Carl is eating lunch at his favorite cafe when his friend Isaac calls and says he wants to meet him. Isaac is calling from a cit

y 175 miles away, and wants to meet Carl somewhere between the two locations. Isaac says he will start driving right away, but Carl needs 35.0 min to finish his lunch before he can begin driving. Isaac plans to drive at 65.0 mph , and Carl plans to drive at 50.0 mph . Ignore acceleration and assume the highway forms a straight line. How long will Isaac be driving before he meets Carl?

Answer:

106.52 minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Initial distance between Carl and Isaac = 175 miles

speed of Isaac = 65 mph

Speed of Carl = 50 mph

Now, the Carl starts after 35 minutes, but the Isaac has already started so the distance covered by Isaac in 35 minutes will be

= \frac{35}{60}\times65

= 37.91 miles

Therefore,

the distance left between Isaac and Carl = 175 - 37.91 = 137.09 miles

Since Isaac and Carl are moving towards each other,

therefore the relative speed between the both = 65 + 50 = 115 mph

Hence, the time taken to meet = \frac{137.09}{115}

or

The time taken to meet = 1.192 hours

or

The time taken = 1.192 × 60 = 71.52 minutes

Therefore the total time Isaac have been travelling = 71.52 + 35

= 106.52 minutes

Rus_ich [418]
<span>1. Kuiper Belt object is made of frozen is made of frozen gas, ice, and dust that orbits in the outermost reaches of the solar system. Kuiper belt is a region which is filled with icy gaz bodies. Its structure is almost the same as the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Pluto, Makemake, Haumea are the officially recognized planets which are located in this region. 2. In my opinion, the most suitable option is: 3) The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust. According to theory of solar system formation, the solar system appeared after a supernova (star explosion). A cloud of gas and dust was collapsed, and it caused a formation of a solar nebula.

A coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged con
Tcecarenko [31]

Complete question:

A 50 m length of coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged conductor (with charge −8.5 µC and radius 9.249 mm).

Required:

What is the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors? The Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 10^9 N.m^2 . Assume the region between the conductors is air, and neglect end effects. Answer in units of V/m.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m

Explanation:

Given;

charge of the coaxial capable, Q = 8.5 µC = 8.5  x 10⁻⁶ C

length of the conductor, L = 50 m

inner radius, r₁ = 1.304 mm

outer radius, r₂ = 9.249 mm

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is given by;

E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_o r} = \frac{Q}{2\pi \epsilon_o r L}

Where;

λ is linear charge density or charge per unit length

r is the distance halfway between the two cylindrical conductors

r = r_1 + \frac{1}{2}(r_2-r_1) \\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \  \frac{1}{2}(9.249 \ mm-1.304 \ mm)\\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \ 3.9725 \ mm\\\\r = 5.2765 \ mm

The magnitude of the electric field is now given as;

E = \frac{8.5*10^{-6}}{2\pi(8.85*10^{-12})(5.2765*10^{-3})(50)} \\\\E = 5.793*10^5 \ V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m
