Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with

Physics
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
3 0

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

Lila is a track and field athlete. She must complete four laps around a circular track. The track itself is a 400 meter track an
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Her speed is 1.1 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s

Explanation:

Speed = Distance covered/Time

Given

Distance = 400m

Time = 6minutes = 6*60 = 360 secs

Substitute the given parameter into the formula;

Speed = 400/360

Speed = 1.1m/s

Since the track is a circular track, the displacement will be zero. She is only moving in a circular path (no direction)

Velocity = Displacement/Time

Velocity = 0/3600

Velocity = 0m/s

Hence her speed is 1.1 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s

Coiling wire around an iron core and applying an electric current through the wire creates a temporary magnet called an electrom
Serggg [28]

Answer:

C) Use a battery with more voltage.

Explanation:

The equation for the magnetic field around a coil is given by,

B = μ₀NI

where,

B = Magnetic flux density

μ₀ = permeability

N = number of turns per meter

I = Current in the wire

So when using a higher voltage battery, more current passes through the battery as resistance of the wire remains the same.
