Answer:

27,000 m

450 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity is 0 m/s:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 15 m/s²

t = 60 s

A) Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (60 s) + ½ (15 m/s²) (60 s)²

Δy = 27,000 m

B) Find: v_avg

v_avg = Δy / t

v_avg = 27,000 m / 60 s

v_avg = 450 m/s

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

$Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\$

The plate and the rod must have $Q_{total}/2\\$ . So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

$Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\$

Number of electrons:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

A 2.00 kg box slides on a rough, horizontal surface, hits a spring with a speed of 1.90 m/s and compresses it a distance of 10.0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box $m=2\ kg$

speed of box $v=1.9\ m/s$

distance moved by the box $x=10\ cm$

coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.66$

Friction force $f_r=\mu_kN$

$f_r=0.66\times mg$

$f_r=0.66\times 2\times 9.8=12.936 \N$

Kinetic Energy of box will be utilize to overcome friction and rest is stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=f_r\cdot x+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.9^2=12.936\times 0.1+\frac{1}{2}\times k\times (0.1)^2$

$3.61-1.2936=0.005\times k$

$k=463.28\ N/m$

7. Which quantity is the transfer of energy?<br> force<br> motion<br> work

Arisa [49]

In this exercise we have to know the definition of energy to understand what is transferred to a body, like this:

Work

<h2>What is energy?</h2>

Despite being used in many different contexts, the scientific use of the word energy has a well-defined and precise meaning: Innate potential to perform work or perform an action. Anything that is working, moving another object, or heating it up, for example, is expending (transferring) energy.

With this definition we can say that the only alternative that responds to this is work.
