An elevator moving down passes its neighbor, an elevator moving up. Their speed relative to one another is 8 m/s. What is the ve

locity of each elevator relative to someone standing on the first floor? Assume that the elevators are traveling at the same speed, and that the upward direction is positive.

The person standing still would see the elevator move at 4 m/s, because if the elevators are moving in opposite directions at 4 m/s each then for each other it would look like 8 m/s

What is the kinetic energy of a toy truck with a mass of 0.75 kg and a velocity of 4 m/s? (Formula: )
Dvinal [7]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object or particle when it is in motion.

Mathematically,   Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mass \times (velocity)^{2}

It is given that toy truck has mass = 0.75 kg, and velocity = 4 m/s.

Calculate the kinetic energy as follows.

           Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mass \times (velocity)^{2}

                                    = \frac{1}{2}0.75 kg \times (4 m/s)^{2}

                                     = \frac{1}{2}0.75 kg \times 16 m^{2}/s^{2}

                                     = 0.75 kg \times 8 m^{2}/s^{2}

                                     =  6 kg m^{2}/s^{2}

or,       Kinetic energy = 6 joules

Thus, we can conclude that kinetic energy of toy truck is 6 J.

A bike race against the clock takes place on a straight road. Yan drives at 37 km / h and he starts the course 30s before Christ
joja [24]

Given data:

Yan speed;

u_1=37\text{ km/h}

Christopher speed;

u_2=38.9\text{ km/h}

Christophe starts 30 s later than Yan. Therefore, Christophe takes 30 s less than Yan to reach the same distance.

Part (A)

The distance is given as,

d=ut

Let both Yan and Christophe meet at d distance from the start position. Therefore,

u_1t=u_2(t-30)

Substituting all known values,

\begin{gathered} (37\text{ km/h})t=(38.9\text{ km/h})\times(t-30) \\ \frac{(37\text{ km/h})}{(38.9\text{ km/h})}=\frac{(t-30)}{t} \\ 0.95=1-\frac{30}{t} \\ \frac{30}{t}=1-0.95 \\ \frac{30}{t}=0.05 \\ t=\frac{30}{0.05} \\ t=600\text{ s} \end{gathered}

Therefore, 600 s after Yan's departure Christophe will join him.

Part (B)

The distance is given as,

d=u_1t

Substituting all known values,

\begin{gathered} d=(37\text{ km/h})\times(600\text{ s}) \\ =(37\text{ km/h})\times(600\text{ s})\times(\frac{1\text{ hr}}{3600\text{ s}}) \\ \approx6.17\text{ km} \end{gathered}

Therefore, Christophe joins Yan after 6.17 km from the start.

I'm very confused. Thanks for whoever helps me :)

(C). Remember gravity provides an acceleration of 9.81m/s^2, so the y component of velocity initial is zero because it isn’t already falling, and we have the height, so basically we use the kinematic equation vf^2=vi^2+2ad, substitute given values and you get vf^2=2(9.81)(65) which is 1275, when you take the square root you get 35.7m/s for final velocity
(B). Then you use vf=vi+at to get the equation 35.7=(9.81)t, when you divide out you get 3.64s for time t
(A). Finally, since we assume that there is no acceleration or deceleration horizonatally, we just multiply the time taken for it to hit the ground and the initial speed ((3.64)(35.7)) to get 129.96, with significant figures I would round that to 130 metres.

20.0 Ω resistor and a 2.50 μF capacitor are connected in parallel with signal generator. The signal generator produces a sinusoi
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

0.15A

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

R=20.0 Ω

C= 2.50 μF

V= 3.00 V

f= 2.48×10^-3 Hz

Xc= 1/2πFc

Xc= 1/2×3.142 × 2.48×10^-3 × 2.5 ×10^-6

Xc= 25666824.1

Z= 1/√(1/R)^2 +(1/Xc)^2

Z= 1/√[(1/20)^2 +(1/25666824.1)^2]

Z= 1/√(2.5×10^-3) + (1.5×10^-15)

Z= 20 Ω

But

V=IZ

Where;

V= voltage

I= current

Z= impedance

I= V/Z

I= 3.00/20

I= 0.15A
