3. If a car is moving at 90km/hr and it rounds a corner, also at 90km/hr. Does it maintain

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Constant speed: yes

Constant velocity: no

Explanation:

Let's remind the definition of speed and velocity:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered (regardless of the direction) and the time taken:

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

- Velocity is a vector quantity, so it has both a magnitude and a direction. The magnitude is equal to the rate between the displacement of the object and the time taken, while the direction is the same as the displacement.

In this problem, we notice that:

- The speed of the car remains constant, as it is 90 km/h

- However, its direction of motion changes while the car travels round the corner: this means that the direction of the velocity is also changing, therefore velocity is not constant.

What minerals attracts iron nails?

Helga [31]

A lodestone is a naturally magnetized piece of the mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, which can attract iron. The property of magnetism was first discovered in antiquity through lodestones.

Vivian went on a bicycle trip through Germany with her family. One afternoon, she rode her bicycle along a long flat road at a c

natima [27]

d = distance traveled by her on her bicycle on a long flat road = 24 kilometer

t = time taken by her to travel distance "d" on her bicycle on a long flat road = 1.2 hours

v = average speed of vivian = ?

we know that average speed is given as

v = d/t

inserting the values in the above formula

v = 24 kilometer / 1.2 hour

v = 20 kilometer/hour

hence the correct choice is

C) 20 km/h

The amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator will be doubled by:a) doubling only the initial speedb) doubling the initial displ

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

When both initial speed and initial displacement is doubled then amplitude will be doubled.

Explanation:

Given that :- Amplitude of simple harmonic Oscillator is doubled.

So,

Formula of Simple harmonic oscillator is $X=A\sin\ (2\pi ft +\phi)$ ...........(1)

Where X = Position in (m,cm,km.....)

A = Amplitude in (m,cm,km.....)

F = Frequency in (Hz)

T = Time in (sec.)

Ф = Phase in (rad)

For initial displacement taking t=0 we get,

Initial displacement = $A\sin(\phi)$ .................(2)

Now taking equation (1) and differentiating it w.r.t to (t) we get

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 2\pi fA\cos\ (2\pi ft+\phi)$

$V= 2\pi fA\cos\ (2\pi ft+\phi)$

taking t=0 for initial speed then we get,

Initial speed = $2\pi fA\cos\phi$ ...............(3)

observing equation (2) & (3) that the initial displacement and initial speed depends on the Amplitude of the Oscillator.

Hence,

when both initial speed and displacement is doubled then amplitude will be doubled.

List the 3 types of collisions that occur when your vehicle hits an object.

koban [17]

These collisions are: "a Vehicle Collision, a Human Collision, Internal Collision." A vehicle collision is a collision that involves two or more vehicles and is when the vehicles collide against each other creating a unbalanced force since how the force comes from opposite directions. A human collision would involve a vehicle and a human which would also be a unbalanced force but the human wouldn't have much affect of it's speed. A internal collision is when something happens inside the vehicle which decreases, or increases the vehicles speed.

Hope this helps!
