A train starts from rest. It acquires a speed of 25 m/s after

Physics
1 answer:
fredd [130]3 years ago
3 0

Given parameters:

Initial speed of train  = 0m/s

Final speed  = 25m/s

time = 20s

Unknown:

Total distance covered  = ?

Solution:

Speed is a scalar quantity that has magnitude and no direction.

Mathematically;

     Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

  distance  = speed x time

 Input the parameters and solve for distance;

    Distance  = 25 x 20 = 500m

The distance covered is 500m

Which device uses a rotating magnetic field to produce an electric current?
Kay [80]
<span>The correct answer is C) a motor.
In particular, we are talking about an AC motor, which produces an alternating current. In an AC motor, a coil is immersed in a rotating magnetic field. Due to the motion of the magnetic field,the angle between the direction of the field and the surface enclosed by the coil changes. As a result, the magnetic flux through the coil changes over time (the magnetic flux is given by:
</span>\phi=BAcos\theta<span>
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field, A is the area enclosed by the coil and </span>\theta<span> is the angle between the direction of B and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil). For Faraday-Newmann-Lenz law, this change in flux induces an electromotive force (emf) into the coil, according to:
</span>emf=- \frac{d \Phi}{dt}<span>
 where the numerator is the variation of magnetic flux and dt is the time interval. This emf in the coil produced an electrical current in the circuit.</span>

Which equation is most likely used to determine the acceleration from a velocity vs:time graph?
tresset_1 [31]
Acceleration, a =  (v - u)/t

where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, and t is the time.

This formula on a velocity time graph represents the slope of the graph.

A bullet with a mass ????=12.5 g and speed ????=86.4 m/s is fired into a wooden block with ????=113 g which is initially at rest
skad [1K]

Answer:

a) 8.61 m/s, b) 5.73 m

Explanation:

a) During the collision, momentum is conserved.

mv = (m + M) V

(12.5 g) (86.4 m/s) = (12.5 g + 113 g) V

V = 8.61 m/s

b) After the collision, energy is conserved.

Kinetic energy = Work done by friction

1/2 (m + M) V² = F d

1/2 (m + M) V² = N μk d

1/2 (m + M) V² = (m + M) g μk d

1/2 V² = g μk d

d = V² / (2g μk)

d = (8.61 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s² × 0.659)

d = 5.73 m

Notice we used the kinetic coefficient of friction.  That's the friction when an object is moving.  The static coefficient of friction is the friction on a stationary object.  Since the bullet/block combination is sliding across the surface, we use the kinetic coefficient.
