Answer:

16.67m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance Pete drove  = 300m

Time taken  = 18s

Unknown:

Speed  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

   Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Speed  = \frac{300}{18}  = 16.67m/s

A 10.0g piece of copper wire, sitting in the sun reaches a temperature of 80.0 C. how many Joules are released when the copper c
Zolol [24]

Answer:

150.8 J

Explanation:

The heat released by the copper wire is given by:

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where:

m = 10.0 g is the mass of the wire

Cs = 0.377 j/(g.C) is the specific heat capacity of copper

\Delta T=40.0 C - 80.0 C=-40.0 C is the change in temperature of the wire

Substituting into the equation, we find

Q=(10.0 g)(0.377 J/gC)(-40.0^{\circ})=-150.8 J

And the sign is negative because the heat is released by the wire.

A spherical conductor is inside a uniform electric field with a magnitude of 1000 N/C to the right. What is the magnitude and di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1.-E=1000N/C to the LEFT

2.-The electric field inside a conductor in electrostatic state is always zero (conductor proprieties).

3.-The voltmeter read 0V as differential voltage between two points from the conductor

Explanation:

1.The electric field inside the conductor must be zero (conductor proprieties). Then the charges create a electric field equal an opposite to the external electric field. In other words E=1000N/C to the LEFT

2. The electric field inside a conductor in electrostatic state is always zero. As shown in the figure the electric field induced by the charges in the sphere surface cancelled the EXTERN electric field.

3.If the Electric field inside the conductor is zero, that means that the Voltage in the hole conductor is constant (conductor proprieties). In other words the the voltmeter read 0v as differential voltage between two points from the conductor.

wo lacrosse players collide in midair. Jeremy has a mass of 120 kg and is moving at a speed of 3 m/s. Hans has a mass of 140 kg
Julli [10]

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

Mass of Jeremy is 120 kg (M_J)

Speed of Jeremy is 3 m/s (V_J)

Speed of Jeremy after collision is (V_{JA}) -2.5 m/s

Mass of Hans is 140 kg (M_H)

Speed of Hans is -2 m/s (V_H)

Speed of Hans after collision is (V_{HA})

Linear momentum is defined as “mass time’s speed of the vehicle”. Linear momentum before the collision of Jeremy and Hans is  

= =\mathrm{M}_{1} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{J}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{H}}

Substitute the given values,

= 120 × 3 + 140 × (-2)

= 360 + (-280)

= 80 kg m/s

Linear momentum after the collision of Jeremy and Hans is  

= =\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{J}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{JA}}+\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}} \times \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{HA}}

= 120 × (-2.5) + 140 × V_{HA}

= -300 + 140 × V_{HA}

We know that conservation of liner momentum,

Linear momentum before the collision = Linear momentum after the collision

80 = -300 + 140 × V_{HA}

80 + 300 = 140 × V_{HA}

380 = 140 × V_{HA}

380/140= V_{HA}

V_{HA} = 2.71 m/s

2.71 m/s fast Hans is moving after the collision.
