Answer:

B) 5

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage = D/W

= 10/2

= 5.

It has no unit because the inches in the length and width will cancel out.

A particle with charge − 2.74 × 10 − 6 C −2.74×10−6 C is released at rest in a region of constant, uniform electric field. Assum

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

241.7 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge of particle= $q=-2.74\times 10^{-6} C$

Kinetic energy of particle= $K_E=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

Initial time= $t_1=6.36 s$

Final potential difference= $V_2=0.351 V$

We have to find the time t after that the particle is released and traveled through a potential difference 0.351 V.

We know that

$qV=K.E$

Using the formula

$2.74\times 10^{-6}V_1=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

$V_1=\frac{6.65\times 10^{-10}}{2.74\times 10^{-6}}=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

Initial voltage= $V_1=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

$\frac{\initial\;voltage}{final\;voltage}=(\frac{initial\;time}{final\;time})^2$

Using the formula

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=(\frac{6.36}{t})^2$

$\frac{2.43\times 10^{-4}}{0.351}=\frac{(6.36)^2}{t^2}$

$t^2=\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}}$

$t=241.7 s$

Hence, after 241.7 s the particle is released has it traveled through a potential difference of 0.351 V.

A sports car is advertised to be able to stop in a distance of 50.0 m from a speed of 80 km. What is its acceleration and how ma

Flauer [41]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the sports car, u = 80 km/h = 22.22 m/s

Final speed of the runner, v = 0

Distance covered by the sports car, d = 80 km = 80000 m

Let a is the acceleration of the sports car. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

$v^2-u^2=2ad$

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}$

$a=\dfrac{0-(22.22)^2}{2\times 80000}$

$a=-0.00308\ m/s^2$

Value of g, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

$a=\dfrac{-0.00308}{9.8}\ m/s^2$

$a=(-0.000314)\ g\ m/s^2$

Hence, this is required solution.
