D = distance between the cars at the start of time = 680 km

v₁ = speed of one car

v₂ = speed of other car = v₁ - 10

t = time taken to meet = 4 h

distance traveled by one car in time "t" + distance traveled by other car in time "t" = D

v₁ t + v₂ t = D

(v₁ + v₂) t = D

inserting the values

(v₁ + v₁ - 10) (4) = 680

v₁ = 90 km/h

rate of slower car is given as

v₂ = v₁ - 10

v₂ = 90 - 10 = 80 km/h

A VW Beetle goes from 0 to 60.0 mi/h with an acceleration of +2.35 m/s^2. (a) How much time does it take for the beetle to reach
Firlakuza [10]
Im going to tell you what to do but not the result. So pay close attention: the first thing you need to do is convert miles/h to m/s. Then for the part a) <span>divide the final velocity by the initial velocity. That will give you the amount of it will take to accelerate to the final velocity.Now for the part b you </span>use the formula v=vo+at. I hope this can help you

The resistivity of gold is at room temperature. A gold wire that is 0.9 mm in diameter and 14 cm long carries a current of 940 m
IgorC [24]

Answer:

0.0360531138247 V/m

Explanation:

\rho = Resistivity of gold = 2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega .m (General value)

I = Current = 940 mA

d = Diameter = 0.9 mm

A = Area = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

E = Electric field

Resistivity is given by

\rho=\dfrac{EA}{I}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{\rho I}{A}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 940\times 10^{-3}}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.9\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow E=0.0360531138247\ V/m

The  electric field in the wire is 0.0360531138247 V/m
