Answer:

a) $a= 1.6 m/s^2$

b)V= 24 m/s

c)d=240 m

Explanation:

Given that

u = 16 m/s

v= 32 m/s

t= 10 s

The average acceleration = a

We know v = u +at

32 = 16 + a x 10

$a=\dfrac{32-16}{10}\ m/s^2$

$a= 1.6 m/s^2$

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

d=displacement

$d=16\times 10+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.6\times 10^2$

d=240 m

The average velocity

$V=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$V=\dfrac{240}{10}\ m/s$

V= 24 m/s

a) $a= 1.6 m/s^2$

b)V= 24 m/s

c)d=240 m

Current Flow and Ohm's Law

Ohm's law is the most important, basic law of electricity. It defines the relationship between the three fundamental electrical quantities: current, voltage, and resistance. When a voltage is applied to a circuit containing only resistive elements (i.e. no coils), current flows according to Ohm's Law, which is shown below.

I = V / R

Where:

I =

Electrical Current (Amperes)

V =

Voltage (Voltage)

R =

Resistance (Ohms)

Ohm's law states that the electrical current (I) flowing in an circuit is proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance (R). Therefore, if the voltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change. Similarly, increasing the resistance of the circuit will lower the current flow if the voltage is not changed. The formula can be reorganized so that the relationship can easily be seen for all of the three variables.

The Java applet below allows the user to vary each of these three parameters in Ohm's Law and see the effect on the other two parameters. Values may be input into the dialog boxes, or the resistance and voltage may also be varied by moving the arrows in the applet. Current and voltage are shown as they would be displayed on an oscilloscope with the X-axis being time and the Y-axis being the amplitude of the current or voltage. Ohm's Law is valid for both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC). Note that in AC circuits consisting of purely resistive elements, the current and voltage are always in phase with each other.

Exercise: Use the interactive applet below to investigate the relationship of the variables in Ohm's law. Vary the voltage in the circuit by clicking and dragging the head of the arrow, which is marked with the V. The resistance in the circuit can be increased by dragging the arrow head under the variable resister, which is marked R. Please note that the vertical scale of the oscilloscope screen automatically adjusts to reflect the value of the current.

See what happens to the voltage and current as the resistance in the circuit is increased. What happens if there is not enough resistance in a circuit? If the resistance is increased, what must happen in order to maintain the same level of current flow?

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

A) The elastic potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed 0.10 m is 0.25 J.

B) The maximum speed of the plastic sphere will be 2.2 m/s

Explanation:

Hi there!

I´ve found the complete problem on the web:

A toy launcher that is used to launch small plastic spheres horizontally contains a spring with a spring constant of 50. newtons per meter. The spring is compressed a distance of 0.10 meter when the launcher is ready to launch a plastic sphere.

A) Determine the elastic potential energy stored in the spring when the launcher is ready to launch a plastic sphere.

B) The spring is released and a 0.10-kilogram plastic sphere is fired from the launcher. Calculate the maximum speed with which the plastic sphere will be launched. [Neglect friction.] [Show all work, including the equation and substitution with units.]

A) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated as follows:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = compressing distance

EPE = 1/2 · 50 N/m · (0.10 m)²

EPE = 0.25 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed 0.10 m is 0.25 J.

B) Since there is no friction, all the stored potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released. The equation of kinetic energy (KE) is the following:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the sphere.

v = velocity

The kinetic energy of the sphere will be equal to the initial elastic potential energy:

KE = EPE = 1/2 · m · v²

0.25 J = 1/2 · 0.10 kg · v²

2 · 0.25 J / 0.10 kg = v²

v = 2.2 m/s

The maximum speed of the plastic sphere will be 2.2 m/s

Describe how the ocean influences climate by storing heat and water? Give one example to justify your answer.

just olya [345]

The sun light that received by the water in the ocean will increase the average temperature of the water and make it warmer.
With the help of wind and current, the warm water will spread out to another region, and increasing the average temperature in that region and affecting its overall climate.
Example The temperature rise in Valdivia, Chile and in Beijing, China after receiving warm water from arctic.

a chuck wagon with an initial velocity of 4 m/s and a mass of 35 kg gets a push with 350 joules of force. what is the wagon's fi

Kitty [74]

Answer:

the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the wagon, u = 4 m/s

mass of the wagon, m = 35 kg

energy applied to the wagon, E = 350 J

The final velocity of the wagon is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

$m(v^2-u^2) = 2E\\\\v^2-u^2 = \frac{2E}{m} \\\\v^2 = \frac{2E}{m} + u^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} + u^2} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2(350)}{35} + (4)^2}\\\\v = 6 \ m/s$

Therefore, the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
