A truck covers 47.0 m in 8.60 s while smoothly slowing down to final speed of 2.30 m/s. (a) Find its original speed.

Physics

Kruka [31]3 years ago

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, s = 47 m

Time taken, t = 8.6 s

Final speed of the truck, v = 2.3 m/s

Let u is the initial speed of the truck and a is its acceleration such that :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}.............(1)

Now, the second equation of motion is :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Put the value of a in above equation as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times t^2

s=\dfrac{t(u+v)}{2}

u=\dfrac{2s}{t}-v

u=\dfrac{2\times 47}{8.6}-2.3

u = 8.63 m/s

So, the original speed of the truck is 8.63 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:magnitude -5; angle 160°

Explanation:

Vector A is described as having magnitude 5 and angle -20°.

To get an equivalent vector, we either leave the magnitude at 5 and add 360° to the angle, or we reverse the magnitude to -5 and add 180° to the angle.

5 @ -20° = 5 @ 340°

5 @ -20° = -5 @ 160°

The third one is the answer.

Which causes a rainbow in the sky?
Alina [70]
Sunlight (white light) refracts through droplets of water in the atmosphere and this causes a rainbow in the sky. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the third option or option "C". The rainbow is caused by the reflection, refraction and dispersion of sunlight in water droplets that are present in the atmosphere.

How does a solenoid convert energy from one form to another?​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

A solenoid is a device comprised of a coil of wire, the housing and a moveable plunger (armature). When an electrical current is introduced, a magnetic field forms around the coil which draws the plunger in. More simply, a solenoid converts electrical energy into mechanical work.

Explanation:

The coil is made of many turns of tightly wound copper wire. When an electrical current flows through this wire, a strong magnetic field/flux is created.

The housing, usually made of iron or steel, surrounds the coil concentrating the magnetic field generated by the coil.

The plunger is attracted to the stop through the concentration of the magnetic field providing the mechanical force to do work.

What's the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 10 and velocity of 200m/s?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 20 \ Hz}}

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave can be found using the following formula.

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where <em>f</em> is the frequency, <em>v</em> is the velocity/wave speed, and λ is the wavelength.

The wavelength is 10 meters and the velocity is 200 meters per second.

  • 1 m/s can also be written as 1 m*s^-1

Therefore:

v= 200 \ m*s^{-1} \\\lambda = 10 \ m

Substitute the values into the formula.

f=\frac{200 \ m*s^{-1}}{10 \ m}

Divide and note that the meters (m) will cancel each other out.

f=\frac{200 \ s^{-1}}{10 \ }

f=20 \ s^{-1}

  • 1 s^-1 is equal to Hertz
  • Therefore, our answer of 20 s^-1 is equal to 20 Hz

f= 20 \ Hz

The frequency of the wave is <u>20 Hertz</u>
