Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. the eastbound train travels at 95 miles per

hour. the westbound train travels at 75 miles per hour. how long will it take for the two trains to be 272 miles apart? do not do any rounding.

The east bound train travels at a speed of 95 mile per hour and the west bound train at 75 miles per hour.
Assuming eastbound train will cover distance x then the west bound train will cover distance 272-x .
Therefore, since time taken will be the same then; x/95 = (272-x)/75
          = 75x = 95 (272-x)
          = 75x = 25840 - 95x
          = 170 x= 25840
                     x = 152 miles
Thus time taken will either be x/95 or (272-x)/75
           = 152/95
           = 1.6 hours or 1 hour 36 minutes

A thin Nichrome wire connected to an ammeter surrounds a region of time-varying magnetic flux, and the ammeter reads 13 amperes.
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The current would be same in both situation.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current I = 13 A

Number of turns = 23

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of induced emf is

\epsilon=NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}

For N = 1

\epsilon=A\dfrac{dB}{dt}

We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current

i=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}

Put the value of emf

i=\dfrac{A\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{R}

Now, if the number of turn is 22 , then induced emf would be

\epsilon'=NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}

Then the current would be

i'=\dfrac{\epsilon'}{NR}

i'=\dfrac{NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{NR}

i'=\dfrac{A\dfrac{dB}{dt}}{R}

i'=i

Hence, The current would be same in both situation.

A car is accelerated from 40 m/s to 48 m/s in 6.5 seconds. What is the magnitude of the car’s
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

AVerage acceleration is the cjange in velocity with time

a = v-u/t

v is the final velocity = 48m/s

u is the initial velocity = 40m/s

t is the time = 6.5s

a = 48-40/6.5

a = 8/6.5

a = 1.23m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the car’s  average acceleration during this period is 1.23m/s²
