How much longer (percentage) is a one-mile race than a 1500-m race (""the metric mile"")?

Physics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

1 m = 39.37 in = 3.281 ft

1500 m * 3.281 ft / m = 4922 ft

(5280 - 4922) / 4922 = .073 = 7.3 %

(Note - 1600 m often replaces the 1 mi run)

Two long, parallel wires are attracted to each other by a force per unit length of 350 µN/m. One wire carries a current of 22.5
pishuonlain [190]

Answer

given,

force per unit length = 350 µN/m

current, I = 22.5 A

y = y = 0.420 m

\dfrac{F}{L}= \dfrac{KI_1I_2}{d}

I_2 = \dfrac{F}{L}\dfrac{d}{KI_1}

I_2 = 350\times 10^{-6}\times \dfrac{0.42}{2 \times 10^{-7}\times 22.5}

    I₂ = 32.67 A

distance where the magnetic field is zero

\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 32.67}{2\pi y_1}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 22.5}{2\pi (0.42-y_1)}

y_1 = 0.248\ m

there the distance at which the magnetic field is zero in the two wire is at 0.248 m.

A 0.5-kilogram apple falls from a height of 2 meters to 1.50 meters. Ignoring frictional effects, what is the kinetic energy of
spin [16.1K]

The  final kinetic energy of the ball is 2.45 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In absence of frictional effect, the mechanical energy of the apple must be conserved during the fall. So we can write:

U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f

where :

U_i is the initial potential energy, at the top

K_i is the initial kinetic energy, at the top

U_f is the final potential energy, at the bottom

K_f is the final kinetic energy, at the bottom

By explicing the potential energy, we can rewrite the equation as:

mgh_i + K_i = mgh_f + K_f

where:

m = 0.5 kg is the mass of the apple

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h_i = 2 m is the initial height

h_f=1.50 m is the final height

The initial kinetic energy is zero, since the ball starts from rest:

K_i = 0

Therefore we can solve the equation for K_f, the final kinetic energy of the ball:

K_f = mg(h_i-h_f)=(0.5)(9.8)(2-1.50)=2.45 J

Scientific knowledge is generally considered to have a positive effect on society. In which situation would scientific knowledge
attashe74 [19]
Scientific knowledge itself cannot have a positive or negative impact on society per se. What can have a negative or positive impact is how this knowledge is being used. 

While we all enjoy a beter life due to advancements in medicine and technology for example, this was because people decided they would put certain scientific discoveries into practice and spread them among the people.

The same thing can also be said for negative scientific discoveries. While energy produced in atomic power plants per se isn't harmful, when making an atomic bomb out of it, it can be disastrous. It was the intention of doing something evil with it that might have had a negative impact on society, not the knowledge itself.
