Suppose you are traveling down the highway at 100 km/hr, and want to pass a truck. You accelerate from 100 km/hr to 120 km/hr in

3 seconds in order to do so. What is your average acceleration, in meters per second squared (m/s 2 )

Answer:

1.87 ms-2

Explanation:

We need to convert the velocity from km/hr to m/s as follows;

100 × 1000/3600 = 27.7 m/s

Also

120 × 1000/3600 = 33.3 m/s

From;

v= u + at

v= 33.3 m/s

u= 27.7 m/s

t= 3 secs

v= u + at

a = v- u/t

a = 33.3 - 27.7/3

a= 1.87 ms-2

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision is } 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Explanation:

It says “Momentum before the collision is equal to momentum after the collision.” Elastic Collision formula is applied to calculate the mass or velocity of the elastic bodies.

m_{1} v_{1}=m_{2} v_{2}

\mathrm{m}_{1} \text { and } \mathrm{m}_{2} \text { are masses of the object }

\mathrm{v}_{1} \text { velocity before the collision }

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision }

\mathrm{m}_{1}=600 \mathrm{kg}

\mathrm{m}_{2}=900 \mathrm{kg}

\text { Velocity before the collision } v_{1}=5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

600 \times 5=900 \times v_{2}

3000=900 \times v_{2}

\mathrm{v}_{2}=\frac{3000}{900}

\mathrm{v}_{2}=3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision is } 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

A 40 cm wire with a radius of 3 cm is oriented along the y axis and carries a current of 2 A. What is the magnitude of the magne
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

a) B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

b) B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla

Explanation:

According to Biot - Savart Law, the magnetic field due to a currnt carrying straight wire is given as:

B = μ₀ I L/4πr²

where,

μ₀ = permebility of free space = 1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹

I = current = 2 A

L = Length of wire = 40 cm = 0.4 m

a)

r = radius of magnetic field = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.02 m)²

<u>B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

<u></u>

b)

r = radius of magnetic field = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Therefore,

B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.03 m)²

<u>B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

Problem:
Mars2501 [29]
I do have a couple ideas and tips that may help you win. I don’t know how the guidelines are set up so if the ideas won’t be helpful I apologize.

First off put some ice cubes in the container then sprinkle salt on them, The reaction will create an effect and be super cold.


Another idea would be to get some dry ice if you able to, This will freeze it solid within seconds.


The last idea combines the the first. Take a bowl and fill it with with water and ice (Make sure the bowl is insulated) add a small handful of salt into the bowl, Put your drink into the cooler and before shutting stir then well then close and wait for the amount of time left, Your should have a cold water bottle.


I hoped this helped you out and I hope you also win the contest.
