Answer:

1 m/s

Explanation:

This is because, everybody in the plane including the person walking is moving at the speed of the plane which is 200 m/s. Now, when the person starts to walk with a speed of 1 m/s, his relative velocity to the other passengers is 1 m/s since he is already moving at the speed of the plane before starting to walk.

His velocity relative to the ground V' = velocity of plane relative to ground, V + velocity of person relative to plane, v

V = 200 m/s and v = 1 m/s

So, V' = 200 m/s + 1 m/s = 201 m/s

Since the velocity of the other passengers is the velocity of the plane, V = 200 m/s. The velocity of the person traveling in reference to the other people on the plane is V" = V' - V = 201 m/s - 200 m/s = 1 m/s

A computer monitor uses 200 W of power. How much energy does it use in 10 seconds?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 0.556 Watts</u>

Explanation:

The computer monitor uses 200 Watts of power in an hour, that is the standard measure.

If we want to know, how much energy the computer monitor uses in one second, we will have to divide both sides of the equation into 3,600.

1 hour = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds (60 x 60)

Energy per second = 200/3600

Energy per second = 0.0556 Watts

Therefore to calculate how much energy is used in 10 seconds, we do this:

Energy per second x 10

<u>0.0556 x 10 = 0.556 Watts</u>

<u>The computer monitor uses 0.556 Watts in 10 seconds</u>

How do you work out the potential diffrance
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The potential difference is the drop in voltage that occurs across a resistor as current flows through it in a circuit, potential difference or voltage(V) = current (I) *resistance (R), or to abbrevate V = I*R. In this case, I = 5amps and R = 10 ohms, so V = 5 * 10 = 50volts

A 20 ft ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder is 3 ft from the wall at time t=0 and slides away from the wall at
stellarik [79]

Answer: 0.516 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder L=20 ft

The speed at which the ladder moving away is v=2 ft/s

after 1 sec, the ladder is 5 ft away from the wall

So, the other end of the ladder is at

\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{20^2-5^2}=19.36\ ft

Also, at any instant t

\Rightarrow l^2=x^2+y^2

differentiate w.r.t.

\Rightarrow 0=2xv+2yv_y\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{x}{y}\times v\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{5}{19.36}\times 2=0.516\ ft/s

A small but measurable current of 5.8 × 10-10 A exists in a copper wire whose diameter is 3.0 mm. The number of charge carriers
swat32

Answer:

a) The current density ,J = 2.05×10^-5

b) The drift velocity Vd= 1.51×10^-15

Explanation:

The equation for the current density and drift velocity is given by:

J = i/A = (ne)×Vd

Where i= current

A = Are

Vd = drift velocity

e = charge ,q= 1.602 ×10^-19C

n = volume

Given: i = 5.8×10^-10A

Raduis,r = 3mm= 3.0×10^-3m

n = 8.49×10^28m^3

a) Current density, J =( 5.8×10^-10)/[3.142(3.0×10^-3)^2]

J = (5.8×10^-10) /(2.83×10^-5)

J = 2.05 ×10^-5

b) Drift velocity, Vd = J/ (ne)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/ (8.49×10^28)(1.602×10^-19)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/(1.36 ×10^10)

Vd = 1.51× 10^-5
