At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile that has been waiting at an intersection starts ahead with a constan

t acceleration of 2.40 m/s^2. At the same instant, a truck, traveling with a constant speed of 15.5 m/s, overtakes and passes the automobile.
How far beyond its starting point does the automobile overtake the truck?

How fast is the automobile traveling when it overtakes the truck?

Answer

given,

Initial speed of the car = 0 m/s

acceleration of car = 2.4 m/s²

Speed of the truck = 15.5 m/s

to car to overtake the truck distance travel by both should be same

distance traveled by the truck

d = 15.5 t

distance traveled by the car

d = u t + 1/2 gt ²

d = 0.5 x 9.8 t²

now, equating both the equations

15.5 t = 4.9 t²

t = 3.163 s

Time taken by car to overtake truck is 3.163 s

distance travel by the car = 15.5 x 3.163

d = 49 m

b) Speed of the automobile

using equation of motion

    v = u + at

    v = 0 + 2.4 x 3.163

    v = 7.59 m/s

Speed of the automobile while crossing truck is equal to v = 7.59 m/s

Suppose that in a lightning flash the potential difference between a cloud and the ground is 1.0*109 V and the quantity of charg
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J, b) v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) The potential energy is:

U_{e} = Q \cdot \Delta V

U_{e} = (30\,C)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{9}\,V)

U_{e} = 3 \times 10^{10}\,J

b) Maximum final speed:

U_{e} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot U_{e}}{m} }

The final speed is:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (3 \times 10^{10}\,J)}{1000\,kg} }

v \approx 7745.967\,\frac{m}{s}

Part of one row of the periodic table is shown. 4 blue boxes in a row. The first has S n at the center and 50 above with tin and
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Atoms of tellurium (Te) have the greatest average number of neutrons equal to 76.

Explanation:

In the periodic table, Elements are represented with their respected symbols. Above the symbol is the elements atomic number which is equal to the number of protons in each atom. Below the symbol is the mass number of that element which is roughly equal to the sum of neutrons and protons of that atom.

To calculate the number of neutrons we can take the difference of Atomic number and mass number:

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

<u>- Tin:</u>

Atomic number = 50

Mass number = 119

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 119 - 50

Number of neutrons = 69

<u>- Antimony(Sb):</u>

Atomic number = 51

Mass number = 122

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 122 - 51

Number of neutrons = 71

<u>- Tellurium(Te):</u>

Atomic number = 52

Mass number = 128

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 128 - 52

Number of neutrons = <u>76</u>

<u>- Iodine(I):</u>

Atomic number = 53

Mass number = 127

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 127 - 53

Number of neutrons = 74

Here, the greatest number of neutrons is for the atoms of Tellurium(Te).

Question 9
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer

Can the wave travel between the Sun and Earth.

Explanation:

This would be due to the fact that mechanical waves alone require a medium to travel. Electromagnetic waves that are produced on the sun subsequently travel to Earth through the vacuum of outer space. ... Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another.

The forces exerted on an object are shown. (3 points)
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<em>F equals 3 N and the object remains stationary</em>. (second option in the list)

Explanation:

For sure to cancel acting forces, F must be 3N pointing up. But with regards to the object stationary or not, the question is tricky. We could have a ZERO net force applied, and the object moving at constant speed, which could still verify Newton's Laws. But considering the first answer option that refers to vertical motion upward where the object could be gaining potential energy, the most accurate response is that the force F has to be 3 N pointing up to make the object in equilibrium, and no motion in the vertical axis.
