Answer:
a) 2.87 m/s
b) 3.23 m/s
Explanation:
The avergare velocity can be found dividing the length traveled d by the total time t.
a)
For the first part we easily know the total traveled length which is:
d = 50.2 m + 50.2 m = 100.4 m
The time can be found dividing the distance by the velocity:
t1 = 50.2 m / 2.21 m/s = 22.7149 s
t2 = 50.2 m / 4.11 m/s = 12.2141 s
t = t1 +t2 = 34.9290 s
Therefore, the average velocity is:
v = d/t =2.87 m/s
b)
Here we can easily know the total time:
t = 1 min + 1.16 min = 129.6 s
Now the distance wil be found multiplying each velocity by the time it has travelled:
d1 = 2.21 m/s * 60 s = 132.6 m
d2 = 4.11 m/s *(1.16 * 60 s) = 286.056 m
d = 418.656 m
Therefore, the average velocity is:
v = d/t =3.23 m/s
Answer:
An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it
Explanation:
This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of inertia.
It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore
- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it
- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it
This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:
F = ma
where
F is the net force on an object
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).
Answer:
1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m
Explanation:
= wavelength of the light = 450 nm = 450 x 10⁻⁹ m
n = order of the bright fringe = 1
θ = angle = 0.2°
d = separation between the slits
For bright fringe, Using the equation
d Sinθ = n
Inserting the values
d Sin0.2° = (1) (450 x 10⁻⁹)
d (0.003491) = (450 x 10⁻⁹)
d = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m
Answer:
2.2 s
Explanation:
Using the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of leg about perpendicular axis at one point = mL²/3 where m = mass of man = 67 kg and L = height of man = 1.83 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of leg from center of gravity of man = L/2 (center of gravity of a cylinder)
So, T = 2π√(I/mgh)
T = 2π√(mL²/3 /mgL/2)
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
T = 2π√(2 × 1.83 m/(3 × 9.8 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(3.66 m/(29.4 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(0.1245 s² ))
T = 2π(0.353 s)
T = 2.22 s
T ≅ 2.2 s
So, the period of the man's leg is 2.2 s
Answer:
A Shunt is a passive element, usually resistive, that is used to bypass current around another element, like a meter, that is not able to handle the full current flow. ... A Multiplier is an active element that amplifies a voltage or current to enable a less sensitive device or circuit to make use of it.
