-- Steven is in his car, rolling slowly but with his foot on the gas and speeding up.

-- Sharon is in her car, rolling fastly but with her foot on the brake and slowing down.

-- Josh is in his car, keeping at a steady 20 miles per hour as he turns the corner.

A fly travels along the x-axis. His starting point is x = 16 m and his ending point 15x = - 25 m. His flight lasts 4.0 seconds H

gogolik [260]

Explanation:

Starting position at x = 16m

Ending position at x = -25m

Time of flight = 4s

Unknown:

Distance flown = ?

Displacement = ?

Speed = ?

Velocity = ?

Solution:

To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;

So distance = 16 + 25 = 41m

Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis

Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$ = $\frac{41}{4}$ = 10.25m/s

Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis

a 70 kg desk sits on the floor motionless If gravity is pulling it with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s how much force is gravity e

adell [148]

Since force is mass*acceleration,

F = 70kg * 9.8 m/s

According to the law of conservation of mass does the total number of atoms change during aerobic respiration

vichka [17]

NO. although the arrangement of the atoms will change, the total number stays constant.

A 30 g horizontal metal bar, 13 cm long, is free to slide up and down between two tall, vertical metal rods that are 13 cm apart

natita [175]

Answer:

Terminal speed, v = 6901.07 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the horizontal bar, m = 30 g = 0.03 kg

Length of the bar, l = 13 cm = 0.13 m

Magnetic field, $B=5.5\times 10^{-2}\ T$

Resistance, R = 1.2 ohms

We need to find the terminal speed oat which the bar falls. When terminal speed is reached,

Force of gravity = magnetic force

$mg=ilB$ ..................(1)

i is the current flowing

l is the length of the rod

Due to the motion in rods, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

$E=Blv$ , v is the speed of the bar

$iR=Blv$

$i=\dfrac{Blv}{R}$

Equation (1) becomes,

$mg=\dfrac{B^2l^2v}{R}$

$v=\dfrac{mgR}{B^2l^2}$

$v=\dfrac{0.03\times 9.8\times 1.2}{(5.5\times 10^{-2})^2(0.13)^2}$

v = 6901.07 m/s

So, the terminal speed at which the bar falls is 6901.07 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
