UkoKoshka [18]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Hydrogen used in fuel cells has the energy to weight ratio ten times greater than lithium-ion batteries. Consequently, it offers much greater range while being lighter and occupying smaller volumes. It can also be recharged in a few minutes, similarly to gasoline vehicles.

xxMikexx [17]

From the front door to his current position, Aaron's Distance is 4m. and his Displacement is 4m.

Distance is a measure of how far apart two objects or locations are using numbers. The distance can refer to a physical length in physics or to an estimate based on other factors in common usage. Sometimes, the symbol |AB| is used to represent the distance between two points.

A displacement is a vector in geometry and mechanics that have a length equal to the shortest distance between a point P's initial and final positions.

Given,

Length of path  = 4m

Distance  =?

Displacement  =?

Distance is the length of the path and it has magnitude but no direction. The distance covered is 4m Displacement is the length of the path and it has magnitude and direction. Displacement is 4m towards the mailbox.

Find the period of the leg of a man who is 1.83 m in height with a mass of 67 kg. The moment of inertia of a cylinder rotating a
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

T = 1.108\,s

Explanation:

The period of a physical pendulum is:

T = \sqrt{\frac{I_{O}}{m\cdot g \cdot L} }

T=2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}\cdot m \cdot L^{2} }{m\cdot g\cdot L} }

T=2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{L }{3\cdot g} }

The length of the leg is approximately the height of the person:

L = 0.915\,m

The period is:

T = 2\cdot \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.915\,m}{3\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} }

T = 1.108\,s

A ball with a mass of 170 g which contains 3.80×108 excess electrons is dropped into a vertical shaft with a height of 145 m . A
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

A. F=6.65*10^{-10}N

B. south - north

Explanation:

A) We use the Lorentz force

F = qv X B

|F| = qvB

to calculate the magnitude of the force we need the speed of the of the ball.

v_{f}^{2}=v_{0}^{2}+2gy\\v_{f}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})(145m)}=53.31\frac{m}{s}

and by replacing in the formula for the magnitude of the force we have (taking into account the excess of electrons)

F=(3.8*10^{8})(1.602*10^{-19}C)(53.31\frac{m}{s})(0.205T)=6.65*10^{-10}N

B)

b.  south - north (by the rigth hand rule)

I hope this is usefull for you

If a circuit has a power of 50 W with a current of 4.5 A, what is the resistance in the circuit?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

{ \rm{power, \: p = current \times p.d}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (current \times resistance)}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (4.5 \times r)}} \\ { \rm{resistance =  \frac{50}{ {4.5}^{2} } }} \\  \\ { \rm{resistance = 2.5 \:  ohms}}
