Answer:

mv-mu

Explanation:

momentum is the mass by velocity of an object. change in momentum means there was an initial momentum and a final momentum. V represents the final momentum and U represents the initial momentum. So minus the momentum values. (Final momentum (mv) minis initial momentum (mu)

Which item is not considered electromagnetic energy?

suter [353]

Sound waves are known to be the one that's not considered as a type of electromagnetic energy. As for microwaves and x-rays, they tend to share the same frequencies that can be considered as electromagnetic, and sound waves have a different frequency than them.

The core of a 400 Hz aircraft transformer has a net cross-sectional area of 13 cm2. The maximum flux density is 0.9 T, and there

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

32.76 Volt

Explanation:

frequency, f = 400 Hz

Area of crossection, A = 13 cm²

Maximum flux density, B = 0.9 tesla

Number of turns in secondary coil, N = 70

Let the maximum induced voltage is e.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the induced emf is equal to the rate of change of magnetic flux.

e = dФ/dt

$e=\frac{NBA}{t}$

Time is defined as the reciprocal of frequency.

So, e = N B A f

e = 70 x 0.9 x 13 x 10^-4 x 400

e = 32.76 volt

Natalie accelerate her skateboard along a straight path from 0 m/s to 4.0 m/s in 2.5 s. find her average acceleration

Vikentia [17]

Acceleration=(speed end - speed start)/ time
Data:
speed end=4 m/s
speed start=0 m/s
time=2.5 s

acceleration=(4 m/s - 0 m/s)/2.5 s=1.6 m/s²

Answer: the acceleration would be 1.6 m/s²

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

Answer:

1. Largest force: C; smallest force: B; 2. ratio = 9:1

Explanation:

The formula for the force exerted between two charges is

$F=K\dfrac{ q_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

where K is the Coulomb constant.

q₁ and q₂ are also identical and constant, so Kq₁q₂ is also constant.

For simplicity, let's combine Kq₁q₂ into a single constant, k.

Then, we can write

$F=\dfrac{k}{r^{2}}$

1. Net force on each particle

Let's

Call the distance between adjacent charges d.
Remember that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.

Define forces exerted to the right as positive and those to the left as negative.

(a) Force on A

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{A} & = & F_{B} + F_{C} + F_{D}\\& = & -\dfrac{k}{d^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} +\dfrac{k}{(3d)^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(-1 - \dfrac{1}{4} + \dfrac{1}{9} \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{-36 - 9 + 4}{36} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{-\dfrac{41}{36} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(b) Force on B

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{B} & = & F_{A} + F_{C} + F_{D}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{1}{4} \right)\\\\& = &\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{4} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(C) Force on C

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{C} & = & F_{A} + F_{B} + F_{D}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{d^{2}} + \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left( \dfrac{1}{4} +1 + 1 \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{1 + 4 + 4}{4} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{\dfrac{9}{4} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(d) Force on D

$\begin{array}{rcl}F_{D} & = & F_{A} + F_{B} + F_{C}\\& = & -\dfrac{k}{(3d)^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{(2d)^{2}} - \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left( -\dfrac{1}{9} - \dfrac{1}{4} -1 \right)\\\\& = & \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}\left(\dfrac{-4 - 9 -36}{36} \right)\\\\& = & \mathbf{-\dfrac{49}{36} \dfrac{k}{d^{2}}}\\\\\end{array}$

(e) Relative net forces

In comparing net forces, we are interested in their magnitude, not their direction (sign), so we use their absolute values.

$F_{A} : F_{B} : F_{C} : F_{D} = \dfrac{41}{36} : \dfrac{1}{4} : \dfrac{9}{4} : \dfrac{49}{36}\ = 41 : 9 : 81 : 49\\\\\text{C experiences the largest net force.}\\\text{B experiences the smallest net force.}\\$
