A car accelerates from rest to a speed 20 m/s in 12 s. Find the distance the car travels this time

Physics
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago
6 0
The first thing we need to do is figure out what equation to use. We will use the following kinematic equation...

Δx = (final velocity + initial velocity) x time / 2

We know that the car accelerates from rest, so initial velocity = 0 m/s
We also know final velocity = 20 m/s and time = 12s

Now we just need to plug everything in.

Δx = (20 x 12)/2 = 120 meters

Does passing a magnet through a coil of wire break off it’s electric current
hichkok12 [17]
A magnetic field is actually generated by a moving current (or moving electric charge specifically). The magnetic field generated by a moving current can be found by using the right hand rule, point your right thumb in the direction of current flow, then the wrap of your fingers will tell you what direction the magnetic field is. In the case of current traveling up a wire, the magnetic field generated will encircle the wire. Similarly electromagnets work by having a wire coil, and causing current to spin in a circle, generating a magnetic field perpendicular to the current flow (again right hand rule).

So if you were to take a permenant magnet and cut a hole in it then string a straight wire through it... my guess is nothing too interesting would happen. The two different magnetic fields might ineteract in a peculiar way, but nothing too fascinating, perhaps if you give me more context as to what you might think would happen or what made you come up with this question I could help.

The mass of an object with 500 J of kinetic energy moving with a velocity of 5 m/s is
Ann [662]

40kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Kinetic energy  = 500J

Velocity = 5m/s

Unknown:

Mass of the object = ?

Solution:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion of a body. It is expressed as:

          K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv²

  m is the mass of the body

  v is the velocity

 To find the mass, make it the subject of the expression:

         m = \frac{2 K.E}{v[tex]^{2}}[/tex]

          m =   \frac{2 x 500}{5[tex]^{2}}[/tex] = 40kg

"Light traveling in a medium with a refractive index 1.11 is incident on a plate of another medium with index of refraction 1.66
Kamila [148]

Answer:

56°

Explanation:

Brewsters angle can be simply derived from

n1sin theta1= n2sintheta2= n2costheta1

because the reflected light will be 100% polarized if it is reflected at an angle 90o to the refracted light. Hence, Brewsters angle is

Tan theta= n2/n1

1.66/1.11= 1.495

Theta = 56°
