Answer:

2500miles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time of travel = 5hrs

Average speed = 500miles/hr

Unknown:

Distance between the two cities = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must understand that speed is the distance covered with time.

So;

Distance = speed x time

Distance = 500 x 5 = 2500miles

An athlete stretches a spring an extra 40.0 cm beyond its initial length. How much energy has he transferred to the spring, if t

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

extension= 40cm

Spring constant K= 52.9N/cm

Step two:

Required

the Kinetic Energy KE

the expression to find the kinetic energy is

KE= 1/2ke^2

substituting our data we have

KE= 1/2*52.9*40^2

KE=0.5*52.9*1600

KE= 42320Joules

<u>The answer is b) 4230 J </u>

The first and second coils have the same length, and the third and fourth coils have the same length. They differ only in the cr

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

$\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}$

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length and is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, this dependence is given by:

$R=\frac{\rho L}{A}$

$\rho$ is the material's resistance, L is the legth and A is the cross-sectional area.

For the first and second coils, we have:

$R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A_1}\\R_2=\frac{\rho L}{A_2}\\\rho L=R_1A_1\\\rho L=R_2A_2\\R_1A_1=R_2A_2\\\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}$

For the third and fourth coils, we have:

$R_3=\frac{\rho L'}{A_3}\\R_4=\frac{\rho L'}{A_4}\\\rho L'=R_3A_3\\\rho L'=R_4A_4\\R_3A_3=R_4A_4\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}$

How do you test hydrogen gas

Vanyuwa [196]

Explanation:

A splint is lit and held near the opening of the tube, then the stopper is removed to expose the splint to the gas. If the gas is flammable, the mixture ignites. This test is most commonly used to identify hydrogen, which extinguishes with a distinctive 'squeaky pop' sound.
