Answer:

v = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a rat, d = 1400 m

Time, t = 16 minutes = 960 s

We need to find the average speed of the rat. The speed of an object is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{1400\ m}{960\ s}\\\\v=1.45\ m/s

or

v = 1.5 m/s

So, the average speed of the rat is 1.5 m/s.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field at the location of given that the square is 6.05 cm on a side.
Serggg [28]

The term “electric field” refers to the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and acts to either attract or repel all other charged particles in the field (also known as an E-field).

It can also refer to the physical field surrounding a system of charged particles. Electric fields are composed of electric charges and time-varying electric currents.

Both electric and magnetic fields are manifestations of the electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (sometimes known as forces) of nature.

Electrical technology makes use of electric fields, which are significant in many branches of physics.

For instance, in atomic physics and chemistry, the electric field acts as an attractive force to hold atoms’ atomic nuclei and electrons together. It is also the force that causes atoms to chemically link together to form molecules.

A policeman is chasing a criminal across a rooftop at 10 m/s. He decides to jump to the next building which is 2 meters across f
valina [46]

Answer:

They will meet at a distance of 7.57 m

Given:

Initial velocity of policeman in the x- direction, u_{x} = 10 m/s

The distance between the buildings, d_{x} = 2.0 m

The building is lower by a height, h = 2.5 m

Solution:

Now,

When the policeman jumps from a height of 2.5 m, then his initial velocity, u was 0.

Thus

From the second eqn of motion, we can write:

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

2.5 = \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times t^{2}

t = 0.707 s

Now,

When the policeman was chasing across:

d_{x} = u_{x}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

d_{x} = 10\times 0.707 + \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 0.5 = 9.57 m

The distance they will meet at:

9.57 - 2.0 = 7.57 m

A waitperson carrying a tray with a platter on it tips the tray at an angle of 12 degrees below the horizontal. If the gravitati
Tasya [4]

Answer:1.04 N

Explanation:

Given

Gravitational Force on the Platter is 5 N

Tray makes an angle of \theta =12^{\circ}

This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter

Perpendicular Force W_p=W\cos \theta

W_p=5\times \cos 12=4.89 N

Along the Tray

W_{along}=W\sin \theta

W_{along}=5\times \sin 12=1.04 N

Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
