<span>Velocity is a vector quantity, that's formally defined as the rate of change of position or displacement with time. When stating any vector like the velocity of an object, we talk about direction, as well as magnitude. That's why speed and velocity are different things. Speed is a scalar (a pure number, specified by magnitude, without direction), while velocity is a vector. To put it simply, speed is the magnitude of the velocity. When talking about velocity, we specify it according to some fixed frame of reference and its unit is meters/second. It can be measured in two ways. One is in the form of average velocity, while the other is instantaneous velocity. The formula for the former is as follows.</span>

The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line is v(t) = ate−6t, where the speed v is measured in meters p
beks73 [17]

Answer:

v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:

v(t)=ate^{-6t}   (1)

To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:

\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))]  (2)

where you have use the derivative of a product.

Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:

a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}

For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.

Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):

v_{max}=a(\frac{1}{6})e^{-6(\frac{1}{6})}=\frac{e^{-1}}{6}a

hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a

In a certain time interval, natural gas with energy content of 19000 J was piped into a house during a winter day. In the same t
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .

Explanation:

The equation form of thermodynamics is,

ΔQ=ΔU+W

Here, ΔQ is the heat transferred, ΔU is the change in internal energy, and W is the work done.

Substitute 0 J for W and 0 J for ΔU

ΔQ = 0J+0J

ΔQ = 0J

The change in internal energy is equal to zero because the temperature changes of the house didn’t change. The work done is zero because the volume did not change

The heat transfer is,

ΔQ=Q  (in ) −Q (out )

Substitute 19000 J + 2000 J for Q(in)  and 0 J for Q(out)

ΔQ=(19000J+2000J)−(0J)

=21,000J

​Thus, the amount of heat transfer is 21,000J .

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value of \dfrac{dU}{dM} is 6\times10^{-29}\ J/unit.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number N=10^{8}

Energy difference = 6\times10^{-21}\ J[/tex]

Temperature T =300 K

We need to calculate the value of \dfrac{dU}{dM}

We know that,

\dfrac{dU}{dM}=\dfrac{energy\ difference}{Change\ in\ number\ of\ system}

\dfrac{dU}{dM}=\dfrac{6\times10^{-21}}{10^{8}}

\dfrac{dU}{dM}=6\times10^{-29}\ J/unit

Hence, The value of \dfrac{dU}{dM} is 6\times10^{-29}\ J/unit.
