A Roller Derby Exhibition recently came to town. They packed the gym for twoconsecutive weekend nights at South's field house. O

n Saturday evening, the68-kg Anna Mosity was moving at 17 m/s when she collided with 76-kg SandraDay O'Klobber who was moving forward at 12 m/s and directly in Anna's path.Anna jumped onto Sandra's back and the two continued moving together atthe same speed. Determine their speed immediately after the collision.

Answer:

14.4 m/s

Explanation:

mass of Anna (Ma) = 68 kg

speed of Anna (Va) = 17 m/s

mass of SandraDay (Ms) = 76 kg

speed of SandraDay (Vs) = 12 m/s

We can find their speed (V) immediately after collision from the conservation of momentum where

(Ma x Va) + (Ms + Vs) = (Ma + Ms) x V

where V = speed immediately after collision

(68 x 17) + (76 + 12) = (68 + 76) x V

2068 = 144 V

V = 2068 / 144 = 14.4 m/s

A)If the rms value of the electric field in an electromagnetic wave is doubled, by what factor does the rms value of the magneti
Ghella [55]

A) The magnetic field doubles as well

The relationship between rms value of the electric field and rms value of the magnetic field for an electromagnetic wave is the following:

E_{rms}=cB_{rms}

where

E_rms is the magnitude of the electric field

c is the speed of light

B_rms is the magnitude of the magnetic field

From the equation, we see that the electric field and the magnetic field are directly proportional: therefore, if the rms value of the electric field is doubled, then the rms value of the magnetic field will double as well.

B) The intensity will quadruple

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is given by

I=\frac{1}{2}c\epsilon_0 E_0^2

where

c is the speed of light

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

E_0 is the peak intensity of the electric field

The rms value of the electric field is related to the peak value by

E_{rms}=\frac{E_0}{\sqrt{2}}

So we can rewrite the equation for the intensity as

I=c\epsilon_0 E_{rms}^2

we see that the intensity is proportional to the square of the rms value of the electric field: therefore, if the rms value of the electric field is doubled, the average intensity of the wave will quadruple.

If an earthquake occurred in Miami, Florida, then how long would it take for a seismic station in Seattle, Washington, to pick u
Juliette [100K]

0.017s

Explanation:

Given parameter

Distance = 5000km = 5 x 10⁶m

Unknown:

time taken = ?

Solution:

We use the normal speed equation to solve this problem as we take the speed of the wave to be 3 x 10⁸m/s.

   Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time taken}

   Inputting the parameters:

             Time taken = \frac{distance }{velocity of the wave}

  Time taken = \frac{ 5 000000}{3 00000000} = 0.017s
