What is the rate at which an object moves but doesn't include direction?

Great question !

The rate at which an object covers distance, without worrying
about the direction it's moving, is the object's SPEED .

When the direction is also given, then you have the object's VELOCITY.


This question is important.  It gives us a chance to point out that
"velocity" is not just a fancy word for speed that you use when you
want to sound smart.  There's actually an important difference between
'speed' and 'velocity'.

When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis, all the points in the body have the same A. centripetal acceleration B. tangential
Leto [7]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is same at all the points in the body.

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis, all the points in the body have the same,

For finding which quantity is same we use pure rotational concept,

 v = \omega r

Where \omega = angular frequency, r = radius of rigid body

When a rigid body rotates about a fixed axis angular velocity of all the points in the body are same.

But the tangential speed, tangential acceleration, linear displacement, and centripetal acceleration depend on the position of the points and hence they are not the same.

Therefore, the angular acceleration is same at all the points in the body.

A 15.0-Ω resistor and a coil are connected in series with a 6.30-V battery with negligible internal resistance and a closed swit
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.04328 H

0.00288 seconds

0.01326 seconds

Explanation:

V = Voltage = 6.3 V

R = Resistance = 15 Ω

L = Inductance

I = Decayed current = 0.21 A

t = Time to decay = 2 ms

Maximum Current is given by

I_0=\frac{V}{R}\\\Rightarrow I_0=\frac{6.3}{15}\\\Rightarrow I_0=0.42\ A

Current in the circuit is given by

I=I_0exp\frac{-Rt}{L}\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{I_0}{I}=\frac{Rt}{L}\\\Rightarrow L=\frac{Rt}{ln\frac{I_0}{I}}\\\Rightarrow L=\frac{15\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{ln\frac{0.42}{0.21}}\\\Rightarrow L=0.04328\ H

The inductance is 0.04328 H

Time constant is given by

\tau=\frac{L}{R}\\\Rightarrow \tau=\frac{0.04328}{15}\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.00288\ s

Time constant is 0.00288 seconds

Time required is given by

t=\tau ln\frac{I_0}{I}\\\Rightarrow t=0.00288\times ln\frac{I_0}{0.01I_0}\\\Rightarrow t=0.01326\ s

The time to reach 1% of its original value is 0.01326 seconds

Please hurry please
Ghella [55]

Answer:

0.765m

Explanation:

gravitational potential energy GPE = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height

Given

GPE = 30Joules

Mass m = 4kg

acceleration = 9.8m/s²

Required

Height h

From the formula

h = GPE/mg

h = 30/4(9.8)

h = 30/39.2

h = 0.765m\

Hence the height of the counter is 0.765m
