As a truck rounds a curve, a box in the bed of the truck slides to the side farthest from the center of the curve. This movement of the box is a result of inertia.

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which says that:

"When an object is moving with constant velocity (or it is at rest), it will keep moving with same constant velocity (or it will remain at rest) unless acted upon an unbalanced force"

We can apply this law to the box in the bed of the truck. At first, the truck is moving in a straight line, with constant velocity: and so, the box is having the same motion.

However at some point, the truck begins the curve. If we neglect the friction between the box and the bed of the truck, then there is no other  force acting on the box in the horizontal direction: this means that the box will keep its horizontal motion, so it will continue moving forward with constant velocity, and therefore we will see the box sliding to the side farthest from the centre of the curve.

10. Hamilton How long does it take Lewis travelling at 156 m.p.h to cover 16 miles?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Hello!

Lewis is travelling at 165 mph, which means miles per hour, this says that he does 165 miles in one hour.

We want to know how much time takes to cover 16 miles.

this can be calculated as the quotient of the distance and the velocity; this is:

t = \frac{16 mi}{165 mi/h} = 0.096 h

if we want to write this in minutes, then:

we know that one hour has 60 minutes, then 0.096 hours has:

0.096h*60mins/1h = 5.8 minutes.

then Lewis needs 5.8 minutes in order to cover 16 miles if his speed is 156 miles per hour.

A boat race runs along a triangular course marked by buoys A, B, and C. The race starts with the boats headed west for 3700 mete
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The  last two bearings are

49.50° and 104.02°

Explanation:

Applying the Law of cosine (refer to the figure attached):

we have

x² = y² + z² - 2yz × cosX

here,

x, y and z represents the lengths of sides opposite to the angels X,Y and Z.

Thus we have,

cos X=\frac{x^2-y^2-z^2}{-2yz}

or

cos X=\frac{y^2 + z^2-x^2}{2yz}

substituting the values in the equation we get,

cos X=\frac{2900^2 + 3700^2-1700^2}{2\times 2900\times 3700}

or

cos X=0.8951

or

X = 26.47°

similarly,

cos Y=\frac{1700^2 + 3700^2-2900^2}{2\times 1700\times 3700}

or

cos Y=0.649

or

Y = 49.50°

Consequently, the angel Z = 180° - 49.50 - 26.47 = 104.02°

The bearing of 2 last legs of race are angels Y and Z.

A small loop of area A = 5.5 mm2 is inside a long solenoid that has n = 919 turns/cm and carries a sinusoidally varying current
Tema [17]

Answer:410.90\times 10^{-6} V

Explanation:

Given

A=5.5 mm^2

n=919 turns/cm\approx 85400 turns/m

\omega =226 rad/s

According to the Faraday law of induction, induced emf is given by

E=-\frac{\mathrm{d} \phi _B}{\mathrm{d} t}

Magnetic field \phi _B=B\cdot A

B=\mu _0ni=\mu _0ni_osin\left ( \omega t\right )

B=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 85400\times 3.08\times \sin (226t)

B=0.3305\sin (226t)

\phi _{B}=0.3305\times \sin (226t)\times 5.5\times 10^{-6}

\phi _{B}=1.818\times 10^{-6}\sin (226t)

E=-\frac{\mathrm{d} \phi _B}{\mathrm{d} t}

E=-1.818\times 10^{-6}\times 226\cos (226t)

E=-410.90\times 10^{-6}\cos (226t)

Amplitude of EMF induced=410.90\times 10^{-6} V

Select the correct answer. Eli and Andy want to find out which of the two is stronger. Eli pushes a table with a force of 120 ne
sergiy2304 [10]

Acceleration of the table: B. 0.50 meters/second2

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is the product of its mass and its acceleration. Mathematically:

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

For the table in this problem, we have:

\sum F = 125 N - 120 N = 5 N is the net force on the table, because there are two forces of 125 N and 120 N acting in opposite  directions

m = 10.0 kg is the mass of the table

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{5}{10.0}=0.50 m/s^2
