Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change) .

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed)
                            =        (2 m/a)  -  (8 m/a)  =  -6 m/a .

Time for the change = (end time) - (start time)
                                 =   (13 sec)  -  (10 sec)  =  3 sec .

Magnitude of acceleration =  (-6 m/a) / (3 sec)

                                          =       -2 m/a per second .
 
(That's the best I can do with the ambiguous units.
What unit of speed is 'm/a' ?  Is that "miles per afternoon" ?)

crowbar of 5 metre is used to lift an object of 800 metre if the effort arm is 200cm calculate the force applied​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

 F = 5226.6 N

Explanation:

To solve a lever, the rotational equilibrium relation must be used.

We place the reference system on the fulcrum (pivot point) and assume that the positive direction is counterclockwise

         F d₁ = W d₂

where F is the applied force, W is the weight to be lifted, d₁ and d₂ are the distances from the fulcrum.

In this case the length of the lever is L = 5m, t the distance desired by the fulcrum from the weight to be lifted is

d₂ = 200 cm = 2 m

therefore the distance to the applied force is

          d₁ = L -d₂

         d₁ = 5 -2

         d₁= 3m

we clear from the equation

          F = W d₂ / d₁

          W = m g

          F = m g d₂ / d₁

we calculate

      F = 800 9.8 2/3

      F = 5226.6 N

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.

A fixed 11.2-cm-diameter wire coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field 0.53 T pointing up. In 0.10 s , the field is changed to
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the wire, d = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.53 T

final magnetic field, B₂ = 0.24 T

time of change in magnetic field, t = 0.1 s

The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;

E = A(dB)/dt

where;

A is area of the coil = πr²

r is the radius of the wire coil = 0.112m / 2 = 0.056 m

A = π(0.056)²

A = 0.00985 m²

E = -0.00985(B₂-B₁)/t

E = 0.00985(B₁-B₂)/t

E = 0.00985(0.53 - 0.24)/0.1

E = 0.00985 (0.29)/ 0.1

E = 0.0286 V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V
