A railroad track and a road cross at right angles. An observer stands on the road and watches an eastbound train traveling at 60

meters per second. At how 70 meters south of the crossing. How many meters per second is the train moving away from the observer 4 seconds after it passes through the intersection?

Answer:

After 4 s of passing through the intersection, the train travels with 57.6 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Suppose the distance to the south of the crossing watching the east bound train be x = 70 m

Also, the east bound travels as a function of time and can be given as:

y(t) = 60t

Now,

To calculate the speed, z(t) of the train as it passes through the intersection:

Since, the road cross at right angles, thus by Pythagoras theorem:

z(t) = \sqrt{x^{2} + y(t)^{2}}

z(t) = \sqrt{70^{2} + 60t^{2}}

Now, differentiate the above eqn w.r.t 't':

\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 2t\times 3600

\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600t

For t = 4 s:

\frac{dz(4)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600\times 4^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600\times 4 = 57.6\ m/s

If the area of an iron rod is 10 cm by 0.5 cm and length is 35 cm. Find the value of resistance, if 11x10^-8 ohm.m be the resist
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Resistance of the iron rod, R = 0.000077 ohms    

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of iron rod, A=10\ cm\times 0.5\ cm=5\ cm^2 = 0.0005\ m^2

Length of the rod, L = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Resistivity of Iron, \rho=11\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

We need to find the resistance of the iron rod. It is given by :

R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}

R=11\times 10^{-8}\times \dfrac{0.35\ m}{0.0005\ m^2}

R=0.000077 \Omega

So, the resistance of the rod is 0.000077 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

A vector has an x-component
NeTakaya

Answer:

34.45m

Explanation:

Magnitude of a vector is equal to the square root of sum of squares of x & y vectors.

Magnitude = \sqrt({x^2} + {y^2})

= \sqrt({19.5^2} + {28.4^2})

=34.45m
