Answer:

$a=3.34\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

It refers to the motion of objects in which velocity is not constant over time. If the change of the velocity occurs at the same rate, then we say it's uniformly accelerated. Being $v_o$ = initial speed, $v_f$ = final speed, a= constant acceleration, x= distance traveled

Then, the scalar relation between them is

$v_f^2=v_o^2+2ax$

The aircraft needs to reach a liftoff speed of 53 m/s from rest (assumed) having only 420 meters to do so. We can compute the acceleration by solving for a

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f^2-v_0^2}{2x}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{53^2-0^2}{2(420)}$

$\boxed{a=3.34\ m/s^2}$

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 222 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. if the current in each of the t

earnstyle [38]

1) Magnitude of the force:

The magnetic field generated by a current-carrying wire is
$B= \frac{\mu_0I}{2 \pi r}$
where
$\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance at which the field is calculated

Using I=135 A, the current flowing in each wire, we can calculate the magnetic field generated by each wire at distance
$r=40.0 cm=0.40 m$ ,
which is the distance at which the other wire is located:
$B= \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}= \frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7} N/A^2)(135 A) }{2 \pi (0.40 m)}=6.75 \cdot 10^{-5} T$

Then we can calculate the magnitude of the force exerted on each wire by this magnetic field, which is given by:
$F=ILB=(135 A)(222 m)(6.75 \cdot 10^{-5}T)=2.03 N$

2) direction of the force:
The two currents run in opposite direction: this means that the force between them is repulsive. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. Let's apply it to one of the two wires, assuming they are in the horizontal plane, and assuming that the current in the wire on the right is directed northwards:
- the magnetic field produced by the wire on the left at the location of the wire on the right is directed upward (the thumb of the right hand is directed as the current, due south, and the other fingers give the direction of the magnetic field, upward)

Now let's apply the right-hand rule to the wire on the right:
- index finger: current --> northward
- middle finger: magnetic field --> upward
- thumb: force --> due east --> so the force is repulsive

A similar procedure can be used on the wire on the left, finding that the force exerted on it is directed westwards, so the force between the two wires is repulsive.

Describe three pieces of evidence that support the Big Bang theory

lisov135 [29]

Explanation :

According to astronomers, the whole universe is started with a giant explosion called as Big Bang. Big Bang theory shows that the universe is extended from high density state.

There are some evidence for big bang as :

(1) There are some red shifts of different galaxies which means that the universe is expanding.

(2) Due to the expanding of universe, some of the new elements are created like hydrogen, deuterium etc.

(3) Microwaves are detected by orbiting detectors.

All this parameters shows that big bang theory was correct.

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles = 40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles = 64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = $\frac{1}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{30}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{1}{2}hours$

Now

Average velocity = $\frac{Speed}{time}$

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = $\frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}$

Average velocity = $64.3738 \times 2$

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting velocity to m/s

$128.74 \times \frac{5}{18}$

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy K= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Substituting the values,

K= $\frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2$

K= $\frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)$

K= $\frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}$

K= $\frac{1917093.75}{2}$

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

$S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Substituting the known values,

$s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2$

$s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)$

$s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}$ -------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

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

Substituting the values

$a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}$

$a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}$

a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$ ----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

$s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}$

$s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}$

$s=536.25-267.75$

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)
