Answer:

232.641374 mph

Explanation:

A race car has a maximum speed of 0.104km/s

Let X represent the speed in miles per hour

Therefore the speed in miles per hour can be calculated as follows

1 km/s = 2,236.936292 mph

0.104km/s = X

X = 0.104 × 2,236.936292

X = 232.641374

Hence the speed in miles per hour is 232.641374 mph

Water runs into a fountain, filling all the pipes, at a steady rate of 0.750 m3>s. (a) How fast will it shoot out of a hole 4

kati45 [8]

Answer:

velocity = 472 m/s

velocity = 52.4 m/s

Explanation:

given data

steady rate = 0.750 m³/s

diameter = 4.50 cm

solution

we use here flow rate formula that is

flow rate = Area × velocity .............1

0.750 = $\frac{\pi }{4}$ × (4.50× $10^{-2}$ )² × velocity

solve it we get

velocity = 472 m/s

and

when it 3 time diameter

put valuer in equation 1

0.750 = $\frac{\pi }{4}$ × 3 × (4.50× $10^{-2}$ )² × velocity

velocity = 52.4 m/s

You and your friends are having a discussion about weight. He/she claims that he/she weighs less on the 100th floor of a buildin

Viktor [21]

Answer:

if the weight theoretically decreases at this height, but in a fraction of 10⁻⁵, which is not appreciable in any scale, therefore, the reading of the scale in the two places is the same.

Explanation:

The weight of a person in the force with which the Earth attracts the person, therefore can be calculated using the law of universal attraction

F = G m M / r²

Where m is the mass of the person, M the masses of the earth

Let's call the person's weight at ground level as Wo and suppose the distance to the center of the Earth is Re

W₀ = G m M / Re²

In the calculation of the weight of the person on the 100th floor the only thing that changes is the distance

r = Re + 100 r₀

Where r₀ is the distance between the floors, which is approximately 2.5 m, so the distance is

r = Re + 250

We substitute

W = G m M / r²

W = G m M / (Re + 250)²

The value of Re is 6.37 10⁶ m, so we can take it out as a factor and perform a serial expansion of the remaining fraction

W = G m M / Re² (1+ 250 / Re)²

(1 + 250 / Re)⁻² = 1 + (-2) 250 / Re + (-2 (-2-1)) / 2 (250 / Re)² +….

The value of the expression is

(1 + 250 / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 250 / 6.37 10⁶ -30 (250 / 6.37)² 10⁻¹² + ...

We can see that the quadratic term is very small, which is why we despise it, we substitute in the weight equation

W = G m M / Re² (1 - 78.5 10⁻⁶)

Remains

W = Wo (1 - 7.85 10⁻⁵)

We can see that if the weight theoretically decreases at this height, but in a fraction of 10⁻⁵, which is not appreciable in any scale, therefore, the reading of the scale in the two places is the same.

Is a process that modifies light waves so they vibrate in a single plane

madam [21]

The process you're fishing for is "polarization", but that's a

misleading description.

Polarization doesn't do anything to change the light waves.

It simply filters out (absorbs, as with a polarizing filter) the

light waves that aren't vibrating in the desired plane, and

allows only those that are to pass.

The intensity of a light beam is always reduced after

polarizing it, because much (most) of the original light

has been removed.

A laser light source may be thought of as an exception,

since everything coming out of the laser is polarized.

A piano wire with mass 2.60g and length 84.0 cm is stretched with a tension of 25.0 N. A wave with frequency 120.0 Hz and amplit

likoan [24]

Answer:

Power will be 0.2023 watt

And when amplitude is halved then power will be 0.0505 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass of the Piano wire m = 2.60 gram = 0.0026 kg

Length of wire l = 84 cm = 0.84 m

So mass density $\mu =\frac{m}{l}=\frac{0.0026}{0.84}=0.0031kg/m$

Tension in the wire T = 25 N

Frequency f = 120 Hz

So angular frequency $\omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 120=753.6rad/sec$

And amplitude A = 1.6 mm = 0.0016 m

We have to find the generated power

Power is given by $P=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\mu T}\omega ^2A^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \sqrt{0.0031\times 25}\times 753.6^2\times 0.0016^2=0.2023watt$

From the relation we can see that power $P\ \propto\ A^2$

So if amplitude is halved then power will be $\frac{1}{4}$ times

So power will be equal to $\frac{0.2023}{2}=0.0505watt$

How should the student change the circuit to give negative values for current and

natulia [17]

Answer:

changing the polarity or direction of the battery changes the sign of the voltage and the current

Explanation:

The sign of current and voltage are due to established conventions.

The way that a DC circuit with negative current values is by changing the polarity of the power source or by inverting the battery, this creates that the electrons move in the opposite direction

Changing the battery also changes the direction of the power difference, since the potential from positive to negative, in most cases negative is assigned a potential of zero volts

In summary, changing the polarity or direction of the battery changes the sign of the voltage and the current
