Answer:

<h2>a) Acceleration is 3.09 m/s²</h2><h2>b) Distance traveled is 45.05 m</h2><h2>c) Time taken to travel 250 m is 12.72 s</h2>

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 km/hr = 0 m/s

Final velocity, v = 60 km/hr = 16.67 m/s

Time, t = 5.4 s

Substituting

v = u + at

16.67 = 0 + a x 5.4

a = 3.09 m/s²

Acceleration is 3.09 m/s²

b) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 3.09 m/s²

Time, t = 5.4 s

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 5.4 + 0.5 x 3.09 x 5.4²

s = 45.05 m

Distance traveled is 45.05 m

c) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 3.09 m/s²

Displacement, s = 0.25 km = 250 m

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

250 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 3.09 xt²

t = 12.72 s

Time taken to travel 250 m is 12.72 s

a coin press creates a pressure of 3.20*10^8 Pa on a nickel of radius 0.0106 m. how much force does the press exert on the coin?

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

1.13 x 10⁵N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure of the coin press = 3.2 x 10⁸ Pa

radius of the nickel coin = 0.0106m

Unknown:

Force of the press on coil = ?

Solution:

Our knowledge of pressure will help us solve this problem.

Pressure is defined as the force applied per unit area on a body.

Pressure = $\frac{force}{area}$

Force = Pressure x Area

Since the pressure is known;

Area of the coin = Area of a circle = π r²

where r is the radius of the coin;

Area of the coin = π x 0.0106² = 3.53 x 10⁻⁴m²

Force = 3.2 x 10⁸ x 3.53 x 10⁻⁴ = 1.13 x 10⁵N

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is v = 1/ κμ0ε0 , where κ is the dielectri

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

$v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is given by :

$v=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{k\mu_o\epsilon_o}}$

Where

k is the dielectric constant of the substance.

v is the speed of light in water

$c=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1.78\times 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}$

$v=2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

So, the speed of light in water is $2.24\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

a force of 25 newtons moves a box a distance of 4 meeters in 5 seconds.the work done on the box is ? NM and the power is. ? nm/

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The work done on the box is 100 Nm

The power is 20 Nm/s

Explanation:

There is a force 25 newtons moves a box a distance of 4 meters in

5 seconds

The work done on the box is the product of the force and the distance

that the box moves ⇒ <em>work = force × distance</em>

The force = 25 newtons

the distance = 4 meters

Work = 25 × 4 = 100 NM

The force moves the box 4 meters in 5 seconds

The power is the rate of work

<em>The power = work ÷ time</em>

The work = 100 Nm

The time = 5 seconds

The power = 100 ÷ 5 = 20 Nm/s

<em>The power is 20 Nm/s</em>

Rainfall occurs on the earth due to effect of gravity

Anna [14]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Because </em><em>Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects, and Earth's gravity pulls matter downward, toward its center. It pulls precipitation down from clouds and pulls water downhill. Gravity also moves air and ocean water. ... Gravity pulls denser air and water downward, forcing less dense air and water to move upward.</em>

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

$GPE=mgh$

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point
