A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle

l to the ground, and a vertical uniform electric field of strength 260N/C passes upward through the tetrahedron.What is the electric flux through the base?What is the electric flux through each of the three sides?

Answer:

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

Explanation:

given,

equilateral triangle of base = 25 cm

electric field strength = 260 N/C

Area of triangle = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2

                          =  \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4} 0.25^2

                          = 0.0271 m³

electric flux = E. A

                   = 260 × 0.0271

                   = 7.046 N m²/C

since, tetrahedron does not enclose any charge so, net flux through tetrahedron is zero.

electric flux through the three side = (electric flux through base)/3

                               = \dfrac{7.046}{3}

electric flux through the three side = 2.35 N m²/C

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

a) 17.49 seconds

b) 13.12 seconds

c) 2.99 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Acceleration = a = 1.35 m/s²

Final velocity = v = 85 km/h = 85\frac{1000}{3600}=23.61\ m/s

Initial velocity = u = 0

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 23.61=0+1.35t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.35}=17.49\ s

Time taken to accelerate to top speed is 17.49 seconds.

b) Acceleration = a = -1.8 m/s²

Initial velocity = u = 23.61\ m/s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61-1.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.8}=13.12\ s

Time taken to stop the train from top speed is 13.12 seconds

c) Initial velocity = u = 23.61 m/s

Time taken = t = 7.9 s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61+a7.9\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{-23.61}{7.9}=-2.99\ m/s^2

Emergency acceleration is 2.99 m/s² (magnitude)

Police radar equipment is used to detect the speed of objects. In one trial, the radar equipment records a stationary tree as tr
Brut [27]

Answer:

reliability

accuracy

Explanation:

If a reading of a measurement is consistently the same then the measurement is reliable.

If a reading of measurement is close the actual value of the measurement then the reading is accurate.

Here, a stationary tree shows reading 6 mph once and 0 mph another instant. So, neither the reading of a measurement is consistent not the reading of measurement is close the actual value.

Hence, the radar has problems in its reliability and accuracy

What causes light to bend when it moves from one transport medium to another
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another is called refraction. The angle and wavelength at which the light enters a substance and the density of that substance determine how much the light is refracted. The bending occurs because light travels more slowly in a denser medium.

hope this helped :))

GIVING BRAINLIEST FIVE STARS AND 25 POINTS!
Ne4ueva [31]

Engines can overheat for many reasons. In general, it's because something's wrong within the cooling system and heat isn't able to escape the engine compartment. The source of the issue could include a cooling system leak, faulty radiator fan, broken water pump, or clogged coolant hose.

Hope it helps! Have a nice day or night!
