As a runner crosses the finish line of a race, she starts decelerating from a velocity of 9 m/s at a rate of 2 m/s^2. Take the r

unner's velocity as she crosses the finish line to be in the positive direction. What is the runner’s displacement, in meters, during the first 5 seconds after crossing the finish line?

Answer:

- 1 m/s, 20 m

Explanation:

u = 9 m/s, a = - 2 m/s^2, t = 5 sec

Let s be the displacement and v be the velocity after 5 seconds

Use first equation of motion.

v = u + a t

v = 9 - 2 x 5 = 9 - 10 = - 1 m/s

Use second equation of motion

s = u t + 1/2 a t^2

s = 9 x 5 - 1/2 x 2 x 5 x 5

s = 45 - 25 = 20 m

A 50kg meteorite moving at 1000 m/s strikes Earth. Assume the velocity is along the line joining Earth's center of mass and the
zysi [14]

As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg

                       The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s

When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.

We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.

The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -

                                       Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2

                                                             =\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2

                                                               =\frac{1}{2}50* 10^{6}\ J

                                                               =25*10^6\ J    

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.

Hence,\ the\ kinetic\ energy\ gained\ by\ earth\ is\ 25*10^6\ J

A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N1 turns. A second toroidal solenoid w
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Mutual inductance, M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H

Explanation:

(a) A toroidal solenoid with mean radius r and cross-sectional area A is wound uniformly with N₁ turns. A second thyroidal solenoid with N₂ turns is wound uniformly on top of the first, so that the two solenoids have the same cross-sectional area and mean radius.

Mutual inductance is given by :

M=\dfrac{\mu_oN_1N_2A}{2\pi r}

(b) It is given that,

N_1=550

N_2=290

Radius, r = 10.6 cm = 0.106 m

Area of toroid, A=0.76\ cm^2=7.6\times 10^{-5}\ m^2

Mutual inductance, M=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 550\times 290\times 7.6\times 10^{-5}}{2\pi \times 0.106}

M=0.0000228\ H

or

M=2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H

So, the value of mutual inductance of the toroidal solenoid is 2.28\times 10^{-5}\ H. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

74^{\circ} C

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass,m=300 g

T_1=23^{\circ}

Volume,V=236cm^3

Mass of water=density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g

Density of water=1g/cm^3

Temperature of hot water,T=87^{\circ}

Specific heat of glass,C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water,C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C

Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)

Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)

Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0

300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)

60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0

296T_f=20532+1380=21912

T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<h2>23.33 kg </h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m  = \frac{42}{1.8}   = 23.3333... \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>23.33 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you
