The strength of the electric and magnetic fields there is no physical "distance" of oscillation here. nothing is actually moving up and down if you draw light as a sinusoidal wave, the up and down motion is the strength of the EM fields cheers

The minimum potential difference must be supplied by the ignition circuit to start a car is -1800 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data,

E= 3 ×10 ⁶ Δx=0.06/100

We have to find the minimum potential difference

E= -ΔV/Δx

ΔV=- E × Δx

ΔV =-3 ×10 ⁶ . 0.06/100

ΔV=-1800 V

The minimum potential difference must be supplied by the ignition circuit to start a car is -1800 V

Kobotan [32]

Wildlife researcher starts from a and then reaches b, he turns towards north 40 degree to move towards c.

Total displacement is ac

Total horizontal displacement = 4+4 cos40 =7.06 km

Total vertical displacement = 4 sin40 =2.57 km

Total displacement = \sqrt{7.06^2+2.57^2} = 7.51 km

In a police ballistics test, a 10.0-g bullet moving at 300 m/s is fired into a 1.00-kg block at rest. The bullet goes through th
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum.

Mass of bullet = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Initial Velocity of bullet = 300 m/s

Mass of block = 1 kg

Initial Velocity of block = 0 m/s

Final Velocity of bullet = 50% of initial velocity. = 150 m/s

We need to find final velocity of block. Let it be v

We have

Initial momentum = 0.01 x 300 + 1 x 0 = 3 kg m/s

Final momentum = 0.01 x 150 + 1 x v = 1.5 + v

Equating

3 = 1.5 + v

v = 1.5 m/s

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A. a = 814.815 ft/s^2.

B. Distance, S = 320 ft.

Explanation:

Equations of motion

i. vf = vi + a*t

ii. S = vi*t + 1/2*(a*t)

iii. vf^2 = vi^2 + 2a*S

Given:

vi = 0 ft/s

vf = 1000 miles/hr

t = 1.8 s

g = 32 ft/ s2

Converting miles/hr to ft/s,

1 mile = 5280 ft

Also, 1 hr = 60 mins * 60s

= 3600 s

Therefore, 1000 miles/hr * 5280 ft/1 mile * 1 hr/3600 s

= 1466.7 ft/s.

A.

Using the i. Equation of motion,

1466.7 = 0 + a*1.8

a = 814.815 ft/s^2

Comparing a to g,

a = (814.815/32) * g

= 25.46 g

B.

Using the ii. Equation of motion,

S = 1/2 * (814.815) * (1.8)^2

= 1320 ft.
