A dragster going 15m/s increases its velocity to 25 m/s north in 4 seconds.

1 answer:

3 0

Initial speed, v₁ = 15 m/s
Final speed, v₂ = 25 m/s
Duration of the acceleration, t = 4 s

Calculate the acceleration.
a = (v₂ - v₁)/t
= (25-15 m/s)/(4 s)
= 2.5 m/s²

Answer: 2.5 m/s²

A proton is projected in the positive x direction into a region of a uniform electric field E S 5 126.00 3 105 2 i^ N/C at t 5 0

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

(a). The magnitude of the acceleration of the proton is $5.74\times10^{13}\ m/s^2$

(b). The initial peed of the protion is $2.83\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(c). The time is $0.493\times10^{-7}\ sec$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field $E=-6.00\times10^{5}i\ N/C$

Time = 5.0 sec

Distance 7.00 cm

(a). We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of force

$F=F_{e}$

$ma=qE$

$a=\dfrac{Eq}{m}$

Where, E = electric field

m = mass of proton

q = charge of proton

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{-6.00\times10^{5}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{1.67\times10^{-27}}$

$a=-5.74\times10^{13}\ m/s62$

The magnitude of the acceleration of the proton is $5.74\times10^{13}\ m/s^2$

(b). We need to calculate the initial peed

Using equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as$

Where, s = distance

Put the value into the formula

$0-u^2=2\times(-5.74\times10^{13})\times7.00\times10^{-2}$

$u=\sqrt{2\times5.74\times10^{13}\times7.00\times10^{-2}}$

$u=2834783.94$

$u=2.83\times10^{6}\ m/s$

The initial peed of the protion is $2.83\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(c). We need to calculate the time interval over which the proton comes to rest

Using formula

$t=\dfrac{u}{a}$

Where, u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{2.83\times10^{6}}{5.74\times10^{13}}$

$t=0.493\times10^{-7}\ sec$

Hence, (a). The magnitude of the acceleration of the proton is $5.74\times10^{13}\ m/s^2$

(b). The initial peed of the protion is $2.83\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(c). The time is $0.493\times10^{-7}\ sec$ .

Plz help me it’s a true or false question A shorter wire will allow electricity to

mr Goodwill [35]

-- A shorter wire will allow electricity to move through at a higher rate than a longer wire . . . True, but "rate" is a poor way to say it. It should say "a higher current".

-- A short, thick, cold wire is the best conductor . . . True

-- How well a material conducts current is an internal factor affecting resistance . . . True

-- If you double the length of a wire, you cut the resistance in half . . . False. Double the length also means double the resistance.

-- If you double the thickness of a wire, you cut the resistance in half . . . True

-- Superconductors have no measurable resistance . . . True. They literally have NO resistance.

-- The higher the temperature of the conductor, the lower the resistance . . . False. Higher temperature means higher resistance, for almost all conductors.

-- The resistance in a wire with less thickness is less . . . False. We just said, up above in Question-#5, "If you double the thickness of a wire, you cut the resistance in half". Less thickness means more resistance. Just like a highway with fewer lanes.

-- Thickness, length, and temperature are internal factors that affect resistance . . . False. They affect resistance, but they're external factors.

-- When a light is first switched on the light bulb's filament has a lower resistance than after it gives off light for awhile . . . True. Look back 3 questions from here, where it says "Higher temperature means higher resistance".

What are two things that happen to the sugars that are made by the plant during photosynthesis?

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The sugars produced by photosynthesis can be stored, transported throughout the tree, and converted into energy which is used to power all cellular processes. Respiration occurs when glucose (sugar produced during photosynthesis) combines with oxygen to produce useable cellular energy.

Explanation:

I think this is correct lol.

When you look at the light from distant stars you are really looking back in time explain what this means

Leona [35]

Answer: Stars are in space for very long time, much longer than that one night. You are looking back in time because those stars have been there for so long that it’s like looking back in time, to when those stars were there.
