terry can ride 30 miles in 2 hrs riding speed is reduced by 3 miles per hours how far can he ride in 1.7 hours

A runner is moving at a constant speed of 8.00 m/s around a circular track. If the distance from the runner to the center of the

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: Last option

2.27 m/s2

Explanation:

As the runner is running at a constant speed then the only acceleration present in the movement is the centripetal acceleration.

If we call a_c to the centripetal acceleration then, by definition

$a_c =w^2r = \frac{v^2}{r}$

in this case we know the speed of the runner

$v =8.00\ m/s$

The radius "r" will be the distance from the runner to the center of the track

$r = 28.2\ m$

$a_c = \frac{8^2}{28.2}\ m/s^2$

$a_c = 2.27\ m/s^2$

The answer is the last option

How much work is done (by a battery, generator, or some other source of potential difference) in moving Avogadro's number of ele

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

W = 1.5 x 10⁶ J = 1.5 MJ

Explanation:

First, we calculate the potential difference between the given 2 points. So, we have:

V₁ = Electric Potential at Initial Position = 6.7 V

V₂ = Electric Potential at Final Position = - 8.9 V

Therefore,

ΔV = Potential Difference = V₂ - V₁ = -8.9 V - 6.7 V = - 15.6 V

Since, we use magnitude in calculation only. Therefore,

ΔV = 15.6 V

Now, we calculate total charge:

Total Charge = q = (No. of Electrons)(Charge on 1 Electron)

where,

No. of Electrons = Avagadro's No. = 6.022 x 10²³

Charge on 1 electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Therefore,

q = (6.022 x 10²³)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

q = 96352 C

Now, from the definition of potential difference, we know that it is equal to the worked done on a unit charge moving it between the two points of different potentials:

ΔV = W/q

W = (ΔV )(q)

where,

W = work done = ?

W = (15.6 V)(96352 C)

In which case would electrical potential energy be built up and stored in the electric field? a) A positive charge is moved towa

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

Although, it is common knowledge that in an electric field, unlike charges attract and like charges repel. However, to build up an electric potential, a positive charge is brought close to another positive charge - this causes work done to be changed to electric potential energy and stored in the electric field.

It should however be noted that when a negative charge is moved away from a positive charge, the negative charge gains electric potential energy.

An Argon laser (λ = 5.0×102nm) shines down a silica glass fiber-optic cable with index of refraction 1.46. What is the speed of

Yanka [14]

Answer:

The speed of the laser light in the cable, $c_f=2.1\times 10^8\ m/s$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength of Argon laser, $\lambda=5\times 10^2\ nm=5\times 10^{-7}\ m$

Refractive index, n = 1.46

Let $c_f$ is the speed of the laser light in the cable. The speed of light in a medium is given by :

$c_f=\dfrac{c}{n}$

$c_f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{1.46}$

$c_f=2.05\times 10^8\ m/s$

or

$c_f=2.1\times 10^8\ m/s$

So, the speed of the laser light is $2.1\times 10^8\ m/s$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Rounded to the nearest whole number, how many neutrons, on average, are in an atom of osmium?

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: 114

Explanation:

The mass number of an element gives the sum of the protons and the neutrons inside the nucleus of one atom of that element, while the atomic number of an element gives the number of protons inside one atom of that element.

We can infer the number of neutrons inside one atom of Osmium from its mass number and atomic number.

The atomic number of osmium is 76, so each atom of osmium has 76 protons

The (average) mass number of osmium is 190, so each atom of osmium has (on average) 190 protons+neutrons

So, in order to find the average number of neutrons, we can subtract the atomic number from the mass number:

$N=A-Z=190-76=114$
