Answer:

The answer is "5 \ \frac{m}{s} \ west"

Explanation:

\to \vec{V_1} = (25 \frac{m}{s}) (\hat{-i})\\\\\to  \vec{V_2} = (20 \frac{m}{s}) (\hat{-i})\\\\

velocity of car | respect to car :

\to \vec{V_{12}} = \vec{V_1} - \vec{V_2}\\\\

          =\vec{-25} \hat{i}+ \vec{20} \hat{i}\\\\= 5 \ \frac{m}{s} \ west

A small hot-air balloon is filled with 1.01×106 l of air (d = 1.20 g/l). as the air in the balloon is heated, it expands to 1.10
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>Volume of air in the balloon 1.01 x 10^6 L
 Density of air is 1.20 g/l
 Mass = Density X Volume

 So mass of the air in the Balloon= ( 1.01 x 10^6) X 1.20 = 1.212 x 10^6 g
 As the air is heated, the volume of air in the balloon expands to 1.10x 10^6 L Density= Mass/ voume So the Density of heated air = 1.212 x 10^6/ 1.10x 10^6 = 1.101 g/l The answer is 1.101 g/l.</span>

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from 0 to 5.40 m/s
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) 378Ns

b) 477.27N

Explanation:

Impulse is the defined as the product of the applied force and time taken. This is expressed according to the formula

I = Ft = m(v-u)

m is the mass = 70kg

v is the final velocity = 5.4m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

Get the impulse

I = m(v-u)

I = 70(5.4-0)

I = 70(5.4)

I = 378Ns

b) Average total force is expressed as

F = ma (Newton's second law)

F = m(v-u)/t

F = 378/0.792

F = 477.27N

Hence the average total force experienced by a 70.0-kg passenger in the car during the time the car accelerates is 477.27N

An orbiting satellite can become charged by the photoelectric effect when sunlight ejects electrons from its outer surface. Sate
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

Explanation:

Given data

Φ = 5.32 eV

to find out

the longest wavelength

solution

we know that

hf = k(maximum) +Ф   ...............1

here we consider k(maximum ) will be zero because photon wavelength max when low photon energy

so hf = 0

and hc/ λ = +Ф

so λ = hc/Ф  ................2

now put value hc = 1240 ev nm and Φ = 5.32 eV

so hc = 1240 / 5.32

hc = 233 nm

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

A body is placed on a rough inclined plane. Why does the frictional force decrease with the increase of angle of inclination
kondor19780726 [428]
The frictional force is directly proportional to the force that is perpendicular on the surface.

When the body is placed on a horizontal level with zero inclination, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force which always pulls the body down. The gravitational force, in this case, is the perpendicular force to the surface. Accordingly, this entire force is used to generate friction

Now as the inclination of the surface increases, the gravitational force is no longer the perpendicular force of the body, its value decreases, which means only a part is used to generate frictional force. Consequently, frictional force decreases.

When the inclination reaches 90 degrees, the gravitational force does not act along the normal and accordingly, no friction force is generated.
