Anestetic [448]3 years ago

Answer:

21.75 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken for the car to slow down = 0.75 s

u = Initial velocity = 50 m/s

v = Final velocity = 8 m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{8-50}{0.75}\\\Rightarrow a=-56\ m/s^2

Acceleration is -56 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{8^2-50^2}{2\times -56}\\\Rightarrow s=21.75\ m

The distance covered in the 0.75 seconds is 21.75 m

A typical meteor that hits the earth's upper atmosphere has a mass of only 2.5 g, about the same as a penny, but it is moving at
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Answer:u=66.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of meteor m=2.5 gm\approx 2.5\times 10^{-3} kg

velocity of meteor v=40km/s \approx 40000 m/s

Kinetic Energy of Meteor

K.E.=\frac{mv^2}{2}

K.E.=\frac{2.5\times 10^{-3}\times (4000)^2}{2}

K.E.=2\times 10^6 J

Kinetic Energy of Car

=\frac{1}{2}\times Mu^2

=\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2

\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2=2\times 10^6  

900\times u^2=4\times 10^6

u^2=\frac{4}{9}\times 10^4

u=\frac{2}{3}\times 10^2

u=66.67 m/s

A vertical wire carries a current straight up in a region where the magnetic field vector points due north. What is the directio
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

Explanation:

Given;

direction of the magnetic field to be due north

Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.

Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.

Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

Which microscope has the highest potential magnification? comparison microscope scanning electron microscope compound microscope
TiliK225 [7]

The answer is the electron microscope. It is a kind of microscope that uses electrons to light a sample and make an enlarged image. These kinds of microscopes have much better determining power than light microscopes and can get much higher magnifications.
