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.

Three. Grams of the same substance in different phases are stored in three different containers. Each container is barely large

zzz [600]

Complete question is;

Three grams of the same substance in different phases are stored in three different containers. Each container is barely large enough to hold the substance. Which statement can be known about the behavior of the atoms in each container?

A) The atoms in the solid would be moving vigorously around the container.

B) The atoms in the liquid would be vibrating in position.

C) The atoms in the solid would be vibrating in position.

D) The atoms in the gas would be moving slowly around the container.

Answer:

Option C - The atoms in the solid would be vibrating in position

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because the molecules in solids are held together by strong inter molecular forces and therefore can't move about freely but instead will vibrate in their position.

Option B is wrong because the atoms in liquid are more free than those in solids. Thus they will not have room to vibrate.

Option C is correct from the explanation from option A.

Option D is wrong because the atom of the gas would be very loose and free and would therefore be moving very fast around the container

after a circuit has been turned off, so it is important to make sure they are discharged before you touch them. Suppose a 120 mF

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The time is $110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec$

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 120 μF

Voltage = 150 V

Resistance = 1.8 kΩ

Current = 50 mA

We need to calculate the discharge current

Using formula of discharge current

$i_{0}=\dfrac{V_{0}}{R}$

Put the value into the formula

$i_{0}=\dfrac{150}{1.8\times10^{3}}$

$i_{0}=83.3\times10^{-3}\ A$

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of current

$i=\dfrac{V_{0}}{R}e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}$

Put the value into the formula

$50=\dfrac{150}{1.8\times10^{3}}e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}$

$\dfrac{50}{83.3}=e^{\frac{-t}{RC}}$

$\dfrac{-t}{RC}=ln(0.600)$

$t=0.51\times1.8\times10^{3}\times120\times10^{-6}$

$t=110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec$

Hence, The time is $110.16\times10^{-3}\ sec$

The paper dielectric in a paper-and-foil capacitor is 0.0800 mm thick. Its dielectric constant is 2.50, and its dielectric stren

jeka94

Answer:

a) 0.723 m²

b) 2000V

Explanation:

Given that

Thickness of the capacitor, d = 0.08*10^-3 m

Dielectric constant of the capacitor, k = 2.5

Dielectric strength of the capacitor, E = 50*10^6

Capacitance of the capacitor, C = 0.2*10^-6

Permittivity of free space, E• = 8.85*10^-12

The area, A is given by the formula

A = (C * d) / (k * E•)

A = (0.2*10^-6 * 0.08*10^-3) / (2.5 * 8.85*10^-12)

A = 1.6*10^-11 / 2.213*10^-11

A = 0.723 m²

Potencial difference, V is given by the formula

V = E * d

V = 1/2 * 50*10^6 * 0.08*10^-3

V = 1/2 * 4000

V = 2000 V

Why does japan have so many volcanoes? <br><br> •paragraph

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

This reason is that Japan is located along the Pacific 'ring of fire' which is an area along the Pacific plate boundaries where there is a lot of volcanic activity

Explanation:

Japan also lies on the edges of several continental and oceanic plates so this is why Japan experiences a lot of earthquakes.
