Answer:

D = 4 m

Explanation:

Speed of cart in air track v₁ = 0.5 m/s

Speed of cart moved when air is turned off v₂= 1 m/s

The distance travelled by the cart is d₁ = 1 m

Work done (W) = F x d

Work done is equal to the kinetic energy

F x d = 1/2mv²

velocity is directly proportional to distance

therefore,

v₁²/ v₂²  = d₁ / d₂

d₂ = d₁v₂² / v₁²

= 1 m x (1 m /s)² / (0.5 m/s)²

= 4 m

A uniform electric field of strength E points to the right. An electron is fired with a velocity v0 to the right and travels a d
zvonat [6]

Answer:

<u />D_l=d<u />

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

The Electric field of strength direction =Right

The Velocity of The First Electron=V_0

The Velocity of The Second Electron=V_0

Therefore

V_{e1}=V_{e2}

Generally, the equation for the Horizontal Displacement of electron is mathematically given by

D=\frac{at^2}{2}

Where

Acceleration is given as

a=\frac{V_o}{2d}

And

Time

T=\frac{d}{v_0}

Therefore horizontal displacement towards the left is

D_l=\frac{(\frac{V_o}{2d})(\frac{d}{v_0})^2}{2}

<u />D_l=d<u />

Two resistors A and B are arranged in series in one branch of a parallel arrangement. The other branch contains a single resisto
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A and B are in series , Total resistance = Ra + Rb

This resistance is in parallel with single resistor C

Equivalent resistance Re = Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )]

Now this combination is in series in single resistance D .

Total resistance = Rd + Re

= Rd + { Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )] }

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from 0 to 5.40 m/s
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) 378Ns

b) 477.27N

Explanation:

Impulse is the defined as the product of the applied force and time taken. This is expressed according to the formula

I = Ft = m(v-u)

m is the mass = 70kg

v is the final velocity = 5.4m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

Get the impulse

I = m(v-u)

I = 70(5.4-0)

I = 70(5.4)

I = 378Ns

b) Average total force is expressed as

F = ma (Newton's second law)

F = m(v-u)/t

F = 378/0.792

F = 477.27N

Hence the average total force experienced by a 70.0-kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates is 477.27N
