How is velocity and instantaneous speed alike

Physics
1 answer:
allsm [11]3 years ago
5 0
<span>velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement irrespective of the length of the path travelled while speed is the average rate of covering distance. but in the liming case where the instantaneous velocity is given as v=dx/dt where dx is the small displacement in a small interval dt, both the speed and velocity have the same magnitude and the direction of velocity is the direction of the tangent to the corresponding displacement-time curve.</span>

Which situation describes the highest rate of power?
Darya [45]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

Explanation :

Power : It is defined a the rate of doing work per unit time.

Formula used :

P=\frac{w}{t}

where,

P = power

w = work done

t = time

Now we have to determine the rate of power for the following options.

(A) A machine does 200 joules of work in 10 seconds.

P=\frac{200}{10}=20W

(B) A machine does 400 joules of work in 10 seconds.

 P=\frac{400}{10}=40W

(C) A machine does 200 joules of work in 5 seconds.

 P=\frac{200}{5}=40W

(D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

P=\frac{400}{5}=80W

From this we conclude that, a machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds has the highest rate of power.

Hence, the correct option is, (D)

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. T
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

kinetic energy required = 1.80 MeV

= 1.8 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.88 x 10⁻¹³ J

If v be the velocity of proton

1/2 x mass of proton x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

= .5 x 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x v² = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

v² = 3.45 x 10¹⁴

v = 1.86 x 10⁷ m /s

If V be the potential difference required

V x e = kinetic energy . where e is charge on proton .

V x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = 2.88 x 10⁻¹³

V = 1.8 x 10⁶ volt .

A 5 kg block is pushed across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. What is the frictional forc
julsineya [31]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

mass, M = 5Kg

horizontal force, F_h = 40N

acceleration, a =5 m/s^2

frictional force, F_f =?

net force = ma

net force = F_h - F_f = 40N - F_f

40  - F_f = 5 x 5

- F_f = 25 - 40

multiply both side by -1

F_f = 40 - 25 = 15

the frictional force is 15N

Is the lithosphere part of the mantle or the crust? Explain.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Both

Explanation:

The lithosphere is part of both the crust and the mantle.

It is the surface layer of the earth and also the most rigid layer. It is formed by the crust and the outermost part of the mantle. It is divided into two types: continental lithosphere and oceanic lithosphere.

The oceanic lithosphere has an approximate thickness of 50 - 100km, and the continental olithosphere of 40 - 200km.
