Answer:

1.76m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is the time rate of change in velocity of a body. It is a vector quantity that is it has both magnitude and direction

From newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the applied force which takes place in the direction of force applied.

This law gives a formula which relate force, mass and acceleration.

Force = mass x acceleration

Given that force = 9.7N , mass = 5.5kg

Since force(F)= mass(m) x acceleration(a)

Therefore F = ma

Divide both sides by m

F/m = ma/m

Therefore,

Acceleration (a) = F/m

Acceleration = 9.7N ➗ 5.5kg

Acceleration = 1.76m/s²

The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²

Calculate the phase angle (in radians) for a circuit with a maximum voltage of 12 V and w-50 Hz. The voltage source is connected

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.

(c) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 12 V

Angular velocity = 50 Hz

Capacitance $C= 20\times10^{-2}\ F$

Inductance $L=20\times10^{-3}\ H$

Resistance $R= 50\ Omega$

We need to calculate the impedance

Using formula of impedance

$z=\sqrt{R^2+(\omega L-\dfrac{1}{\omega C})^2}$

$z=\sqrt{50^2+(50\times20\times10^{-3}-\dfrac{1}{50\times20\times10^{-2}})^2}$

$z=50.00$

We need to calculate the phase angle

Using formula of phase angle

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{R}{z})$

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{50}{50.00})$

$\theta=0.0180\ rad$

Hence, The phase angle is 0.0180 rad.

What type of energy transfer occurs through light or electromagnetic waves?

Free_Kalibri [48]

Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation. Most of the electromagnetic radiation that comes to the earth from the sun is in the form of visible light. Light is made of waves of different frequencies.

Light of wavelength 476.1 nm falls on two slits spaced 0.29 mm apart. What is the required distance from the slits to the screen

stich3 [128]

Answer:

The distance is $D = 2.6 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength of the light is $\lambda = 476.1 \ nm = 476.1 *10^{-9} \ m$

The distance between the slit is $d = 0.29 \ mm = 0.29 *10^{-3} \ m$

The between the first and second dark fringes is $y = 4.2 \ mm = 4.2 *10^{-3} \ m$

Generally fringe width is mathematically represented as

$y = \frac{\lambda * D }{d}$

Where D is the distance of the slit to the screen

Hence

$D = \frac{y * d}{\lambda }$

substituting values

$D = \frac{ 4.2 *10^{-3} * 0.29 *10^{-3}}{ 476.1 *10^{-9} }$

$D = 2.6 \ m$

A bullet glider and a target glider both have a mass of 0.200 kg. The bullet glider is moving 0.450 m/s

Romashka [77]

Answer:

the two gliders collide, the mobile glider will transfer a bit of time to the fixed glider, which is why it comes out with a speed that is smaller than that of the bullet glider.

Explanation:

When the two gliders collide, the mobile glider will transfer a bit of time to the fixed glider, which is why it comes out with a speed that is smaller than that of the bullet glider.

Changes can occur that the gliders unite and move with a cosecant speed less than the initial one.

The whole process must be analyzed using conservation of the moment.

p₀ = m v₀

celestines que clash case

p_f = (m + M) v

po = pf

m v₀ = (n + M) v

v = $\frac{m}{m+M}$

calculemos

v= $\frac{0.200}{0.200+M} 0.450$

v= 0.09 m/s

elastic shock case

p₀ = m v₀

p_f = m v₁ +M v₂

p₀ = p_f
