Explanation:

It represents the direction of flow of positive charge but is treated as a scalar quantity because current follows the laws of scalar addition and not the laws of vector addition. The angle between the wires carrying current does not affect the total current in the circuit.

Does time stand still in space

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

It's mostly known that time stops moving in a black hole, as for space, its known the spacetime changes over time. A black hole in such a state is essentially stationary. So for my research, time does not stand still in space unless were taking about black holes.

a 700k/g race car slowed down from 30m/s to 15m/s what is the impulse and what was the average force applied by the brakes

posledela

So impulse is a change in momentum.

Mass*(final velocity - initial velocity)

I dont think you will be able to find the average force with the given info because you need to know the time it takes for the car to slow down.

A train traveled from Station A to Station B at an average speed of 80 kilometers per hour and then from Station B to Station C

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

75 kmh⁻¹

Explanation:

$v_{ab}$ = Speed of train from station A to station B = 80 kmh⁻¹

$d_{ab}$ = distance traveled from station A to station B

$t_{ab}$ = time of travel between station A to station B

we know that

$Time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

$t_{ab} = \frac{d_{ab}}{v_{ab}} = \frac{d_{ab}}{80}$

$d_{bc}$ = distance traveled from station B to station C

$v_{bc}$ = Speed of train from station B to station C = 60 kmh⁻¹

$t_{bc} = \frac{d_{bc}}{v_{bc}} = \frac{d_{bc}}{60}$

Total distance traveled is given as

$d = d_{ab} + d_{bc}$

Total time of travel is given as

$t = t_{ab} + t_{bc}$

Average speed is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{t} \\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{(\frac{d_{ab}}{80} ) + (\frac{d_{bc}}{60} ) }$

Given that :

$d_{ab} = 4 d_{bc}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{4 d_{bc} + d_{bc}}{(\frac{4 d_{bc}}{80} ) + (\frac{d_{bc}}{60} ) }\\v_{avg} = \frac{4 + 1}{(\frac{4 }{80} ) + (\frac{1}{60} ) }\\v_{avg} = 75 kmh^{-1}$

$v_{ab}$ = Speed of train from station A to station B = 80 kmh⁻¹

$t_{ab}$ = time of travel between station A to station B

$d_{ab}$ = distance traveled from station A to station B

we know that

$distance = (speed) (time)$

$d_{ab} = v_{ab} t_{ab}\\d_{ab} = 80 t_{ab}$

$d_{bc}$ = distance traveled from station B to station C

$v_{bc}$ = Speed of train from station B to station C = 60 kmh⁻¹

$t_{bc}$ = time of travel for train from station B to station C

we know that

$distance = (speed) (time)$

$d_{bc} = v_{bc} t_{bc}\\d_{bc} = 60 t_{bc}$

Total distance traveled is given as

$d = d_{ab} + d_{bc}\\d = 80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}$

Total time of travel is given as

$t = t_{ab} + t_{bc}$

Average speed is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{t} \\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}$

Given that :

$t_{ab} = 3 t_{bc}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{80 (3) t_{bc} + 60 t_{bc}}{(3) t_{bc} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{(300) t_{bc}}{(4) t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = 75 kmh^{-1}$
