In a 350-m race, runner A starts from rest and accelerates at 1.6 m/s^2 for the first 30 m and then runs at constant speed. Runn

kifflom [539]

Answer:

B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

Explanation:

Given that,

Total distance = 350 m

Acceleration of A = 1.6 m/s²

Distance = 30 m

Acceleration of B = 2.0 m/s²

We need to calculate the time for A

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{A}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.6\times t_{A}^2$

$t_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{1.6}}$

$t_{A}=6.12\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for B

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{B}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times2.0\times t_{B}^2$

$t_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{2.0}}$

$t_{B}=5.48\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for longest nap

Using formula for difference of time

$t'=t_{A}-t_{B}$

$t'=6.12-5.48$

$t'=0.64\ s$

Hence, B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

A scientist measures the growth of a bamboo plant over time. The table above shows the results. What is the best interference fo

lisabon 2012 [21]

(B) 2.25cm

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

At 40 hours, the height of the bamboo plant is 2.1cm

At 50 hours, the height of the bamboo plant is 2.4cm

Height of the bamboo plant after 45 hours = ?

The difference in length from 40 to 50 hours = 2.4 - 2.1cm

= 0.3 cm

Mean of 40 and 50 is 45.

Thus,

At 45 hours, the height will increase by 0.3/2

= 0.15 cm

Height at 45 hour = 2.1 + 0.15cm

= 2.25cm

Therefore, the height of the plant after 45 hours is 2.25cm

The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes

tester [92]

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

Work done by brake = 1000 × 10 × 100

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J

What is the relationship between the atoms of elements,its isotopes and its ions

klasskru [66]

An element refers to a collection of atoms having the same number of protons and electrons (an atomic number). In each element there is a different atomic number due to a different amount of protons in the nucleus.

An isotope is a variation of an element that contains a different number of neutrons, therefore adding weight to the atom.

An ion is a charged atom, and its charge shows how many electrons it needs to gain or lose in order to become stable.

Define static electricity and ohms law

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Static electricity : is a familiar electric phenomenon in which charged particles are transferred from one body to another

Ohm's law : states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance
