Answer:

t = 0.33h = 1200s

x = 18.33 km

Explanation:

If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:

car 1:

x=x_o+v_1t    (1)

xo = 10 km

v1 = 55km/h

car 2:

x'=v_2t    (2)

v2 = 85km/h

For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:

x=x'\\\\x_o+v_1t=v_2t\\\\(v_2-v_1)t=x_o\\\\t=\frac{x_o}{v_2-v_1}

t=\frac{10km}{85km/h-55km/h}=0.33h*\frac{3600s}{1h}=1200s

The position in which both cars coincides is:

x=(55km/h)(0.33h)=18.33km

What is the SI unit for intensity?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The SI unit of intensity is the watt per square meter/metre (W/m^2.)

Explanation:

Intensity is equal to the power transferred per unit area. Since power is measured in watts (W) and 1 W = 1 J/s, then intensity can be viewed as how fast energy goes through a certain area.

In physics, intensity is often used when studying light, sound, or other phenomena that involve waves or energy transfer. (With waves, the power value is taken as the average power transfer over the wave's period.)

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

A car battery has a rating of 170 ampere-hours. This rating is one indication of the total charge that the battery can provide t
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

612000 C

Explanation:

Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:

I = Δq / Δt

where q = electric charge

t = time taken

This implies that:

Δq = I * Δt

The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:

Δq = 170 * 1 hour

But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;

=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C

The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.
