Suppose you increase your walking speed from 7 m/s to 15 m/s in a period of 2 m. What is your acceleration?

Physics

likoan [24]3 years ago

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed) = (15 m/s - 7 m/s) = 8 m/s

time for the change = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (120 seconds)

Acceleration = 0.067 m/s²

The volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its
Leni [432]

Answer: Charles's law

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws, and it explains the effect of temperature changes on the volume of a given mass of gas at a constant pressure. Usually, the volume of a gas decreases as the temperature decreases and increases as the temperature also increases.

Mathematically, Charles's law can be expressed as:

V ∝ T

V = kT or (V/T) = k

where v is volume, T is temperature in Kelvin, and a k is a constant.

What frequency fapproach is heard by a passenger on a train moving at a speed of 18.0 m/s relative to the ground in a direction
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 18.0 m/s

Suppose a train is traveling at 30.0 m/s relative to the ground in still air. The frequency of the note emitted by the train whistle is 262 Hz .

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

f'=f(\dfrac{v+v_{p}}{v-v_{s}})

Where, f = frequency

v = speed of sound

v_{p} = speed of passenger

v_{s} = speed of source

Put the value into the formula

f'=262\times(\dfrac{344+18}{344-30})

f'=302.05\ Hz

Hence, The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

650 N boy and a 419 N girl sit on a 150 N porch swing that is 2.0 m long. If the swing is supported by a chain at each end, what
Sergio039 [100]

The tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.

<h3>Principle of moments</h3>

The Principle of Moments states that when a body is in equip, the sum of clockwise moment about a point is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moment about the same point.

The formula for calculating moment is given below:

  • Moment = Force × perpendicular distance from the pivot

<h3>Calculating the tension in the chains</h3>

From the principle of moments:

Let tension in chain 1 be T1 and tension in chain 2 be T2.

T1 + T2 = 150 + 650 + 419

T1 + T2 =1219

Taking all distances from chain 1,

Sum of Moments = 0

419 × 0.5 + 150 × 0.85 + 650 × 0.9 = T2 × 1.7

T2 = 922/17

T2 = 542.35 N

Then, T1 = 1219 - 542.35

T1 = 676.65 N

Therefore, the tension in the two chains T1 and T2 is 676.65 N and 542.53 N respectively.

neonofarm [45]

Answer: 405.3 minutes

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the following:

Fisrtly we calculate the volume of the wire, this is given by:

Vwire=π*r^2*L where r and L are the radius and L the length of teh wire, respectively.

Vwire=π*1.25*10^-3*0.26=1.27*10^-6 m^3

then the number of the total electrons in tthe wire volume is given by;

n° electrons in the wire=ρ*Vwire=8.4*10^28*1.27*10^-6 m^3=1.07 *10^23

Finally, considering the current in the wire equal to 4.4*10^18 electrons/s

the time consuming to extract all the electrons from the wire is given by:

t= total electrons in the wire/ current=1.067*10^23/4.4*10^18=24,318 s

equivalent to 405.3 minutes
