An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration

1 answer:

Answer:

1.4m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the total distance covered divided by the total time taken.

Average velocity = $\frac{total distance }{time }$

Total time taken = 5s + 6s = 11s

The first distance covered = velocity x time = 1.4 x 5 = 7m

second distance covered = velocity x time = 1.4 x 6 = 8.4m

So;

Average velocity = $\frac{7 + 8.4}{11}$ = 1.4m/s

A school bus has a mass (including the driver and passengers) of 1.64 times 10^4 kg and is driving north at a speed of 15.2 km/h

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of bus along with travelers travelling in North direction is $m_1=1.6\times 10^4 kg$

speed of bus towards North $v_1=15.2 km/h\approx 4.22\ m/s$

mass of bus travelling in South direction is $m_2=1.578\times 10^4 kg$

speed of bus $v_2=12.2 km/h\approx 3.38\ m/s$

mass of each Passenger in south moving bus $m_0=64.8 kg$

Momentum of North moving bus

$P_1=m_1\times v_1$

$P_1=1.6\times 10^4\times 4.22$

$P_1=6.768\times 10^4 kg-m/s$

Momentum with south moving bus

$P_2=m_2\times v_2+n\cdot m_0\times v_2$

$P_2=(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38$

For total momentum to be towards south

$P_2-P_1$ should be greater than 0

thus for least value of n

$P_2=P_1$

$(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38=6.768\times 10^4$

$1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8=2.0023\times 10^4$

$n=\frac{4243.6686}{64.8}=65.48\approx 66$

NASA scientists suggest using rotating cylindrical spacecraft to replicate gravity while in a weightless environment. Consider s

dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

diameter of spacecraft $d=148\ m$

radius $r=74\ m$

Force of gravity $F_g$ =mg

where m =mass of object

g=acceleration due to gravity on earth

Suppose v is the speed at which spacecraft is rotating so a net centripetal acceleration is acting on spacecraft which is given by

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_c=F_g$

$\frac{mv^2}{r}=mg$

$\frac{v^2}{r}=g$

$v=\sqrt{gr}$

$v=\sqrt{1450.4}$

$v=38.08\ m/s$

What is the principle of potentiometer?

kupik [55]

Answer:

The principle of a potentiometer is that the potential dropped across a segment of a wire of uniform cross-section carrying a constant current is directly proportional to its length. The potentiometer is a simple device used to measure the electrical potentials (or compare the e.m.f of a cell).
