A car is traveling along a straight road at a velocity of 30m/s when its engine cuts off. For the next ten seconds, the car slow

s down, and its average acceleration is a₁. For the next five seconds, the car slows down further, and its average acceleration is a₂. The ratio of the average acceleration values is a₁/a₂=1.5. Find the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval.

The velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

<h3>Initial velocity of the car</h3>

v = u + at

after 10 seconds;

v = 30 + 10a₁ --(1)

after 5 seconds

v₂ = v + 5a₂ ---- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together

v₂ = 30 + 10a₁ + 5a₂

but a₁/a₂=1.5

a₁ = 1.5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 10(1.5a₂) + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 15a₂ + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 20a₂

from equation (2), v₂ = v + 5a₂

v + 5a₂ = 30 + 20a₂

v = 15a₂ + 30

Thus, the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

An 18.5-cm-diameter loop of wire is initially oriented perpendicular to a 1.5-T magnetic field. The loop is rotated so that its

Answer:

The average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of loop $r = \frac{d}{2} = 9.25 \times 10^{-2}$ m

Magnetic field $B = 1.5$ T

Change in time $\Delta t = 0.20$ sec

According to the faraday's law,

Induced emf is given by

$\epsilon = -\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

Where $\phi =$ magnetic flux

$\phi = BA\cos0$ ( here $\theta = 0$ )

Where $A = \pi r^{2}$

We neglect minus sign because it's shows lenz law

$\epsilon = \frac{B \pi r^{2} }{\Delta t}$

$\epsilon = \frac{1.5 \times 3.14 \times (9.25 \times 10^{-2} )^{2} }{0.20}$

$\epsilon = 0.20$ V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

topjm [15]

Answer:

$\Delta U = \frac{Qq}{4\pi\epsilon_0}(\frac{1}{r_2^2}-\frac{1}{r_1^2})$

Explanation:

The electrostatic potential energy is given by the following formula

$U = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Now, we will apply this formula to both cases:

$U_1 = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Qq}{r_1^2}\\U_2 = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{Qq}{r_2^2}$

So, the change in the potential energy is

$\Delta U = U_2 - U_1 = \frac{Qq}{4\pi\epsilon_0}(\frac{1}{r_2^2}-\frac{1}{r_1^2})$

The average distance of the planet mercury from the sun is 0.39 times the average distance of the earth from the sun. How long i

Stels [109]

Answer:

$T_1=0.24y$

Explanation:

Using Kepler's third law, we can relate the orbital periods of the planets and their average distances from the Sun, as follows:

$(\frac{T_1}{T_2})^2=(\frac{D_1}{D_2})^3$

Where $T_1$ and $T_2$ are the orbital periods of Mercury and Earth respectively. We have $D_1=0.39D_2$ and $T_2=1y$ . Replacing this and solving for

$T_1^2=T_2^2(\frac{D_1}{D_2})^3\\T_1^2=(1y)^2(\frac{0.39D_2}{D_2})^3\\T_1^2=1y^2(0.39)^3\\T_1^2=0.059319y^2\\T_1=0.24y$
