Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

If the speed is zero, then the momentum is zero.

What are some ways that electric fields are similar to magnetic fields?

sattari [20]

Answer:

The correct answers are the proportionality of the fields concerning distance, vector fields, and forces at a distance.

Explanation:

The similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields are that electric fields are produced by two charges that can be positive and negative. Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, although they are also produced by moving charges. Both fields are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the sources, both fields are vectorial and both act by distant forces.

A risk-free, zero-coupon bond with a $5000 face value has ten years to maturity. The bond currently trades at $3650. What is the

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The Yield to Maturity of the bond is YTM = 3.20%

Explanation:

Mathematically the Yield to Maturity of the bond YTM is as follows

$YTM = \frac{C + \frac{F-P}{n} }{\frac{F+P}{2} }$

Where C is the amount of payment to be made = $0

P is the price i.e the present value =$3650

F is the face value of the bond=$5000

n is the year of maturity of the bond = 10 years

$YTM = \frac{0+\frac{5000-3650}{10} }{\frac{5000+3650}{2} } * \frac{100}{1}$

$=3.20$ %

1) The mass of the continent is $2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 274.8 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 2.76 m/s

Explanation:

The continent is a slab of side 5900 km (so the surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth 26 km, therefore its volume is:

$V=(36)(4600)^2=7.62\cdot 10^8 km^3 = 7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$

The mass of the continent is given by

$m=\rho V$

where:

$\rho = 2790 kg/m^3$ is its density

$V=7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$ is its volume

Substituting, we find the mass:

$m=(2790)(7.62\cdot 10^{17})=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

To find the kinetic energy, we need to convert the speed of the continent into m/s first.

The speed is

v = 1.6 cm/year

And we have:

1.6 cm = 0.016 m

$1 year = (365)(24)(60)(60)=3.15\cdot 10^7 s$

So, the speed is

$v=\frac{0.016 m}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$

Now we can find the kinetic energy of the continent, which is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

$m=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$ is the mass

$v=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$ is the speed

Substituting,

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.13\cdot 10^{21})(5.08\cdot 10^{-10})^2=274.8 J$

The jogger in this part has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K = 274.8 J

And its mass is

m = 72 kg

We can write his kinetic energy as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the speed of the man

And solving the equation for v, we find his speed:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(274.8)}{72}}=2.76 m/s$
