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.

6. The momentum of a 30.0 g bird with a speed of 12 m.s-1 is 0.36 kg.m.s-1. What will be its momentum 12s later if a constant .0
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial momentum = .36 kg.m.s⁻¹

negative impulse = force x time = .02 x 12 = .24 kg.m.s⁻¹

final momentum - initial momentum = impulse

final momentum = initial momentum + impulse

= .36 - .24

= .12 kg.m.s⁻¹

Vector vector b has x, y, and z components of 4.00, 4.00, and 2.00 units, respectively. calculate the magnitude of vector
Sav [38]
Good morning.

We see that \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}} = \mathsf{(4.00, \ 4.00, \ 2.00)}

The magnitude(norm, to be precise) can be calculated the following way:

\star \ \boxed{\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}=(x, y,z)\Rightarrow ||\overset{\to}{a}|| = \sqrt{x^2+y^2+z^2}}}


Now the calculus is trivial:

\mathsf{\|\overset{\to}{b} \| =\sqrt{4^2+4^2+2^2} =\sqrt{16+16+4}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\|\overset{\to}{b}\|=\sqrt{36}}\\ \\ \boxed{\mathsf{\|\overset{\to}{b}\| = 6.00 \ u}}

If the magnitude of the electric field in air exceeds roughly 3 ✕ 106 n/c, the air breaks down and a spark forms. for a two-di
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: 39.8 μC

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field generated by a capacitor is given by:

E = \frac{V}{d}

d is the distance between the plates.

For a capacitor, charge Q = CV where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage.

C =\frac{\epsilon_o A }{d}

where A is the area of the plate and ε₀ is the absolute permittivity.

substituting, we get

E = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_o A}

It is given that the magnitude of the electric field that can exist in the capacitor before air breaks down is, E = 3 × 10⁶ N/C.

radius of the plates of the capacitor, r = 69 cm = 0.69 m

Area of the plates, A = πr² = 1.5 m²

Thus, the maximum charge that can be placed on disks without a spark is:

Q = E×ε₀×A

⇒ Q = 3 × 10⁶ N/C × 8.85 × 10⁻¹² F/m × 1.5 m² = 39.8 × 10⁻⁶ C = 39.8 μC.

The c-cl bond dissociation energy in cf3cl is 339 kj/mol. What is the maximum wavelength of photons that can rupture this bond?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

3.53*10^{-7} m

Explanation:

Photon that can rupture the bonds are those with the energy of the bond dissociation energy. If we want to know the energy for each molecule we have to take into account that:

1mol=6.022*10^{23}molecule

Hence, we have

E_d=339\frac{10^{3}J}{mol}*\frac{1mol}{6-022*10^{23}molecules}=5.62*10^{-19}J/molecule

but the energy is also:

E_d=h\nu =\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\frac{hc}{E_d}

where h is the Planck's constant and c is the speed of ligth. By replacing we obtain:

\lambda=\frac{(6.62*10^{-34}Js)(3*10^{8}m/s)}{5.62*10^{-19}J}=3.53*10^{-7}m

hope this helps!
