ki77a [65]2 years ago
4 0

<u>We are given:</u>

constant speed of the car (u) = 36.12 m/s

time in question (t) = 12 seconds

<u>Solving for the Distance and Displacement:</u>

from the second equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2 at^2

since we have 0 acceleration:

s = ut

<em>replacing the variables</em>

s = 36.12 * 12

s = 433.44 m

Since the car is travelling in a straight line towards the same direction, it's Distance will be equal to its Displacement

Hence, both the Displacement and <u>Distance covered by the car is </u>

<u>433.44 m</u>

but since Displacement also has a direction vector along with it,

the <u>Displacement will be  433.44 m due west</u>

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The weight of the landing craft in the vicinity of Callisto's surface is 3480 N.

Explanation:

The engine of the craft provides an upward thrust of 3480 N so that the space craft descends at a constant speed.

This implies that the net force on the space craft is zero.

The upward thrust will be equal to the downward gravitational pull by Callisto.

So the weight of the craft near the vicinity will be 3480 N.

What is the 4th dimension? I have heard that it's time, it's a from of saying characteristic. I don't know I need help on this,
sashaice [31]

If you want to tell a friend about a fish you caught or a tree you cut down,
you're going to tell him WHERE you were ... its position in space, 3 numbers,
'x', 'y', and 'z' ... and also WHEN you were ... its position in time, one more
number. 

Dimensions are numbers used to describe the location of a point, and the
difference in location between two points.  With four numbers, you can exactly
describe the location of anything, and its distance from any other thing, in
space and time.

Calculate the speed for a car that went a distance of 125 meters in 2 seconds time.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

<h2>62.5 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The speed of the car can be found by using the formula

s =  \frac{d}{t} \\

d is the distance

t is the time

From the question we have

s =  \frac{125}{2}  = 62.5 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>62.5 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

Monochromatic light of a given wavelength is incident on a metal surface. However, no photoelectrons are emitted. If electrons a
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Light of a shorter wavelength should be used.

Explanation:

This is studied in the phenomenon called photoelectric effect, in which light is able to release electrons from a metal, said electrons are called photoelectrons .

The experiments that have been carried out show that <u>increasing  or decreasing the intensity of the light will not cause the photoelectrons to be emitted</u>, what will cause the photoelectrons to be emitted is to increase the frequency of the incident light.

And a higher frequency corresponds to a shorter wavelength according to the equation:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

(where f is frequency, c the speed of light, and \lambda the wavelength)

So the answer is that the wavelength of the light must be shortened to cause the emission of electrones.
