A certain sports car can accelerate from 0 m/s to 27.7 m/sec with an acceleration of 11.2 m/s². How long does this acceleration

take in seconds?

Answer:

Δt = 2.47 s

Explanation:

The problem involves just the formula of the acceleration:

$a = \frac{Δv}{Δt}$

$Δv = (27.7 - 0) \: m/s$

You want to know Δt, knowing the time and the speed. So:

$Δt = Δv/a$

Δt = 2.47 s

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The gplanet is 0.193 m/s^2

Explanation:

The speed of the pulse is:

$v=\frac{lengthofthewipe}{traveltime} =\frac{1.6}{0.0656} =15.24m/s$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{MgL}{m} } \\v^{2} =\frac{MgL}{m} \\g=\frac{mv^{2} }{ML}$

where

m=mass of the wire=4 g= 4x10^-3 kg

M=mass of the object= 3 kg

Replacing values:

$g=\frac{4x10^{-3}*15.24^{2} }{3*1.6} =0.193 m/s^{2}$

Why are insulators important?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

An insulator opposes the flow of electricity. Insulators are important to keep us safe from electricity. The wire that carries electricity to your computer or television is covered with a rubber-like insulator that protects you from getting electrocuted. Good insulators include glass, the air, and paper.

A tank holds a 1.44-m thick layer of oil that floats on a 0.98-m thick layer of brine. Both liquids are clear and do not intermi

Answer:

Angle of ray makes with the vertical is 62.1 degree

Explanation:

As per the ray diagram we know that the angle of incidence on oil brine interface will be given as

$tan\theta_i = \frac{0.7}{0.98}$

$\theta_i = 35.5^0$

now by Snell'a law at that interface we have

$\mu_1 sin\theta_i = \mu_2 sin \theta_r$

now we will have

$1.52 sin35.5 = 1.40 sin\theta_r$

$\theta_r = 39.12^0$

now this is the angle of incidence for oil air interface

so now again by Snell's law we will have

$\mu_2 sin\theta_i' = \mu_{air} sin\theta$

$1.40 sin39.12 = 1 sin\theta$

$\theta = 62.1^0$
