First, let's express the movement of Car A and B in terms of their position over time (relative to car B)
For car A: y=20x-200   Car A moves 20 meters every second x, and starts 200 meters behind car B
For Car B: y= 15x      Car B moves 15 meters every second and starts at our basis point

Set the two equations equal to one another to find the time x at which they meet:
20x - 200 = 15x
200 = 5x 
x= 40
At time x=40 seconds, the cars meet. How far will Car A have traveled at this time? 
Car A moves 20 meters every second:
20 x 40 = 800 meters

a wire is carrying a 2.45 A current. at what distance from the wire is the magnetic field 1.00x10^-6t
balu736 [363]

Answer:

0.49m

Explanation:

So you need to change the original equation for finding fields to find distance, and then just plug in the numbers

Which equals 0.49meters

Also it was right on Acellus :)

Hope this helps

Which of the following is same dimension quantity?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Find the dimension of each and every quantity in all the options to check whether they are the same or not. We can use any one formula of each identity to find its dimension.

Complete step by step solution:

To find the dimension of a quantity, we can use any formula related to that quantity but we will use the easiest ones to save time.

Force-

from Newton’s law of motion,

F=maF=ma

Dimension of force =[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]=[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]

Work done-

W=F×sW=F×s

Dimension of work=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]

Momentum-

p=mvp=mv

Dimension of momentum=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]

Impulse-

I=F×tI=F×t

Dimension of impulse=[MLT−2][T]=[
