Answer :

(a) The acceleration is, 0.278m/s^2

(b) Distance it travels during this time is, 156.225 m

<u>Solution for part (a) :</u>

Formula used :

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where,

a = acceleration

v = final velocity = 45Km/hr=45\times \frac{5}{18}=12.5m/s

u = initial velocity = 30Km/hr=30\times \frac{5}{18}=8.33m/s

t = time = 15 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

a=\frac{(12.5-8.33)m/s}{15s}=0.278m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration is, 0.278m/s^2

<u>Solution for part (b) :</u>

Formula used :

s=u\times t+\frac{1}{2}a\times t^2

where,

s = distance traveled

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

s=(8.33m/s)\times (15s)+\frac{1}{2}\times (0.278m/s^2)\times (15s)^2=156.225m

Therefore, the distance it travels during this time is, 156.225 m

Acceleration = v-u/t
= (45-30)/15
= 1 km/h


Distance = ut + 1/2 at^2
s = [30 x 15]  + 1/2 x 1 x 15^2 
= 562.5 km

Hope this helps

11 e) Can a conductor be given limitless charge? Obtain the equivalent resistance of several resistors if (a) they are in series
horsena [70]

Answer:

(e) no

(a) Rs = R' + R'' + R'''

(b) 1/Rp = 1/R' + 1/R'' + 1/R'''

Explanation:

11 e)

Practically it is not possible to give limitless charge to a conductor. It depends to the number of valence electrons.

(a) When the three resistances R'. R'' and R''' is in series combination.

Let they are connected to the voltage V and the current in each resistance is I.

According to Ohm's law

Voltage across R', V' = I R'

Voltage across R'', V'' = I R''

Voltage across R''', V''' = I R'''

So, let the equivalent resistance is Rs.

I Rs = I R' + I R'' + I R'''

Rs = R' + R'' + R'''

(b)

When the three resistances R'. R'' and R''' is in parallel combination.

Let they are connected to the voltage V and the current in each resistance is I', I''. I'''.

Current in R', I' = V/R'

Current in R'', I'' = V/R''

Current in R''', I''' = V/R'''

The equivalent resistance is Rp.

V/Rp = V/R' + V/ R'' + V/R'''

1/Rp = 1/R' + 1/R'' + 1/R'''

Rank the tensions in the ropes, t1, t2, and t3, from smallest to largest, when the boxes are in motion and there is no friction
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
<span>AS T1,T2,T3 are the tensions in the ropes,assuming that there are Three blocks of mass 3m, 2m, and m.T3 is the string between 3m and 2m,T2 is the string between 2m and m ,T1 is the string attached to m thus T1 pulls the whole set of blocks along, so it must be the largest. T2 pulls the last two masses, but T3 only pulls the last mass, so T3 < T2 < T1.</span>

Suppose you hear a clap of thunder 14.4 s after seeing the associated lightning strike. The speed of light in air is 3.00 ✕ 108
Marina86 [1]

Answer

Given,

Time to hear the clap = 14.4 s

speed of the light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Speed of sound = 343 m/s

a) distance where lightning strike

    D = s x t

    D = 14.4 x 343

   D = 4939.2 m

b) No, we do not need to know the value of speed of light. Because we need to calculate the distance where we hear the sound. To calculate that we need to know the speed of sound.
