This is simply referring to the fact that the gravitational pull of the earth is greater as you get closer to the surface of the earth, meaning that acceleration increases as well.

An LR circuit contains an ideal 60-V battery, a 51-H inductor having no resistance, a 21-Ω resistor, and a switch S, all in ser
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

current in the circuit is 1.428 A

Explanation:

Given data

voltage = 60 V

resistor = 21 Ω

time = 0

to find out

current in the circuit

solution

we have given that

voltage across the resistor = voltage across the inductor

that is = 60 /2 = 30 V

we know voltage across resistor = IR

so I × R = V/2

and current I = 30 /21

so current = 1.428 A

current in the circuit is 1.428 A

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

0.0786

Explanation:

zero after the decimal place is not a significant figure since it comes before the real integer "7".

"5 " in ten thousandth place is rounded off to "6" because the next digit is also another "5",

so we get the three sfg 0.0786

A person wearing a shoulder harness can survive a car crash if the acceleration is smaller than -300 m/s . assuming constant acc
mars1129 [50]

To solve this problem, we use the equation:

<span>d = (v^2  - v0^2) / 2a</span>

 

where,

d = distance of collapse

v0 = initial velocity = 101 km / h = 28.06 m / s

v = final velocity = 0

a = acceleration = - 300 m / s^2

 

d = (-28.06 m / s)^2 / (2 * - 300 m / s^2)

<span>d = 1.31 m</span>
