Answer:

-6.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 30.5 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 4.5 s

Find: a

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 m/s − 30.5 m/s) / 4.5 s

a = -6.8 m/s²

A 3250 N car is pushed a distance of 35 m the power was 11375 J, how long did it take?
irakobra [83]

Answer:

10.8s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force on the car  = 3250N

Distance  = 35m

Power  = 11375W

Unknown:

Time taken = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

 Power is the rate at which work is done

         Power = \frac{work done }{time}  

  Work done  = force x distance  = 3250 x 35  = 123200J

Now;

          11375  = \frac{123200}{t}  

           11375t  = 123200  

                   t  = 10.8s

A 0.106-A current is charging a capacitor that has square plates 6.00 cm on each side. The plate separation is 4.00 mm. (a) Find
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The time rate of change of flux is 1.34 \times 10^{10} \frac{V}{s}

Explanation:

Given :

Current I = 0.106 A

Area of plate A = 36 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}

Plate separation d = 4 \times 10^{-3} m

(A)

First find the capacitance of capacitor,

   C = \frac{\epsilon _{o} A }{d}

Where \epsilon _{o} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}

   C = \frac{8.85 \times 10^{-12 } \times 36 \times 10^{-4}  }{4 \times 10^{-3} }

   C = 7.9 \times 10^{-12} F

But   C = \frac{Q}{V}

Where Q = It

  C = \frac{It}{V}

  V = \frac{It}{C}

Now differentiate above equation wrt. time,

  \frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{I}{C}

       = \frac{0.106}{7.9 \times 10^{-12} }

       = 1.34 \times 10^{10} \frac{V}{s}

Therefore, the time rate of change of flux is 1.34 \times 10^{10} \frac{V}{s}

Two identical copper blocks are connected by a weightless, unstretchable cord through a frictionless pulley at the top of a thin
likoan [24]

Answer:

13.6 N

Explanation:

Since one side of the wedge is vertical and the wedge makes and angle of 33 with the horizontal, the angle between the weight of the copper block on the incline and the incline is thus 90 - 33 = 57.

Let M be the mass of the block that hangs, m be the mass of the block on the incline and T be the tension in the weightless unstretchable cord.

We assume the motion is downwards in the direction of the hanging block, M.

We now write equations of motion for each block.

So

Mg - T = Ma    (1) and T - mgcos57 - F = ma where F is the frictional force on the block on the incline and a is their acceleration.

Now, since both blocks do not move, a = 0.

So, Mg - T = M(0) = 0     and T - mgcos57 - F = m(0) = 0

Mg - T = 0    (3) and T - mgcos57 - F = 0 (4)

From (3), T = Mg

Substituting T into (4), we have

T - mgcos57 - F = 0

Mg - mgcos57 - F = 0

So, Mg - mgcos57 = F  

F = Mg - mgcos57

F = (M - mcos57)g

Since g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and M = 2.94 kg and m = 2.85 kg.

We find F, thus

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kgcos57)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kg × 0.5446)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 1.552 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = (1.388 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = 13.6024 kgm/s²

F ≅ 13.6 N

Por una resistencia de 10 Ω fluyen 5A. ¿Cuál será la diferencia de potencial que se le debe aplicar a la resistencia?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

V = 50 volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Resistance, R = 10 ohms

Current, I = 5 A

We need to find the potential difference across the circuit. We know that,

V = IR

Put all the values,

V = 5 × 10

V = 50 volts

Hence, the potential difference is equal to 50 volts.
