Taking significant figures into account, 6.01 has 3 significant figures, and 12 meters has 2. In the rule of multiplication, the answer has to follow the least number of significant figures. This means that the answer we obtain must have only 2 significant figures. To find the area of the rectangle, the two sides are merely multiplied. This is shown below:

6.01 * 12 = 72.12 = 72

Therefore, the area is 72 sq. meters

a car is moving 8.80 m/s when it begins to accelerate at 2.45 m/s^2. how much time does it take to trav 138m. please help me (':
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

7.6 s

Explanation:

Considering kinematics formula for final velocity as

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

Where v and u are final and initial velocities, a is acceleration and s is distance moved.

Making v the subject then

v=\sqrt{u^{2}+2as}

Substituting 8.8 m/s for u, 138 m for s and 2.45 m/s2 for a then

v=\sqrt{8.8^{2}+2*2.45*138}\\v=27.45 m/s

Also, v=u+at and making t the subject of the formula

t=\frac {v-u}{a}

Substituting 27.45 m/s for v, 8.8 m/s for u and 2.45 m/s for a then

t=\frac {27.45-8.8}{2.45}=7.6122448979591\approx 7.6s

Therefore, it needs 7.6 seconds to travel

Why aren't homes wired in series? A. Because it's too expensive. B. Parallel circuits are too complex for home wiring. O C. Beca
Liula [17]

Answer:

D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.

On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positive
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The potential energy will be,

⇒  U(x)= -\frac{C_{6}}{x^6}

The expression of force will be,

⇒  F=-\frac{dU(x)}{dx}

⇒      =-(C_{6}(-6)x^{-7})

⇒      =-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}

Force seems to be appealing because the expression has been negative. It therefore means that the force or substance is acting laterally in on itself.

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The magnitude of the angular acceleration ∝ = \frac{rxF}{2.8[tex]r^{2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The angular acceleration ∝ is equal to the torque (radius multiplied by force) divided by the mass times the square of the radius. The magnitude of angular acceleration ∝ will have the equation above but we have to replace the mass in the equation by 2.8kg as stated.

PLEASE HELP ME!
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

a) A = 3 cm,  b)  T = 0.4 s,   f = 2.5 Hz,

2) A standing wave the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains

Explanation:

a) in an oscillatory movement the amplitude is the highest value of the signal in this case

          A = 3 cm

b) the period of oscillation is the time it takes for the wave to repeat itself in this case

          T = 0.4 s

the period is the inverse of the frequency

         f = 1 /T

         f = 1 /, 0.4

         f = 2.5 Hz

2) a traveling wave is a wave for which as time increases the displacement increases, in the case of a transverse wave the oscillation is perpendicular to the displacement and in the case of a longitudinal wave the oscillation is in the same direction of the displacement.

A standing wave occurs when a traveling wave bounces off some object and there are two waves, one that travels in one direction and the other that travels in the opposite direction. In this case, the displacement of the wave is canceled and only one oscillation remains.
