Answer:

Negative acceleration

Explanation:

Let us assume a vehicle is moving with a constant velocity u and then it comes to a sudden stop.

The initial velocity of the vehicle is u and finally it comes to rest, it means final velocity is 0.

As we know that,

Acceleration is equal to change in velocity divided by time taken.

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\\text{Put v=0}\\\\a=\dfrac{-u}{t}

We can see that the value of acceleration is negative. Hence, it leads to negative acceleration.

Claim 2: Molecules speed up when they get energy from other molecules and slow down when they give energy to other molecules.
Energy can’t be destroyed (stated in claim 1) so claim 2 is more than likely to be correct

In an RC circuit, what fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The  fraction fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for 3.0 time constants is  

      k  = 0.903

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The time  constant  \tau  =  3

The potential across the capacitor can be mathematically represented as

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- \tau})

Where V_o is the voltage of the capacitor when it is fully charged

    So   at  \tau  =  3

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- 3})

     V  =  0.950213 V_o

   Generally energy stored in a capacitor is mathematically represented as

             E = \frac{1}{2 } * C  * V ^2

In this equation the energy stored is directly proportional to the the square of the potential across the capacitor

Now  since capacitance is  constant  at  \tau  =  3

        The  energy stored can be evaluated at as

         V^2 =  (0.950213 V_o )^2

       V^2 =  0.903  V_o ^2

Hence the fraction of the energy stored in an initially uncharged capacitor is  

      k  = 0.903

the cross section area of a hole is 725cm^2. Given that the area of a circle is A=3.14r^2 , find the radius of the hole.
asambeis [7]
The\ area\ of\ a\ circle\ =  \pi r^2 \\ 725\ cm^2 =  3.14r^2 \\
230.57 cm^2 = r^2 \\ \sqrt{230.57\ cm^2} = r \\ \boxed{r = 15.18\  cm}

A train whistle has a sound intensity level of 70. dB, and a library has a sound intensity level of about 40. dB. How many times
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The sound intensity of train is 1000 times greater than that of the library.

Explanation:

We have expression for sound intensity level,

            L=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I}{I_0}\right )

A train whistle has a sound intensity level of 70 dB

We have

           70=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )

A library has a sound intensity level of about 40 dB

We also have

           40=10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )

Dividing both equations

           \frac{70}{40}=\frac{10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )}{10log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )}\\\\\frac{7}{4}=\frac{log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_1}{I_0}\right )}{log_{10}\left ( \frac{I_2}{I_0}\right )}\\\\10^7\frac{I_2}{I_0}=10^4\frac{I_1}{I_0}\\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2}=10^3=1000

The sound intensity of train is 1000 times greater than that of the library.
