Answer:

Distance = 30m

Displacement = 6m W

Explanation:

Given the following:

Movement 1 = 18m W

Movement 2 = 12m E

Diatance is a scalar quantity with only magnitude and no direction. That is, in Calculating the distance moved by the locomotive, the direction of travel or movement of the object is not considered. It only measures the total amount of movement made during the Time of motion.

Therefore, total distance traveled equals :

Movement 1 + movement 2

18m + 12m = 30m

B) Displacement also measures the movement made by an object. However, Displacement is a vector quantity and therefore, considers both magnitude and direction of travel of the object. Therefore, it measures the overall change in position of the object from its starting position.

Therefore, Displacement of the locomotive equals:

18m W - 12m E = 6m E

A solenoid used to produce magnetic fields for research purposes is 2.1 m long, with an inner radius of 28 cm and 1000 turns of
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

I = 2172.46 A

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of a solenoid, l = 2.1 m

The inner radius of the solenoid, r = 28 cm = 0.28 m

The number of turns in the wire, N = 1000

The magnetic field in the solenoid, B = 1.3 T

We need to find the current carried by it. We know that, the magnetic field in a solenoid is given by :

B=\mu_o nI\\\\or\\\\B=\mu_o \dfrac{N}{L}I\\\\I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_o N}

Put all the values,

I=\dfrac{1.3\times 2.1}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 1000}\\\\I=2172.46\ A

So, it carry current of 2172.46 A.

A car mass of 1.2 x 10 kilograms starts from rest and attains a speed of 20 meters/seconds in 5 seconds. What net force acted on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Net force on the car=F=4.8 x 10³ N

Explanation:

mass of car= 1.2 x 10³ Kg

initial velocity= Vi=0

Final velocity= Vf= 20 m/s

time = t= 5 s

Using kinematic equation,

Vf= Vi + at

20= 0 + a (5)

5 a=20

a= 20/5

a= 4 m/s²

Now force is given by F = ma

F= 1.2 x 10³ (4)

F=4.8 x 10³ N
