Answer:

0.7 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Distance travalled (d) = 190 m

Time (t) = 260 secs

Speed (S) =..?

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance (d) /time(t)

S = d/t

With the above formula, we can calculate the speed of the security guard as follow:

Distance travalled (d) = 190 m

Time (t) = 260 secs

Speed (S) =..?

S = d/t

S = 190/260

S = 0.7 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the security guard is 0.7 m/s

what is the electric potential at point A in the electric field created by a point charge of 5.5 • 10^-12 C? estimate k as 9.00
Hitman42 [59]

The electric potential at point A in the electric field= 0.099 x 10 ⁻¹v

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given data,

charge = 5.5 x 10¹² C

k =9.00 x 10⁹

The electric potential V of a point charge can found by,

V= kQ / r

Assuming, r=5.00×10⁻² m

V= 5.5 x 10⁻¹²C x  9.00 x 10⁹ / 5.00×10⁻² m

V=  49.5 x 10⁻³/ 5.00×10⁻²

Electric potential V=  0.099 x 10⁻¹v

The two blocks in oscillate on a frictionless surface with a period of 1.5 s. The upper block just begins to slip when the ampli
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

0.72

Explanation:

T = Time period of oscillation = 1.5 s

Angular frequency is given as

w = \frac{2\pi }{T}\\w = \frac{2(3.14) }{1.5}\\w = 4.2 rad/s

A = Amplitude of oscillation = 40 cm = 0.40 m

\mu = Coefficient of static friction = ?

a = acceleration of the block

m = mass of the block

Maximum acceleration of the block is given as

a = Aw^{2}

frictional force is given as

f = \mu mg

As per newton's second law

f = ma \\\\\mu mg = ma \\\mu g = a\\\mu g = Aw^{2}\\\mu (9.8) = (0.40)(4.2)^{2}\\\mu = 0.72

How long does it take the moon to go through an entire set of phases?.
Bas_tet [7]

It take <u>approximately 29</u><u>.</u><u>5 </u><u>days</u> for moon to do its entire set of phases.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The Moon is the only natural satellite of the Earth which undergoes three motions, that is :

  • Rotating on its own axis
  • Evolving around the Earth
  • Together with the Earth evolving around the sun as the center of the solar system

With that, the moon has two periods of revolution, namely:

  • Sidereal revolution, which is the original revolution of the Moon. This sidereal revolution is really the time it takes the Moon to orbit the Earth. The sidereal revolution of the moon has a time span of <u>27.3 days</u> or more accurate is approximately 27 days, 7.72 hours.
  • Synodic revolution, namely the revolution of the Moon as seen from Earth as a series of moon phases (from the new moon phase, to the next new moon phase). The synodic revolution is slower, because the Moon needs to catch up with the Earth rotating in the same direction as the Moon. The synodic revolution of the moon has a time span of 29.5 days or to be more accurate approx 29 days, 12.734 hours.
