Answer:25.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given

truck is moving eastbound with a velocity of 16 m/s

Velocity of truck v_t=16\hat{i}

SUV is moving south with a velocity of 20 m/s

Velocity of SUV in vector form v_s=-20\hat{j}

Velocity of truck relative to the SUV

v_{ts}=v_{t}-v_s

v_{ts}=16\hat{i}-(-20\hat{j})

Magnitude of relative velocity is

|v_{ts}|=\sqrt{16^2+20^2}

|v_{ts}|=25.61\ m/s

To determine the height of a flagpole, Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. She sees that the ball goes by the top of th
Kryger [21]

Answer:

H = 10.05 m

Explanation:

If the stone will reach the top position of flag pole at t = 0.5 s and t = 4.1 s

so here the total time of the motion above the top point of pole is given as

\Delta t = 4.1 - 0.5 = 3.6 s

now we have

\Delta t = \frac{2v}{g}

3.6 = \frac{2v}{9.8}

v = 17.64 m/s

so this is the speed at the top of flag pole

now we have

v_f - v_i = at

17.64 - v_i = (-9.8)(0.5)

v_i = 22.5 m/s

now the height of flag pole is given as

H = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}t

H = \frac{22.5 + 17.64}{2} (0.5)

H = 10.05 m

dmitriy555 [2]

<u>Answer :</u>

correct choice is option A  

Motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. Generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Explanation :

Their difference is described as;

  Premise MOTOR

  1. The Motor Converts Electrical imperatives into vitality .
  2. It uses control. (power)
  3. In partner degree motor this is to be given to the curl winding
  4. The Shaft of the motor is driven by the drawing in power made among loop and field.
  5. Engine seeks after Fleming's left guideline.

GENERATOR

  1. Generator changes over Mechanical essentialness to Electrical imperatives .
  2. It produces control (electricity)
  3. In the generator current is conveyed inside the curl winding.
  4. The Shaft is associated with the rotor and is driven by mechanical power.
  5. Generator seeks after Fleming's correct guideline. .

Two 25 kg children are sitting on a merry-go-round that is rotating at 0.10 rad/s. if one child is 1.0 m from the center and the
Grace [21]
The angular speed of the merry-go-round is
ω = 0.10 rad/s

The angular moment of inertia of a mass, m, at a radius, r, from the center of the wheel is
I = mr²

Therefore, the angular moment of inertia for the children are
I₁ = (25 kg)*(1.0 m)² = 25 kg-m²
I₂ = (25 kg)*(1.5 m)² = 56.25 kg-m²

The combined angular momentum is
ω(I₁ + I₂) = (0.10 rad/s)*(25 + 56.25 kg-m²)
               = 8.125 (kg-m²)/s

Answer: 8.125 (kg-m²)/s

vfiekz [6]

Answer:absorbs and emits electromagnetic radiation at all wavelengths

Explanation:

A blackbody is a believed to be a perfect absorber and reflector of radiation. Blackbody, in physics, refers to a surface that absorbs all radiant energy that falls on it. It is supposed that because incident visible light will be absorbed rather than reflected, the surface will appear black.
