Accelerating voltage<span> is the difference in potential between the filament and the anode,and it can be varied between 5 KeV and 30 KeV on the S-500 and between 2 KeV and 30 KeV on the S-450. As the </span>voltage<span> is increased, the electrons travel with higher velocity and are more energetic.</span>

Sam, whose mass is 60 Kg, is riding on a 5.0 kg sled initially traveling at 8.0 m/s. He
umka2103 [35]
<h3>Answer:  130 newtons</h3>

===============================================================

Explanation:

We'll need the acceleration first.

  • The initial speed (let's call that Vi) is 8.0 m/s
  • The final speed (Vf) is 0 m/s since Sam comes to a complete stop at the end.
  • This happens over a duration of t = 4.0 seconds

The acceleration is equal to the change in speed over change in time

a = acceleration

a = (change in speed)/(change in time)

a = (Vf - Vi)/(4 seconds)

a = (0 - 8.0)/4

a = -8/4

a = -2

The acceleration is -2 m/s^2, meaning that Sam slows down by 2 m/s every second. Negative accelerations are often associated with slowing down. The term "deceleration" can be used here.

Here's a further break down of Sam's speeds at the four points of interest

  • At 0 seconds, he's going 8 m/s
  • At the 1 second mark, he's slowing down to 8-2 = 6 m/s
  • At the 2 second mark, he's now at 6-2 = 4 m/s
  • At the 3 second mark, he's at 4-2 = 2 m/s
  • Finally, at the 4 second mark, he's at 2-2 = 0 m/s

Next, we'll apply Newton's Second Law of motion

F = m*a

where,

  • F = force applied
  • m = mass
  • a = acceleration

We just found the acceleration, and the mass is fairly easy as all we need to do is add Sam's mass with the sled's mass to get 60+5.0 = 65 kg

So the force applied must be:

F = m*a

F = 65*(-2)

F = -130 newtons

This force is negative to indicate it's pushing against the sled's momentum to slow Sam down.

The magnitude of this force is |F| = |-130| = 130 newtons

Illusion [34]

Answer:

True  b and c

Explanation:

In an RLC circuit the impedance is

         Z = \sqrt{[R^{2} + ( (wL)^{2} + (\frac{1}{wC})^{2} ]     }

examine the different phrases..

a) False. The maximum impedance is the value of the resistance  

b) True. Resonance occurs when  

              (wL)² + (1 / wC)² = 0

               w² = 1 / LC

c) True. In resonance the impedance is the resistive part and the power is maximum  

d) False. In resonance the inductive and capacitive part cancel each other out  

e) False. The impedance is always greater outside of resonance, but at the resonance point they are equal
