After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 26 people including the driver, with an average

mass of 67 kg per person. In addition, there are three 15-kg goats, five 3-kg chickens, and a total of 25 kg of bananas on their way to the market. Assume that the springs have somehow not yet compressed to their maximum amount. How much are the springs compressed?

Answer:

0.44807175m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = $4\times 10^{4}\ N/m$ (Assumed, as it is not given)

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Total mass is

$m=26\times 67+3\times 15+5\times 3+25\\\Rightarrow m=1827\ kg$

The total weight will balance the spring force

$mg=kx\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1827\times 9.81}{4\times 10^{4}}\\\Rightarrow x=0.44807175\ m$

The springs are compressed by 0.44807175m

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Question 7: </h2>

$\huge\text{Graphs:}$

The graph of

• The I-V for Ohmic Metal wire conductor at constant temperature always shows a straight line between the Current(I) plotted at Y axis and Voltage(V) plotted at X axis. Picture 1

• The I-V graph for Diode shows that first the current is zero but as we increase the potential difference(voltage), it results in the increase in the current. Picture 2

<h2>_____________________________________ </h2><h2>Question 8: </h2>

$\Large\textbf{Diode:}$

A diode is a device that allows current to flow in only one direction.

$\Large\textbf{Forward and Reverse Biasing:}$

Forward Bias, When a diode is forward bias (a voltage in the "forward" direction) then the P-side of the diode is attached to the positive terminal and N-side is fixed to the negative side of the battery which is connected, current flows freely through the device. The forward bias decreases the thickness of potential barrier(The potential barrier barrier in which the charge requires additional force for crossing the region)

Reverse Bias, When a diode is Reverse bias(a voltage in the "backward direction) then the P-side of the diode is connected to the negative terminal and N-side is connected to the positive terminal of the battery which is connected. The reverse bias increases the thickness of the potential barrier resulting in the flow of no current.

$\Large\textbf{Answer to the Question "Resistance"}$

The Forward bias decreases the resistance of the diode whereas the reversed bias increases the resistance of the diode. As in forward biasing the current is easily flowing through the circuit whereas reverse bias does not allow the current to flow through it.

A car battery has a rating of 170 ampere-hours. This rating is one indication of the total charge that the battery can provide t

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

612000 C

Explanation:

Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:

I = Δq / Δt

where q = electric charge

t = time taken

This implies that:

Δq = I * Δt

The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:

Δq = 170 * 1 hour

But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;

=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C

The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.

You observe two cars traveling in the same direction on a long, straight section of Highway 5. The red car is moving at a consta

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

1) 3.66 s

2) 124.44 m

3) 3.12 s

Explanation:

Let's start by first listing down the information in the question.

Red Car : 34 m/s

Blue Car: 28 m/s

Distance between them : 22 m

The difference in speed between the cars is: 34 - 28 = 6 m/s

This means that the red car is catching up to the blue car at a speed of 6 m/s.

1) We can solve this by just dividing the distance by the difference in speed. This becomes: $\frac{Distance}{Speed}= \frac{22}{6} = 3.66$

Thus it takes 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue car.

2) We know from (1) that it took 3.66 seconds for the red car to catch up. Since the speed it was travelling at is constant, we only need to multiply it by the time from (1) to get the distance.

This becomes: $Speed * Time = 34 * 3.66 = 124.44$

Thus the red car travels 124.44 m before catching up to the blue car.

3) If the red car starts to accelerate the moment we see it, the time taken to get to the blue car will be less than before. We can find this in a simple way.

We can use the motion equation : $s = u*t + \frac{1}{2}(a * t^2)$

Here s = 22 m

We can take u as the difference in speed. u = 6 m/s

Acceleration a = (2/3) m/s^2

Substituting the these into the equation we get:

$22 = 6t + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{3}t^2)$

Solving this for the variable 't' using the quadratic formula we get the following two answers:

t1 = 3.12 s

t2 = - 21.12 s

Since t2 is not possible, the answer is t1. This means it takes 3.12 seconds for the red car to catch up to the blue.

Consider two objects (Object 1 and Object 2) moving in the same direction on a frictionless surface. Object 1 moves with speed v

Semenov [28]

Answer:

A)Object 1 has the greater magnitude of its momentum.

B)The objects 2 have the greater kinetic energy.

Explanation:

For object 1 :

v₁ = v ,m₁ = 2 m

For object 2 :

$v_2=2\sqrt{v}$ ,m₂=m

We know that linear momentum given as

P = M V

M=Mass , V=Velocity

For object 1 :

P₁ =m₁ v₁

P₁ =2 m v

For object 2

$P_2=m_2v_2$

$P_2=2m\sqrt {v}$

We can say that object 1 have more momentum.

The kinetic energy

$KE_1=\dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2$

$KE_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2m\times v^2$

$KE_1=mv^2$

$KE_2=\dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2$

$KE_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times 4v^2$

$KE_2=2mv^2$

Therefore both the object 2 have higher kinetic energy.

A person is pushing a book lying on a table. Identify the different forces that act on

BaLLatris [955]

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.
