Consider a car that travels between points A and B. The car's average speed can be greater than the magnitude of its average vel

ocity, but the magnitude of its average velocity can never be greater than its average speed. A) True B) False

ryzh [129]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: A.True

Explanation: simply put the magnitude of the speed is a function of Distance while the magnitude of velocity is a function of Displacement. Displacement is the average Distance moved in different directions which will be smaller in magnitude compared to the Total Distance used the calculating the magnitude of speed.

A train moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 seconds. What is the acceleration?
fredd [130]

Answer:

a = 0.83\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

It's known a train moves from rest (vo=0) to a speed of vf=25 m/s in t=30 seconds. It's required to calculate the acceleration.

Solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Substituting:

\displaystyle a=\frac{25-0}{30}

\boxed{a = 0.83\ m/s^2}

Consider a double slit experiment in the air. The wavelength of light is 500nm light, the screen is 1m away and two adjacent bri
Bess [88]

Answer: 0.75\ cm

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light \lambda=500\ nm

Screen is D=1\ m away

Distance between two adjacent bright fringe is \Delta y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

When same experiment done in water, wavelength reduce to \dfrac{\lambda }{\mu}

So, the distance between the two adjacent bright fringe is \Delta y'=\dfrac{\lambda D}{\mu d}

Keeping other factor same, distance becomes

\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{\frac{4}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\quad \text{Refractive index of water is }\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.75\ cm

When water freezes, its volume increases by 9.05%. What force per unit area is water capable of exerting on a container when it
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The Pressure is 0.20 MPa.

(b) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Change in volume = 9.05%

{tex]\dfrac{\Delta V}{V_{0}}=0.0905[/tex]

We know that.

The bulk modulus for water

B=0.20\times10^{10}\ N/m^2

We need to calculate the pressure difference

Using formula bulk modulus formula

B=\Delta P\dfrac{V_{0}}{\Delta V}

\Delta P=B\dfrac{\Delta V}{V_{0}}

\Delta P=0.2\times10^{10}\times0.0905

\Delta P=0.2\times10^{6}\ Pa

\Delta P=0.20 MPa

Hence, The Pressure is 0.20 MPa.

A certain kind of glass has an index of refraction of 1.640 for blue light of wavelength 440 nm and an index of 1.595 for red li
seraphim [82]

Answer: 18.27°

Explanation:

Given

Index of refraction of blue light, n(b) = 1.64

Wavelength of blue light, λ(b) = 440 nm

Index of refraction of red light, n(r) = 1.595

Wavelength of red light, λ(r) = 670 nm

Angle of incident, θ = 30°

Angle of refraction of red light is

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(n(a)* sin θ) / n(r)], where n(a) = index of refraction of air = 1

So that,

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(1 * sin 30) / 1.595]

θ(r) = sin^-1 (0.5 / 1.595)

θ(r) = sin^-1 0.3135

θ(r) = 18.27°
