On a trolley ride around an amusement park, a child travelled from one signpost to a second signpost at a constant speed of 125

meters per minute. Was the distance that the child travelled from the first signpost to the second signpost greater than 0.8km? (1km = 1,000meters)
1) It took less than 450 seconds for the child to travel from the first signpost to the second signpost

2) It took more than 400 seconds for the child to travel from the first signpost to the second signpost

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed given = 125 m /min

125 /60 m /s

In 450 second it will travel

= 450 x 125 / 60

=937.5 m.  

As the distance  is covered in less than 450 seconds , The distance must be less than 937.5 m

In 400 seconds , it will travel

= 400 x 125 / 60

833.33 m

Since the distance is covered in more than 400 seconds , the distance must be more than ie 833.33 .

Hence the distance covered is more than .833 m but less than 937.5

In either case these distance are more than .8 km .

If 745-nm and 660-nm light passes through two slits 0.54 mm apart, how far apart are the second-order fringes for these two wave
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

0.82 mm

Explanation:

The formula for calculation an n^{th} bright fringe from the central maxima is given as:

y_n=\frac{n \lambda D}{d}

so for the distance of the second-order fringe when wavelength \lambda_1 = 745-nm can be calculated as:

y_2 = \frac{n \lambda_1 D}{d}

where;

n = 2

\lambda_1 = 745-nm

D = 1.0 m

d = 0.54 mm

substituting the parameters in the above equation; we have:

y_2 = \frac{2(745nm*\frac{10^{-9m}}{1.0nm}(1.0m) }{0.54 (\frac{10^{-3m}} {1.0mm})}

y_2 = 0.00276 m

y_2 = 2.76 × 10 ⁻³ m

The distance of the second order fringe when the wavelength \lambda_2 = 660-nm is as follows:

y^'}_2 = \frac{2(660nm*\frac{10^{-9m}}{1.0nm}(1.0m) }{0.54 (\frac{10^{-3m}} {1.0mm})}

y^'}_2 = 1.94 × 10 ⁻³ m

So, the distance apart the two fringe can now be calculated as:

\delta y = y_2-y^{'}_2

\delta y = 2.76 × 10 ⁻³ m - 1.94 × 10 ⁻³ m

\delta y = 10 ⁻³ (2.76 - 1.94)

\delta y = 10 ⁻³ (0.82)

\delta y = 0.82 × 10 ⁻³ m

\delta y =  0.82 × 10 ⁻³ m (\frac{1.0mm}{10^{-3}m} )

\delta y = 0.82 mm

Thus, the distance apart the second-order fringes for these two wavelengths = 0.82 mm

An electric current in a wire flows to the West in a magnetic field directed
vredina [299]

Answer: Current in a wire

We can use the same right-hand rule as we did for the moving charges—pointer finger in the direction the current is flowing, middle finger in the direction of the magnetic field, and thumb in the direction the wire is pushed.

At an instant when a soccer ball is in contact with the foot of the player kicking it, the horizontal or x component of the ball
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of net force will be 432.758 N  

Explanation:

We have given x component of acceleration a_x=760m/sec^2

And vertical component of acceleration  a_y=770m/sec^2

Mass of the ball m = 0.40 kg

So net acceleration a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}=\sqrt{760^2+770^2}=1081.896m/sec^2

Now according to second law of motion

Force = mass × acceleration

So F = 0.40×1081.896 = 432.758 N
