What is the average velocity of a car if it travels from position 25m to a position of -7m in 34 seconds?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

vp = 0.94 m/s

Explanation

Formula

Vp = position/ time

position: Initial position - Final position

Position = 25 m - (-7 m) = 25 m + 7 m = 32 m

Then

Vp = 32 m / 34 seconds

Vp = 0.94 m/s

If a plane has an airspeed of 40 m/s and is experiencing a crosswind of 30 m/s, what is its ground speed in m/s?
Anon25 [30]
<h2>Answer:50ms^{-1}</h2>

Explanation:

Let v_{a} be the airspeed.

Let v_{w} be the cross wind speed.

We know that,ground speed is the vector sum of airspeed and cross wind speed and airspeed is perpendicular to cross wind speed.

If v_{1} and v_{2} are two perpendicular vectors,the resultant vector has the magnitude \sqrt{|v|_{1}^{2}+|v|_{2}^{2}}

Given,

v_{a}=40ms^{-1}\\v_{c}=30ms^{-1}

So,the ground speed is \sqrt{40^{2}+30^{2}}=\sqrt{2500}=50ms^{-1}

A charged particle enters a uniform magnetic field B with a velocity v at right angles to the field. It moves in a circle with p
alukav5142 [94]

A) d. 10T

When a charged particle moves at right angle to a uniform magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude os given by

F=qvB

where q is the charge of the particle, v is the velocity, B is the strength of the magnetic field.

This force acts as a centripetal force, keeping the particle in a circular motion - so we can write

qvB = \frac{mv^2}{r}

which can be rewritten as

v=\frac{qB}{mr}

The velocity can be rewritten as the ratio between the lenght of the circumference and the period of revolution (T):

\frac{2\pi r}{T}=\frac{qB}{mr}

So, we get:

T=\frac{2\pi m r^2}{qB}

We see that this the period of revolution is directly proportional to the mass of the particle: therefore, if the second particle is 10 times as massive, then its period will be 10 times longer.

B) a. f/10

The frequency of revolution of a particle in uniform circular motion is

f=\frac{1}{T}

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

We see that the frequency is inversely proportional to the period. Therefore, if the period of the more massive particle is 10 times that of the smaller particle:

T' = 10 T

Then its frequency of revolution will be:

f'=\frac{1}{T'}=\frac{1}{(10T)}=\frac{f}{10}
