Two cars collide and come to a complete stop. where did all of their energy go?

1 answer:

3 0

Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.

Acceleration=9.81m/s^2
initial velocity=0m/s
time=.28s

We have to find final velocity.

The equation we use is

Final velocity=initial velocity+acceleration x time

Vf=0m/s+(9.81m/s^2)(.28s)
Vf=2.7468m/s

We would round this to:

Vf (final velocity)=2.7m/s

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive technique used to stimulate regions of the human brain. A small coil is

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.125 volts

Explanation:

The induced emf can be sufficient to stimulate neuronal activity.

One such device generates a magnetic field within the brain that rises from zero to 1.5 T in 120 ms.

We need to find the induced emf within a circle of tissue of radius 1.6 mm and that is perpendicular to the direction of the field. The formula for the induced emf is given by :

$\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$

Where

$\phi$ is magnetic flux

So,

$\epsilon=-\dfrac{d(BA)}{dt}\\\\=2\pi r\times \dfrac{dB}{dt}\\\\=2\pi \times 1.6\times 10^{-3}\times \dfrac{1.5-0}{120\times 10^{-3}}\\\\=0.125\ V$

So, the induced emf is equal to 0.125 volts.

What is 800,000,000 meters in scientific notation

Paladinen [302]

8 x 10^8 = 800,000,000

In Scientific Notation, your goal is to get your the number you're multiplying by 10 (8 in this case) to be between 0 and 10. Therefore, you would NOT have 80 x 10^7 because 80 is not between 0 and 10.
