Answer:

a = 4/9  m/s^2  

Explanation:

We use the kinematics formula for distance (d) covered i accelerated motion:

d = vi t + (1/2) a t^2

and replace d= 2,  t = 3 and vi = 0 as per the information given:

2 = (1/2) a (3)^2

2 = (1/2) a (9)

a = 4 / 9 m/s^2

A uniform electric field is created by two parallel plates separated by a distance of 0.04 m. What is the magnitude of the elect
FromTheMoon [43]

Complete question:

A uniform electric field is created by two parallel plates separated by a

distance of 0.04 m. What is the magnitude of the electric field established

between the plates if the potential of the first plate is +40V and the second

one is -40V?

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is 2,000 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between two parallel plates, d = 0.04 m

potential between first and second plate, = +40V and -40V respectively

The magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is calculated as;

E = ΔV / d

where;

ΔV is change in potential between two parallel plates;

d is the distance between the plates

ΔV = V₁ -V₂

ΔV = 40 - (-40)

ΔV = 40 + 40

ΔV = 80 V

E = ΔV / d

E = 80 / 0.04

E = 2,000 V/m

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field established between the plates is 2,000 V/m

Why does the gravitational field strength increase with latitude
otez555 [7]
The second major reason for the difference in gravity at differentlatitudes is that the Earth's equatorial bulge (itself also caused by centrifugalforce from rotation) causes objects at the Equator to be farther from the planet's centre than objects at the poles.

video for A door 1 m wide, of mass 15 kg, is hinged at one side so that it can rotate without friction about a vertical axis. It
natka813 [3]

Answer:

\omega_f = 0.4\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

width of door dimension  = 1 m

mass of door = 15 Kg

mass of bullet = 10 g = 0.001 Kg

speed of bullet = 400 m/s

I_{total} =I_{door} + I_{bullet}

I_{total} =\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2

a) from conservation of angular momentum  

L_i = L_f  

mv\dfrac{W}{2} = I_{total}\omega_f  

mv\dfrac{W}{2}= (\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2)\omega_f

\omega_f= \dfrac{mv\dfrac{W}{2}}{\dfrac{1}{3}MW^2 + m(\dfrac{W}{2})^2}

\omega_f= \dfrac{\dfrac{mv}{2}}{\dfrac{MW }{3}+(\dfrac{mW}{4})}

\omega_f= \dfrac{\dfrac{0.01\times 400}{2}}{\dfrac{15\times 1 }{3}+(\dfrac{0.01\times 1}{4})}

\omega_f = 0.4\ rad/s

An egg is thrown upward with a velocity of 4.5 m/s. How long will it take to reach it's maximum height?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.45 seconds

Explanation:

Letting the value of g = 10 m/s/s

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (since the egg will come to rest at the maximum height)

initial velocity(u) = 4.5 m/s

acceleration = -10 m/s/s (since the gravity is acting against the egg)

time = t seconds

From the first equation of motion:

<em>v = u + at</em>

<em>0 = 4.5 + (-10)t</em>

<em>t = -4.5 / -10</em>

t = 0.45 seconds
