power supplied to the starter motor. We know that,

P = VI

Put all the values,

P = 25.5 × 260

P = 6630 W

P = 6.63 kW

So, the power supplied to the motor is 6.63 kW.
