Answer:

0.4752 oz.

Explanation:

Length = 1000 ft

Converting ft to inches,

12 in = 1 ft

1000 ft = 1000 * 12

= 12000 in

0.05082 in = 0.12908 cm

Mass = 19.8 lb

Converting lb to oz,

1 ounce = 0.0625 lb

1 lb = 1/0.0625 oz

19.8 lb = 1/0.0625 * 19.8

= 316.8 ounce

Since, 12000 in of copper wire weighs 316.8 ounces.

Therefore, 1 in will weigh = 316.8/12000

= 0.0264 oz

18 in = 0.0264 * 18

= 0.4752 oz.

Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after

adoni [48]

Answer: v = $1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = $1.609 * 10^{-19} c$

mass of an electronic charge = $9.10 * 10^{-31} kg$

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = $\frac{mv^{2} }{2}$ , potential energy = qV

hence, $\frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV$

$\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31} * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s$

A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 38 ft/s2. what is the dist

e-lub [12.9K]

Convert 38 ft/s^2 to mi/h^2. Then we se the conversion factor > 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.

So now we show it > $38 \frac{ft}{s^2} x \frac{1mi}{5280ft} x \frac{(3600s)^2}{(1h)^2} = 93272.27 \frac{mi}{h^2}$

Then we have to use the formula of constant acceleration to determine the distance traveled by the car before it ended up stopping.

Which the formula for constant acceleration would be > $v_2^2=v_1^2 + 2as$

The initial velocity is 50mi/h $(v_1=50)$

When it stops the final velocity is $(v_2=0)$

Since the given is deceleration it means the number we had gotten earlier would be a negative so a = -93272.27

Then we substitute the values in....

$0^2 = 50^2 + 2(-93272.27)s

0 = 2500 - 186544.54s

Isolate S next.

185644.54s= 2500

s = 2500/(185644.54)

s=0.0134
$

So we can say the car stopped at 0.0134 miles before it came to a stop but to express the distance traveled in feet we need to use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet in otherwards > $0.0134 mi * \frac{5280ft}{1mi} = 70.8 ft$
So this means that the car traveled in feet 70.8 ft before it came to a stop.
