Answer:

Mary's average speed is 0.42 meters/second.

Explanation:

Mary's total travel was 250 meters and the elapsed time was 10 minutes, equivalent to 600 seconds.

d = displacement = 80 meters + 125 meters + 45 meters = 250 meters

t = time = 10 minutes . 60 seconds/minute = 600 seconds

We can obtain now the average speed:

s = average speed = displacement / time = 250 meters / 600 seconds ≅ 0.4167 ≅ 0.42

Students perform a set of experiments by placing a block of mass m against a spring, compressing the spring a distance x along a

Verizon [17]

Increasing the angle of inclination of the plane decreases the velocity of the block as it leaves the spring.

The statement that indicates how the relationship between v and x changes is; As x increases, v increases, but the relationship is no longer linear and the values of v will be less for the same value of x.

Reasons:

The energy given to the block by the spring = $\mathbf{0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2}$

According to the principle of conservation of energy, we have;

On a flat plane, energy given to the block = $0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2$ = kinetic energy of

block = $0.5 \cdot m \cdot v^2$

Therefore;

0.5·k·x² = 0.5·m·v²

Which gives;

x² ∝ v²

x ∝ v

On a plane inclined at an angle θ, we have;

The energy of the spring = $\mathbf{0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2}$

The force of the weight of the block on the string, $F = m \cdot g \cdot sin(\theta)$

The energy given to the block = $0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2 - m \cdot g \cdot sin(\theta)$ = The kinetic energy of block as it leaves the spring = $\mathbf{0.5 \cdot m \cdot v^2}$

Which gives;

$0.5 \cdot k \cdot x^2 - m \cdot g \cdot sin(\theta) = 0.5 \cdot m \cdot v^2$

Which is of the form;

a·x² - b = c·v²

a·x² + c·v² = b

Where;

a, b, and c are constants

The graph of the equation a·x² + c·v² = b is an ellipse

Therefore;

As x increases, v increases, however, the value of v obtained will be lesser than the same value of x as when the block is on a flat plane.

Please find attached a drawing related to the question obtained from a similar question online

The possible question options are;

As x increases, v increases, but the relationship is no longer linear and the values of v will be less for the same value of x

The relationship is no longer linear and v will be more for the same value of x

The relationship is still linear, with lesser value of v

The relationship is still linear, with higher value of v

The relationship is still linear, but vary inversely, such that as x increases, v decreases

For a certain RLC circuit the maximum generator EMF is 125 V and the maximum current is 3.20 A. If le a) the impedance of the ci

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Part (i)

Z = 39.06 ohm

Part (ii)

R = 21.7 ohm

Explanation:

a) here we know that

maximum value of EMF = 125 V

maximum value of current = 3.20 A

now by ohm's law we can find the impedence as

$z = \frac{V_o}{i_o}$

now we will have

$z = \frac{125}{3.20} = 39.06 ohm$

Part b)

Now we also know that

$\frac{R}{z} = cos\theta$

$\theta = 0.982 rad = 56.3 degree$

now we have

$\frac{R}{39.06} = cos56.3$

$R = 21.7 ohm$

The state of matter is an example of a physical property. Why is the state of matter considered aphysical property, even though

lora16 [44]

The three states of matter are the three distinct physical forms that matter can take in most environments: solid, liquid, and gas. In extreme environments, other states may be present, such as plasma, Bose-Einstein condensates, and neutron stars. Further states, such as quark-gluon plasmas, are also believed to be possible. Much of the atomic matter of the universe is hot plasma in the form of rarefied interstellar medium and dense stars.

The stiffness of a particular spring is 42 N/m. One end of the spring is attached to a wall. A force of 2 N is required to hold

Liula [17]

Answer:

$L_{o}=0.1224m$

Explanation:

Given data

Force F=2 N

Length L=17 cm = 0.17 m

Spring Constant k=42 N/m

To find

Relaxed length of the spring

Solution

From Hooke's Law we know that

$F_{spring}=k_{s}|s|\\F_{spring}=k_{s}(L-L_{o})\\ 2N=(42N/m)(0.17m-L_{o})\\2=7.14-42L_{o}\\-42L_{o}=2-7.14\\42L_{o}=5.14\\L_{o}=(5.14/42)\\L_{o}=0.1224m$
