When the point of reference (the observer) is in motion, it flips the "rules" of vector addition (you ADD the vectors going in o

pposite directions, and SUBTRACT vectors going in the same direction).

Answer:

the statement is TRUE

Explanation:

When we move in the same direction, the relative speed of the two vehicles is lower, so we must subtract their speeds, if the result is positive the vehicles approach and if it is negative they move away.

      v_relative = v₁ - v₂

When the two vehicles go in opposite directions, the speed is much higher, so we must add their speeds

     v_relative = v₁ - (-v₂))

     v_relative = v₁ + v₂

therefore the statement is TRUE

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs

A sled is at rest at the top of a 2 m high slope. The sled has a mass of 45 kg. The sled's potential energy isJ. (Formula: PE =
elixir [45]
Data:

h = 2m
m = 45 Kg
PE = ? (Joule)

Adopting, gravity (g) ≈ <span>9,8 m/s² 
</span>
Formula: PE_{grav}  = mass * g * height

Solving:

PE_{grav} = mass * g * height
PE_{grav} = 45*9,8*2
PE_{grav} = 882J

Answer:
<span>The sled's potential energy is 882 Joules</span>

(Thought question) At noon On June 21 will the shadow length of 42 degrees north latitude be shorter or longer than it is on Mar
g100num [7]

Answer: Shorter

Explanation: Shadow is formed when an light source is obstructed by an opaque object. The closer the source, shorter is the length of the shadow. In fact, when the source is exactly overhead, no shadow of the object is formed.

June 21 marks the Summer solstice which means the Sun passes directly overhead Tropic of cancer (23.5° N) at noon. March 21 marks the equinox which means sun passes directly overhead equator (0°).

Shadow length of an object at 42° Northern latitude will be shorter on June 21 because the Sun will be closer to this latitude as compared to March 21.

Two circles are drawn in a 12-inch by 14-inch rectangle. Each circle has a diameter of 6 inches. If the circles do not extend be
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

d = 10 inch

Explanation:

The farthest distance between the centers, is along the diagonal of the rectangle. Therefore, we need to calculate the diagonal of the rectangle, but counting the fact that we have both circles.

So if, one side is 12 inch, and the other is 14 inch, we can use the Pitagoras theorem which is:

d = √(a²) + (b)²

Where a and b, are the lenght of the rectangle, but without the lenght  of the diameter of both circles.

With this, the expression is this:

d = √(14 - 6)² + (12 - 6)²

d = √64+36

d = √100

d = 10 inches

A cart is moving to the right with a constant speed of 20 m s . A box of mass 80 kg moves with the cart without slipping. The co
nignag [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box m=80 kg

coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.15

coefficient of Static friction \mu _s=0.30

cart is moving with constant velocity therefore Net Force is zero

Since there is no net acceleration therefore friction force will be zero

mathematically

f_r=ma

where f_r=frictional\ Force

a=acceleration

a=0

f_r=0
