Avg velocity definition | Problem Average velocity vectors…

Physics
1 answer:
Aneli [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

point in the same direction as the change in position.

require knowing the initial and final position, along with the elapsed time.

Explanation:

As we know that average velocity is defined as the ratio of change in position and the time interval of the object

It is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

so we will have

\Delta x = displacement

\Delta t = time interval

the direction is this average velocity is always along the direction of the displacement

so correct answer will be

point in the same direction as the change in position.

require knowing the initial and final position, along with the elapsed time.

Light of wavelength 608.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 88.5 cm from the slit.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.167 mm

Explanation:

Wavelength of light, \lambda=608\ nm=608\times 10^{-9}\ m

Distance from screen to slit, D = 88.5 cm = 0.885 m

The distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is 1.61 cm, y = 1.61 cm = 0.0161 m

We need to find the width of the slit. The formula for the distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is :

y=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{a}

where

a = width of the slit

a=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{y}

a=\dfrac{5\times 0.885\ m\times 608\times 10^{-9}\ m}{0.0161\ m}

a = 0.000167 m

a=1.67\times 10^{-4}\ m

a = 0.167 mm

So, the width of the slit is 0.167 mm. Hence, this is the required solution.

A pendulum bob executing simple harmonic motion has 2cm and 12Hz as amplitude and frequency respectively. Calculate the period o
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The amplitude is extraneous information for this question.

Period (T) is simply a measure of time (how long it takes to complete a full cycle).

The frequency (f), is the reciprocal (how many cycles it can complete per unit of time).

The frequency reported is 12Hz.  Hz is a unit meaning "cycles per second"

Thus 12cycles = 1second.

To find the number of seconds per cycle, simply create the other unit fraction and simplify:

T=\frac{1second}{12cycles}\\T=0.8\bar{3}\frac{seconds}{cycle}\\

T=0.83seconds

A 30-kg child sits at the top of a 3-meter slide. After sliding down, the child is traveling 4 m/s. How much PE does he start wi
Jobisdone [24]
At the top:

         Potential Energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

                                       = (30 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3 meters)

                                       =      882 joules

At the bottom:

           Kinetic Energy  =  (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                       = (1/2) x (30 kg) x (3 m/s)²

                                       =        (15 kg)  x  (9 m²/s²)

                                       =              135 joules .

He had  882 joules of potential energy at the top,
but only  135 joules of kinetic energy at the bottom.

Friction stole  (882 - 135) = 747 joules of his energy while he slid down.
The seat of his jeans must be pretty warm.

By how much does the pressure of a gas in a rigid vessel decrease when the temperature drops from 0 ∘C to –1∘C?
Ugo [173]
When a problem says a rigid vessel, it means that volume is constant. At constant V, pressure and temperature are indirectly proportional. We calculate as follows:

P1/T1 = P2/T2
P1/P2 = T1/T2
P1/P2 = 273.15 / 272.15
P1/P2 = 1.00

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
