Freefall can only be experienced when gravity is the only force acting on you. Weightlessness can be experienced on earth with air resistance and gravity like on a rollercoaster when you are just about to go down the hill.

Free fall means your falling because of gravity and weight and will eventually hit the ground without any protection. weightlessness means a place or time where there is no gravity and you're floating and not falling.

A magnetic field is directed perpendicular to the plane of a 0.15-m × 0.30-m rectangular coil consisting of 240 loops of wire. T
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

7.344 s

Explanation:

A = 0.15 x 0.3 m^2 = 0.045 m^2

N = 240

e = - 2.5 v

B1 = 0.1 T

B2 = 1.8 T

ΔB = B2 - B1 = 1.8 - 0.1 = 1.7 T

Δt = ?

e = - dФ/dt

e = - N x A x ΔB/Δt

- 2.5 = - 240 x 0.045 x 1.7 / Δt

2.5 = 18.36 / Δt

Δt = 7.344 s

Which unit of measurement is included in the International System of Unit! (si)?
ozzi

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

There are several measures for the international system of measures. Let's name some and their representation symbol.

meter = [m]

time = [s] = seconds

mass = [kg] = kilograms

Temperature = [°C] = celcius degrees

Power = [W] = watts.

Force = [N] = Newtons

Sam is recklessly driving 60 mph in a 30 mph speed zone when he suddenly sees the police. he steps on the brakes and slows to 30
barxatty [35]
For this problem, we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations used for this problem are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
where
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity
t is the time

The solution is as follows;

a = (60mph - 30 mph)/(3 s * 1 h/3600 s)
a = 36,000 mph²

2(36,000 mph²)(x) = 60² - 30²
Solving for x,
x = 0.0375 miles

when a circular plate of metal is heated in an oven, its radius increases at .03 cm/min, at what rate is the area increasing whe
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Rate of change of area will be 9.796cm^2/min

Explanation:

We have given rate of change of radius \frac{dr}{dt}=0.03cm/min

Radius of the circular plate r = 52 cm

Area is given by A=\pi r^2

So \frac{dA}{dt}=2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}

Puting the value of r and \frac{dr}{dt}

\frac{dA}{dt}=2\times 3.14\times 52\times 0.03=9.796cm^2/min

So rate of change of area will be 9.796cm^2/min
