Answer:

9.8 m/s/s

Explanation:

The numerical value, in meters per second squared, of the acceleration of an object experiencing true free fall is 9.8 m/s/s. This is called the acceleration due to gravity.

Answer: 9.8

The velocity of a free-falling object can be discovered by using a simple mathematical formula: v = (9.8 m/s2) * time

Two trains approach each other on parallel tracks. Each has a speed of 95 kph relative to the ground. If they are initially 8.5

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: 2.83 minutes

Explanation:

It is understood that trains are approaching. That is, they have speeds of equal magnitude but opposite. When train A travels x meters northbound, then train B travels the same distance southbound.

Therefore trains approach at a speed of:

$V = 95 +95 = 190\ km / h$

Then:

$V = \frac{x}{t}\\\\t = \frac{x}{V}$

Where x is the distance between the trains

$x = 8.5\ km$

So the time in which both trains meet is:

$t =\frac{8.5\ km}{180\ \frac{km}{h}}\\\\t=0.04722\ hours$

This is:

$0.04722*\frac{60\ minutes}{1\ hour} = 2.83\ minutes$

How long will it be before they reach one another ?

Suppose a plot of inverse wavelength vs frequency has slope equal to 0.119, what is the speed of sound traveling in the tube to

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

8.40 m/s

Explanation:

Slope of the plot is 0.119

Slope of a plot is given by the change in y direction divided by the change in x direction

Here, the y axis represents inverse wavelength and the x axis represents frequency.

f = Frequency (Hz, assumed)

v = Phase velocity (m/s, assumed)

λ = Wavelength (m, assumed)

So, slope

$m=\frac{\frac{1}{\lambda}}{f}$

Now,

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=\frac{f}{v}$

$\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{\frac{f}{v}}{f}\\\Rightarrow 0.119=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1}{0.119}\\\Rightarrow v=8.40\ m/s$

The speed of sound travelling in the tube is 8.40 m/s

Calculate the electric field at the center of a square

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

The Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

Explanation:

Given:

side of a square, $a=52.5\ cm$

charge on one corner of the square, $q_1=+45\times 10^{-6}\ C$

charge on the remaining 3 corners of the square, $q_2=q_3=q_4=-27\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Distance of the center from each corners $=\frac{1}{2} \times diagonals$

$diagonal=\sqrt{52.5^2+52.5^2}$

$diagonal=74.25\cm=0.7425\ m$

∴Distance of center from corners, $b=0.3712\ m$

Now, electric field due to charges is given as:

$E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\times \frac{q}{b^2}$

For charge $q_1$ we have the field lines emerging out of the charge since it is positively charged:

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \frac{45\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_1=2938775.5\ N.C^{-1}$

Force by each of the charges at the remaining corners:

$E_2=E_3=E_4=9\times 10^9\times \frac{27\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}$

$E_2=E_3=E_4=1763265.3\ N.C^{-1}$

Now, net electric field in the vertical direction:

$E_y=E_1-E_4$

$E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}$

Now, net electric field in the horizontal direction:

$E_y=E_2-E_3$

$E_y=0\ N.C^{-1}$

So the Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge $q_1$ .

Which statement did Ernest Rutherford make about atoms?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford concluded that the atom has a small, dense center which constitutes the mass of the whole atom. He called it a "Nucleus". He also said that most of the space in the atom is empty.
