Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)
<span>soo, t = 1 sec</span>

A passenger on a stopped bus notices that rain is falling vertically just outside the window. When the bus moves with constant v

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1)0.325

2) $6.17\ \rm m/s$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

The angle that falling raindrops make with the vertical= $18^\circ$

Let $V_R$ be the velocity of the raindrops and $V_B$ be the velocity of the bus.

$\dfrac{V_R}{V_B}=\tan 18^\circ\\\dfrac{V_R}{V_B}=0.315\\$

2)Speed of the raindrops $=0.315\times 19$

$=6.17\ \rm m/s$

Velocity is:

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The Quantity of theory of money states:

M * V = P * Y

Where,

M = Money supply

V = Velocity of money exchange

P = The price level

Y = Real GDP

- By re-arranging the formula and solving for "V" we have:

V = P*Y / M

- The expression on right hand side increases if exchange of dollars increases.

What is the correct order of increasing energy?

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Microwaves, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, γ-rays

Explanation:

The energy of any wave is given by :

$E=h\nu$

h = Planck's constant

$\nu$ is the frequency of wave

It is clear that the energy of any wave is directly proportional to its frequency. Gamma rays have maximum frequency. Out of given options microwaves have least frequency.

So, the increasing order of energy is "microwaves, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, γ-rays". Hence, the correct option is (5).

Consider three identical electric bulbs of power P. Two of bulbs are connected in series and the third one is connected in paral

Tamiku [17]

Answer: 3P/2

Explanation: Let the resistance of the bulbs be R.

now lets consider a Voltage V is supplied to the parallel circuit such that

$P=VI=V^2/R$

V=IR

both single bulb( bulb 3) and the two bulbs ( bulb 1 and bulb 2) are provided the same Voltage

( as the voltage remains same in parallel circuit)

we can calculate the Current across both circuits

At Bulb 3

Current 1=V/R

Power1=Voltage * Current1

Power1=V*V/R

Power1=P

At Bulb 1 and Bulb 2

Total Resistance= R+R=2R

$Current2=\frac{V}{2R}$

Power2=Voltage * Current2

$Power2=V*\frac{V}{2R} \\Power2=\frac{V^2}{2R} \\Power2=P/2$

$TotalPower=Power1+Power2\\TotalPower=P+P/2\\TotalPower=\frac{3P}{2}$
