Answer:

Acceleration, $a=2\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

A car moving south speeds up from 10 m/s to 40 m/s in 15 seconds.

It means,

Initial velocity of the car, u = 10 m/s

Final velocity of the car, v = 40 m/s

Time taken, t = 15 seconds

We have to find the acceleration of the car. Mathematically, acceleration of the car is given by taking difference in velocities divided by time taken i.e.

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{40\ m/s-10\ m/s}{15\ s}$

$a=2\ m/s^2$

Hence, this is the required solution.

What does the equation n =Pout/Pin mean?

Darya [45]

N= energy efficiency pout means output and pin means input the reason this would show efficiency is because your output should be greater then your input and because depending on how small your number is after your division will tell you how efficient it is you want a big number.

enyata [817]

Answer:

The maximum frequency of revolution is 3.6 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 8 kg

Distance = 400 mm

Tension = 800 N

We need to calculate the velocity

Using centripetal force

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

Where, F= tension

m = mass

v= velocity

r = radius of circle

Put the value into the formula

$800=\dfrac{8\times v^2}{200\times10^{-3}}$

$v^2=\sqrt{\dfrac{800\times200\times10^{-3}}{8}}$

$v=4.47\ m/s$

We need to calculate the maximum frequency of revolution

Using formula of frequency

$f=\dfrac{v}{2\pi r}$

Put the value into the formula

$f=\dfrac{4.47}{2\pi\times200\times10^{-3}}$

$f=3.6\ Hz$

Hence, The maximum frequency of revolution is 3.6 Hz.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 30.1: Inductors in Circuits. A circuit has a 1 V battery connected in series with a switch.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

0.0133A

Explanation:

Since we have two sections, for the Inductor region there would be a current $i_1$ . In the case of resistance 2, it will cross a current $i_2$

Defined this we proceed to obtain our equations,

For $i_1$ ,

$\frac{di_1}{dt}+i_1R_1 = V$

$I_1 = \frac{V}{R_1} (1-e^{-\frac{R_1t}{L}})$

For $i_2$ ,

$I_2R_2 =V$

$I_2 = \frac{V}{R_2}$

The current in the entire battery is equivalent to,

$i_t = I_1+I_2$

$i_t = \frac{V}{R_2}+\frac{V}{R_1} (1-e^{-\frac{R_1t}{L}})$

Our values are,

$V=1V$

$R_1 = 95\Omega$

$L= 1.5*10^{-2}H$

$R_2 =360\Omega$

Replacing in the current for t= 0.4m/s

$i=\frac{1}{360}+\frac{1}{95}(1-e^{-\frac{95*0.4}{1.5*10^{-2}}})$

$i= 0.0133A$

$i_1 = 0.01052A$

When a mass of 0.350 kg is attached to a vertical spring and lowered slowly, the spring stretches 12.0 cm. The mass is now displ

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

period of oscillations is 0.695 second

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.350 kg

spring stretches x = 12 cm = 0.12 m

to find out

period of oscillations

solution

we know here that force

force = k × x .........1

so force = mg = 0.35 (9.8) = 3.43 N

3.43 = k × 0.12

k = 28.58 N/m

so period of oscillations is

period of oscillations = 2π × $\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$ ................2

put here value

period of oscillations = 2π × $\sqrt{\frac{0.35}{28.58} }$

period of oscillations = 0.6953

so period of oscillations is 0.695 second
