Answer:
(A) Original speed= 9.22 m/s
(B) Acceleration= -1.0099 m\s^2
Explanation:
A truck covers 40m in 7.10 secs
The truck slows down at a uniform velocity of 2.05 m/s
(A) The original speed can be calculated as follows
Vo= 2(40)/7.10 - 2.05
= 80/7.10 - 2.05
= 11.2676 - 2.05
= 9.22m/s
(B) The acceleration can be calculated as follows
a= Vf-Vo/t
= 2.05-9.22/7.10
= -7.17/7.10
= -1.0099m/s^2
Answer:
c. The steady-state value of the current depends on the resistance of the resistor.
Explanation:
Since all the components are connected in series, when the switch is at first open, current will not flow round the circuit. As current needs to flow through from the positive terminal of the battery through the resistor, inductor, and switch to the negative terminal of the battery.
But the moment the switch is closed, at the initial time t = 0, the current flow through from the positive terminal of the battery through the resistor, inductor, and switch to the negative terminal of the battery. It then begins to increase at a rate that depends upon the value of the inductance of the inductor.
Answer: 1.28 sec
Explanation:
Assuming that the glow following the collision was produced instantaneously, as the light propagates in a straight line from Moon to the Earth at a constant speed, we can get the time traveled by the light applying velocity definition as follows:
V = ∆x / ∆t
Solving for ∆t, we have:
∆t = ∆x/v = ∆x/c = 3.84 108 m / 3.8 108 m/s = 1.28 sec
