Answer:

a  = 0.13m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of horse trailer  = 150kg

Distance covered  = 250miles

Force applied on trailer  = 20N

Unknown:

Acceleration of trailer = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law of motion,"the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force on it and inversely proportional to the mass" .

          Mathematically;

                                    F  = m x a

 where f is the force

             m is the mass

               a is the acceleration

Input the parameters and solve;

                  20  = 150 x a

                      a  = 0.13m/s²

A plane electromagnetic wave traveling in the positive direction of an x axis in vacuum has components Ex = Ey = 0 and Ez = (4.3
Ivan

Answer:

B_{m}=1.4333*10^{-8}T

Explanation:

Given data

Ex = Ey = 0

Ez=(4.3V/m)cos(π×10¹⁵s⁻¹)(t-x/c)

To find

The amplitude of the magnetic field component

Solution

The electric field is given by:

Ez=(4.3V/m)cos(π×10¹⁵s⁻¹)(t-x/c)

Where Em=4.3 V/m

The magnitude of magnetic field is given by:

B_{m}=\frac{E_{m}}{c}

Where Em is amplitude of electric field and c is speed of light.

Substitute the given values

So

B_{m}=\frac{4.3V/m}{3.0*10^{8}m/s }\\B_{m}=1.4333*10^{-8}T

A 3.91 kg cart is moving at 5.7 m/s when it collides with a 4 kg cart which was at rest. They collide and stick together.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

<em>The velocity after the collision is 2.82 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>

It states the total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is  

P=mv.  

If we have a system of two bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

Or, equivalently:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v'

The common velocity after this situation is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

There is an m1=3.91 kg car moving at v1=5.7 m/s that collides with an m2=4 kg cart that was at rest v2=0.

After the collision, both cars stick together. Let's compute the common speed after that:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{3.91*5.7+4*0}{3.91+4}

\displaystyle v'=\frac{22.287}{7.91}

\boxed{v' = 2.82\ m/s}

The velocity after the collision is 2.82 m/s

If the caffeine concentration in a particular brand of soda is 2.97 mg/oz, 2.97 mg/oz, drinking how many cans of soda would be l
Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Concentration of caffeine = 2.97 mg/oz

     Number of oz in a can = 12 oz

Therefore, the concentration of caffeine in one can is calculated as follows.

                 = (12 \times 2.97) mg

                 = 35.64 mg

                 = 35.64 \times 10^{-3} g

Since, it is given that lethal dose is 10.0 g. Hence, number of cans are calculated as follows.

     No. of cans = \frac{\text{Lethal dose}}{\text{concentration in one can}}

                         = \frac{10 g}{35.64 \times 10^{-3} g}

                         = 280.58

                         = 281 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that 281 cans of soda would be lethal.

As there is no postive or negative assigned so
Initial velocity= -2.8759
Displacement= 0.5at^2+ut
= 0.5(-1.77)(3.33)^2+(-2.8759)(3.33)=-19.4m
