First we have to calculate the time taken to travel the distance 30 m, is

$t = \frac{distance}{velocity} = \frac{30 \ m}{10 \ m/s } = 3 \ s$ .

Now from equation of motion,

$v = u + at$

Given, $v = 10 \ m/s$ .

As object starts from rest, so u = 0.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

$10 \ m/s = 0 + a \times 3 \ s \\\\ a = \frac{10}{3} = 3.33 \ m/s^2$ .

Thus, the acceleration is $3.33 \ m/s^2$

Sav [38]

Answer:

The ladder is moving at the rate of 0.65 ft/s

Explanation:

A 16-foot ladder is leaning against a building. If the bottom of the ladder is sliding along the pavement directly away from the building at 2 feet/second. We need to find the rate at which the top of the ladder moving down when the foot of the ladder is 5 feet from the wall.

The attached figure shows whole description such that,

$x^2+y^2=256$ .........(1)

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}=2\ ft/s$

We need to find, $\dfrac{dy}{dt}$ at x = 5 ft

Differentiating equation (1) wrt t as :

$2x.\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y.\dfrac{dy}{dt}=0$

$2x+y\dfrac{dy}{dt}=0$

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=-\dfrac{2x}{y}$

Since, $y=\sqrt{256-x^2}$

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=-\dfrac{2x}{\sqrt{256-x^2}}$

At x = 5 ft,

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=-\dfrac{2\times 5}{\sqrt{256-5^2}}$

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=0.65$

So, the ladder is moving down at the rate of 0.65 ft/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

What parameters affects the inductance of a coil

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Number of Wire Turns in the Coil.

Explanation:

The greater the number of turns of wire in the coil, the greater the inductance. Fewer turns of wire in the coil results in lesser inductance. More coils of wires indicate a greater amount of magnetic field force for a given amount of coil current.

How is the wavelength of a longitudinal wave determined?

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Wavelength can always be found by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

A television has a mass of 19 kg. What is the weight of the television?

soldi70 [24.7K]

That depends on how far it is from the nearest planet. If it's on the surface of Earth, it weighs (19 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2) = 186.2 newtons.
