A train is accelerating at a rate of 2 km/hr/s.  If its initial velocity is 20 km/hr, what is its velocity after 30 seconds?

Physics
1 answer:
Aleksandr [31]4 years ago

"2 km/hr/s" means that in each second, its engines can increase its speed by 2 km/hr.

If it keeps doing that for 30 seconds, its speed has increased by 60 km/hr.

On top of the initial speed of 20 km/hr, that's 80 km/hr at the end of the 30 seconds.

This whole discussion is of <em>speed</em>, not velocity. Surely, in high school physics,
you've learned the difference by now. There's no information in the question that
says anything about the train's <em>direction</em>, and it was wrong to mention velocity in
the question.  This whole thing could have been taking place on a curved section
of track. If that were the case, it would have taken a team of ace engineers, cranking
their Curtas, to describe what was happening to the velocity.  Better to just stick with
speed.

What is the wavelength of a radio photon from an "am" radio station that broadcasts at 1120 kilohertz?
Alex73 [517]

The wavelength of the radio photon  is 268 m.

Electromagnetic waves travel with the speed of 3×10⁸m/s in vacuum. The speed of a wave <em>c i</em>s related to its frequency<em> f</em> and wavelengthλ as follows:

c=f\lambda

Thus the wavelength is given by,

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}

Substitute 3×10⁸m/s for <em>c</em> and 1120×10³Hz for <em>f</em>.

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}\\ =\frac{3*10^8m/s}{1120*10^3Hz} \\ =267.8 m\\ =268 m

Thus the wavelength of the radio photon from an AM station is 268 m

Which of the following is the most important difference between a permanent magnet and a electromagnet
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Explanation: the major difference between an electromagnet and permanent magnet is that the former can have a magnetic field when electric current flows through it and disappears when the flow of the current stops. ... It will always displays the magnetic behaviour.

Which best explains why magnets can push on or pull other magnets without touching them?
V125BC [204]
Magnetism is a property of materials that respond at an atomic or subatomic level to an applied magnetic field. For example, the most well known form of magnetism is ferromagnetism such that some ferromagnetic materials produce their own persistent magnetic field. However, all materials are influenced to greater or lesser degree by the presence of a magnetic field. Some are attracted to a magnetic field (paramagnetism); others are repulsed by a magnetic field (diamagnetism); others have a much more complex relationship with an applied magnetic field. Substances that are negligibly affected by magnetic fields are known as non-magnetic substances. They include copper, aluminium, gases, and plastic. 

<span>The magnetic state (or phase) of a material depends on temperature (and other variables such as pressure and applied magnetic field) so that a material may exhibit more than one form of magnetism depending on its temperature, etc.
Or
 </span><span>If it's a multiple choice question this is the best answer: </span>
<span>A magnetic field surrounds each magnet, which affects other objects with magnetic fields

Quando ocorre um eclipse total da lua?
MissTica
Um eclipse solar ocorre quando a lua fica entre a Terra e o sol, e a lua projeta uma sombra sobre a Terra. Um eclipse solar só pode ocorrer na fase da lua nova, quando a lua passa diretamente entre o sol e a Terra e suas sombras caem sobre a superfície da Terra.
