A speeding car traveling at 24.8 m/s passes a police car that is at rest. The police car begins its pursuit at the instant the s

peeding car passes and maintains a constant acceleration. (a) What acceleration is required for the police car to overtake the speeding car in 897 m?

Answer:

the acceleration required is 1.37m/s^2

Explanation:

The car is having a constant velocity movement, so if we calculate the time to reach 897m, we can use it to find the acceleration the policeman need to apply to reach the car.

x=v*t\\t=\frac{x}{v}\\t=\frac{897m}{24.8m/s}\\t=36.17s

the policeman is traveling with a constant acceleration starting from rest so:

x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\a=\frac{2*x}{t^2}\\\\a=1.37 m/s2

Oscilloscopes have parallel metal plates inside them to deflect the electron beam. These plates are called the deflecting plates
alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.6 pF

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor in air is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

In this problem we have:

- Separation between the plates: d = 5.00 mm = 0.005 m

- Area of the plates: A = 3.00 cm \cdot 3.00 cm = 9.00 cm^2 = 9\cdot 10^{-4}m^2

Therefore, the capacitance is

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(9\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{0.005 m}=1.6\cdot 10^{-12} F=1.6 pF

A hot iron ball of mass 200 g is cooled to a temperature of 22°C from 100°C. How much heat was
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Q= -6900 J

Explanation:

use the formula Q=mC(T_2 - T_1) and sub in givens

Q=mC(T_2 - T_1)

Q= (200 g)(0.444 J/g°C)(22-100)

Q= -6900 J

The negative sign means heat is lost, which agrees with the decrease in temperature
