That's true for electromagnetic radiation.

(Not for some other kinds though, like alpha radiation and beta radiation. Those are particles, not waves at all.)

How do i calculate this?

Lesechka [4]

CAR 1

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/20

M = 105 m/s^2

CAR 2

Momentum = Mass/Velocity

M = 2100/30

M = 70 m/s^2

A.) If its booster rockets accelerate the space shuttle at 15m/s2, how high will it be one minute after launch?

poizon [28]

Answer:

27,000 m

450 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity is 0 m/s:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 15 m/s²

t = 60 s

A) Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (60 s) + ½ (15 m/s²) (60 s)²

Δy = 27,000 m

B) Find: v_avg

v_avg = Δy / t

v_avg = 27,000 m / 60 s

v_avg = 450 m/s

Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to t

yarga [219]

Answer

The rate at which the magnetic field is changing is $[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = 0.000467 T/s$

Explanation

From the question we are told that

The electric field strength is $E = 3.5mV/m = 3.5 *10^{-3} \ V/m$

The radius is $r = 1.5 \ m$

The rate of change of the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$\frac{d \phi }{dt} = \int\limits^{} {E \cdot dl}$

Where $dl$ is change of a unit length

$\frac{d \phi}{dt} = A * \frac{dB}{dt}$

Where A is the area which is mathematically represented as

$A = \pi r^2$

$E \int\limits^{} { dl} = ( \pi r^2) (\frac{dB}{dt} )$

$E L = ( \pi r^2) (\frac{dB}{dt} )$

where L is the circumference of the circle which is mathematically represented as

$L = 2 \pi r$

$E (2 \pi r ) = (\pi r^2 ) [\frac{dB}{dt} ]$

$E = \frac{r}{2} [\frac{dB}{dt} ]$

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = \frac{E}{ \frac{r}{2} }$

substituting values

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = \frac{3.5 *10^{-3}}{ \frac{15}{2} }$

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = 0.000467 T/s$

A 975-kg elevator accelerates upward at 0.754 m/s2, pulled by a cable of negligible mass. Find the tension force in the cable.

Zina [86]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.

According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So

$\sum F = ma$

$T-mg = ma$

Here,

T = Tension

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

a = Acceleration (upward)

Rearranging to find T,

$T = m(g+a)$

$T = (975)(9.8+0.754)$

$T= 10290.15N$

Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N
