How much work is accomplished when a force of 250 N pushes a box across the floor for a distance of 50 meters?

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se

Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km

A 1.0 kg copper rod rests on two horizontal rails 1.0 m apart and carries a current of 50 A from one rail to the other.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer

given,

mass of copper rod = 1 kg

horizontal rails = 1 m

Current (I) = 50 A

coefficient of static friction = 0.6

magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire is

F = B i L

Rod is not necessarily vertical

$F_x =i L B_d$

$F_y= i L B_w$

the normal reaction N = mg-F y

static friction f = μ_s (mg-F y )

horizontal acceleration is zero

$F_x-f = 0$

$iLBd = \mu_s(mg-F_y )$

B_w = B sinθ

B_d = B cosθ

iLB cosθ= μ_s (mg- iLB sinθ)

$B = \dfrac{\mu_smg}{i(cos\theta +\mu_s sin\theta)}$

$\theta =tan{-1}{\mu_s}$

$\theta =tan{-1}{0.6}$

$\theta = 31^0$

$B = \dfrac{0.6\times 1 \times 9.8}{50(cos31^0 +0.6 sin31^0)}$

B = 0.1 T

by how many times occur in the force of attraction between two bodies change when the distance between then is reduced to one th

xenn [34]

Answer:

The force is now 9 times the original force

Explanation:

Coulomb's Law

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Coulomb's formula is:

$\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

Where:

$k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2$

q1, q2 = the particles' charge

d= The distance between the particles

Suppose the distance is reduced to d'=d/3, the new force F' is:

$\displaystyle F'=k\frac{q_1q_2}{\left(\frac{d}{3}\right)^2}$

$\displaystyle F'=k\frac{q_1q_2}{\frac{d^2}{9}}$

$\displaystyle F'=9k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

$\displaystyle F'=9F$

The force is now 9 times the original force

Speed is velocity in a given direction O True O False

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.
