A state patrol officer saw a car start from rest at a highway​ on-ramp. She radioed ahead to another officer 20 mi along the hig

hway. When the car reached the location of the second officer 19 min​ later, it was clocked going 60​ mi/hr. The driver of the car was given a ticket for exceeding the 60​ mi/hr speed limit. Why can the officer conclude that the driver exceeded the speed​ limit?

Answer:

We know from the basic speed distance relation that

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Since the car started from rest and it covered the distance between the 2 officer's in 19 minutes we have speed of the car

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\\\Speed=\frac{20}{\frac{19}{60}}=63.16mph

Which clearly exceeds the limit of 60\frac{mi}{hr}

A car has a kinetic energy of 103kJ.
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: 1200kg

Explanation:

KE = (1/2)mv^2

103kJ = 103000J

103000J = (1/2) * m * (13.1m/s)^2

Solve for m

2. A wave on a rope has a wavelength of 2.0 m and a frequency of 2.0 Hz. What is the speed of the
TEA [102]

Answer:

4 m/s or 4 meters per second.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of wave, you multiply the wavelength in meters and the frequency of the Wave in Hertz. 2 times 2 equals 4. The wave speed is always in m/s considering that the wavelength is also in meters.

A 2-f and a 1-f capacitor are connected in series and a voltage is applied across the combination. the 2-f capacitor has:_______
VARVARA [1.3K]

Half the potential difference of the the1-µF

A circuit must have a capacitance of 2 F across a 1 kV potential difference for an electrical technician. He has access to a sizable number of 1F capacitors, each of which can sustain a potential difference of no more than 400 V. Please suggest a configuration that uses the fewest capacitors possible.

The 2-mu F capacitor has the following characteristics: none of the aforementioned; half the charge of the 1-mu F capacitor; twice the charge of the 1-mu F capacitor; and half the potential difference of the 1-mu F capacitor.

Q = C V, C = Capacitance of the capacitor gives the charge stored by a capacitor with an applied voltage V. V is the applied voltage.
