You are on a train traveling east at speed of 18 m/s with respect to the ground. 1) If you walk east toward the front of the tra

Answer:

19.2 m/s

Explanation:

The train is moving at 18 m/s and you are walking in the same direction (east) so the speeds are added

18 + 1.2 = 19.2

If you were walking backwards (west) your velocity with respect to the ground would be

18 - 1.2 = 16.8

What is the relationship between a photons energy and its wavelength?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The amount of energy is directly proportional to the photon's electromagnetic frequency and thus, equivalently, is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The higher the photon's frequency, the higher its energy. Equivalently, the longer the photon's wavelength, the lower its energy.

Two boys are sliding toward each other on a frictionless, ice-covered parking lot. Jacob, mass 45 kg, is gliding to the right at
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

v=0.3381\ m.s^{-1} in the direction of motion of Jacob

Explanation:

Given:

mass  of Jacob, m_j=45\ kg

velocity of Jacob, v_j=8.08\ m.s^{-1}

mass of Ethan, m_e=31\ kg

velocity of Ethan, v_e=10.9\ m.s^{-1}

Now using the conservation of linear momentum for the case:

(When the two masses in motion combine to form one after the collision then they will move together in the direction of the greater momentum.)

(m_j+m_e).v=m_j.v_j-m_e.v_e

(45+31)\times v=45\times 8.08-31\times 10.9

v=0.3381\ m.s^{-1} in the direction of motion of Jacob as it was assumed to be positive.

A metal cube with sides of length a=1cm is moving at velocity v0→=1m/sj^ across a uniform magnetic field B0→=5Tk^. The cube is o
Nitella [24]

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

Explanation:

The induced emf in the cube ε = LB.v where B = magnitude of electric field = 5 T , L = length of side of cube = 1 cm = 0.01 m and v = velocity of cube = 1 m/s

ε = LB.v = 0.01 m × 5 T × 1 m/s = 0.05 V

Also, induced emf in the cube ε = ∫E.ds around the loop of the cube where E = electric field in metal cube

ε = ∫E.ds

ε = Eds since E is always parallel to the side of the cube

= E∫ds  ∫ds = 4L since we have 4 sides

= E(4L)

= 4EL

So,4EL = 0.05 V

E = 0.05 V/4L

= 0.05 V/(4 × 0.01 m)

= 0.05 V/0.04 m

= 1.25 V/m

= 1.25 N/C

So, the magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

An inventor develops a stationary cycling device by which an individual, while pedaling, can convert all of the energy expended
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Emec = 94050 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must understand that all thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy.

The thermal energy can be calculated by means of the following expression.

Q=m*C_{p}*(T_{final}-T_{initial})

where:

Q = heat [J]

Cp = specific heat of water = 4186 [J/kg*°C]

m = mass = 300 [g] = 0.3 [kg]

T_final = 95 [°C]

T_initial = 20 [°C]

Now we can calculate the heat, replacing the given values:

Q=0.3*4180*(95-20)\\Q= 94050[J]

Since all this energy must come from the mechanical energy delivered by the exercise bike, and no energy is lost during the process, the mechanical energy must be equal to the thermal energy.

Q=E_{mec}\\E_{mec}=94050[J]

By applying a force of one Newton, one can hold a body of mass _​
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

By applying a force of one Newton, one can hold a body of mass of 102 gram.

Explanation:

  • Force is the pull or push of an object. It can be mathematically measured as, F= m* g.

                       where, F= force in newton

                                  m= mass in kg

                                  g= acceleration due to gravity (meter/second^{2} )

  • For 1 newton force,

                                   F= m* 9.8

                            or,   m= \frac{1}{9.8}= 0.102 kg

                            or,   m= 102 gram.

  • Hence, 102 gram mass can be hold by one Newton force.
