Answer:

3.43 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force is equal to mass times acceleration. (F=ma). You can use inverse operations to get the formula for acceleration, which is acceleration is equal to force divided by mass. (a=F/m). Since there are two forces here, the force friction (55 N), and the force applied (175 N), we must solve for the net force. To solve for the net force, you take the applied force (175 N) and subtract the frictional force from it (55 N). Thus, the net force is 120 N. With this done, we can now solve for our acceleration.

Using the equation for acceleration, we take the force and divide it by mass.

120/35

Answer: 3.43* m/s^2**

*Note: This is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the full answer is: 3.42857143

**Note: In case you're confused, this is meters per second squared.

A capacitor consists of two square plates, 8.7 cm on a side, separated by a 2.0 mm air gap. How much energy would be stored in t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

122.84 J

Explanation:

Since plate is square, area, A is given by (8.7/100)^{2}=0.007569m^{2}

The distance between plates, d, is given in the question as 2mm=0.002m

Charge on plate, Q, as given in the question is 240 \mu c

Assuming mica dielectric constant, k of 7

Capacitance, C is given by

C=\frac {k\epsilon_{o}A}{d}=\frac {(7)(8.85*10^{-12})(0.007569)}{0.002}=2.34*10*^{-10}F

Stored energy, E is given by

E=\frac {Q^{2}}{2C}=\frac {(240*10^{-6})^{2}}{2*(2.34*10^{-10})}=122.84J

Therefore, the stored energy is 122.84 J

An automobile travels on a straight road for 42 km at 45 km/h. it then continues in the same direction for another 42 km at 90 k
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) The average velocity is v = (60 km/h ; 0)

b) The average speed is 60 km/h

Explanation:

The velocity is a vector that has a magnitude and direction. The average speed is the distance traveled over time without taking into account the direction of the motion.

a)The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:

v = Δx/Δt

where

v = velocity

Δx = final position - initial position = traveled distance relative to the center of the reference system.

Δt = final time - initial time (initial time is usually = 0)

We know that the displacement is 84 km but we do not know the time. It can be calculated from the two parts of the trip.

In part 1:

v = 45 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 0.93 h

In part 2:

v = 90 km/h = 42 km / t

t = 42 km / 90 km/h

t = 0.47 h

The time of travel is 0.47 h + 0.93 h = 1.4 h

The average velocity will be:

v = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

Expressed as a vector in a 2-dimension plane:

v = (60 km/h; 0)

b) The average speed is calculated as the distance traveled over time. Note that in this case, the distance is equal to the displacement since the direction of the motion is always in one direction. But if the direction of the second part of the trip would have been the opposite to the direction of the first part, the displacement would have been 0 (final position - initial position = 0, because final position = initial position), then, the average velocity would have been 0. In change, the average speed would have been the distance traveled (84 km, 42 km in one direction and 42 km in the other) over time.

Then:

average speed = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h

c) see attached figure.

Please explain how to solve 17 and 18
andriy [413]

Answer:

17. h = l − l cos θ

18. 1.40 m

Explanation:

Let's call d the height of the triangle.  We can then say:

h = l − d

Using trig, we can write d in terms of l and θ:

d = l cos θ

h = l − l cos θ

If l = 6 m and l cos θ = 40°:

h = 6 − 6 cos 40

h ≈ 1.40
