Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

 Velocity of a body = Displacement of the body/Time taken

Displacement and velocity are a vector. Both have direction and magnitude.

Displacement is generally distance with direction.

If we divide distance with time taken we will get speed of the airplane. Speed with direction is called velocity. So we need distance between Houston and Dallas, time taken by plane to travel from Houston to Dallas and direction of displacement from Houston to Dallas.

So we need direction.

Option B is the correct answer.

4- by eating food only will you get energy?​
Serga [27]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

All parts of the body (muscles, brain, heart, and liver) need energy to work. This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach.

Find the time t2 that it would take the charge of the capacitor to reach 99.99% of its maximum value given that r=12.0ω and c=50
defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

R = 12 ohms

C = 500μf.

Time t =? When the charge reaches 99.99% of maximum

The charge on a RC circuit is given as

A discharging circuit

Q = Qo•exp(-t/RC)

Where RC is the time constant

τ = RC = 12 × 500 ×10^-6

τ = 0.006 sec

The maximum charge is Qo,

Therefore Q = 99.99% of Qo

Then, Q = 99.99/100 × Qo

Q = 0.9999Qo

So, substituting this into the equation above

Q = Qo•exp(-t/RC)

0.9999Qo = Qo•exp(-t / 0.006)

Divide both side by Qo

0.9999 = exp(-t / 0.006)

Take In of both sodes

In(0.9999) = In(exp(-t / 0.006))

-1 × 10^-4 = -t / 0.006

t = -1 × 10^-4 × - 0.006

t = 6 × 10^-7 second

So it will take 6 × 10^-7 a for charge to reached 99.99% of it's maximum charge

Tom [10]

Answer:

<em>1108.464 N of force</em>

Explanation:

diameter of water hose = 70 cm = 0.7 m

radius = 0.7/2 = 0.35 m

volumetric flow rate Q = 420 L/min

1 L = 0.001 m^3

1 min = 60 s

therefore,

Q = 420 L/min = (420 x 0.001)/60 = 0.007 m^3/s

Area A of fire hose = πr^{2} = 3.142 x 0.35^{2} = 0.38 m^2

<em>From continuity equation, Q = AV</em>

where V1 is the velocity of the water through the pipe, and A1 is the area of the pipe.

Q = A1V1

0.007 = 0.38V1

V1 = 0.007/0.38 = 0.018 m/s.

Nozzle diameter = 0.75 cm = 0.0075 m

radius = 0.00375

Area = πr^{2} = 3.142 x 0.00375^{2} = 4.42 x 10^{-5} m^2

velocity of water through the nozzle will be

V2 = Q/A2 = 0.007 ÷ (4.42 x 10^{-5}) = 158.37 m/s

From

<em>F = ρQ(v2 - v1)</em>

Where,

F = force exerted

p = density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

F = 1000 x 0.007 x (158.37 - 0.018) = <em>1108.464 N of force</em>
