Which shapes / structures are more stable?

2 answers:

Triangles. An example would be bridges. Every bridge has compression and tension in the bridge that the triangles disperse throughout the trusses.

Most often those smaller structures are triangular in shape because triangular shapes are very strong and stable

Define impulse and momentum.<br>No spam

Doss [256]

Impulse: a certain amount of force you apply for an amount of time.

Impulse: F*t where F= Force & t=time

Momentum: increasing forward motion.

A ball rolling down a slide gains momentum

p=mv where m=mass and v=velocity

(a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h,

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(a) Time t = 16.46 sec

(b) Time t =13.466 sec

Explanation:

(a) As the train starts from rest its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration $a=1.35m/sec^2$

Final speed v = 80 km/hr

$80km/hr=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600sec}=22.22m/sec$

From first equation of motion v =u+at

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{22.22-0}{1.35}=16.46 sec$

(b) Now initial speed u = 22.22 m/sec

As finally train comes to rest so final speed v=0 m/sec

Deceleration $a=1.65m/sec^2$

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-22.22}{-1.65}=13.466 sec$

Final velocity v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 8.30 sec

So acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{0-22.22}{8.3}=-2.6771m/sec^2$

As acceleration is negative so it is a deceleration

What determines how much induced current will flow through a conductor?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Rate of change of magnetic flux

Explanation:

The induced current is equal to the ratio of induced emf to the resistance of the conductor.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the induced emf is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.
