What is the speed of a car traveling 100 m in 20 s?

Physics

Ludmilka [50]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seconds which gives us 5 metres per second. ii) Rearranging the equation earlier, we can make the distance the subject of the equation so that we get SPEED x TIME = DISTANCE. We worked out the speed and the time was given as 1 minute 40 seconds but we cannot plug in the numbers yet as the time has to be converted to units of seconds (because our speed is in meters per second). 1 minute 40 seconds = 60 seconds + 40 seconds = 100 secondsWe then plug in the numbers to get the distance travelled = 5 metres per second x 100 seconds = 500 metres.

What is the difference between the spectrum of an incandescent solid and the spectrum of an incandescent gas?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.

Explanation:

Materials when heated emit a continuous spectrum with all wavelengths.

Hot gas gases emit a spectrum that depends on the transitions between atomic states, therefore it is a discrete spectrum.

When reviewing the answers, the correct one is:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.

In the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 3.40 mm . what is the differenc
Strike441 [17]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

Given:  

diffraction grating slits = 900 slits per centimeter

interference pattern that is observed on a screen from the grating = 2.38m

maxima for two different wavelengths = 3.40mm

 

slit separation .. d = 1/900cm = 1.11^-3cm = 1.111^-5 m <span>

Whenas n = 1, maxima (grating equation) sinθ = λ/d 
Grant distance of each maxima from centre = y .. 
<span>As sinθ ≈ y/D  y/D = λ/d λ = yd / D </span>

∆λ = (λ2 - λ1) = y2.d/D - y1.d/D 
∆λ = (d/D) [y2 -y1] 

<span>∆λ = 1.111^-5m x [3.40^-3m] / 2.38m .. .. ►∆λ = 1.587^-8 m</span></span>

Calculate the electric field at the center of a square
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}

The Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge q_1.

Explanation:

Given:

  • side of a square, a=52.5\ cm
  • charge on one corner of the square, q_1=+45\times 10^{-6}\ C
  • charge on the remaining 3 corners of the square,q_2=q_3=q_4=-27\times 10^{-6}\ C

<u>Distance of the center from each corners</u>=\frac{1}{2} \times diagonals

diagonal=\sqrt{52.5^2+52.5^2}

diagonal=74.25\cm=0.7425\ m

∴Distance of center from corners, b=0.3712\ m

Now, electric field due to charges is given as:

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\times \frac{q}{b^2}

<u>For charge q_1 we have the field lines emerging out of the charge since it is positively charged:</u>

E_1=9\times 10^9\times \frac{45\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}

  • E_1=2938775.5\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Force by each of the charges at the remaining corners:</u>

E_2=E_3=E_4=9\times 10^9\times \frac{27\times 10^{-6}}{0.3712^2}

  • E_2=E_3=E_4=1763265.3\ N.C^{-1}

<u> Now, net electric field in the vertical direction:</u>

E_y=E_1-E_4

E_y=1175510.2\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Now, net electric field in the horizontal direction:</u>

E_y=E_2-E_3

E_y=0\ N.C^{-1}

So the Magnitude of electric field is in the upward direction as shown directly towards the charge q_1.
