A motarcycle covers a distance of 1.8km in 5minutes.Calculate its average velocity ​

Physics
1 answer:
MissTica3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.6 m/s

Explanation:

1.8 km = 1800 m

5 minutes= 300 s

Now,

Velocity = Displacement / time

= 1800/300

= 0.6 m /s

An example of when total internal reflection occurs is when all the light passing from a region of higher index of refraction to
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

is reflected back into the region of higher index

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is a phenomenon that occurs when all the light passing from a region of higher index of refraction to a region of lower index is reflected back into the region of higher index.

According to Snell's law, refraction of ligth is described by the equation

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n1 is the refractive index of the first medium

n2 is the refractive index of the second medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence (in the first medium)

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction (in the second medium)

Let's now consider a situation in which

n_1 > n_2

so light is moving from a medium with higher index to a medium with lower index. We can re-write the equation as

sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1

Where \frac{n_1}{n_2} is a number greater than 1. This means that above a certain value of the angle of incidence \theta_1, the term on the right can become greater than 1. So this would mean

sin \theta_2 > 1

But this is not possible (the sine cannot be larger than 1), so no refraction occurs in this case, and all the light is reflected back into the initial medium (total internal reflection). The value of the angle of incidence above which this phenomen occurs is called critical angle, and it is given by

\theta_c =sin^{-1}(\frac{n_2}{n_1})

The graph above shows the position and time calculate the velocity of the particle from T=0s to T=4s?
zzz [600]

Answer:

The velocity of the particle from T = 0 s to T = 4 s is;

0.5 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters from the graph are;

The initial displacement (covered) at time, t₁ = 0 s is x₁ = 1 m

The displacement covered at time, t₂ = 4 s is x₂ = 3 m

The graph of distance to time, from time t = 0 to time t = 4 is a straight line graph, with the velocity given by the rate of change of the displacement to the time which is dx/dt which is also the slope of the graph given as follows;

The \ slope \ of \ the \ displacement \ time \ graph, \ m =velocity, \ v= \dfrac{x_2 - x_1}{t_2 - t_1}

Therefore, \ the \ velocity \ of \ the \ particle \ v  = \dfrac{3 \  m - 1 \ m}{4 \ s - 0 \ s}  = \dfrac{2 \ m}{4 \  s} = \dfrac{1}{2} \ m/s

The velocity of the particle from t = 0 s to t  = 4 s = 1/2 m/s = 0.5 m/s.

Two uniform spheres,each of mass 0.260kg are fixed at points A and B
Ivan

Answer:

a) 2.76x10^-9 m/s^2

b) downward

Explanation:

a) In order to do this, we need to use the newton's law of gravitation which is:

F = G.m/r²

Where:

G: Constant of gravitation (6.67x10^-11 N/m)

m: mass of the object

r: distance or radius of the object.

In this case, we have two spheres, so this law becomes:

F = G*m1*m2 / r²

Now, you are not providing a picture with this, however, this problem is very similar to one I solved before, so, I'm gonna use the same values to solve this. If, you have different values for the distance, just replace them in this procedure and should get the correct and more accurate answer.

In this case, the distance that separates sphere in P from sphere A and B is 10 cm. As both spheres have the same mass and they are at the same distance from P, we can assume that F1 = F2 so:

F1 = (6.67x10^-11) * (0.01) * (0.26) / (0.1)² = 1.73x10^-11 N

sphere at P, will roll downward to the middle of sphere A and B. The distance between these two points it's 8 cm (See picture attached)

Now, according to my data, they are exerting a force in the y axis, so:

F1y = Fy * senФ

senФ using trigonometry is:

senФ = opposite lenght / hipotenuse

senФ = 8/10 = 0.8

Replacing:

F1y = 1.73x10^-11 * 0.8 = 1.38x10^-11 N

This force it's exactly the same as F2y, so the total force is:

F = 1.38x10^-11 * 2 = 2.76x10^-11 N

Finally, using the second law of Newton:

F = m*a

Solving for a:

a = F/m

replacing:

a = 2.76x10^-11 / 0.01

a = 2.76x10^-9 m/s²

According to the picture and the value of this magnitude, it's going downward.

How much force is need to accelerate a skier that is 66kg at a rate of 2 m/s2?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

132 N

Explanation:

newton's second law states that force = mass * acceleration

F = ma

plug in 66 kg for mass and 2 m/s^2 for acceleration

F = 66 * 2

F = 132 N

An ice skater spins with an angular speed 2w with an angular speed
sveticcg [70]
Anwser

It decreases The factor of two.

Step by step explanation

If she spin at a angular speed of 2w, and an initial speed of fi, when she slows down she is only has a angular speed of W, meaning that decreased 2

PS the anwser above me is wrong because in the question it said she decree so I couldn’t have stayed the same.

Hope this helps!
