So the area under a velocity time graph is distance or displacement, if you have done calculus yet you will understand that if you take the integral of a velocity function then you end up with displacement. Thats for later understanding however.

So this appears to be a right triangle so we can find the area of a triangle as:

0.5bh = A

Since our area is 10 meters lets alter our formula a bit to fit the situation:

Our base here is time and our height is velocity so:

0.5tv = Δx

So we can read off the graph that our velocity at the end, or our final velocity appears to be near 2.0 m/s

So we have v, and Δx so lets isolate for time by dividing by v and 0.5

t = Δx / 0.5v

Now lets plug all that in:

t = 10 / 0.5(2)

t = 10 seconds

Hope this helped!

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy

kinetic energy of alpha particle is converted into electric potential energy.

1/2 mv² = k q₁q₂/d , d is closest distance

d = 2kq₁q₂ / mv²

= 2 x 9 x 10⁹ x 79e x 2e / 4mv²

= 1422 x2x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² x 10⁹ /4x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x (1.5 x 10⁷)²

= 3640.32 x 10⁻²⁹ /2x 3.7575 x 10⁻¹³

= 484.4 x 10⁻¹⁶

=48.4  x 10⁻¹⁵ m

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:<span>

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2

After a collision between two different massed objects; the larger objects accelerate at a faster rate than the smaller object?
Nitella [24]

Answer: Things continue doing what they are doing unless a force is applied to it. Objects have a natural tendency to resist change. This is INERTIA. Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects, so true

Explanation:

Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop. The Cadillac has more of a tendency to stay stationary (or continue moving), and resist a change in motion than a bicycle.

The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave obeys the equation E=(375V/m)cos[(1.99×107rad/m)x+(5.97×1015rad/s)t].a.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A) max = Eo = 375 V/m, B)  B = 125 10⁻⁸ T , C) f = 9.50 101⁴ Hz, D) λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m, E)  T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s , F) invisible for humans   G)  v = c = 3 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

The expression given for the electric field is

       E = 375 cos (1.99 107x + 5.97 105t)

The general formula for the electric field of a transverse traveler is

     E = Eo cos (kx-wt)

Where k is the wave number and w the angular velocity

A) The amplitudes as electric is

     Emax = Eo = 375 V / m

B) the electric and magnetic field are related

     E / B = c

     B = E / c

     B = 375/3 108

     B = 125 10⁻⁸ T

C) angular velocity and frequency is related

    .w = 2π f

     f = w / 2π

     f = 5.97 10¹⁵ / 2π

     f = 9.50 101⁴ Hz

D) the speed of light has the formula

      c = λ f

      λ = c / f

      λ = 3 10⁸ / 9.50 10¹⁴

      λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m

E) The period

     T = 1 / f

     T = 1 / 9.5 10¹⁴

     T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s

F) let's reduce the wavelength nm

   λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹nm / 1m)

   λ = 3.158 10²nm = 315.3 nm

The visible radiation range is between 400nm and 700nm. This radiation is ultraviolet and is invisible humans

G) All electromagnetic radiation has a speed at the speed of light (c)

      v = c = 3 10⁸ m/s
