Which of the following is correct for speed?

Physics
1 answer:
Olin [163]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Speed is a "scalar" quantity

(C) is the correct answer

An object could travel at 10 m/s to some point and then return to the origin at 10 m/s for an average speed of 10 m/s, however it's displacement over that time would be zero for a net velocity of zero.

Some superconductors are capable of carrying a very large quantity of current. If the measured current is 1.00 ´ 105 A, how many
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The 6.25 \times 10^{23} electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.

Explanation:

Given :

Current I = 1 \times 10^{5} A

Charge of electron e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

Time t = 1 sec

From the formula of current,

Current is the number of charges flowing per unit time.

   I = \frac{ne}{t}

Where n = number of charges means in our case number of electrons

   n = \frac{It}{e}

   n = \frac{1 \times 10^{5} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19} }

   n = 6.25 \times 10^{23}

Therefore, 6.25 \times 10^{23} electrons are moving through the superconductor per second.

An object in the shape of a thin ring has radius a and mass M. A uniform sphere with mass m and radius R is placed with its cent
madreJ [45]

Answer:

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³

Explanation:

The force dF on the mass element dm of the ring due to the sphere of mass, m at a distance L from the mass element is

dF = GmdM/L²

Since the ring is symmetrical, the vertical components of this force cancel out leaving the horizontal components to add.

So, the horizontal components add from two symmetrically opposite mass elements dM,

Thus, the horizontal component of the force is

dF' = dFcosФ where Ф is the angle between L and the x axis

dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²

L² = a² + x² where a = radius of ring and x = distance of axis of ring from sphere.

L = √(a² + x²)

cosФ = x/L

dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²

dF' = GmdMx/L³

dF' = GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³

Integrating both sides we have

∫dF' = ∫GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³

∫dF' = Gm∫dMx/[√(a² + x²)]³    ∫dM = M

F = GmMx/[√(a² + x²)]³  

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³

So, the force due to the sphere of mass m is

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³
