Describe a situation in which an object's speed is constant but its velocity is changing.

1 answer:

5 0

1) If the object changes directions with the same speed, it will be changing its velocity, because velocity is a vector, which depends on both magnitude and direction. Speed is just magnitude regardless of direction.

2) Rotational motion.

If two objects of the same size move through the air at different speeds, which encounters the greater air resistance?a. The fas

blagie [28]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

(The faster object encounters more resistance)

Explanation:

Option A is correct. (The faster object encounters more resistance)

Air resistance depends on various factors:

Speed of the object
Cross-sectional area of the object
Shape of the object

Formula:

$F=\frac{1}{2}C_d\rho A v^{2}$

As the speed of the object increases the amount of Air resistance/drag increases on the object, as the above formula shows direct relation between Air resistance/drag and velocity i.e F ∝ v^2.

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.

grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution. By definition is defined as:

$\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}$

Where,

$\lambda$ = Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

$\theta$ = Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

$r = l\theta$

Relacing $\theta$

$r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})$

$r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}$

Replacing with our values we have that,

$r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})$

$r = 3680.91m$

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

$d = 2r$

$d = 2 * (3690.91)$

$d = 7361.8285m$

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!! What displacement did the object undergo in the time interval between t= 2.0s and t=8.0s?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Displacement s = (u+v)*t/2 (t refers to delta time)
= (0.45 + 2.7)*6/2
= 3.15*3
= 9.45 m

the car turned a corner going 10m/s if it took two seconds to turn what is its acceleration is this acceleration

exis [7]

The acceleration of this car is equal to 5 $m/s^2$ .

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Initial velocity = 0 m/s (assuming it's starting from rest).

Final velocity = 10 m/s.

Time = 2 seconds.

To determine the acceleration of this car:

<h3>How to calculate acceleration.</h3>

In Science, the acceleration of an object is calculated by subtracting the initial velocity from its final velocity and dividing by the time.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by this formula:

$a = \frac{V\;-\;U}{t}$

<u>Where:</u>

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$a = \frac{10\;-\;0}{2}$

Acceleration, a = 5 $m/s^2$

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in term

MArishka [77]

Answer:

$N_{y} =Ncos$ Ф,

$N_{x} =-Nsin$ Ф

Explanation:

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in terms of the length of the vector NNN and the angle θθtheta, with the components separated by a comma.

Vectors are quantities that have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

This a vector quantity

from the diagram the horizontal component of the length of the vector will be

$N_{y} =Ncos$ Ф

the vertical component will be

$N_{x} =-Nsin$ Ф

this is in the opposite direction because the x can be extrapolated to the negative axis
