Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{12}{3} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A particle with charge 6 mC moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 1.9000000000000001 J

Vesna [10]

Answer:

16.9000000000000001 J

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the initial kinetic energy from point A be $K_A$ = 1.9000000000000001 J

and the final kinetic energy from point B be $K_B$ = ???

The charge particle Q = 6 mC = 6 × 10⁻³ C

The change in the electric potential from point B to A;

i.e. V_B - V_A = -2.5 × 10³ V

According to the work-energy theorem:

-Q × ΔV = ΔK

$-Q \times ( V_B - V_A) = (K_B - K_A)$

$-(6\times 10^{-3}\ C) \times ( -2.5 \times 10^3) = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)$

$15 = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)$

$K_B = 15+ 1.9000000000000001 \ J$

$\mathbf{K_B =1 6.9000000000000001 \ J}$

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?

arlik [135]

Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!

Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.

That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)

A 1000 kg car moving a 10 m/s collides with a stationary 2000 kg truck. The two vehicles interlock as a result of the collision.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.

In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.

$(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}$

where:

m₁ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the car = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the truck = 0 (stationary)

v₃ = velocity of the two vehicles after the collision [m/s].

Now replacing:

$(1000*10)+(2000*0)=(1000+2000)*v_{3}\\v_{3}=3.33[m/s]$

A steel cable has a cross-sectional area 4.49 × 10^-3 m^2 and is kept under a tension of 2.96 × 10^4 N. The density of steel is

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.

Explanation:

let T = 2.96×10^4 N be the tension in in the steel cable, ρ = 7860 kg/m^3 is the density of the steel and A = 4.49×10^-3 m^2 be the cross-sectional area of the cable.

then, if V is the volume of the cable:

ρ = m/V

m = ρ×V

but V = A×L , where L is the length of the cable.

m = ρ×(A×L)

m/L = ρ×A

then the speed of the wave in the cable is given by:

v = √(T×L/m)

= √(T/A×ρ)

= √[2.96×10^4/(4.49×10^-3×7860)]

= 25.5 m/s

Therefore, the transverse wave will travel with a speed of 25.5 m/s along the cable.

(b) Fig. 1.1 shows two airports A and C. north SE с sea land क WE not to scale Fig. 1.1 An aircraft flies due north from A for a

GalinKa [24]

The addition of vectors and the uniform motion allows to find the answers for the questions about distance and time are:

The distance to go between airports A and C is 373.6 10³ m

The time to go from airport A to B is 2117 s

Vectors are quantities that have modulus and direction, so their addition must be done using vector algebra.

In this case the plane flies towards the North a distance of y = 360 10³ m at an average speed of v = 170 m / s, when arriving at airport B it turns towards the East and travels from x = 100 10³ m, until' it the distance reaches the airport C

Let's use the Pythagoras theorem to find the distance traveled

R = Ra x² + y²

R = 10³

R = 373.6 10³ m

They indicate the average speed for which we can use the uniform motion ratio

v = $\frac{\Delta y }{t}$
