Unit conversion is a way of converting some common units into another without changing their real value. The average speed of the migrating loon flies is 45.5019 miles/hr.

<h3>What is Unit conversion?</h3>

Unit conversion is a way of converting some common units into another without changing their real value. for, example, 1 centimeter is equal to 10 mm, though the real measurement is still the same the units and numerical values have been changed.

Given that migrating loon flies at an average speed of 19 m/s. Now, since 1 meter is equal to (1/1609.34) miles and 1 second is equal to (1/3600) seconds. Therefore, we can write the speed as,

$\rm Speed = 19\ \dfrac{meter}{second}\\$

$=19 \times \dfrac{\frac{1}{1609.34}\rm\ miles}{\frac{1}{3600} \rm\ hours}$

= 19 × (3600/1609.34) miles/hr

= 42.5019 miles/ hr

Hence, the average speed of the migrating loon flies is 45.5019 miles/hr.

A 0.12 kg body undergoes simple harmonic motion of amplitude 8.5 cm and period 0.20 s. (a) What is themagnitude of the maximum f

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m = 0.12 kg

Amplitude ,A= 8.5 cm

time period ,T = 0.2 s

We know that

$T=\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}$

${\omega}=\dfrac{2\pi }{0.2}\ rad/s$

${\omega}=31.41\ rad/s$

We know that

${\omega}^2=m\ K$

K=Spring constant

$K=\dfrac{\omega^2}{m}$

$K=\dfrac{31.41^2}{0.12}\ N/m$

K=8221.56 N/m

The maximum force F

F= K A

F= 8221.56 x 0.085 N

F=698.83 N

a)F=698.83 N

b)K=8221.56 N/m

A basketball player can leap upward 0.43 m. how long does he remain in the air? use an acceleration due to gravity of 9.80 m/s2

MArishka [77]

From the equations of linear motion,
v² = u² + 2as where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and a is the gravitational acceleration, and s is the displacement,
Thus, v² = u² -2gs, but v=0
hence, u² = 2gs
= 2×9.81×0.43
= 8.4366
u = √8.4366
=2.905 m/s
Hence the initial velocity is 2.905 m/s
Then using the equation v= u +gt .
Therefore, v = u -gt. (-g because the player is jumping against the gravity)
but, v = 0
Thus, u= gt
Hence, t = u/g
= 2.905/9.81
= 0.296 seconds

Two wires each carry 10.0 A of current (in opposite directions) and are 2.50 mm apart. What is the magnetic field 37.0 cm away a

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

see answer below

Explanation:

Before we do any kind of calculation, we need to convert the proper units of the exercise. All the units of distance must be in meters, so, let's change distance of the wire, and the magnetic field to meters:

Separation between the wires are 2.5 mm:

2.5 mm * (1 m / 1000 mm) = 0.0025 m

The distance of P from the bottom of the wires is 37 cm:

37 cm * (1 m/100 cm) = 0.37 m

The distance of P from the top of the wires is just the sum of the two distances:

R = 0.37 + 0.0025 = 0.3725 m

Now that we have the distance, we can determine the magnetic field, using the following expression:

B = B(bottom) - B(top) or just B₂ - B₁

And B = μ₀ I / 2πR

Replacing in the above expression we have:

B = μ₀ I / 2π ( 1/R₂ - 1/R₁)

Now we can determine the magnetic field:

B = (4πx10⁻⁷ * 10 / 2π) (1/0.37 - 1/0.3725)

Which means that the magnetic field is out of the page.

Hope this helps

A motorboat heads due east at 16 m/s across a river that flows due south at 9.0 m/s. a.) What is the resultant velocity of the b

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

a)V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b) t =7.41 m/s

c)D= 66.70 m

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity of boat in east direction = 16 m/s

Velocity of river = 9 m/s

a)The resultant velocity V

$V=\sqrt{16^2+9^2}\ m/s$

V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

Lets t time takes to cross the river

136 = 18.35 x t

t =7.41 m/s

The distance covered downstream

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

t= 7.41 s

D= 7.41 x 9 m

D= 66.70 m
