Should you be worried if a n eighteen wheeler truck is riding close behind your car? Explain why or why not. Please help me D:

For some reasons, no. If the driver looks focused and has experience, then it would be okay. Again, it could be dangerous if you bump into the truck, it would cause damage to you and your passengers.

Mostly, I would agree with 'No'. :)

A subway car moves at a constant speed of 10 m/s over a period of 10 s. What is the instantaneous speed halfway through this mot

andre [41]

Answer: 10 m/s

We're told the speed is constant, so it's not changing throughout the time period given to us. So throughout the entire interval, the speed is 10 m/s.

An capacitor consists of two large parallel plates of area A separated by a very small distance d. This capacitor is connected t

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Will be doubled.

Explanation:

For a capacitor of parallel plates of area A, separated by a distance d, such that the charges in the plates are Q and -Q, the capacitance is written as:

$C = \frac{Q}{V} = e_0\frac{A}{d}$

where e₀ is a constant, the electric permittivity.

Now we can isolate V, the potential difference between the plates as:

$V = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}$

Now, notice that the separation between the plates is in the numerator.

Thus, if we double the distance we will get a new potential difference V', such that:

$V' = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{2d}{A} = 2*( \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}) = 2*V\\V' = 2*V$

So, if we double the distance between the plates, the potential difference will also be doubled.

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s

blondinia [14]

Answer:

1.2 m/s

0.31 m

0.15 m

Explanation:

Time period is

$T=2.5\times 2\\\Rightarrow T=5\ s$

Frequency is

$f=\dfrac{1}{T}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\Rightarrow f=0.2\ Hz$

Velocity is given by

$v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow v=0.2\times 6\\\Rightarrow v=1.2\ m/s$

The waves are traveling at 1.2 m/s

Amplitude is given by

$A=\dfrac{d}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{0.62}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=0.31\ m$

Amplitude is 0.31 m

If d = 0.3 m

$A=\dfrac{0.3}{2}=0.15\ m$

The amplitude would be 0.15 m. The speed would remain the same.
