Answer:

4.71m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered  = 40.5m

Time taken  = 8.6s

Unknown:

Speed  = ?

Solution:

The speed of Samantha is the distance divided by the time taken.

 

  Speed  = \frac{Distance}{time}  

 Now insert the parameters;

   Speed  = \frac{40.5}{8.6}   = 4.71m/s

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits​
Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.

Sliva [168]

Answer: The major challenges are as

1) understanding of the plasma: Plasma is a soup like mixture of subatomic particles of different atoms nuclei and electrons that are shattered apart by the temperature at which plasma is formed. further research is needed to understand the behavior of plasma so that it can be put to a proper use.

2) Confinement of plasma: Once we get the plasma we need to hold it so that we can obtain heat from it to drive a steam turbine but the sheer temperature of plasma is in millions of Celsius thus currently making it impossible to confine conventionally. Scientists use a loop of electric and magnetic fields to keep it in circulatory like manner so that it can be studied.

3) finally to obtain electricity from the plasma it should be stable to produce electricity. But currently to obtain pressure, temperature so that we have a sustained supply is highly difficult in technical and economical aspects.

Inertial confinement: In order to get the nuclei of atoms close enough for fusion this type of method used compression of the nuclei into highly small volumes.This is accomplished by use of lasers which are directed towards the fuel pellets that implode and travel towards other nuclei making fusion possible. It's main advantage is that it requires lesser time to initiate fusion but the disadvantage being that a large power is used to fire the lasers and the lasers should all hit the small target.

Magnetic Confinement: In this method we use a magnetic and electric fields in a properly designed space to keep the plasma in motion. In motion the nuclei of the atoms come close enough to initiate fusion.It's advantage being less power is required to start the process as compared to inertial confinement and the disadvantage being that plasma confinement is currently not properly understood.

Answer:

μ = 0.309

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.

θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰

In the vertical direction:

N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N

law of conservation of energy implies

mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)

100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)

150.6 - 1940μ = 450

- 1940μ = -600.6

μ = 0.309
