Measuring current. A device called an ammeter is used to measure current. Some types of ammeter have a pointer on a dial, but most have a digital readout. To measure the current flowing through a component in a circuit, you must connect the ammeter in series with it.

Why does a balloon stick to a wall questions and problems answers?
Akimi4 [234]
<span>The reason that the balloon will stick to the wall is because the negative charges in the balloon will make the electrons in the wall move to the other side of their atoms and this leaves the surface of the wall positively charged.</span>

A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1,800-N forward push by the water on the propeller, and th
baherus [9]

(a)The acceleration of the 1,400-kg boat will be 0.425 m/sec²

(b) If it starts from rest, the distance through which the boat moves in 20.0 s will be 85 m.

(c)Velocity at the end of that time will be 8.5 m/sec.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of distance with respect to time is defined as speed. Speed is a scalar quantity. It is a time-based component. Its unit is m/sec.

Given data;

Forwad force acting on the boat,v₁ = 1,800-N

Resistive force acting on the boat,v₂ = 1,200-N

The acceleration of the boat,a

Mass of boat,m = 1,400-kg

Initial velocity of boat,u= 0 m/sec

Distance travelled by boat,S = ?

Time for the boat travels,t = 20.0 s

Final velocity,V = ? m/sec

The net force on the boat;

F = F₁ - F₂

F = 1800 N - 1200 N

F = 600 N

From the defination of force;

F= ma

a = F / m

a = 600 N / 1400 kg

a = 0.425 m/sec²

b)

The distance through which the boat moves is 20.0 s;

\rm x_f = x_ 0 + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2} at^2 \\\\ x_f  = \frac{1}{2}at^2 \\\\ x_f = 0+0 + \frac{1}{2} at^2 \\\\ x_f = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.425 \times (20 )^ 2 \\\\ x_f  = 85 \ m

c)

The velocity at the end of that time is found as;

\rm  v_f = v_ 0 + at \\\\ v_f =- 0+ at \\\\ v_f = 8.5 m/sec

Hence the acceleration of the boat, the distance through which the boat moves in 20.0 s, and velocity at the end of that time will be 0.425 m/sec²,85 m, and 8.5 m/sec.

An object is moving in a straight line along the y axis. As a function of time, its position is given by the equation y=3.0+4.8x
romanna [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Instant Velocity and Acceleration </u>

Give the position of an object as a function of time y(x), the instant velocity can be obtained by

v(x)=y'(x)

Where y'(x) is the first derivative of y respect to time x. The instant acceleration is given by

a(x)=v'(x)=y''(x)

We are given the function for y

y(x)=3.0+4.8x +6.4x^2

Note we have changed the last term to be quadratic, so the question has more sense.

The velocity is

v(x)=y'(x)=4.8+12.8x

And the acceleration is a(x)=v'(x)=12.8

light travels approximately 982,080,000 ft/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is the distance li
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The distance traveled in 1 year is: 3.143*10^{16}ft

Explanation:

Given

s = 982,080,000 ft/s --- speed

t = 32,000,000 s --- time

Required

The distance traveled

This is calculated as:

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

So, we have:

Distance = Speed * Time

This gives:

Distance = 982,080,000 ft/s * 32,000,000 s

Distance = 982,080,000  * 32,000,000ft

Distance = 3.143*10^{16}ft -- approximated
