Harry Potter is chasing his nemesis Draco Malfoy during a quidditch match. Initially, Harry is 35m behind Draco, who has just sp

otted the Golden Snitch hovering 75m away at the edge of the playing field. Draco Flies at a constant speed of 40 m/s straight towards the Golden Snitch. If Harry is originally flying at 50 m/s, what acceleration does he need to reach the Snitch 175 m ahead of Draco? How fast will Harry be moving when he passes Draco?

Answer:

the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

harry is 35 m behind Draco

speed of Draco = 40 m/s

original speed of harry = 50 m/s

acceleration = ?

time taken by the Draco

    t =\dfrac{r}{u} =\dfrac{75}{40}

     t = 1.875 s

distance covered by Harry

  d = 35 + 175 = 210 m

to calculate the acceleration of harry

s = u t+ \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

210 = 50\times 1.875+ \dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.875^2

a × 3.516 × 0.5 = 116.25

a = 66.126 m/s²

hence, the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²

A+20 N force acts on a car and at the same time, a -30 N force acts on the
katovenus [111]

Answer:

-10 N, not balanced

Explanation:

Force is a vector quantity, so in order to find the net force on an object, we must use vector addition rule.

This means that if two forces acting on an object along the same line, we have to choose one direction as positive, and write the two forces with the correct sign.

In this problem, we have two forces acting along a line on the car:

- A first force of

F_1 = +20 N

- A second force of

F_2=-30 N

Therefore, the net force on the car is:

\sum F=F_1+F_2=+20 +(-30)=-10 N

Moreover, the net force on an object is said to be "balanced" if it is zero: in this case, it is not zero, so it is not balanced.

Why does a shirt appear white outside on a sunny day?
Maru [420]
The shirt absorbs the sunlight, so it appears white. All the light is reflected, so the shirt appears white. The sunlight refracts when it hits the shirt, so the shirt appears white.

2.613\:\cdot10^5 Joules ; 5. Adding the same amount of heat to two different objects will produce the same increase in temperature ; 2. Same speed in both ; 2. A

Explanation:

Diagram 1 ( Liquid Nitrogen ) : So as you can see, we want our units in Joules here, and can therefore multiply the mass of gaseous nitrogen and the latent heat of liquid nitrogen, to cancel the units kg, and receive our solution - in terms of Joules. Let's do it.

q ( energy removed ) = mass of nitrogen * latent heat of liquid nitrogen,

q = 1.3 kg * 2.01 * 10⁵ J / kg = 1.3\:\cdot \:2.01\:\cdot \:\:10^5 = 10^5\cdot \:2.613 = 100000\cdot \:2.613 = 261300 Joules = 261.3 kiloJoules = 2.613 * 10⁵Joules is the energy that must be removed

Diagram 2 : The same amount of heat does not necessarily mean the same increase in temperature for two different objects. The increase in temperature depends on the specific heat capacity of the substance. Therefore your solution is 5 ) Adding the same amount of heat to two different objects will produce the same increase in temperature.

Diagram 3 : The temperatures in both glasses are the same, and hence the molecules have the same average speed. Therefore your solution is 2 ) Same speed in both.

Diagram 4 : Glass A has more water molecules, and hence has more thermal energy. Your solution is 2 ) A.
