A parachute on a racing dragster opens and changes the speed of the car from 93 m/s to 45 m/s in a period of 5.3 seconds. What i

Answer:

-9.06\:\mathrm{m/s^2}

Explanation:

We can use the following kinematics equation to solve for acceleration:

v_f=v_f+at.

Solving for a:

45=93+5.3a,\\-48=5.3a,\\a\approx \boxed{-9.06\mathrm{m/s^2}}

*Note: Since acceleration is a vector quantity, it has both magnitude and direction. The negative sign implies that the acceleration is in the opposite direction of the racing dragster's movement.

Consider the following distribution of objects: a 2.00-kg object with its center of gravity at (0, 0) m, a 2.20-kg object at (0,
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

Explanation:

The concept of center of gravity is of great importance since in this all external forces are considered applied, it is defined by

               x_cm = 1 /M   ∑ x_{i} m_{i}

               y_cm = 1 /M   ∑ y_{i} mi

Where M is the total mass of the body, mi is the mass of each element

give us the mass and position of this masses

body 1

m1 = 2.00 ka

x1 = 0 me

y1 = 0 me

body 2

m2 = 2.20 kg

x2 = 0m

y2 = 5 m

body 3

m3 = 3.4 kg

x3 = 2.00 m

y3 = 0

body 4

m4 = 6 kg

    x4=?

   y4=?

mass center position

x_cm = 0

y_cm = 0

let's apply to the equations of the initial part

X axis

    M = 2.00 + 2.20 + 3.40

    M = 7.6 kg

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.2 0 + 3.4 2 + 6 x4)

     x4 = -6.8 / 6

     x4 = -1,133 m

Axis y

    0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.20 5 +3.4 0 + 6 y4)

    y4 = -11/6

    y4 = -1.83 m

body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)

A magnetic field is uniform over a flat, horizontal circular region with a radius of 1.50 mm, and the field varies with time. In
atroni [7]

Answer:

The average induced emf around the border of the circular region is 8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of circular region, r = 1.5 mm

Initial magnetic field, B = 0

Final magnetic field, B' = 1.5 T

The magnetic field is pointing upward when viewed from above, perpendicular to the circular plane in a time of 125 ms. We need to find the average induced emf around the border of the circular region. It is given by the rate of change of magnetic flux as :

\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=A\dfrac{-d(B'-B)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=\pi (1.5\times 10^{-3})^2\times \dfrac{1.5}{0.125}\\\\\epsilon=8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V

So, the average induced emf around the border of the circular region is 8.48\times 10^{-5}\ V.

Is how high or low sound is
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

How high the sound or how low the sound is depending on the pitch of the sound which in this case the frequencies of the sound. The higher of the frequencies , the higher of the pitch but it has the shortest length of wave (λ). That's why AM radio have a longer range but bad audio quality than FM radio that have better audio quality with shorter range.
