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.

In a series lrc circuit, the frequency at which the circuit is at resonance is f0. If you double the resistance, the inductance,
taurus [48]

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes f/2.

  • Resonance frequency:

The resonance frequency of RLC series circuit, is the frequency at which the capacity reactance is equal to inductive reactance.

It can also be defined as the natural frequency of an object where it tends to vibrate at a higher amplitude.

Xc = Xl

which gives the value for resonance frequency:

f = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC} }

where;

f is the resonance frequency

L is the inductance

C is the capacitance

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes;

f' = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{2L2C} }

f' = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{4LC} }

f' = \frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{LC} }\frac{1}{2}

f' = \frac{1}{2} f

Thus from above,

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes f/2.

5. Two charged particles are separated by a distance of 12 meters. The Coulomb force between them is 20 N. What will the Coulomb
Leni [432]

Answer:

A) 80 N

Explanation:

The closer the particles get, the stronger the Coulomb force, which elongates choices C and D. The Coulomb force is inversely proportional to the distance squared. If the distance is cut in half, the force is multiplied by the reciprocal of (1/2)^2, which is 4. Multiplying it out, 20 times 4 is 80 N.

a foul ball is hit into the stands at a baseball game. the ball rises to a height of 38 meters and is caught on its way down by
lisov135 [29]

The velocity of the ball when it was caught is 12.52 m/s.

<em>"Your question is not complete it seems to be missing the following, information"</em>,

find the velocity of the ball when it was caught.

The given parameters;

maximum height above the ground reached by the ball, H = 38 m

height above the ground where the ball was caught, h = 30 m

The height traveled by the ball when it was caught is calculated as follows;

y = H - h

y = 38 - 30 = 8 m

The velocity of the ball when it was caught is calculated as;

v_f^2 = v_0 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 0 + (2\times 9.8 \times 8)\\\\v_f^2 = 156.8\\\\v_f = \sqrt{156.8} \\\\v_f = 12.52 \ m/s

Thus, the velocity of the ball when it was caught is 12.52 m/s.

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs
