8 0

Explanation:

Take north to be positive and south to be negative.

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (-4.5 m/s − 4.5 m/s) / 8 s

a = -1.125 m/s²

The acceleration is 1.125 m/s² south.

Which of the following is the best paraphrasing of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle?
nadezda [96]
<h2>Answer: The more precisely you know the position of a particle, the less well you can know the momentum of the particle </h2>

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle was enunciated in 1927. It postulates that the fact that each particle has a wave associated with it, imposes restrictions on the ability to determine <u>its position and speed at the same time.  </u>

In other words:  

<em>It is impossible to measure simultaneously (according to quantum physics), and with absolute precision, the value of the position and the momentum (linear momentum) of a particle.</em>  

<h2>So, the greater certainty is seeked in determining the position of a particle, the less is known its linear momentum and, therefore, its mass and velocity.  </h2><h2 />

In fact, even with the most precise devices, the uncertainty in the measurement continues to exist. Thus, in general, the greater the precision in the measurement of one of these magnitudes, the greater the uncertainty in the measure of the other complementary variable.  

Therefore the correct option is C.

A circuit element consists of a resistor with value 20Ω and inductor with value 10mH connected in series. A voltage of LaTeX: v(
Flura [38]

Answer:

8.97 Watt

Explanation:

Resistance, R = 20 ohm

Inductance, L = 10 mH

V(t) = 20 Cos (1000 t + 45°)

Compare with the standard equation

V(t) = Vo Cos(ωt + Ф)

Ф = 45°

ω = 1000 rad/s

Vo = 20 V

Inductive reactance, XL = ωL = 1000 x 0.01 = 10 ohm

impedance is Z.

Z = \sqrt{R^{2}+X_{L}^{2}}

Z = \sqrt{20^{2}+10^{2}}

Z = 22.36 ohm

V_{rms}=\frac{V_{0}}{\sqrt{2}}

V_{rms}=\frac{20}{\sqrt{2}} = 14.144 V

I_{rms}=\frac{V_{rms}}{Z}=\frac{14.144}{\sqrt{22.36}}=0.634 A

Apparent power is given by

P = Vrms x Irms

P = 14.144 x 0.634

P = 8.97 Watt
