A car accelerates uniformly from rest at a speed of 1.67 ft s^2 over a distance of 5 yards.What is the acceleration of a car?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a= 17.69 m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to 23 m/s

u= 0m/s

v= 23m/s

distance= 30m

Step two:

We know that

acceleration= velocity/time

also,

velocity= distance/time

23= 30/t

t= 30/23

t= 1.30 seconds

hence

acceleration= 23/1.30

accelaration= 17.69 m/s^2

"What is the magnifying power of an astronomical telescope using a reflecting mirror whose radius of curvature is 5.9 m and an e
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

Explanation:

Radius of curvature R = 5.9 m = 590 cm

focal length of objective f_{objective} = \frac{R}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = \frac{590}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = 295 cm

Focal length of eyepiece f_{eyepiece} = 2.7 cm

Magnifying power of a telescope is given by,

M = \frac{f_{objective} }{f_{eyepiece} }

M = \frac{295}{2.7}

M = 109.26

therefore the Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

The aurora is caused when electrons and protons, moving in the earth’s magnetic field of ≈5.0×10−5t, collide with molecules of t
andreev551 [17]
The question is incomplete. I can help you by adding the information missing. They want you to calculate a) the radius of the cyclotron orbit for an electron with speed 1.0 * 10^6 m/s^2 and b) the radius of a cyclotron orbit for a proton with speed 5.0 * 10^4 m/s.

The two tasks involve combining the equations of the magnectic force and the centripetal force in a circular motion.

When you do that, you will obtain an expression to find the radius of the circular motion, which is the radius of the cyclotron that impulses the particles.

a)

Magentic force, F = q*v*B

q is the charge of the electron = 1.6 * 10^ -19 C
v is the speed = 1.0 * 10 ^ 6 m/s
B is the magentic field = 5.0 * 10 ^-5 T

Centripetal force, F = m*Ac = m * v^2 / R

where,

Ac = centripetal acceleration
m = mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10 ^-31 kg
R = the radius of the orbit

Now equal the two forces: q*v*B = m * v^2 / R => R =  m*v / (q*B)

=> R = (9.11 * 10^31 kg) (1.0*10^6m/s) / [ (1.6 * 10^-19C)* (5.0 * 10^-5T) ]

=> R = 0.114 m

b) The equations are the same, just now use the speed, charge and mass of the proton instead of those of the electron.

R = m*v / (qB) = (1.66*10^-27 kg)(5.0*10^4 m/s) / [(1.6*10^-19C)(5*10^-5T)]

=> R = 10.4 m
