A train leaves the train station at noon and travels at a constant speed of vt = 50 mi/hr on a straight track. 2 hr later, a car
asambeis [7]

Answer:

350 miles

Explanation:

When the car starts 2 hours later, the train would have a head start of

50 * 2 = 100 miles

The speed of the car relative to the train is

70 - 50 = 20 mi/hr

For the car to catch up with the train, it must cover the 100 miles difference at the rate of 20mi/hr. So the time it would need to cover this difference is

100 / 20 = 5 hours

After 5 hours, the car would have traveled a distance of

5 * 70 = 350 miles which is also the distance from the station to where the car catches up

A planet has been observed orbiting a nearby star. This star has a mass of 3.5 solar masses, and the planet is 4.2 AU from the s
kondaur [170]

Answer:

4.6 years

Explanation:

This is solved using Kepler's third law which says:

T^2=\frac{4\pi ^2}{GM} a^2

Where

T = Orbital period of the planet (in seconds)

a = Distance from the star (in meters)

G = Gravitational constant

M = Mass of the parent star (in kg)

From the information given

M = 3.5M_{sun} = 6.96*10^{30} kg

a=4.2AU = 6.28*10^{11} meters

G = 6.67*10^{-11}m^3kg^{-1}s^{-2}

We put this into Kepler's law and get:

T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi ^2}{6.67*10^{-11}*6.96*10^{30}} (6.28*10^{11})^3}=145,128,196 seconds.

This when converted to years is 4.6 years.

Titus drives his jetski a distance of 1000 meters in 7.045 seconds. How fast was he moving in meters per second? How fast was he
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a) v = 141.9 m/s

b) v = 317.4 miles/h

Explanation:

a) How fast was he moving in meters per second?

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{1000 m}{7.045 s} = 141.9 m/s

Hence, the jet ski is moving at 141.9 meters per second.

b) How fast was he moving in miles per hour?

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{1000 m}{7.045 s} = 141.9 m/s*\frac{3600 s}{1 h}*\frac{1 mile}{1609.34 m} = 317.4 miles/h      

Therefore, the jet ski is moving at 317.4 miles per hour.

I hope it helps you!

A depiction of a famous scientific experiment is given. Consider how the beam changes when the magnet is off compared to when th
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of

v = E / B

Explanation:

After reading this long statement we can extract the data to work on the problem.

* They indicate that when the beam passes through the plates it deviates towards the positive plate, so the beam must be negative electrons.

* Now indicates that the electric field and the magnetic field are contracted and that the beam passes without deviating, so the electric and magnetic forces must be balanced

           F_{e} =  F_{m}

           q E = qv B

           v = E / B

this configuration is called speed selector

They ask us what type of beam was used.

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of v = E / B
