1 answer:

8 0

Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
Based on the listed choices, the one that is considered as a disadvantage of radio telescopes over optical telescopes is that "t<span>hey have greater resolution for similar size collectors." Hope this answers your question.</span>

A car with a velocity of 6.4 m/s, forward, accelerates to a velocity of 10.6 m/s, forward, in 16 s. What is the card acceleratio

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

acceleration = 0.2625 m/s²

Explanation:

acceleration = ( final velocity - initial velocity ) / time

Here the final velocity is 10.6 m/s and initial velocity is 6.4 m/s and time is 16 s.

using the equation:

acceleration = ( 10.6 - 6.4 ) / 16

= 0.2625 m/s²

The windshield of a car has a total length of arm and blade of 9 inches, and rotates back and forth through an angle of 93degre

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7-in wiper blade is 62.49 in²

Explanation:

Given

Length of blade = 9 inches

Angle of rotation = 93°

We're to calculate the area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7-in wiper blade?

We'll solve this by using area of a sector.

Area of a sector = ½r²θ

where θ is in radians.

So, angle of rotation (93°) must first be converted to radians

Converting 93º to radians, we get 31π/60

The area of the region swept out by the wiper blade = (area of the sector where r = 9 and

θ = 31π/60) - (area of the sector where r = (9-7) and θ = 31π/60).

We're making use of 9-7 because that region is outside the boundary of the 7in blade

So Area = ½*9²*31π/60 - ½*2²*31π/60

Area = ½*31π/60(9²-7²)

Area = 31π/120 * (81 - 49)

Area = 31π/120 * 32

Area = 992π/120

Area = 62.49151386765697 in²

Area ≈ 62.49 in²

Hence, the area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7-in wiper blade is 62.49 in²

Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of the charges (q1 = +7.7 µC) is at x1 = +3.1 cm and the other (q2 = -19 µC) is at x2

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) $E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

b) $E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.

Explanation:

Given that

q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm

q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm

We know that electric filed due to a charge given as

$E=K\dfrac{q}{r^2}$

$E_1=K\dfrac{q_1}{r_1^2}$

$E_2=K\dfrac{q_2}{r_2^2}$

Now by putting the va;ues

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.031^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=72.11\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.089^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=21.58\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1-E_2$

$E=50.53\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be negative direction.

As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.

Now

distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm

distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm

$E_1=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{7.7\times 10^{-6}}{0.024^2}\ N/C$

$E_1=120.3\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

$E_2=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{19\times 10^{-6}}{0.034^2}\ N/C$

$E_2=147.92\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The net electric field

$E=E_1+E_2$

$E=268.22\times 10^{6}\ N/C$

The direction will be positive direction.

You see lightning and 30 seconds later you hear thunder. how far away is the thunderstorm? take the speed of sound to be 339 m/s

Jobisdone [24]

Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
Speed = Distance/Time

For light,
3 x 10^8 = d/t
t = d/(3 x 10^8) -1

For sound,
339 = d/(t + 30) -2

Putting value from 1 in 2.
d = 10^4 m(approx)
