The train traveled 500 kilometers north to Odessa in 2 hours . What’s the train’s speed ? What is the velocity ?

ElenaW [278]

Explanation:

Speed is distance over time.

500 km / 2 hr = 250 km/hr

Velocity is speed and direction.

250 km/hr north

how many years would it take to reach the star from earth, as measured by observers on the spacecraft

Assoli18 [71]

In other words, it would take Deep Space 1 more than 81,000 years to travel the 4.24 light-years between Earth and Proxima Centauri at its top speed of 56,000 km/h. In relation to human history, that would be more than 2,700 generations.

Nearly 40 trillion kilometers, or 4.4 light-years, separate us from Alpha Centauri. The NASA-Germany Helios probes, the fastest spacecraft to date to be launched into orbit, flew at a speed of 250,000 kilometers per hour. The probes would need 18,000 years to travel at such pace to arrive at the sun's nearest neighbor. The calculations reveal that it is almost impossible to reach the nearest star in a human lifetime, even with the most futuristic technologies.

Can a body have zero velocity and finite acceleration?Explain

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Kinda? Depends what the question is fully asking

Explanation:

Acceleration is a change in velocity. So I guess if the velocity of something is -2 m/s and its positively accelerating at a value of +1 m/s, then that means every second its velocity changes by +1m/s.

So that -2 m/s thing after one second will be going -1 m/s.

After another second it'll be going 0 m/s.

After another itll be going +1 m/s and so on.

So at one point for a brief moment, it can have an acceleration but be at 0 m/s velocity.

A charged cloud system produces an electric field in the air near earth's surface. a particle of charge -2.0 × 10-9 c is acted o

defon

Part a)

Magnitude of electric field is given by force per unit charge

$E = \frac{F}{q}$

$E = \frac{4.3 * 10^{-6}}{2 * 10^{-9}}$

$E = 2150 N/C$

Part b)

Electrostatic force on the proton is given as

F = qE

$F = 1.6 * 10^{-19} * 2150$

$F = 3.44 * 10^{-16} N$

PART C)

Gravitational force is given by

$F_g = mg$

$F_g = 1.6 * 10^{-27}*9.8$

$F_g = 1.57 * 10^{-26} N$

PART d)

Ratio of electric force to weight

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = \frac{3.44 * 10^{-16}}{1.57*10^{-26}}$

$\frac{F_e}{F_g} = 2.2 * 10^{10}$

Three long parallel wires each carry 2.0-A currents in the same direction. The wires are oriented vertically, and they pass thro

blagie [28]

Answer:

$21.2\times 10^{-6}$ T

Explanation:

$i$ = magnitude of current in each wire = 2.0 A

$a$ = length of the side of the square = 4 cm = 0.04 m

$r$ = length of the diagonal of the square = $\sqrt{2}$ a = $\sqrt{2}$ (0.04) = 0.057 m

$B$ = magnitude of magnetic field by wires at A and C

$B = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{a} \right )$

$B = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.04} \right )$

$B = 10\times 10^{-6}$ T

$B'$ = magnitude of magnetic field by wire at B

$B' = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{r} \right )$

$B' = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.057} \right )$

$B' = 7.02\times 10^{-6}$ T

Net magnitude of the magnetic field at D is given as

$B_{net} = \sqrt{B^{2}+B^{2}} + B'$

$B_{net} = \sqrt{2} B + B'$

$B_{net} = \sqrt{2} (10\times 10^{-6}) + (7.02\times 10^{-6})$

$B_{net} = 21.2\times 10^{-6}$ T
