Use the formula:

$V=V_o+at\\
\\
15.27=30.55-6t\\
\\
6t=30.55-15.27\\
\\
6t=15.28\\
\\
t=\frac{15.28}{6}=2.54 \ s

allochka39001 [22]

The amount of electric current in the coil and the number of turns of wire
in the coil directly determine the strength of the electromagnet.

But the voltage of the battery determines the amount of current through
the wire, so the battery voltage is also indirectly involved.

A 2.99-m-long2.99-m-long rod, as measured in its rest frame, speeds by you longitudinally at 6.49×107 m/s6.49×107 m/s . You meas

Rasek [7]

Answer:

The contraction in the rod is 71 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

original length L'= 2.99 m

Speed $v= 6.49\times10^{7}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the length

Using expression for length contraction

$L'=\gamma L$

$L=\dfrac{L'}{\gamma}$

Where,

$\gamma=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$

$L=\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}L'$

Where, v = speed of observer

c = speed of the light

Put the value into the formula

$L=\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(6.49\times10^{7})^2}{(3\times10^{8})^2}}\times2.99$

$L=2.919\ m$

The expression for the contraction in the rod

$d =L'-L$

$d=2.99-2.919$

$d=0.071$

$d= 71\ mm$

Hence, The contraction in the rod is 71 mm.

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Abbie is one meter from the center o

Ainat [17]

Answer:

<em>Abbie’s acceleration is (1/2) Zak’s acceleration.</em>

Explanation

1. <u>Data</u>:

a) ω = constant

b) Abbie: r₁ = 1 m

c) Zak: r₂ = 2 m

d) Ac₁ = ? Ac₂

2. <u>Formulae</u>

Ac = ω² r

3. <u>Solution</u>:

a) Abbie:

Ac₁ = ω² r₁ = ω² (1m)

b) Zack:

Ac₂ = ω² r₂ = ω² (2m)

c) Divide Ac₁ / Ac₂

Ac₁ / Ac₂ = ω² (1m) / [ω² (2m) ] = 1/2

⇒ Ac₁ = (1/2) Ac₂ = Ac₂ / 2 = 0.5 Ac₂

A box of weight w=2.0N accelerates down a rough plane that is inclined at an angle ϕ=30∘ above the horizontal, as shown (Figure

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

<h2>The work done is 0.882 Joules.</h2>

Explanation:

To calculate the work, we need to find all forces that are involved in the movement.

As you can analyse, the body is the force that make the box to move, and the friction force is opposite to it, we cannot forget about the friction. So, we have to calculate the resultant force to this context.

$F_{R}=W_{x}-F_{k}$

So, to find $W_{x}$ we use: $W_{x}=W.sen\phi$ ; where $W=2N;\phi = 30\°$

$W_{x}=2N.sin30\°=1\frac{1}{2}N=1N$

The friction force would be:

$F_{k}=\mu_{k}N=(0.30)(1.7N)=0.51$

Then, the resultant force is:

$F_{R}=W_{x}-F_{k}$

$F_{R}=1N-0.51N=0.49N$

Now, we calculate the work: $W=F_{R} d$

$W=(0.49N)(1.8m)=0.882J$

Therefore, the work done is 0.882 Joules.
