If a car was cruising down the highway at 80 km/hr, how fast would the people inside the car be traveling?

2 answers:

6 0

Because the people in the car are attached to the vehicle, the people inside the vehicle are going the same speed as the vehicle.

Hope this helps! :)

The people inside the car are at rest (speed = zero) relative to the car, moving 80 km/hr relative to the pavement, and slightly slightly less relative to a worm slithering on the road in the same direction as the car.

A diver is swimming underneath an oil slick with a thickness of 200 nm and an index of refraction of 1.50. A white light shines

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

thickness of oil t = 200 nm

index of refraction μ = 1.5

For transmitted light :---

path difference = 2μ t

For constructive interference

path difference = n λ , λ is wavelength of light

2μ t = n λ

λ = 2μ t / n

For longest λ , n = 1

λ = 2μ t

= 2 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 600 nm

Wavelength in water

= 600 / refractive index of water

= 600 / 1.33

= 451.1 nm Ans

A 3.30 x 10-2-kg block is resting on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to a horizontal spring whose spring const

avanturin [10]

Answer:

0.17547 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = $3.3\times 10^{-2}\ kg$

v = Velocity of block = 10.8 m/s

k = Spring constant = 125 N/m

A = Amplitude

The kinetic energy of the system is conserved

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2\\\Rightarrow \\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{mv^2}{k}}\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.3\times 10^{-2}\times 10.8^2}{125}}\\\Rightarrow A=0.17547\ m$

The amplitude of the resulting simple harmonic motion is 0.17547 m

Milk containing 3.7% fat and 12.8% total solids is to be evaporated to produce a product containing 7.9% fat. What is the yield

ratelena [41]

Answer:

the yield of product is YP=46.835 % and the concentration of solids is

Cs = 27.33%

Explanation:

Assuming that all the solids and fats remains in the milk after the evaporation, then the mass of product mP will be

Mass of fat in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.037 = mP* 0.079

mP = 100 kg* 0.037/0.079 = 46.835 kg

then the yield YP of the product is

YP= mP / 100 kg = 46.835 kg / 100 kg = 46.835 %

YP= 46.835 %

the concentration of solids Cs is

Mass of solids in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.128 = 46.835 kg * Cs

Cs = 100 kg* 0.128 / 46.835 kg = 0.2733 = 27.33%

Cs = 27.33%

1) On the way to the moon, the Apollo astro-

kramer

(1) You must find the point of equilibrium between the two forces,

G * MTms / (R−x)^2 = G * MLms / x^2
MT / (R-x)^2 = ML / x^2

So,

x = R * sqrt(ML * MT) - ML / (MT - ML)
R = is the distance between Earth and Moon.

The result should be,
x = 3.83 * 10^7m
from the center of the Moon, and

R - x = 3.46*10^8 m
from the center of the Earth.

(2) As the distance from the center of the Earth is the number we found before,
d = R - x = 3.46*10^8m
The acceleration at this point is
g = G * MT / d^2
g = 3.33*10^-3 m/s^2
