Answer:

0.2885 m/s²

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is given as;

a_c=v^2/r

Given that;

speed = v = 1.5m/s

radius = r = 7.8

a_c=v^2/r\\\\\\a_c=1.5^2/7.8\\\\\\a_c=0.2885m/s^{2}

the electric current in a wire is 1.5 A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2 s?​
34kurt

Answer:

The quantity of electrons that flows past a given point is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current (I) is the ratio of the quantity of charges (Q) that flows through a point to the time taken (t).

i.e            I = \frac{Q}{t}

It is measured in Ampere's by the use of an ammeter in the laboratory. The quantity of charge that flow through a given point is measured in Coulombs, while time is measured in seconds.

Given that;     I = 1.5A and t = 2s, find Q.

                          Q = It

                             = 1.5 × 2

                             = 3.0 C

The quantity of electrons that flows past a given point is 3.0 C.

A ball is thrown from ground level so as to just clear wall 4m height at distance 4m from wall and falls 14 m from wall . Veloci
kolbaska11 [484]
Ok, this is a 2d kinematics problem,  the falls 14 m part is confusing, I think it means in the x direction, but you don't need it anyway.

If we know it goes 4m into the air, we know  d = 4m (height of wall), we also know the acceleration a=-9.8m/s^2 (because gravity) and that the vertical velocity when it just clears the wall will be 0 m/s, which we'll call our final velocity (Vf). Using Vf^2 = Vi^2 +2a*d, we can solve this for Vi and drop Vf because it's zero to get: Vi = sqrt(-2ad), plug in numbers (don't forget a is negative) and you get 8.85 m/s in the vertical direction. The x-direction velocity requires that we solve the y-direction for time, using Vf= Vi + at, we solve for t, getting t= -Vi/a, plug in numbers t= -8.85/-9.8 = 0.9 s. Now we can use the simple v = d/t (because x-direction has no acceleration (a=0)), and plug in the distance to the wall and the time it takes to get there v = (4/.9) = 4.444 m/s, this is the velocity in the x direction, we use Pythagoras' theorem to find the total velocity, Vtotal = sqrt(Vx^2 + Vy^2), so Vtotal = sqrt(8.85^2+4.444^2) = 9.9m/s. Yay physics!
