The driver speeds up with acceleration <em>a</em> so that

35 m/s = 15 m/s + <em>a</em> (10.0 s)

Solve for <em>a</em> :

20 m/s = <em>a</em> (10.0 s)

<em>a</em> = (20 m/s) / (10.0 s)

<em>a</em> = 2 m/s²

What are the characteristics of high energy waves?
sladkih [1.3K]
<span>The relationship between wavelength, frequency and energy of Electromagnetic Radiation is given by E = hf = hc/lamba -------(1) So from (1) there's a linear relationship between E and f. The higher the frequency, f, the higher the energy E. Also from (1) it is obvious that the lower the wavelength, lambda, the higher the energy, E. This means the answer is D.</span>

You wish to cool a 1.83 kg block of tin initially at 88.0°C to a temperature of 57.0°C by placing it in a container of kerosene
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.273 liters are needed to accomplish this task without boiling.

Explanation:

The minimum boiling point of kerosene is 150\,^{\circ}C. According to this question, we need to determine the minimum volume of liquid such that heat received is entirely sensible, that is, with no phase change.

If we consider a steady state process and that energy interactions with surrounding are negligible, then we get the following formula by the Principle of Energy Conservation:

\rho_{k}\cdot V_{k}\cdot c_{k}\cdot (T-T_{k,o}) = m_{t}\cdot c_{t}\cdot (T_{t,o}-T) (1)

Where:

\rho_{k} - Density of kerosene, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

V_{k} - Volume of kerosene, measured in cubic meters.

c_{k}, c_{t} - Specific heats of the kerosene and tin, measured in joule per kilogram-Celsius.

T_{k,o}, T_{t,o} - Initial temperatures of kerosene and tin, measured in degrees Celsius.

T - Final temperatures of the kerosene-tin system, measured in degrees Celsius.

Please notice that the block of tin is cooled at the expense of the temperature of the kerosene until thermal equilibrium is reached.

From (1), we clear the volume of kerosene:

V_{k} = \frac{m_{t}\cdot c_{t}\cdot (T_{t,o}-T)}{\rho_{k}\cdot c_{k}\cdot (T-T_{k,o})}

If we know that m_{t} = 1.83\,kg, c_{t} = 218\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}, T_{t,o} = 88\,^{\circ}C, T_{k,o} = 24.0\,^{\circ}C, T = 57\,^{\circ}C, c_{k} = 2010\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} and \rho_{k} = 820\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, then the volume of the liquid needed to accomplish this task without boiling is:

V_{k} = \frac{(1.83\,kg)\cdot \left(218\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (88\,^{\circ}C-57\,^{\circ}C)}{\left(820\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(2010\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (57\,^{\circ}C-24\,^{\circ}C)}

V_{k} = 2.273\times 10^{-4}\,m^{3}

V_{k} = 0.273\,L

0.273 liters are needed to accomplish this task without boiling.

Charge A and charge B are 3.00 m apart, and charge A is +1.44 C and charge B is +3.10 C. Charge C is located between them at a c
Sidana [21]

Answer:

the distance from charge A to C is r₁₃= 1.216 m

Explanation:

following Coulomb's law , the force exerted by 2 point charges between themselves is:

F= k*q₁*q₂/r₁₂² , where q is charge , r is distance and 1 and 2 represents the charge A and charge B respectively , k=constant

since C ( denoted as 3) is at equilibrium

F₁₃=F₂₃

k*q₁*q₃/r₁₃²=k*q₂*q₃/r₂₃²

q₁/r₁₃²=q₂/r₂₃²

r₁₃²/q₁=r₂₃²/q₂

r₂₃=r₁₃*√(q₂/q₁)

since C is at rest and is co linear with A and B ( otherwise it would receive a net force in either vertical or horizontal direction) , we have

r₁₃+r₂₃=d=r₁₂

r₁₃+r₁₃*√(q₂/q₁)=d

r₁₃*(1+√(q₂/q₁))=d

r₁₃=d/(1+√(q₂/q₁))

replacing values

r₁₃=d/(1+√(q₂/q₁)) = 3.00 m/(1+√(3.10 C/1.44 C)) = 1.216 m

thus the distance from charge A to C is r₁₃= 1.216 m
