I think you're saying that once you start pushing on the cars, you want to be able to stop each one in the same time. 

This is sneaky.  At first, I thought it must be both 'c' and 'd'.  But it's not
kinetic energy, for reasons I'm not ambitious enough to go into.
(And besides, there's no great honor awarded around here for explaining
why any given choice is NOT the answer.)

The answer is momentum.

Momentum is (mass x speed).  Change in momentum is (force x time).

No matter the weight (mass) or speed of the car, the one with the greater
momentum is always the one that will require the greater (force x time)
to stop it.  If the time is the same for any car, then more momentum
will always require more force.

Calculate the required rate of return for Climax Inc., assuming that (1) investors expect a 4.0% rate of inflation in the future
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Required rate of return = 18.5 %

Explanation:

given,                            

rate of inflection = 4 %

risk free rate = 3 %                      

market risk premium = 5 %                    

firm has a beta  = 2.30                                  

rate of return has averaged 15.0% over the last 5 years

now,                                                                      

Nominal risk free rate = risk free rate  + inflation

                                    = 3%  +  4%

                                   = 7%

Required rate of return = Nominal risk free rate + β (RPM)

                                       = 7%       +          2.3 x 5.0%

Required rate of return = 18.5 %

A solenoid coil with 22 turns of wire is wound tightly around another coil with 340 turns. The inner solenoid is 25.0 cm long an
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

a) 1.34*10^-8 W

b) 1.18*10^-5 H

c) 20mV

Explanation:

a) To find the average magnetic flux trough the inner solenoid you the following formula:

\Phi_B=BA=\mu_oNIA

mu_o: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4pi*10^-7 T/A

N: turns of the solenoid = 340

I: current of the inner solenoid = 0.100A

A: area of the inner solenoid = pi*r^2

r: radius of the inner solenoid = 2.00cm/2=1.00cm=10^-2m

You calculate the area and then replace the values of N, I, mu_o and A to find the magnetic flux:

A=\pi(10^{-2}m)^2=3.141510^{-4}m^2\\\Phi_B=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(0.100A)(3.1415*10^{-4}m^2)=1.34*10^{-8}W\\

the magnetic flux is 1.34*10^{-8}W

b) the mutual inductance is given by:

M=\mu_o N_1 N_2 \frac{A_2}{l}

N1: turns of the outer solenoid = 22

N2: turns of the inner solenoid

A_2: area of the inner solenoid

l: length of the solenoids = 25.0cm=0.25m

by replacing all these values you obtain:

M=(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(340)(22)\frac{3.14*10^{-4}m^2}{0.25m}=1.18*10^{-5}H

the mutual inductance is 1.18*10^{-5}H

c) the emf induced can be computed by using the mutual inductance and the change in the current of the inner solenoid:

\epsilon_1=M\frac{dI_2}{dt}

by replacing you obtain:

\epsilon_1=(1.18*10^{-5}H)(1700A/s)=0.02V=20mV

the emf is 20mV

A ball is dropped from a building of height h. Assume the ball starts from rest and that air friction can be ignored. Derive an
agasfer [191]

Answer:

t=\sqrt{h/g}

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equation to solve this question:

y(t)=y_{o}+v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}

v_{o}=0    because the ball is dropped

a=-g         the acceleration is the gravity, negative because it points downwards

y_{o}=h     initial height

y(t)=h/2     final height

So:

h/2=h-1/2*g*t^{2}

t=\sqrt{h/g}

A 94.7 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.75 r
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The angular velocity of the platform is 1.114 rad/s.

Explanation:

Step 1:  Given data

Mass of the horizontal circular platform = 94.7 kg

Mass of the monkey = 21.1 kg

Initial angular velocity = 1.75 rad/s

A monkey drops a 9.25 kg bunch of bananas

They hit the platform at 4/5 of its radius from the center

Model the platform as a disk of radius 1.63 m

Step 2: Calculate the moment of inertia of the disk

I = ½ * m * r² = ½ * 94.7 * 1.63² = 125.80

Step 3: Calculate the initial angular momentum

I = 125.80 * 1.75 = 220.15

Step 4: Calculate the moment of inertia for the bananas

For the bananas, r = 4/5 * 1.63 = 1.304 m

I = 9.25 * 1.304² = 15.73

Step 5: Calculate Moment of inertia for the monkey

I = 21.1 * 1.63² = 56.06

Step 6: Total moment of inertia = 125.80 + 15.73 + 56.06 = 197.59

Step 7: Calculate final angular momentum = 197.59 * ω

197.59 * ω = 220.15

ω = 220.15 / 197.59

This is approximately 1.114 rad/s.
