Electromagnetic waves in air are 874,000 times as fast as sound waves.

I guess that's closer to <em>one million</em> than it is to one thousand.

An ice hockey puck slides along the ice at 12 m/s.?

Illusion [34]

Since we know that..

I = F . ∆t
= m . a . ∆t ( the puck accelerating after the collision with the hockey sticks)
= m . ∆v/∆t . ∆t
= m . ∆v

Solve for m, we get..

m = I / ∆v
= 4 / 12
= 1 / 3 kg or 0.33 kg

When a moving car is brought to a stop with the brakes, its acceleration vector is 29. (a) in the same direction as its velocity

professor190 [17]

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of motion, specifically that of acceleration. Acceleration can be defined as the change of speed in an instant of time, mathematically this is

$\vec{a} = \frac{\vec{v_2}-\vec{v_1}}{\Delta t}$

If a mobile is decreasing its speed (it is slowing down), then its acceleration is in the opposite direction to the movement. This would imply that the acceleration vector is opposite to the velocity vector.

Therefore the correct answer is B.

2 ways in which the effects of friction can be minimised in the experiment

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Friction can be minimized by using lubricants like oil and grease and by using ball bearing between machine parts. A substance that is introduced between two surfaces in contact, to reduce friction, is called a lubricant. Fluid friction can be minimized by giving suitable shapes to the objects moving in the fluids.

A train starts from rest and travels for 5.0 s with a uniform acceleration of 1.5 m/s2. What is the final velocity of the train?

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Final speed of the train is 7.5 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Uniform acceleration of the train is, a = 1.5 m/s²

It starts from rest and travels for 5.0 s. We have to find the final velocity of the train. By using first equation of motion as :
