Valentin [98]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

The difference of electrical potential between two points is called the potential difference.

It is also defined as the work done in the transfer of a unit quantity of electricity from one point to the other.

The SI unit of electric potential is volt. It is denoted by V.

Sally travels by car from one city to another. She drives for 26.0 min at 83.0 km/h, 52.0 min at 41.0 km/h, and 45.0 min at 60.0
Anna007 [38]
The average speed is determined by the following formula:

average speed = [sum of (speed * time for which that speed was traveled)] / total time

average speed = [(83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60] / [(26 + 52 + 45 + 15) / 60]
*note: The division by 60 is to convert minutes to hours. We see that the 60 cancels from the top and bottom of the division

average speed = 50.65 km/hr

The total distance traveled is equivalent to the numerator of the fraction we used in the first part. This is:
Distance = (83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60

Distance = 116.5 kilometers

One object (m1 = 0.220 kg) is moving to the right with a speed of 2.10 m/s when it is struck from behind by another object (m2 =
blagie [28]

Answer:

vf₁  = 6.86 m/s , to the right

vf₂ =  2.96 m/s, to the right

Explanation:

Theory of collisions  

Linear momentum is a vector magnitude (same direction of the velocity) and its magnitude is calculated like this:  

p=m*v  

where  

p:Linear momentum  

m: mass  

v:velocity  

There are 3 cases of collisions : elastic, inelastic and plastic.  

For the three cases the total linear momentum quantity is conserved:  

P₀ = Pf Formula (1)  

P₀ :Initial linear momentum quantity  

Pf : Final linear momentum quantity  

Data

m₁= 0.220 kg : mass of  object₁

m₂= 0.345 kg : mass of  object₂

v₀₁ =  2.1 m/s ₁ , to the right : initial velocity of m₁

v₀₂=   6 m/s, to the right  i :initial velocity of m₂

Problem development

We appy the formula (1):

P₀ = Pf  

m₁*v₀₁ + m₂*v₀₂ = m₁*vf₁ + m₂*vf₂  

We assume that the two objects move to the right at the end of the collision, so, the sign of the final speeds is positive:

(0.22)*(2.1) + (0.345)*(6) = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*vf₂ Equation (1)

Because the shock is elastic, the coefficient of elastic restitution (e) is equal to 1.

e= \frac{v_{f2}-v_{f1} }{v_{o1} -v_{o2} }

1*(v₀₁ - v₀₂ )  = (vf₂ -vf₁)

(2.1 - 6 )  = (vf₂ -vf₁)

-3.9 =  (vf₂ -vf₁)

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9

vf₂ = vf₁ - 3.9 Equation (2)

We replace Equation (2) in the Equation (1)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)*( vf₁ - 3.9)

2.532 = (0.22)*vf₁ +(0.345)* (vf₁) -(0.345)( 3.9)

2.532 + 1.3455 = (0.565)*vf₁

3.8775 = (0.565)*vf₁

vf₁  = (3.8775) / (0.565)

vf₁  = 6.86 m/s, to the right

We replace vf₁  = 6.86 m/s in the Equation (2)

vf₂ =  6.86 - 3.9

vf₂ =  2.96 m/s, to the right

A person standing a certain distance from four identical loudspeakers is hearing a sound level intensity of 125 dB. What sound l
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}

Explanation:

From the question, using the expression:

125 \ dB = 10 \ log (\dfrac{I}{I_o})

where;

I_o = 10^{-12} \ W/m^2

I = 10^{12.5} \times 10^{-12} \ W/m^2

I = 3.162 \ W/m^2

This is a combined intensity of 4 speakers.

Thus, the intensity of 3 speakers = \dfrac{3.162\times 3}{4}

= 2.372 W/m²

Thus;

\beta = 10 \  log ( \dfrac{2.372}{10^{-12}} ) \ W/m^2

\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}

Why is radiation fog more likely near the center of an anticyclone than near the center of a cyclone?
Zigmanuir [339]
Radiation fog is the fog that is formed when the heat absorbed the Earth's surface is released into the atmosphere producing fog. This only occurs when the air is clear and calm. In the center of an anticyclone, the conditions of the air are clear and calm which is favorable for the formation of radiation fog. The center of cyclones, on the other hand, is turbulent and cloudy which prevents the formation of radiation fogs.
