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'. :)

As a way of determining the inductance of a coil used in a research project, a student first connects the coil to a 5.62 V batte

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Its inductance L = 166 mH

Explanation:

Since a current, I = 0.698 A is obtained when a voltage , V = 5.62 V is applied, the resistance of the coil is gotten from V = IR

R = V/I = 5.62/0.698 = 8.052 Ω

Since we have a current of I' = 0.36 A (rms) when a voltage of V' = 35.1 V (rms) is applied, the impedance Z of the coil is gotten from

V₀' = I₀'Z where V₀ = maximum voltage = √2V' and I₀ = maximum current = √2I'

Z = V'/I' = √2 × 35.1 V/√2 × 0.36 V = 97.5 Ω

WE now find the reactance X of the coil from

Z² = X² + R²

X = √(Z² - R²)

= √(97.5² - 8.05²)

= √(9506.25 - 64.8025)

= √9441.4475

= 97.17 Ω

Now, the reactance X = 2πfL where f = frequency of generator = 93.1 Hz and L = inductance of coil.

L = X/2πf

= 97.17/2π(93.1 Hz)

= 97.17 Ω/584.965 rad/s

= 0.166 H

= 166 mH

Its inductance L = 166 mH

Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard.

Vikentia [17]

The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the Third law that states:

When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

 $FA = -FB$

A projectile is launched straight up from a height of 960 feet with an initial velocity of 64 ft/sec. Its height at time t is h(

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

a) $t=2s$

b) $h_{max}=1024ft$

c) $v_{y}=-256ft/s$

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the initial velocity of the projectile and its initial height

$v_{y}=64ft/s\\h_{o}=960ft\\g=-32ft/s^2$

To find what time does it take to reach maximum height we need to find how high will it go

b) We can calculate its initial height using the following formula

Knowing that its velocity is zero at its maximum height

$v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})$

$0=(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(y-960ft)$

$y=\frac{-(64ft/s)^2-2(32ft/s^2)(960ft)}{-2(32ft/s^2)}=1024ft$

So, the projectile goes 1024 ft high

a) From the equation of height we calculate how long does it take to reach maximum point

$h=-16t^2+64t+960$

$1024=-16t^2+64t+960$

$0=-16t^2+64t-64$

Solving the quadratic equation

$t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

$a=-16\\b=64\\c=-64$

$t=2s$

So, the projectile reach maximum point at t=2s

c) We can calculate the final velocity by using the following formula:

$v_{y}^{2}=v_{o}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})$

$v_{y}=±\sqrt{(64ft/s)^{2}-2(32ft/s^2)(-960ft)}=±256ft/s$

Since the projectile is going down the velocity at the instant it reaches the ground is:

$v=-256ft/s$

Four point masses of 3.0 kg each are arranged in a square on masslessrods. The length of a side of the square is 0.50m. What is

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through B and C is given as

$I = mL^2 + mL^2 + m(0) + m(0)$

$I = 2mL^2$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through A and C is given as

$I = m(0^2) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(0) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 2m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = (3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to the plane of the square

$I = m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 4m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$
