Answer:

201.5537 mph

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 90.1 m/s

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = distance/time

To convert this value into miles per hour;

Conversion;

1 meter = 0.000621 mile

90.1 meters = 90.1 * 0.000621 = 0.05595 miles

1 metre per second = 2.237 miles per hour

90.1 meters per seconds = 90.1 * 2.237 = 201.5537 miles per hour

90.1 m/s = 201.5537 mph

Determine the value of the current in the solenoid so that the magnetic field at the center of the loop is zero tesla. Justify y

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

I will explain the concept of magnetic field and how it can be calculated.

Explanation:

The formula for magnetic field at the center of a loop is given as

B = μ $_{o}$ I / 2R

where B is the magnetic field

R is the radius of the loop

I is the current

and μ $_{o}$ is the magnetic permeability of free space which is a constant 4π × $10^{-7}$ newtons/ampere²

If the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 0, then μ $_{o}$ I = 0

I = 0 which means there will be no current flow in the loop.

A proton, an electron, and a helium nucleus all move at speed v . Rank their de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Ranking of de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest is electron > proton > helium

De Broglie proposed that because light has both wave and particle properties, matter exhibits both wave and particle properties. This property has been explained as the dual behavior of matter.
From his observations, de Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship

De Broglie's relationship is given by $\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}$ .....(1) , where λ is known as de Broglie wavelength and m is mass , v is velocity , h = Plank’s constant.

From equation (1) wavelength and mass has an inverse relation .

Mass of helium is 4 times the mass of the proton and proton has a greater mass than electron.

According to equation (1) , less the mass higher will be the wavelength

Hence electron having less mass have higher wavelength and then proton and then helium having large mass will have less wavelength .

Thus, order should be electron > proton > helium .

Sarah weighs 500 newtons. She climbs a set of stairs 6 meters high. How much work does she do? 83 J Work equals force times dist

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Answer: Work equals force times distance. 3,000 J

Explanation:

Work Done By A Force

When some force $\vec F$ is applied and a displacement $\vec r$ is achieved, the work done by the force is given by

$W=\vec F \cdot \vec r$

Note that the work is a scalar magnitude as the result of the dot-product of two vectors. If the force and the displacement are parallel, then the vectors can be replaced as its magnitudes F,x and the work is

$W=F.x$

The dot product becomes a simple arithmetic product, i.e force times distance.

Sara weighs 500 Nw and she climbs up a 6 meter set of stairs. She needs to lift her weight up, so the force is the weight and the distance is the height of the stairs, thus

$W=500\ Nw.\ 6\ m=3,000\ Joule$

Answer: Work equals force times distance. 3,000 J
