Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Average speed  = 3.5miles per second

Unknown:

Initial speed  = ?

Average speed  = ?

Final speed in the interval = ?

Solution:

Since the bicyclist started from rest and speeds up steadily, it is correct to assume that her starting or initial speed is 0m/s.

At a state of rest, a body has no speed.

Average speed is the sum total of the speed covered at each time interval. This value is given already to be 3.5miles per second.

Final speed is the speed before the bicycle halts. This speed will be the same as the average speed here which is 3.5miles per second.

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

for Block B, we just have the force from block A acting on it 
F(ab)d= .5(1)vf² - .5(1)(2²) 
F(ab)d= .5vf² - 2 

Block A, we have the force from the hand going in one direction and the force of block B on A going the opposite direction 

10-F(ba)d = .5(4)vf² - .5(4)(2²) 
10-F(ba)d = 2vf² - 8 
F(ba)d = 18 - 2vf² 

now we have two equations: 
F(ba)d = 18 - 2vf² 
F(ab)d= .5vf² - 2 

since the magnitude of F(ba) and F(ab) is the same, substitute and find vf (I already took into account the direction when solving for F(ab) 

10-.5vf² + 2 = 2vf² - 8 
12 - .5vf² = 2vf² - 8 
20 = 2.5vf² 
vf² = 8 

they both will have the same velocity 
KE of block A= .5(4)(2.828²) = 16 J 
KE of block B=.5(1)(2.828²) = 4 J</span>

An empty plastic or glass dish being removed from a microwave oven is cool to the touch. How can this be possible
Luda [366]
Plastic and glass are both poor heat conductors. They are insulators which means their electrons don’t move as freely as conductors.

Colt1911 [192]
We can compare the two by their kinetic energies. The kinetic energy is the energy when an object is in motion. It is expressed as the product of the mass of the object and the square of the velocity divided by two. We assume a velocity of 1 m/s for this problem.<span>

KE = mv^2/2
KE1 = 10 (1)^2
KE1 = 10 J

16. Two capacitors have an equivalent
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

C1 + C2 = 30     parallel connection

C1 * C2 / (C1 + C2) = 7.2  series connection

C1 * C2 = 7.2 * (C1 + C2) = 216

C2 + 216 / C2 = 30    using first equation

C2^2 + 216 = 30 C2

C2^2 - 30 C2 + 216 = 0

C2 = 12 or 18    solving the quadratic

Then C1 = 18 or 12
