Answer:

-2.83 m/s²

Explanation:

  • Initial velocity (u) = 34 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 17 m/s
  • Time taken (t) = 6 seconds

❖ Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with time.

→ a = (v - u)/t

  • v denotes final velocity
  • a denotes acceleration
  • u denotes initial velocity
  • t denotes time

→ a = (17 - 34)/6 m/s²

→ a = -17/6 m/s²

<h3>→ Acceleration = -2.83 m/s²</h3>

(Minus sign implies that the velocity is decreasing.)

A single circular loop of wire of radius 0.75 m carries a constant current of 3.0 A. The loop may be rotated about an axis that
NISA [10]

Answer:

B = 0.8 T

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of circular loop, r = 0.75 m

Current in the loop, I = 3 A

The loop may be rotated about an axis that passes through the center and lies in the plane of the loop.

When the orientation of the normal to the loop with respect to the direction of the magnetic field is 25°, the torque on the coil is 1.8 Nm.

We need to find the magnitude of the uniform magnetic field exerting this torque on the loop. Torque acting on the loop is given by :

\tau=NIAB\sin\theta

B is magnetic field

B=\dfrac{\tau}{NIA\sin\theta}\\\\B=\dfrac{1.8}{1\times \pi \times (0.75)^2\times 3\times \sin(25)}\\\\B=0.8\ T

So, the magnitude of the uniform magnetic field exerting this torque on the loop is 0.8 T.

A skier starts from rest down a slope 500.0 M long, the skier accelerates at a constant rate of 2.00 m/s/s, what's the velocity
nevsk [136]
We can use the kinematic equation
(v_f)^2 = (v_i)^2 + 2*a*d
where Vf is what we are looking for
Vi is 0 since we start from rest
a is acceleration
and d is the distance

we get
(Vf)^2 = (0)^2 + 2*(2)*(500)
(Vf)^2 = 2000
Vf = about 44.721
or 44.7 m/s   [if you are rounding this by significant figures]

1. Was your hypothesis correct? Why or why not?
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

1. Upon analysis of the results, a hypothesis can be rejected or modified, but it can never be proven to be correct 100 percent of the time. For example, relativity has been tested many times, so it is generally accepted as true, but there could be an instance, which has not been encountered, where it is not true.

2.Mass is the amount of matter in a body, normally measured in grams or kilograms etc. Weight is a force that pulls on a mass and is measured in Newtons. So on Earth, Weight would be your (mass x acceleration( 9.8 ) . Density, there are lots of kinds of density I guess, but the one you are talking about is density = mass / volume. Density basically means how much mass is occupied in a specific volume or space. Different materials of the same size may have different masses because of its density. Density in this case is measured in kg / m^3 or kg / L or g / m^3 etc where the numerator is a unit of mass and the denominator a unit of volume.

3.The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.

4.  An object will float if the gravitational (downward) force is less than the buoyancy (upward) force. So, in other words, an object will float if it weighs less than the amount of water it displaces. This explains why a rock will sink while a huge boat will float.

The force on the spring is F0 and it stores elastic potential energy PEs0. If the spring displacement is tripled to 3x0, determi
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let initial extension in the spring= x₀

Force on the spring = F₀

Let spring constant = k

Fo = k x₀

Fn = 3k x₀

Fn /Fo = 3

PEs0 ( ORIGINAL)  =1/2 k x₀²

PEsn ( NEW)  =1/2 k (3x₀)²

PEsn / PEs0 = 9

Zoe is shown two mystery boxes that are both 8,000cm3. Her teacher tells her that one mystery box is filled with rocks and the o
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The box of rocks will have depression which can be seen without touching the box.

Explanation:

The density of rocks is very large as compared with napkins. So, the weight of the rocks will be much more greater than that of napkins.

As both boxes have same volume the heavier box will show depression on the lower surface as compared to the lighter box. So, the box of rocks will have depression which can be seen without touching the box.
