A car sitting at a red light begins to accelerate at 2 m/s2 when the light turns green. It continues with this acceleration unti

l it reaches a speed of 20 m/s. It then travels at this speed for another few minutes. How far does the car travel in the first 35 s after the light changes to green

Answer:

    x_total = 600 m

Explanation:

This is an exercise and kinematics, let's find the time it takes to reach the velocity  20 m / s

          v = v₀ + a t

           

as part of rest v₀ = 0

          t = v / a

          t = 20/2

          t = 10 s

let's find the distance traveled in this time

          x₁ = vo t + ½ a t2

          x₁ = 0 + ½ 2 10²

          x₁ = 100 m

The remaining time is

          t₂ = 35 - t

          t₂ = 35 - 10

          t₂ = 25 s

as in this range it has a constant speed

          v = x₂ / t₂

          x₂ = v t₂

          x₂ = 20  25

          x₂ = 500 m

the total distance traveled is

           x_total = x₁ + x₂

           x_total = 100 + 500

           x_total = 600 m

A piston/cylinder contains 2 kg of water at 20◦C with a volume of 0.1 m3. By mistake someone locks the piston, preventing it fro
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Hi

Final temperature = 250.11 °C

Final volume = 0,1 m3.

Process work = 0

Explanation:

The specific volume in the initial state is: v = 0.1m3/2 kg = 0.05 m3/kg.

This volume is located between the volumes as saturated liquid and saturated steam at 20 °C. For this reason the water is initially in a liquid vapor mixture. As the piston was blocked the volume remains constant and the process is isometric, also known as isocoric process, so the final temperature will be the water temperature at a saturated steam of v=0.05m3/kg, which is obtained by using steam tables for water, by linear interpolation. As follows, using table A-4 of the Cengel book 7th Edition:

v=0.05 m3/kg

v1=0.057061 m3/kg

T1=242.56°C

v2=0.049779 m3/kg

T2=250.35°C

T=\frac{T2-T1}{v2-v1} x(v-v1)+T1=\frac{250.35°C-242.56°C}{0.049779m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg}x(0.05m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg)+242.56°C=250.11°C

The process work is zero because there is no change in volume during heating:

W=PxΔv=Px0=0

where

W=process work

P=pressure

Δv=change of volume, is zero because the piston was blocked so the volume remains constant.

Consider the following statement:
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The statement "The magnetic field of a magnet comes out of the north pole and goes into the south pole" is imprecise

Explanation:

This is because the zero divergence equation (∇ · B = 0 ) is valid for any magnetic field, even if it is time dependent rather than static. Physically, it means that there are no magnetic charges otherwise we would have ∇ · B ∝ ρmag instead of ∇ · B = 0. Consequently, the magnetic field lines never begin or end anywhere in space; instead they form closed loops or run from infinity to infinity.

What is the change in electric potential energy when the dipole moment of a molecule changes its orientation with respect to e⃗
AleksandrR [38]

Electric potential energy of a dipole is given as

U = - P.E

U = - PE cos\theta

so change in the potential energy is given by

U_f - U_i = (-PEcos\theta_2)- (-PEcos\theta_1)

\Delta U = PE (cos\theta_1 - cos\theta_2)

here initially it was parallel to electric field while finally it is perpendicular to the electric field

so we have

\Delta U = PE(cos 0 - cos 90)

\Delta U = PE

so above is the change in potential energy of dipole
