2- A car on a straight highway goes in the positive direction for 8 km and then backs up for 3.6 km. What are the distance and d

Answer:

11.6km

4.4km in the negative direction

Explanation:

Distance is the total length of path covered and traveled by a body.

So, for this car on a straight line;

Total distance = 8km + 3.6km = 11.6km

Displacement is the distance traveled along a path and the direction it takes.

It is a vector quantity with magnitude and directional attributes.

For this journey;

Displacement = 8km - 3.6km = 4.4km in the negative direction.

A projector is placed on the ground 22 ft. away from a projector screen. A 5.2 ft. tall person is walking toward the screen at a

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet, y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

y = y₀ L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

v = d / t

d = v t

we replace

y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

y = 114.4 / (22-13)

y = 67.6 feet

Positive Charge is distributed along the entire x axis with a uniform density 12 nC/m. A proton is placed at a position of 1.00

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

b. $\Delta KE = 390 eV$

Explanation:

As we know that the electric field due to infinite line charge is given as

$E =\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}$

here we can find potential difference between two points using the relation

$\Delta V = \int E.dr$

now we have

$\Delta V = \int(\frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0 r}).dr$

now we have

$\Delta V = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_0}ln(\frac{r_2}{r_1})$

now plug in all values in it

$\Delta V = \frac{12\times 10^{-9}}{2\pi \epsilon_0}ln(\frac{1+5}{1})$

$\Delta V = 216ln6 = 387 V$

now we know by energy conservation

$\Delta KE = q\Delta V$

$\Delta KE = (e)(387V) = 387 eV$

A steel wire of length 31.0 m and a copper wire of length 17.0 m, both with 1.00-mm diameters, are connected end to end and stre

Brut [27]

Answer:

The time taken is $t = 0.356 \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of steel the wire is $l_1 = 31.0 \ m$

The length of the copper wire is $l_2 = 17.0 \ m$

The diameter of the wire is $d = 1.00 \ m = 1.0 *10^{-3} \ m$

The tension is $T = 122 \ N$

The time taken by the transverse wave to travel the length of the two wire is mathematically represented as

$t = t_s + t_c$

Where $t_s$ is the time taken to transverse the steel wire which is mathematically represented as

$t_s = l_1 * [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho * \pi * d^2 }{ 4 * T} } ]$

here $\rho_s$ is the density of steel with a value $\rho_s = 8920 \ kg/m^3$

So

$t_s = 31 * [ \sqrt{ \frac{8920 * 3.142* (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 * 122} } ]$

$t_s = 0.235 \ s$

And

$t_c$ is the time taken to transverse the copper wire which is mathematically represented as

$t_c = l_2 * [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho_c * \pi * d^2 }{ 4 * T} } ]$

here $\rho_c$ is the density of steel with a value $\rho_s = 7860 \ kg/m^3$

So

$t_c = 17 * [ \sqrt{ \frac{7860 * 3.142* (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 * 122} } ]$

$t_c =0.121$

So

$t = t_c + t_s$

$t = 0.121 + 0.235$

$t = 0.356 \ s$
