Answer:

a) acceleration a = 2.68 m/s^2

b) fraction of g = 0.273 or 27.3%

c) distance travelled d = 134m (in SI unit)

d = 439.5ft (in feet)

Explanation:

a) converting 60mph (miles per hour) to m/s

∆v = 60 miles/hour × 1609.344meters/mile × 1/3600 seconds/hour

∆v = 26.82m/s

t = 10s

acceleration = change in velocity/time = ∆v/t

Acceleration a = 26.82/10 = 2.68m/s^2

b) acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8m/s^2

Fraction of g = a/g = 2.68/9.8 = 0.273

Fraction = 0.273 or 27.3%

c) distance travelled can be calculated using the equation below.

d = ut + 0.5at^2 ....1

Initial speed u = 0

time t = 10s

Acceleration a = 2.68m/s^2

d = distance covered.

From equation 1, putting u = 0

d = 0.5at^2

d = 0.5(2.68 × 10^2)

d = 134m

Converting meters to feet

d = 134m × 3.28ft/m

d = 439.5ft

Answer:

(a) 0.017m/s^2

(b) 17/100,000

Explanation:

(a) speed = 60mph = 60m/1h × 1h/3600s = 0.017m/s, time = 10s

Acceleration (a) = speed ÷ time = 0.017m/s ÷ 10s = 0.0017m/s^2

(b) g = 9.8m/s^2, a = 0.0017m/s^2

a/g = 0.0017/9.8 = 0.00017 = 17/100,000

Distance in foot = 0.17 × 3.2808ft = 0.558ft

What is the wavelength of light that is deviated in the first order through an angle of 13.1 ∘ by a transmission grating having

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The wavelength of light is $4.53\times10^{-7}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle = 13.1°

Number of slits = 5000

We need to calculate the wavelength of light

Diffraction of first order is defined as,

$d \sin\theta=n\lambda$ .....(I)

The separation of the slits

$d = \dfrac{1}{N}$

$d=\dfrac{1}{5000}$

$d=2\times10^{-6}\ m$

Now put the value in equation (I)

$2\times10^{-6}\sin13.1^{\circ}=\lambda$

Here, n = 1

$\lambda=4.53\times10^{-7}\ m$

Hence, The wavelength of light is $4.53\times10^{-7}\ m$

Why are the Soviets ahead in the race to capture the V-2 rocket and Werner von Braun?

Dahasolnce [82]

The second world war, and its war weapons, such as the v-2 rockets, had a great impact on the world until today, to answer this question we need that...

<h3>V-2 factory </h3>

On April 11, 1945, US troops took the town of Bleicherode, in the Kohnstein region, where the V-2 factory was located. From there about 100 complete V-2s and thousands of parts and equipment were "captured" as war loot and transferred to the United States, where they formed the basis for practical studies of the missile defense program.

With this information, we can say that because it was a base discovered by US troops, none of the alternatives is correct, as it was not the Soviets who discovered it, and that the base was also located in the central part of Germany.

<u>The </u><u>v-2 factory</u><u> was located in </u><u>Kohnstein, central germany,</u><u> by this claim, </u><u>none of the alternatives is correct.</u>

Question 10 of 34

labwork [276]

Julia walks from the park, which is six blocks east of her house, to the store, which is three blocks east of her house. Julia walks for 5 minutes. This walk's average speed will be 1.2 blocks per minute. Option B is correct.

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

Displacement is defined as the shortest distance between the two points. Distance is the horizontal length covered by the body. While displacement is the shortest distance between the two points.

Displacement is a vector quantity .its unit is m.

The average velocity on this walk will be;

$\rm v_{avg}= \frac{d}{t} \\\\ \rm v_{avg}= \frac{6 \ block+ 3 \ block }{5 \ minute } \\\\ v_{avg}=1.4 \ block /min$

Hence option B is correct.

a mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. if the mass of the object is 0.20kg and the spr

Reil [10]

Answer:

4.06 Hz

Explanation:

For simple harmonic motion, frequency is given by

$f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {k}{m}}$ where k is spring constant and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting 0.2 Kg for mass and 130 N/m for k then

$f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {130}{0.2}}=4.057670803\\f\approx 4.06 Hz$
