The officer is describing the motorcycle's acceleration

That is, he's describing how the motorcycle's velocity changes when compared to the time. That's the formula for calculating the average acceleration of any body.

An object is moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s for 5 seconds. What is
german

initial velocity (u)=0m/s

final velocity (v)=10m/s

time( t)=5s

acceleration (a)=v-u÷t

acceleration (a)=10-0÷5

acceleration (a)=10÷5

acceleration (a)=2

therefore acceleration (a)=2m/s

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Take the regular compass and hold it so the case is vertical. Now use it to investigate the direction of the coil’s magnetic field at locations other than the central axis.

What happens as you move away from the center axis toward the coil? The direction of the magnetic compass needle will move in an opposite direction since the direction of the induced voltage is reversed.

What happens above the coil?

the needle on the magnetic compass will be deflected. Since compasses work by pointing along magnetic field lines

Outside the coil? The magnetic compass needle will experience no deflection. Since there is no induced voltage or current.

Below the coil?

The needle will move in an opposite direction.

What is approximate resistance between P and Q?<br> a) 0.5<br> b)0.8<br> c)2.0<br> d)2.2<br> e)3.6
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

0.5 Ohms

Explanation:

We note that the node Q is also between the resistors of 1ohm and 2ohms.

We note that the node P is also between the resistors of 2ohms and 3ohms.

Thus, all these resistors are in parallel, beween nodes P and Q

1/Re=1/R1+1/R2+1/R3

1/Re=1/1+1/2+1/3=(6+3+2)/6=11/6 [ohm^(-1)]

Re=6/11=0.54ohms

Rounding to the tenth: Re=0.5 ohms

A whistle of frequency 564 Hz moves in a circle of radius 71.2 cm at an angular speed of 17.1 rad/s. What are (a) the lowest and
trapecia [35]

Answer:

a) f'=544.66 \textup{Hz}

b) f'=584.75 \textup{Hz}

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the whistle, f = 564 Hz

Radius of the circle, r = 71.2 cm = 0.712 m

Angular speed, ω = 17.1 rad/s

speed of source, v_s = rω = 0.712 × 17.1 = 12.1752 m/s

speed of sound, v = 343 m/s

Now, applying the Doppler's effect formula, we have

f'=f\frac{v\pm v_d}{v\pm v_s}

where,

v_d = relative speed of the detector with respect to medium = 0

a) for lowest frequency, we have the formula as:

f'=f\frac{v}{v+v_s}

on substituting the values, we get

f'=564\times\frac{343}{343+12.1752}

or

f'=544.66 \textup{Hz}

b) for maximum frequency, we have the formula as:

f'=f\frac{v}{v-v_s}

on substituting the values, we get

f'=564\times\frac{343}{343-12.1752}

or

f'=584.75 \textup{Hz}
