1) What would the average acceleration be for a car at a stoplight that speeds up to 20 m/s in 10 seconds (in m/s^2)

1.)
Velocity is in m/s, and acceleration is in m/s^2 like you said. Because of this, we can calculate this by dividing the speed by the time it took to get to that speed.
(20 meters/second) / 10 seconds = 2 meters/ second^2

2.)
Same thing with the first one.
(100 meters/second) / 4 seconds = 25 meters / seconds^2

Answer:

Part a)

a = 2 m/s/s

Part b)

a = - 25 m/s/s

Explanation:

As we know that the average acceleration id defined as the rate of change in the velocity of the object

so here it is given by formula

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

now we know that

v_f = 20 m/s

v_i = 0

\Delta t = 10 s

now we have

a = \frac{20 - 0}{10} = 2 m/s^2

Part b)

here car is travelling with speed 100 m/s

now driver slams brakes and car finally stop in t = 4 s

so the average acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

now we know that

v_f = 0 m/s

v_i = 100

\Delta t = 4 s

now we have

a = \frac{0 - 100}{4} = -25 m/s^2

A coil of 40 turns is wrapped around a long solenoid of cross-sectional area 7.5×10−3m2. The solenoid is 0.50 m long and has 500
defon

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to mutual inductance in a solenoid.

This definition is described in the following equation as,

M = \frac{\mu_0 N_1 N_2A_1}{l_1}

Where,

\mu =permeability of free space

N_1 = Number of turns in solenoid 1

N_2 = Number of turns in solenoid 2

A_1= Cross sectional area of solenoid

l = Length of the solenoid

Part A )

Our values are given as,

\mu_0 = 4\pi *10^{-7}H/m

N_1 = 500

N_2 = 40

A = 7.5*10^{-4}m^2

l = 0.5m

Substituting,

M = \frac{\mu_0 N_1 N_2A_2}{l_1}

M = \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})(500)(40)(7.5*10^{-4})}{0.5}

M = 3.77*10^{-4}H

PART B) Considering that many of the variables remain unchanged in the second solenoid, such as the increase in the radius or magnetic field, we can conclude that mutual inducantia will appear the same.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. They have different wavelengths - Because These radiations form a spectra that differs by the size of the wavelength.

2. They have different Frequencies (f) that is frequency = 1/ wavelength

(f = 1/wavelength)

3. They propagate at different speed though a non vacuum media (non vacuum media affect the speed based on the wavelength)

How do an object's mass<br> and velocity relate to its<br> momentum?
uysha [10]
Momentum depends upon the variables mass and velocity. In terms of an equation, the momentum of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the velocity of the object.
