Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant

(and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 6.0 m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 11 m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed.What is the final spend?

Answer:

v = 21 m / s

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise with the kinematics equations, let's start by finding the acceleration of the train with the initial data

            v = v₀ + a t

the initial speed is the speed within the city 6 m / s, the final speed is v = 11 m / s and the time is t = 8 s

             a = (v-v₀) / t

             a = (11 - 6) / 8

             a = 0.625 m / s²

when it leaves the city with speed vo = 11 m / s it accelerates for t = 16 s

            v = v₀ + a t

            v = 11 + 0.625 16

             v = 21 m / s

The electric current in a wire is 1.5A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2s?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the ratio of the quantity of charge flowing through a conductor to the time taken.

i.e           I = \frac{Q}{t} ...................(1)

It is measure in Amperes and can be measured in the laboratory by the use of an ammeter.

In the given question, I = 1.5A, t = 2s, find Q.

From equation 1,

            Q = I × t

                = 1.5 × 2

               = 3.0 Coulombs

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

How far apart must two protons be if the electrical force acting on either one is equal to its weight on the earth's surface whe
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = F   force of attraction for proton

K e^2 / r^2 = F     force of attraction between 2 protons

G M m / R^2 = K e^2 / r^2

r^2 = K e^2 R^2 / (G M m)

r^2 = 9E9 * (1.6E-19)^2 * (6.37E6)^2 / (6.67E-11 * 5.98E24 * 1.7E-27)

r^2 = 9 * 2.56 * 40.6 / (6.67 * 5.98 * 1.7) * 10^-19

r^2 = 1.38 * 10^-30

r = 1.17E-15 m

2. A woman prevents a 3kg brick from falling by pressing it against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction
Anettt [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

49 N

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of the brick as 3 kg
  • The coefficient of friction as 0.6

We are required to determine the force that must be applied by the woman so the brick does not fall.

  • We need to importantly note that;
  • For the brick not to fall the, the force due to gravity is equal to the friction force acting on the brick.
  • That is; Friction force = Mg

But; Friction force = μ F

Therefore;

μ F = mg

0.6 F = 3 × 9.8

0.6 F = 29.4

      F = 49 N

Therefore, she must use a force of 49 N
