The position-time graph for a bug crawling along a line is shown in item 4 below. Determine whether the velocity is positive, ne

gative, or zero at each of the times marked on the graph.

Answer: The velocity at different marked time points are given as

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Explanation:

The slope of the tangent of the curve indicates the instantaneous velocity. So if the slope of the tangent is positive, that Is, the tangent makes a positive angle (above the horizontal axis) with the horizontal

axis, then the velocity at this point is positive, and if the slope of the tangent is negative, that is the tangent makes a negative angle with the horizontal axis (below the horizontal axis), then the velocity at this point is negative.

When the tangent of the line is parallel to the horizontal axis, the velocity is 0.

From the position-time graph attached, the sign on the instantaneous velocity for each time marked on the graph is given below

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Viktor [21]
Here we have perfectly inelastic collision. Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:
m_{1} * v_{1} + m_{2} * v_{2} = m_{1} * v'_{1}+ m_{2} * v'_{2}

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.

We are given information:
m₁=0.5kg
m₂=0.8kg
v₁=3m/s
v₂=2m/s
v'₁=v'₂=x

0.5*3 + 0.8*2 = 0.5*x + 0.8*x
1.5 + 1.6 = 1.3x
3.1 = 1.3x
x = 2.4 m/s

Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The
IRISSAK [1]

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Electromagnetic Force. The magnetic force can be defined as the product between the free space constant, the current (of each cable) and the length of these, on the perimeter of the cross section, in this case circular. Mathematically it can be expressed as,

F= \frac{\mu_0}{2\pi} \frac{I^2L}{d}

Here,

\mu_0 = Permeability free space

I = Current

L = Length

d= Distance between them

Our values are,

L = 0.67m

m = 0.082kg

d = 7.4*10^{-3}m

I = \text{Current through each of the wires}

Rearranging the previous equation to find the current,

\frac{mg}{L} = 2*10^{-7} (\frac{I^2}{d})

I = \sqrt{\frac{mgd}{(2*10^{-7})L}}

I = \sqrt{\frac{(0.082)(9.8)(7.4*10^{-3})}{(2*10^{-7})(0.67)}}

I = \sqrt{44377.9}

I = 210.66A

Therefore the current in the rods is 210.6A
