(a) If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is 1.34 m/s² and subway stations are located

806 m apart, what is the maximum speed a subway train can attain between stations? (b) What is the travel time between stations? (c) If a subway train stops for 20 s at each station, what is the maximum average speed of the train, from one start-up to the next? (d) Graph x, ν, and a versus t for the interval from one start-up to the next.

Answer:

The correct answer is 32.9 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this, we list out the known and the unknown variables as follows

Maximum allowable acceleration = 1.34 m/s²

Distance between sttions = 806 m

Therefore from the equation of motion

v = ut + 0.5·×at²

Where v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

S = distance covered

t  = time

a = acceleration

Also v² = u² + 2·a·S

where u is the initial velocity, which we can take as u = 0, then

v² = 2·1.34·S = 2.68S m²/s²  then

Also the train has to decelerate from maximum speed to stop at the next tran station wherev = 0, thus v² = u² -2·1.34·Z,  so u² = 2.68Z

since u² = 2.68S from the previous calculation, then for v = 0

2.68S = 2.68Z thus S = Z which and to reach the next subway station S + Z must be = 806 m, then S = 806 m ÷ 2 = 403 m

and v² = 2.68S m²/s² = 1080.04 m²/s²

v = 32.9 m/s

The maximum speed a subway train can attain between stations is 32.9 m/s

Please help me with this question someone
Gekata [30.6K]
From the answers provided, I believe the possible answer would be the last option, silicon, oxygen, and one or more metals. Here's my reasoning: the most abundant mineral group found in the Earth's crust is the silicate group. The silicate materials contain both oxygen and silicon. Silicates are the most common minerals in the rock-formation process, and it has, in fact, been estimated that they make up 75 to 90 percent of the Earth's crust. From this piece of evidence, I can guess that the answer will possibly be D, silicon, oxygen, and one or more metals.
It should also be noted that the additional elements that combine with the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron are involved with the other elements commonly found in the Earth's crust and mantle. They are aluminum, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and sodium.

Define limitations in the operation conditions of a pn junction<br>​
suter [353]

Answer:

Such limitations are given below.

Explanation:

  • Each pn junction provides limited measurements of maximum forwarding current, highest possible inversion voltage as well as the maximum output level.
  • If controlled within certain adsorption conditions, the pn junction could very well offer satisfying performance.
  • In connector operation, the maximum inversion voltage seems to be of significant importance.
