15 seconds to finish her race, running with a speed of 8 m/s. Which statement best describes the difference in the distance each runner ran?
A. Jordin's distance was longer by 10 meters.
B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.
C. Samantha's distance was longer by 2 meters.
D. Samantha's distance was longer by 10 meters.

Answer:

B. Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters.

Explanation:

The distance Samantha runs = Samantha's speed ×  Samantha's time = 10 m/s × 10 s = 100 m

The distance Jordin runs = Jordin's speed × Jordin's time = 8 m/s × 15 s = 120 m.

The difference in the distance run = (120 - 100) m = 20 m.

So, Jordin's distance is 20 m more than that of Samantha.

So, Jordin's distance was longer by 20 meters is the answer.

A solenoid has 332 turns and a length of 14 cm. If a current of 0.88 A produces a magnetic flux density of 0.28 T in the core of
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

106.83

Explanation:

N = 332, l = 14 cm = 0.14 m, i = 0.88 A, B = 0.28 T

Let ur be the relative permeability

B = u0 x ur x n x i

0.28 = 4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x ur x 332 x 0.88 / 0.14       ( n = N / l)

ur = 106.83

An early submersible craft for deep-sea exploration was raised and lowered by a cable from a ship. When the craft was stationary
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

a) 5200 N  b) 8800 N

Explanation:

a) tension in the cable when it was being lowered to the sea floor = weight of the object which acts downward ( equals the tension in the cable when the craft was stationary in opposite direction)  - the drag force which will act upward =  7000 - 1800 = 5200 N

b) tension in the cable when the craft was being raised since the tension will act upward and the drag force and the weight will act downward = 7000 + 1800 = 8800 N

Energy transformation, also termed as energy conversion, is the process of changing energy from one of its forms into another. In physics, energy is a quantity that provides the capacity to perform many works—think of lifting or warming an object. In addition to being convertible, energy is transferable to a different location or object, but it cannot be created or destroyed.


Energy in many of its forms may be used in natural processes, or to provide some service to society such as heating, refrigeration, lighting or performing mechanical work to operate machines. For example, in order to heat your home, your furnace can burn fuel, whose chemical potential energy is thus converted into thermal energy, which is then transferred to your home's air in order to raise its temperature.


In another example, an internal combustion engine burns gasoline to create pressure that pushes the pistons, thus performing work in order to accelerate your vehicle, ultimately converting the fuel's chemical energy to your vehicle's additional kinetic energy corresponding to its increase in speed.
