3. If a car is moving at 90km/hr and it rounds a corner, also at 90km/hr. Does it maintain

Answer:

Constant speed: yes

Constant velocity: no

Explanation:

Let's remind the definition of speed and velocity:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered (regardless of the direction) and the time taken:

s=\frac{d}{t}

- Velocity is a vector quantity, so it has both a magnitude and a direction. The magnitude is equal to the rate between the displacement of the object and the time taken, while the direction is the same as the displacement.

In this problem, we notice that:

- The speed of the car remains constant, as it is 90 km/h

- However, its direction of motion changes while the car travels round the corner: this means that the direction of the velocity is also changing, therefore velocity is not constant.

In the pair of supply and demand equations below, where x represents the quantity demanded in units of a thousand and p the unit
arlik [135]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity = 5

Equilibrium price = 40

Explanation:

given:

p = -x²-3x+80

p = 7x+5

For the equilibrium quantity the price from both the functions will be equal

thus, we have

-x² - 3x + 80 = 7x+5

⇒ x² +3x + 7x + 5 - 80 = 0

⇒x² + 10x - 75 = 0

now solving for x

x²- 5x + 15x -75 = 0

x(x-5) + 15(x-5) = 0

therefore, the two roots of the equation are

x = 5 and x = -15

since the quantity cannot be in negative

therefore, the equilibrium quantity will be = 5

now the equilibrium price can be found out by substituting the equilibrium quantity in any of the equation

thus,

p = -(5)² -3(5) + 80 = 40

or

p = 7(5) + 5 = 40

You're using a monochromatic beam of light with wavelength 500 nm in an interferometer. What is the miminum distance you would n
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Minimum distance needed to move one of the mirrors = 125 nm

Explanation:

Constructive interference occurs when the maxima (trough or crest) of two waves that are in phase add together so that the amplitude of the resulting wave is equal to the sum of the individual amplitudes.

Destructive interference occurs when the maxima (trough or crest) of two waves that are out of phase by 180⁰ or half a wavelength combine to produce a smaller amplitude than the individual amplitudes that combine. It can even produce a wave of zero amplitude.

Since the spot of constructive interference has been changed to destructive interference, Path difference = Wavelength/2

Path difference = 500nm/2 = 250 nm

Path difference = 250 * 10⁻⁹ m

Since there are two interferometer's mirrors and only one is moved, the minimum distance will be a half of the path difference.

That is, minimum distance = (path difference)/2

Minimum distance = (250 * 10⁻⁹)/2

Minimum distance = 125 * 10⁻⁹ m

Minimum distance = 125 nm
