Answer:

4.95 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that the speed of the cars are constant and not accelerating

The relative speed between the two cars will be the difference in their speeds

S_r=60-20\\\Rightarrow S_r=40\ km/h

Converting to m/s

1\ km/h=\frac{1}{3.6}\ m/s

\\\Rightarrow 40\ km/h=40\times \frac{1}{3.6}\ m/s\\ =\frac{100}{9}\ m/s\\ =11.11\ m/s

Time = Distance / Speed

Time=\frac{55}{\frac{100}{9}}=4.95\ seconds

Time it would take the faster car to cross the slower car is 4.95 seconds

AleksAgata [21]
The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out. 
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766 
Adjacent/Hypotenuse 
x/120 = cos40 
Answer: 91.92533. 
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.

G a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of a wire loop is uniform in space but changes with time t in the region of the lo
Luden [163]

Answer:

e = Δφ / Δt     induced emf is proportional to enclosed flux

Also φ  = B * A      flux is proportional to area and enclosed field

If the induced emf e increases with time than the flux and hence the magnetic field is increasing with time  (replace B with G)

Since e = ΔG * A / Δt    if e is linear then G must also be linear and be proportional to the time

How much work does the electric field do in moving a proton from a point with a potential of +125 v to a point where it is -55 v
777dan777 [17]
The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
W= qV_i - qV_f
where q is the charge of the proton, q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, with e being the elementary charge, and V_i = +125 V and V_f = -55 V are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV
and in Joule:
W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J

melamori03 [73]
Potential and kinetic energy are the two types of energy, but they do get separated into subgroups, for which I do not know. Hope that helps.
