Two cars - Car A and Car B - drive in the same direction down a street. Car B is traveling at 30 m/s. Car A is traveling 20 m/s.

Imagine that you're sitting inside Car A and Car B passes you. What is the velocity of Car B relative to you? Don't forget UNITS.

A high powered rifle can shoot a bullet at a speed of 1500 mi/hr. On the moon, with almost no atmosphere and an acceleration due
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

On the Moon :----

1500 x 1.6 = 2400 m /s is initial velocity of bullet .

g = 1.6 m /s²

v = u - gt

0 = 2400 - 1.6 t

t = 1500 s

This is time of ascent

Time of decent will also be the same

Total time of flight = 2 x 1500 = 3000 s

On the Earth : ---

v = u - a₁ t

0 = u - a₁ x 18

u = 18a₁

v² = u² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

0 = (18a₁ )² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

a₁ = 16.93

For downward return

s = ut + 1/2 a₂ x t²

2743.2 = 0 + .5 x a₂ x 31²

a₂ = 5.7 m /s²

If d be the deceleration produced by air

g + d = 16.93 ( during upward journey )

g - d = 5.7

g = (16.93 + 5.7) / 2  

= 11.315 m / s

d = 5.6 m /s²

So air is creating a deceleration of 5.6 m /s².

Explain a situation in which you can accelerate even though your speed doesn’t change.
Serga [27]
"Acceleration" does NOT mean speeding up.  It also doesn't mean
slowing down.  Acceleration means ANY change in the speed
OR DIRECTION of motion.

The only kind of motion that's NOT accelerated is motion at a steady
speed AND in a straight line.

Even when your speed is steady, you're accelerating if your direction
is changing.

A few examples:
(no speeds are changing):

-- driving on a curved road, or turning a corner
-- going around a curve on a skateboard, a bike, or a Segway
-- running on a quarter-mile track
-- an Indy car cruising a practice lap around the track
-- water spinning, getting ready to go down the drain
-- any point on the blade of a fan
-- the little ball going around the inside of a Roulette wheel
-- the Moon in its orbit around the Earth
-- the Earth in its orbit around the sun

An 800 N man stands on a scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Net force = 800 – 650

= 150 N

150 = (800 ÷ 9.8) a  

a = 1470 ÷ 800

= 1.8375 m/s^2, downwards

Is space expanding within clusters of galaxies? why or why not?
GarryVolchara [31]

No, since their gravity is powerful enough to keep them together even while the universe expands as a whole. Space is not expanding within clusters of galaxies.

<h3>What is a galaxy?</h3>

A galaxy is a massive clump of gas, dust, and billions of stars and their solar systems bound together by gravity.

No, since their gravity is powerful enough to keep them together even while the universe expands as an entire.

Hence,space is not expanding within clusters of galaxies.

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength 435 nm is traveling in vacuum in the —z direction. The electric field has an amplitude of
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) 6.9*10^14 Hz

b) 9*10^-12 T

Explanation:

From the question, we know that

435 nm is given as the wavelength of the wave, at the same time, we also know that the amplitude of the electric field, E(max) has been given to be 2.7*10^-3 V/m

a)

To find the frequency of the wave, we would be applying this formula

c = fλ, where c = speed of light

f = c/λ

f = 3*10^8 / 435*10^-9

f = 6.90*10^14 Hz

b) again, to find the amplitude of the magnetic field, we would use this relation

E(max) = B(max) * c, magnetic field amplitude, B(max) =

B(max) = E(max)/c

B(max) = 2.7*10^-3 / 3*10^8

B(max) = 9*10^-12 T

c) and lastly,

1T = 1 (V.s/m^2)
