Object A has the larger speed because speed is not a vector quantity, it is scalar. This means that directionality, or in this case the sign of the velocity, doesn’t matter.
Speed = |velocity|
Object a speed =|-10|=10 m/s
Object b speed =|5|=5 m/s

Object a is the answer.

(C)

Explanation:

The circle has a radius r = 0.5 m, which means that its circumference C is

$C = 2\pi r = 2\pi(0.5\:\text{m}) = 3.14\:\text{m}$

One revolution means that the stopper travels a distance equal to the circumference of the circle so the velocity of the stopper is

$v = \dfrac{C}{t} =\dfrac{3.14\:\text{m}}{0.2\:\text{s}} = 15.7\:\text{m/s} \approx 16\:\text{m/s}$

An 800 kHz radio signal is detected at a point 3.2 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign

hammer [34]

Answer:

1.07 nT

Explanation:

We know that E/B = c where E = electric field amplitude = 320 mV/m = 0.32 V/m, B = magnetic field amplitude and c = speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s.

So, B = E/c

Substituting E and c into B, we have

B = E/c

= 0.32 V/m ÷ 3 × 10⁸ m/s

= 0.1067 × 10⁻⁸ T

= 1.067 × 10⁻⁹ T

= 1.067 nT

≅ 1.07 nT

A ball rolls up a ramp with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. How high up the ramp does it travel?

Flura [38]

The greatest height the ball will attain is 3.27 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =?

The maximum height to which the ball can attain can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 8² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 64 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 64 = –19.6h

–64 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –64 / –19.6h

h = 3.27 m

Thus, the greatest height the ball can attain is 3.27 m

If an object moving at 12 m/s has a kinetic energy of 72 j what is the mass

EleoNora [17]

Simply, apply the formula $E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ and insert the values of m = mass, v = velocity and E = Energy.
The result will be $72J = \frac{1}{2}m(12m/s)^{2}$ , m = 1 kg

Steam enters a one-inlet, two-exit control volume at location (1) at 360°C, 100 bar, with a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inlet

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass flow rate = 2 kg/s

Diameter of inlet pipe = 5.2 cm

Fifteen percent of the flow leaves through location (2) and the remainder leaves at (3)

The mass flow rate is

$m_{2}=0.15\times2$

We need to calculate the mass flow rate at reach exit

Using formula of mass

$m_{3}=m_{1}-m_{2}$

$m_{3}=2-0.15\times2$

$m_{3}=1.7\ kg/s$

We need to calculate the inlet velocity

Using formula of velocity

$v=\dfrac{m}{\rho A}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{2}{42.868\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times(5.2\times10^{-2})^2}$

$v=21.9\ m/s$

Hence, The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.
