5 0

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the mass of the wrench would be 0 due to it being in space and has no gravitational pull to weight it down. And since acceleration is defined as the rate and change of velocity with no respect of time and the wrench is moving at a constant velocity, that means the velocity is 0. and since F = m*a it would be F = 0 * 0 = 0 N

An elastic conducting material is stretched into a circular loop of 11.2 cm radius. It is placed with its plane perpendicular to
anygoal [31]

Answer:

0.426 volts

Explanation:

It is given that,

The radius of a circular loop, r = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m

An elastic conducting material is stretched into a circular loop.

It is placed with its plane perpendicular to a uniform 0.880 T magnetic field.

The radius of the loop starts to shrink at an instantaneous rate of 68.8 cm/s, dr/dt = 0.688 m/s

We need to find the emf induced in the loop at that instant.

\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(BA)\\\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(\pi r^2 B)\\\\=\pi B\dfrac{d}{dt}(r^2)\\\\=2\pi B r\dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\=2\pi \times 0.88\times 0.112\times 0.688\\\\=0.426\ V

So, the magnitude of induced emf is 0.426 volts.

A transverse wave on a rope is given by y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(π[(0.400cm−1)x+(250s−1)t]). part a part complete find the amplitude
Pani-rosa [81]
The amplitude of a wave corresponds to its maximum oscillation of the wave itself. 
In our problem, the equation of the wave is
y(x,t)= (0.750cm)cos(\pi [(0.400cm-1)x+(250s-1)t])
We can see that the maximum value of y(x,t) is reached when the cosine is equal to 1. When this condition occurs,
y(x,t)=0.750 cm
and therefore this value corresponds to the amplitude of the wave.

A jet with mass m = 90000.0 kg jet accelerates down the runway for takeoff at 1.6 m/s2.
leva [86]
This question requires the use of the equation of motion:
v = u + at [v is final velocity (0), u is initial velocity (24), a is acceleration, t is time (13)]
to calculate the acceleration. This can then be multiplied by the mass of the plane to obtain the net force via:
F = ma (F is force, m is mass, a is acceleration)
First, we calculate the acceleration:
0 = 24 + 13(a)
a = -24/13 m/s^2
The force is then:
F = 90000 * (-24/13)
F = -1.66*10^5 Newtons
The negative sign indicates that the force and acceleration are in the opposite direction as the velocity (since we took velocity to be positive)
