The slope of the x-t curve at any point represents:_______a. Displacementb. Velocityc. Accerlationd. None of these

Physics

Rus_ich [418]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

x-t curve means position vs time graph in which position (x) is in x-axis and time is in y-axis.

Slope of a graph = \dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta t}.

We know that, velocity = displacement/time

or we can say that slope = displacement/time = velocity

Hence, the correct option is (b) "velocity".

A test charge of +3 �C is at a point P where an external electric field is directed to the right and has a magnitude of 4 106 N/
Anni [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives us the Electric Field strength of charge as follows:

E = k* (Q) / R^2

Where,

k : Coulomb constant 8.99 * 10^9 N /C

Q: Charge generating Electric Field strength

R: Distance from source to any point

In our case the value of E = 4.106 N /C is experienced by charge +3 C. This charge is replaced by an equal magnitude of charge but with negative sign -3 C. Scrutinizing on the above formula we can see that all quantities remain same hence, the magnitude of field strength remains same.

However, we also know a positive magnitude is directed away from the source charge while a negative magnitude is directed towards the source. We can conclude that only the direction of electric field reverses while magnitude remains same.

An airplane used to drop water on brushfires is flying horizontally in a straight line at 180 mi/h at an altitude of 390 ft. Det
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The water should be released a distance of 1289.88 feet before the plane is on top of the bush fire.

Explanation:

Let's first find the time required for the water to fall down 390 ft onto the bush fire.

Initial Vertical Speed of water = 0

Distance to be covered = 390 ft

Acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/s^2

s=u*t+\frac{1}{2} (a*t^2)

390=0*t+0.5(32.2*t^2)

t = 4.92 seconds

Thus the water should be dropped 4.92 seconds before the plane is over the bush fire. Now we can also find the distance d at which the pilot should release the water:

d = Speed of plane * time

Speed of plane = 180 / (60 * 60) = 0.05 mile/second

d = 0.05 * 4.92 = <u>0.246 miles</u>    OR    <u>1289.88 feet</u>

<u />

Thus, the water should be released a distance of 1289.88 feet before the plane is on top of the bush fire.

Why sodium &amp;pottasium are kept under kerosine
Afina-wow [57]
As they are Alkali metals (group 1), they are extremely reactive in both air and water so must be stored in kerosine to stop them from reacting with the air or water.

A mass of 0.250 kg is attached to a spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period of 0.640 s. What is the forc
Paha777 [63]

The force constant of the spring is approximately 24.038 newtons per meter.

As we are talking about Simple Harmonic Motion. In this exercise we need to determine the Spring Constant (k), in newtons per meter, from the equation of the Period (T), in seconds, which is described below:

T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } (1)

Where m is the mass of the moving element, in kilograms.

If we know that T = 0.640\,s and m = 0.250\,kg, then the spring constant of the spring is:

0.640 = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.250}{k} }

\sqrt{\frac{0.250}{k} } \approx 0.102

\frac{0.250}{k} \approx 0.0104

k \approx 24.038\,\frac{N}{m}

The force constant of the spring is approximately 24.038 newtons per meter.
