When Jim and Rob ride bicycles, Jim can only accelerate at three-quarters the acceleration of Rob. Both startfrom rest at the bo

ttom of a long, straight road with constant upward slope. If Rob takes 5.0 minutes to reach thetop, how much earlier should Jim start in order to reach the top at the same time as Rob

Answer:

46.4 s

Explanation:

5 minutes = 60 * 5 = 300 seconds

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. And \theta be the slope of the road, s be the distance of the road, a be the acceleration generated by Rob, 3a/4 is the acceleration generated by Jim .  Both of their motions are subjected to parallel component of the gravitational acceleration gsin\theta

Rob equation of motion can be modeled as s = a_Rt_R^2/2 = a300^2/2 = 45000a[/tex]

Jim equation of motion is s = a_Jt_J^2/2 = (3a/4)t_J^2/2 = 3at_J^2/8

As both of them cover the same distance

45000a = 3at_J^2/8

t_J^2 = 45000*8/3 = 120000

t_J = \sqrt{120000} = 346.4 s

So Jim should start 346.4 – 300 = 46.4 seconds earlier than Rob in other to reach the end at the same time

Answer:

i) Distancia, ii) La cinta métrica es impracticable.

Explanation:

i) El concepto físico que se construye únicamente del punto de salida y el punto de llegada a la Luna es el concepto de desplazamiento, definido como la distancia en línea recta de un punto en el espacio con respecto a un punto de referencia (la Tierra en este caso).

La distancia puede involucrar trayectorias curvilíneas entre los puntos mencionados.

ii) Por último, el uso de una cinta métrica es impracticable debido a la cantidad de material a utilizar y los efectos gravitacionales, electromagnéticos y mecánicos que inducen a una deflexión o una ruptura de esa cinta debido a la magnitud de la distancia entre las superficies del planeta y el satélite, respectivamente.

En este caso, es mejor utilizar la medición con tecnología láser, basadas en el fenómeno del electromagnetismo.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This is a representation of Gauss law.

Gauss’s law does hold for moving charges, and in this respect Gauss’s law is more general than Coulomb’s law. In words, Gauss’s law states that: The net outward normal electric flux through any closed surface is proportional to the total electric charge enclosed within that closed surface. The law can be expressed mathematically using vector calculus in integral form and differential form, both are equivalent since they are related by the divergence theorem, also called Gauss’s theorem.

In order to waken a sleeping child, the volume on an alarm clock is doubled. Under this new scenario, how much more energy will
Kamila [148]

Answer:4 times more energy will be striking the childbearing

Explanation:

Because Volume is directly proportional to amplitude of sound. Energy is proportional to amplitude squared. If you triple the amplitude, you multiply the energy by 4
