Answer:

Required time t=5.8s

Explanation:

Given data

Acceleration a=3.08 m/s²

Speed v=29.4 m/s

Required

How much time t is required

Solution

As the train passes through the crossing its motion is described by:

v=v_{o}+at\\v-v_{o}=at\\and\\x=\frac{1}{2}(v+v_{o})t\\v+v_{o}=\frac{2x}{t}\\ So\\v=\frac{1}{2}(at+\frac{2x}{t} ) \\

Substitute the given values

So

v=\frac{1}{2}((3.08m/s^2)(2.93s)+\frac{2(20.8m)}{2.93s} )\\v=11.61m/s

So time required can be calculated by:

t=\frac{v-v_{o}}{a} \\t=\frac{29.4m/s-11.61m/s}{3.08m/s^2}\\ t=5.8s

Required time t=5.8s

To properly operate the laboratory thermometer Group of answer choices it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely

Explanation:

To properly operate the laboratory thermometer  it needs to be shaken but make sure you have enough room to shake it safely. This done because there is a small bend in the mercury channel of a clinical thermometer that uses mercury. You must shake the thermometer to get the mercury from a previous reading from the thermometer back into the bulb for taking new reading. The bend prevents flow back into the tube so that one can comfortably take reading.

On Earth, plasma exists in the ionosphere, in flames, and in chemical and nuclearexplosions. Matter in a controlled thermonuclea
nasty-shy [4]

The cost of developing thermonuclear power with plasmabe defended because D. It can provide an inexpensive power source.

<h3>How did the cost of developing thermonuclear power defended?</h3>

The  cost of developing thermonuclear power defended becvause we can see in the paragraph how it was told that the generation of ths power can be donee through the understanding of  the occurrence of plasmain nature,

It should be noted that this  thermonuclear power with plasmabe  posses the characteristics which make it to exist in the ionosphere, and it can be felt in the flames as well; as in the chemical and nuclearexplosions.

In conclusion the power can be seen as an inexpensive source power because the p[roduction of this power cn be found in most of the thing that can be found around us as discused above.

Therefore, option D is correct.

A 123-turn circular coil of radius 2.41 cm is immersed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coi
klasskru [66]

Answer:

67.44 V

Explanation:

Number of turns N =123

Radius = 2.41 cm =0.0241 m

The magnetic field strength increases from 50.9 T to 96.3 T so change in magnetic field dB = 96.3-50.9=45.4 T

Time interval dt = 0.151 sec

We know that the induced emf e=-NA\frac{dB}{dt}

Area A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.0241^2=1.8237\times 10^{-3}m^2

Putting all these values in emf equation e=-123\times 1.8237\times 10^{-3}\times \frac{45.4}{0.151}=-67.44\ V here negative sign indicates that it opposes the cause due to which it is produced
