A race car is one lap behind the lead race car when the lead car has 44 laps to go in a race. If the speed of the lead car is 55

.9 m/s, what must be the average speed of the second car to catch the lead car just before the end of the race (i.e., right at the finish line)? Assume 1 lap is 1.34 km. Answer in units of m/s

Answer:

Speed of second car will be 57.17 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given lead car travels = 44 laps

1 laps = 1.34 km = 1340 m

So total distance = 1340×44 = 58960 m

Speed of lead car = 55.9 m/sec

We know that time=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{58960}{55.9}=1054.74sec

As the second car is 1 lap behind so distance traveled by second car = 45×1340 = 60300 m

So speed of second car will be speed=\frac{distance}{time }=\frac{60300}{1054.74}=57.17m/sec

Complete Question

A radio technician measures the frequency of an AM radio transmitter. The frequency is 14603 kHz . What is the frequency in megahertz? Write your answer as a decimal.

Answer:

The value is  x =  14.6 \  MHz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  frequency is  f =  14603  \  kHz = 14603 *1000 = 14603000 \ Hz

Generally  

       1 Hz \to  1.0 *10^{-6} \  MHz

       14603000 \ Hz  \to x MHz

=>   x =  \frac{14603000 *  1.0*10^{-6}}{1 }

=>    x =  14.6 \  MHz

65. A length of wire is bent into a closed loop and a magnet is plunged into it, inducing a voltage and, consequently, a current
natulia [17]

Answer:

Resistance of the second wire is twice the first wire.

Explanation:

Let us first see the formula of resistance;

R = pxL/A

Here L is the lenght of the wire, A the area and p is the resistivity of wire.

As we are given that the length of second wire is double than that of the first wire, hence the resistance of second wire would be double.

Since we have two loop in second case, inducing double voltage but as resistance is doubled so the current would remain same according to ohms law

I = V/R

What factor might be contributing to climate change
kirza4 [7]

Geological records stretching back millions of years indicate a number of large variations in Earth’s past climate. These have been caused by many natural factors, including changes in the sun, volcanoes, Earth’s orbit and CO2 levels.

However, comprehensive assessment by scientists shows that it is extremely likely that human activity has been the dominant cause of warming since the mid-20th Century.
