Answer:

2.5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car  = 2000kg

Force produced by the car  = 5000N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion, Force is a product of mass and acceleration.

  Force  = mass x acceleration

Now, insert the parameters and find the unknown;

  5000 = 2000 x acceleration

   Acceleration  = \frac{5000}{2000}   = 2.5m/s²

Why do you think the combined wave is more powerful than either the transverse or longitudinal wave with the same amplitude
liq [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

The combined wave only end up been more powerful than the Longitudinal wave. This means, the transverse wave is more powerful than the combined wave. In transverse wave, the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while in longitudinal wave, the motion of the movement of the object is parallel to the movement of the wave. And in combined wave, the movement of the medium is in a circular manner,

Which of the physical variables listed below will change when you change the area of the capacitor plates (while keeping the bat
RSB [31]

Answer:

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor

Explanation:

Let A be the area of the capacitor plate

The capacitance of a capacitor is given as;

C = \frac{Q}{V} = \frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} \\\\

where;

V is the potential difference between the plates

The charge on the plates is given as;

Q = \frac{V\epsilon _0 A}{d}

The energy stored in the capacitor is given as;

E = \frac{1}{2} CV^2\\\\E = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} )V^2

Thus, the physical variables listed that will change include;

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor

Your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in th
REY [17]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.

If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.

The best answer is therefore option D.

When using a calorimeter, the initial temperature of a metal is 70.4C. The initial temperature of the water is 23.6C. At the end
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

1) 29.8 C

At the beginning, the metal is at higher temperature (70.4 C) while the water is at lower temperature (23.6 C). When they are put in contact, the metal transfers heat to the water, until they reach thermal equilibrium: at thermal equilibrium the two objects (the metal and the water have same temperature). Therefore, since the temperature of the water at thermal equilibrium is 29.8 C, the final temperature of the metal must be the same (29.8 C).

2) 6.2 C

The temperature change of the water is given by the difference between its final temperature and its initial temperature:

\Delta T = T_f - T_i

where

T_f = 29.8 C\\T_i = 23.6 C

Substituting into the formula,

\Delta T=29.8 C-23.6 C=6.2 C

And the positive sign means that the temperature of the water has increased.

3) -40.6 C

The temperature change of the metal is given by the difference between its final temperature and its initial temperature:

\Delta T = T_f - T_i

where

T_f = 29.8 C\\T_i = 70.4 C

Substituting into the formula,

\Delta T=29.8 C-70.4 C=-40.6 C

And the negative sign means the temperature of the metal has decreased.
