At an instant a traffic light turns green an automobile that has been waiting at an intersection of the road accelerates with 5m

joja [24]

1) The car overtakes the truck at a distance of 160 m far from the intersection.

2) The velocity of the car is 40 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The car is travelling with a constant acceleration starting from rest, so its position at time t (measured taking the intersection as the origin) is given by

$x_c(t) = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

$a=5 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

t is the time

On the other hand, the truck is travelling at a constant velocity, therefore its position at time t is given by

$x_t(t) = vt$

where

v = 20 m/s is the velocity of the truck

t is the time

The car overtakes the truck when the two positions are the same, so when

$x_c(t) = x_t(t)\\\frac{1}{2}at^2 = vt\\t=\frac{2v}{a}=\frac{2(20)}{5}=8 s$

So, after a time of 8 seconds. Therefore, the distance covered by the car during this time is

$x_c(8) = \frac{1}{2}(5)(8)^2=160 m$

So, the car overtakes the truck 160 m far from the intersection.

2)

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so the velocity of the car at time t is given by the suvat equation

$v=u+at$

where

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

For the car in this problem, we have:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

$a=5 m/s^2$

And we know that the car overtakes the truck when

t = 8 s

Substituting into the equation,

$v=0+(5)(8)=40 m/s$

An alternating source drives a series RLC circuit with an emf amplitude of 6.04 V, at a phase angle of +30.3°. When the potentia

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

-8.56V

Explanation:

Our values are given by,

e = 6.04 V

Φ = 30.3

VC = 5.32

We can calculate the voltage across the circuit with the emf formula, that is,

$e(t) = e* sin(wt)$

$e(t) = 6.04 * sin(Φ + π)$

$e(t) = 6.04 * sin(32.5 + 180)$

$e(t) = -3.245 V$

Now, Using Kirchoff Voltage Law,

$e(t) - VR- VL - VC = 0$

$-3.24 - 0 - VL - 5.32 = 0$

Finally we have the potential difference across the inductor.

$VL = - 8.56 v$

Sound travels through air at 343 m/s,

sasho [114]

The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.

Distance = Velocity × Time.

So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.

As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.

Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m

And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.

Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.

Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.

Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m

So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
