A train moving at a constant speed on a surface inclined upward at 10.0° with the horizontal travels a distance of 400 meters in

5 seconds. Calculate the vertical velocity component of the train during this time period
Physics

If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:

Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s. 

So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.

Which two types of air masses would likely form a subtropical jet stream?
shepuryov [24]
The exact location of the 'subtropical-jet stream' is located at the North phase of 30 Degrees and the reason behind this is due to the variation of air which lies on the region of mid-altitude and warmer equatorial air. the correct answer would be Cool and Warm air masses meeting near the equator.

What are the applications of pascal's principle​
Murrr4er [49]

Explanation:

  • The applications are, hydraulic lift- to transmit equal pressure throughout a fluid.
  • Hydraulic jack- used in the braking system of cars.
  • use of a straw- to suck fluids, which goes because of air pressure.
<h3>The question simply asks, where pressure can be applied. There are many others, such as <em><u>l</u></em><em><u>i</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>p</u></em><em><u>u</u></em><em><u>m</u></em><em><u>p</u></em><em><u>.</u></em></h3>

The focal length for a spherical convex mirror is –20 cm. What is its radius of curvature?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:

f=-\frac{R}{2}

rewriting for R:

R=-2f=-2*-20cm=40 cm.

A wave takes 0.5 seconds to complete one cycle. Which characteristic of the wave does this description represent? A. period B. w
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

period

Explanation:

A wave takes 0.5 seconds to complete one cycle. It is called the time period of the wave. It is the time taken by the wave to complete one cycle.

The relation between the time period and the frequency is given by :

T = 1/f

Where

f is frequency of the wave

Hence, the correct option is (a) "period".
