v = speed of car = 90 km/h

u = speed of truck = 50 km/h

d = initial separation distance = 100 m = 0.1 km

They meet at time t such that

vt = d + ut

t(v - u) = d

t = d/(v - u) = (0.1 km) / [(90 - 50) km/h] = 0.0025 hours

95t - .210 = 50t

95t - 50t = 0.210

45t = 0.210

t = 0.210/45

t = 0.0047 km/hr

The magnetic lines of force always travel from north to south true or false

kumpel [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Magnetic field lines outside of a permanent magnet always run from the north magnetic pole to the south magnetic pole. Therefore, the magnetic field lines of the earth run from the southern geographic hemisphere towards the northern geographic hemisphere.

A particle with mass 1.81*10^-3kg and a charge of 1.22*10^-8C has, at a given instant, a velocity v= (3.0*10^4 m/s)j.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

a = -0.33 m/s² k^

Direction: negative

Explanation:

From Newton's law of motion, we know that;

F = ma

Now, from magnetic fields, we know that;. F = qVB

Thus;

ma = qVB

Where;

m is mass

a is acceleration

q is charge

V is velocity

B is magnetic field

We are given;

m = 1.81 × 10^(−3) kg

q = 1.22 × 10 ^(−8) C

V = (3.00 × 10⁴ m/s) ȷ^.

B = (1.63T) ı^ + (0.980T) ȷ^

Thus, since we are looking for acceleration, from, ma = qVB; let's make a the subject;

a = qVB/m

a = [(1.22 × 10 ^(−8)) × (3.00 × 10⁴)ȷ^ × ((1.63T) ı^ + (0.980T) ȷ^)]/(1.81 × 10^(−3))

From vector multiplication, ȷ^ × ȷ^ = 0 and ȷ^ × i^ = -k^

Thus;

a = -0.33 m/s² k^

An RLC circuit is used in a radio to tune into the radio lagos fm Station broadcasting at 93.5Hz. The resistance is 15ohms and t

bazaltina [42]

The characteristics of the RLC circuit allow to find the result for the capacitance at a resonance of 93.5 Hz is:

Capacitance is C = 1.8 10⁻⁶ F

A series RLC circuit reaches the maximum signal for a specific frequency, called the resonance frequency, this value depends on the impedance of the circuit.

$Z^2 = R^2 + ( wL - \frac{1}{wC} )^2$

Where Z is the impedance of the circuit, R the resistance, L the inductance, C the capacitance and w the angular velocity. The negative sign is due to the fact that the current in the capacitor and the inductor are out of phase.

In the case of resonance, the impedance term completes the circuit as a resistive system.

$wL - \frac{1}{wC} = 0 \\w^2 = \frac{1}{LC}$

Indicate that the inductance L = 1.6 H and the frequency f = 93.5 Hz.

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

w = 2π f

Let's substitute.

$C = \frac{1}{L ( 2 \pi f)^2 }$

Let's calculate.

$C = \frac{1}{1.6 \ ( 2\pi \ 93.5)^2}$

C = 1.8 10⁻⁶ F

In conclusion with the characteristics of the RLC circuits we can find the result for the capacitance at a 93.5 Hz resonance is:

Capacitance is C = 1.8 10⁻⁶ F

Explain how the density of a gas is different from the density of a liquid.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer

The same number of particles in a gas spread further apart than in the liquid or solid states.

Explanation:

The same number of particles in a gas spread further apart than in the liquid or solid states. The same mass takes up a bigger volume. This means the gas is less dense. Density also depends on the material.

False. Weather has periods of change, imagine a rainy day and a sunny day, it is a change in weather
