Find the acceleration of a train whose speed increases from 7m/s to 17 m/s in 120s

1 answer:

7 0

Initial speed of the train = 7 m/s
Final speed of the train = 17 m/s
Change of speed of the train = (17 - 7) m/s
   = 10 m/s
Time taken for the change of the speed of the train = 120 s
Then
Acceleration of the train = Change of speed of the train/Time taken for the change of speed
   = 10/120 m/s^2
   = 1/12 m/s^2
   = 0.083 m/s^2
So the acceleration of the train is 1/12 meter per second square or 0.083 m/s^2. I hope this is the answer you were looking for.

A string of mass 60.0 g and length 2.0 m is fixed at both ends and with 500 N in tension. a. If a wave is sent along this string

Darya [45]

Answer:

The speed of wave is $v_1 = 129.1 \ m/s$

The new speed of the two waves is $v = 129.1 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the string is $m = 60 \ g = 60 *10^{-3} \ kg$

The length is $l = 2.0 \ m$

The tension is $T = 500 \ N$

Now the velocity of the first wave is mathematically represented as

$v_1 = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$

Where $\mu$ is the linear density which is mathematically represented as

$\mu = \frac{m}{l}$

substituting values

$\mu = \frac{ 60 *10^{-3}}{2.0 }$

$\mu = 0.03\ kg/m$

$v_1 = \sqrt{ \frac{500}{0.03} }$

$v_1 = 129.1 \ m/s$

Now given that the Tension, mass and length are constant the velocity of the second wave will same as that of first wave (reference PHYS 1100 )

at the center of the neutral metal block, what is the direction of the electric field contributed by the charge in and on the me

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The direction of electric field by the charge in and on the metal block will be along the direction line 5 as given in question.

<h3>How to determine electric field direction in a metal block?</h3>

The charge always remain on outer surface of metal and inside the metal block, the net electric field is zero. But due to dipole there is an electric field at the center of metal block i.e. at point R along direction line 1.

Now, to make make the net electric field zero at center, the electric field by the charge in and on the metal block must be equal in magnitude to that of electric field due to dipole at point R and in opposite direction to that of the net electric field at at R due to dipole.

The electric field by the charge in and on the metal block will be making 180° angle to the electric field due to dipole at point R.

Hence the direction of electric field by the charge in and on the metal block will be along the direction line 5 as given in question.

A quarter-wave monopole radio antenna (also called a Marconi antenna) consists of a long conductor of one quarter the length of

sasho [114]

Answer:

a) Height of the antenna (in m) for a radio station broadcasting at 604 kHz = 124.17 m

b)Height of the antenna (in m) for radio stations broadcasting at 1,710 kHz =43.86 m

Explanation:

(a) Radiowave wavelength= λ = c/f

As we know, Radiowave speed in the air = c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

f = frequency = 604 kHz = 604 x 10^3 Hz
