S=20 m
v=10 m/s
t=s/v
= 20/10
= 2 s.

A person in the back of a pick-up moving at 20 m/s relative to the Earth, throws a baseball with a speed of 15 m/s in a directio
Bumek [7]

Answer:

This is known as a Galilean transformation where

V' = V - U

Where the primed frame is the Earth frame and the unprimed frame is the frame moving with respect to the moving frame

V - speed of object in the unprimed frame

U - speed of primed frame with respect to the unprimed frame

Here we have:

V = -15 m/s        speed of ball in the moving frame (the truck)

U =  -20 m/s        speed of primed (rest) frame with respect to moving frame

So  V' = -15 - (-20) = 5 m/s

It may help if you draw a vector representing the moving frame and then add

a vector representing the speed of the ball in the moving frame.

Calculate the change in length of a 90.5 mm aluminum bar that has increased in temperature by from -14.4 oC to 154.6 oC
nignag [31]

Answer:

 ΔL = 3.82 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

This is a thermal expansion exercise

          ΔL = α L₀ ΔT

          ΔT = T_f - T₀

where ΔL is the change in length and ΔT is the change in temperature

Let's reduce the length to SI units

          L₀ = 90.5 mm (1m / 1000 mm) = 0.0905 m

let's calculate

          ΔL = 25.10⁻⁶ 0.0905 (154.6 - (14.4))

          ΔL = 3.8236 10⁻⁴ m

     

using the criterion of three significant figures

          ΔL = 3.82 10⁻⁴ m

An electron is released a short distance above earth's surface. a second electron directly below it exerts an electrostatic forc
slamgirl [31]

The mass of an electron is 9.109 x 10⁻³¹ kg

The weight of the electron is (mass) x (g) =  8.926 x 10⁻³⁰ Newton

The charge on an electron is -1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ Coulomb

The repelling force between the two electrons is (K · q₁ · q₂ / r²) =

(8.98755 x 10⁹ N-m²/C²) x (1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)² / D²

In order for the bottom one to just exactly hold the top one up at a distance 'D', the repelling force has to be exactly equal to the weight of the upper electron.

8.926 x 10⁻³⁰ N = (8.98755 x 10⁹ N-m²/C²)·(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)² / D²

We have to solve THAT ugly mess for ' D '.

Clean up the units first:

Cancel the C² on the right side, then divide each side by Newton:

8.926 x 10⁻³⁰ = (8.98755 x 10⁹ m²) x (1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)² / D²

Now, let's multiply both sides by (D² x 10²⁹) :

D² x 8.926 x 10⁻¹ = (8.98755 m²) x (1.602)²

Divide each side by (0.8926):

D² = (8.98755 x 1.602²) / (0.8926)  meter²

D² = 25.84 m²

Take the square root of each side:

<em>D = 5.08 meters</em>

If you decrease the length of a wire, what effect will it have on resistance

As the length increases, resistance increases, as a result current decreases.

If an electron loses energy what may happen to it
MAVERICK [17]
<span>When an electron is hit by a photon of lights,it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state.Electrons therefore have to jump around within the atom as they either gain or lose energy.</span>
