Defiance Drake, Space Adventurer, desperately needs to reach a cargo vessel 100m away, or run out of air and die in deep space.

For our purposes, there are two relevant directions, the direction Defiance is traveling in (the x-direction, at 1 m/s), and direction of the cargo ship's motion, which is perpendicular to her motion (y-direction, 10 m/s). Defiance uses her jet boots, choosing to accelerate directly in the x-direction at 0.25g (she starts at (x=100,y=0)). If the cargo vessel is 25 m long, and its nose cone starts at x=0,y=0, will Defiance reach the ship or miss? If she misses, how should she have chosen her path (assume she cannot exceed 1 g)?

She misses. She should have accelerated faster in order to get to her target.

What is the magnetic flux density (B-field) at a distance of 0.36 m from a long, straight wire carrying a current of 3.8 A in ai
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The magnetic flux density is 2.11\times10^{-6}\ T

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 0.36 m

Current = 3.8 A

We need to calculate the magnetic flux density

Using formula of magnetic field

B =\dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2r}

Where,

r = radius

I = current

Put the value into the formula

B =\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times3.8}{2\times\pi\times0.36}

B=2.11\times10^{-6}\ T

Hence, The magnetic flux density is 2.11\times10^{-6}\ T

A parallel circuit has a total current of 4 Amperes and an equivalent resistance of .5 Ohms. What is the power in this circuit?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

=8.0 Watts

Explanation:

Power is a ratio of work done over time. The power in an electric circuit is calculated using the following formula:

P=I²R

P is power, I is  current, R is resistance

Therefore,  Power= 4²ₓ 0.5Ω

=8.0 Watts

A 43 kg box is being pushed and pulled by
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a = - 0.209 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

We will take the positive forces to the right and the negative forces to the left.

155-277+113=43*a\\-9=43*a\\a = - 0.209[m/s^{2} ]

The negative sign means that the box accelerates in a negative direction to the left.
