What is Marie's instantaneous speed at 20 minutes in miles/min?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

0.25miles/min

Explanation:

Instantaneous speed of a person or an object is its speed at a particular moment usually at a period of time.

The speedometer of a car reports the instantaneous speed.

 It can be mathematically expressed as;

        Instantaneous speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

At 20min the distance covered is 5miles;

    Instantaneous speed  = \frac{5 miles }{20mins}   = 0.25miles/min

Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of rod = 0.85 m

Mass of rod = 0.073 kg

Distance d = 8.2\times10^{-3}\ m

The rods carry the same current in the same direction.

We need to calculate the current

I is the current  through each of the wires then the force per unit length on each of them is

Using formula of force

\dfrac{F}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

\dfrac{mg}{L}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I^2}{2\pi d}

Where, m = mass of rod

l = length of rod

Put the value into the formula

I^2=\dfrac{mgd}{\mu L}

I^2=\dfrac{0.073\times9.8\times8.2\times10^{-3}}{2\times10^{-7}}

I=\sqrt{29331.4}

I=171.26\ A

Hence, The current in the rods is 171.26 A.

A block of mass m = 2.0 kg slides head on into a spring of spring constant k = 260 N/m. When the block stops, it has compressed
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

a) Ws = 2.548 J

b) Wf = 1.153 J

c) v = 1.923 m / s

Explanation:

a) The work done by the spring force  

Ws =  ½ * k * x²

Ws =  ½ * 260 N/m *0.14² m  

Ws =  2.548J

b) The increase in thermal energy can by find using  

Et = Wf

Wf = µ * m *g * x  

Wf = 0.42 * 2.0 kg *9.8 m/s² * 0.14m

Wf = 1.153 J

c) The speed just as the block reaches can by fin using

EK = Ws + Et

Ek = ( 2.548 + 1.153 ) J = 3.7 J

Ek = ½ * m * v²

v² = 2* Ek / m

v = √[2 * 3.7 J / 2.0 kg]

v = 1.923 m / s
