A plane flies 470 km east from city A to city B in 45.0 min and then 966 km south from city B to city C in 1.50 h. For the total

trip, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the plane's displacement, the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of its average velocity, and (e) its average speed?

Answer:

a) 1074.27 km

b) 64.06^{\circ}

c) 477.453 km/h

d) 638.22 km/h

Explanation:

From Pythagoras theorem

AC² = AB²+BC²

AC=\sqrt{AB^2+BC^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=\sqrt{(-470)^2+(-966)^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=1074.27\ km

Displacement = 1074.27 km

tan\theta=\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}\\\Rightarrow tan\theta=\frac{966}{470}\\\Rightarrow \theta=tan^{-1}\frac{-966}{-470}\\\Rightarrow \theta=64.06^{\circ}

Direction = 64.06^{\circ}

Average velocity

v_{av}=\frac{1074.27}{2.25}\\\Rightarrow v_{av}=477.453\ km/h

Average velocity = 477.453 km/h

Average speed

s_{av}=\frac{470+966}{2.25}\\\Rightarrow s_{av}=638.22\ km/h

Average speed = 638.22 km/h

An electron moves at a speed of 1.0 x 104 m/s in a circular path of radius 2 cm inside a solenoid. The magnetic field of the sol
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

(a) B = 2.85 × 10^{-6} Tesla

(b) I =  I = 0.285 A

Explanation:

a. The strength of magnetic field, B, in a solenoid is determined by;

r = \frac{mv}{qB}

⇒ B = \frac{mv}{qr}

Where: r is the radius, m is the mass of the electron, v is its velocity, q is the charge on the electron and B is the magnetic field

B = \frac{9.11*10^{-31*1.0*10^{4} } }{1.6*10^{-19}*0.02 }

  = \frac{9.11*10^{-27} }{3.2*10^{-21} }

B = 2.85 × 10^{-6} Tesla

b. Given that; N/L = 25 turns per centimetre, then the current, I, can be determined by;

B = μ I N/L

⇒    I = B ÷ μN/L

where B is the magnetic field,  μ is the permeability of free space = 4.0 ×10^{-7}Tm/A, N/L is the number of turns per length.

I = B ÷ μN/L

 = \frac{2.85*10^{-6} }{4*10^{-7} *25}

I = 0.285 A

The diagram shows monochromatic light passing through two openings.

Answer:

constructive interference in which waves strengthen each other

Explanation:

Some definitions:

- Costructive interference occurs when two (or more) waves meet each other in phase, so with same displacement at the same point. In such situation, the two waves strengthen each other, and the amplitude of the resultant wave is the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

- Destructive interference occurs when two waves meet each other in anti-phase, so with opposite displacement at the same point. In such situation, the two waves cancel each other out, and the amplitude of the resultant wave is the difference of the amplitudes of the individual waves (which means zero if the two waves are identical)

For light waves interfering with each other, 'white' means costructive interference, while 'black' means destructive interference (because black is absence of colors, so this means that the waves cancel each other out). In this problem, we see that point X, Y and X are white, therefore they are point of constructive interference, where the waves strengthen each other.

A girl dribbling a basketball is running a court that is 100 m in length. It takes her 4.2 seconds to reach the end of the court
Travka [436]

Divide the distance traveled by the time it took:

(100 m) / (4.2 s) ≈ 23.8 m/s

Two particles are moving with positions given by x= 4t^2−2t and x= 6t^3+8t respectively.
Evgen [1.6K]

Explanation:

<em>a)Which of the two has uniform acceleration?</em>

Acceleration is the second derivative of position.  The acceleration of the first particle is:

x = 4t² − 2t

v = 8t − 2

a = 8

The acceleration of the second particle is:

x = 6t³ + 8t

v = 18t² + 8

a = 36t

The first particle has uniform acceleration.

<em>b)Which one is likely to come to rest at some time during its motion?</em>

The particles come to rest when v = 0.  The first particle's velocity has a real zero at t = 4.  The second particle's velocity has only imaginary zeros, meaning v is never 0.
