1. If the object has positive acceleration there is a force acting on the object to make it move. A positive acceleration means the speed of that object is increasing by the acceleration's magnitude per second. The object is said to accelerating.

2. If the object has negative acceleration, the object is decelerating. It's speed is decreasing as the force going opposite of the object increases by the negative acceleration's magnitude per second.

3. If the object has no acceleration. The object is either at rest or has a constant velocity. There may be no force acting on the object or the net force on the object is zero.

A 1.10 μF capacitor is connected in series with a 1.92 μF capacitor. The 1.10 μF capacitor carries a charge of +10.1 μC on one p

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

(a). The potential on the negative plate is 42.32 V.

(b). The equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors is 0.69 μF.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 10.1 μC

Capacitor C₁ = 1.10 μF

Capacitor C₂ = 1.92 μF

Capacitor C₃ = 1.10 μF

Potential V₁ = 51.5 V

Let V₁ and V₂ be the potentials on the two plates of the capacitor.

(a). We need to calculate the potential on the negative plate of the 1.10 μF capacitor

Using formula of potential difference

$V_{1}=\dfrac{Q}{C_{1}}$

Put the value into the formula

$V_{1}=\dfrac{10.1 \times10^{-6}}{1.10\times10^{-6}}$

$V_{1}=9.18\ V$

The potential on the second plate

$V_{2}=V-V_{1}$

$V_{2}=51.5 -9.18$

$V_{2}=42.32\ v$

(b). We need to calculate the equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors

Using formula of equivalent capacitance

$C=\dfrac{C_{1}\timesC_{2}}{C_{1}+C_{2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$C=\dfrac{1.10\times10^{-6}\times1.92\times10^{-6}}{(1.10+1.92)\times10^{-6}}$

$C=6.99\times10^{-7}\ F$

$C=0.69\ \mu F$

Hence, (a). The potential on the negative plate is 42.32 V.

(b). The equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors is 0.69 μF.

A merry-go-round a.k.a "the spinny thing" is rotating at 15 RPM, and has a radius of 1.75 m

arlik [135]

Answer:

A.) 4 revolution

B.) 0.2 revolution

C.) 4 seconds

D.) 2.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a merry-go-round a.k.a "the spinny thing" is rotating at 15 RPM, and has a radius of 1.75 m

Solution

1 revolution = 2πr

Where r = 1.75m

A. How many revolutions will it make in 3 minutes?

(2π × 1.75) / 3

10.9955 / 3

3.665 RPM

Number of revolution = 15 / 3.665

Number of revolution = 4 revolution

B. How many revolutions will it make in 10.0 seconds?

First convert 10 seconds to minutes

10/60 = 0.167 minute

(2π × 1.75) / 0.167

10.9955 / 0.167

65.973

Number of revolution = 15 / 65.973

Number of revolution = 0.2 revolution

C. How long does it take for a person to make 1 complete revolution?

15 = 1 / t

Make t the subject of formula

t = 1/15

t = 0.0667 minute

t = 4 seconds

D. What is the velocity in m/s of person standing on its edge?

Velocity in m/ s will be:

Velocity = (15 × 2pi × r) / 60

Velocity = 164.9334 / 60

Velocity = 2.75 m/s

A 1120 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 27.40 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 490 kg truck m

asambeis [7]

Answer:

41.5 m/s

Explanation:

Since there are no external forces, momentum must be conserved.

Momentum P = mv.

Total momentum before the collision:

$P = m_{car}v_{car} + m_{tru}_{ck}v_{tru}_{ck} = 1120 * 27.4 + 490 * 20 = 40.488$

Total momentum after the collision:

$P = 1120 * 18 + 490 * v_{tru}_{ck} = 40.488$

solving for v:

$v_{truck} = 41.5$
