The short answer is that the displacement is equal tothe area under the curve in the velocity-time graph. The region under the curve in the first 4.0 s is a triangle with height 10.0 m/s and length 4.0 s, so its area - and hence the displacement - is

1/2 • (10.0 m/s) • (4.0 s) = 20.00 m

Another way to derive this: since velocity is linear over the first 4.0 s, that means acceleration is constant. Recall that average velocity is defined as

v (ave) = ∆x / ∆t

and under constant acceleration,

v (ave) = (v (final) + v (initial)) / 2

According to the plot, with ∆t = 4.0 s, we have v (initial) = 0 and v (final) = 10.0 m/s, so

∆x / (4.0 s) = (10.0 m/s) / 2

∆x = ((4.0 s) • (10.0 m/s)) / 2

∆x = 20.00 m

what happens to a circuits resistance, voltage, and current when you increase the diameter of the wire in the circuit?

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Option D.

Resistance (R) decreases

Voltage (V) is constant

Current (I) increases

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing an equation relating resistance and diameter of a wire. This is given below:

R = ρL/A ......... (1)

A = πr² (since the wire is circular in shape)

r = d/2

A = πr² = π(d/2)²

A = πd²/4

Substitute the value of A into equation 1

R = ρL/A

R = ρL ÷ A

R = ρL ÷ πd²/4

R = ρL × 4/πd²

R = 4ρL /πd²

Where:

R is the resistance of the wire.

ρ is the resistivity of the wire.

L is the length of the wire.

A is the cross sectional area of the wire.

r is the radius.

d is the diameter of the wire

From equation (1) above, we can say that the resistance (R) is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire. This implies that an increase in the diameter of the wire will result in a decrease of the resistance. Also, a decrease in the diameter of the wire will result in an increase in the resistance of the wire.

1. Since the diameter of the wire is increase, therefore, the resistance of the wire will decrease.

2. From ohm's law,

V = IR

Divide both side by I

R = V/I

Where:

R is the resistance

V is the voltage

I is the current

From the above equation, the resistance (R) is directly proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the current (I).

If we keep the voltage constant, this means that an increase in the resistance will lead to a decrease in the current. Also, a decrease in the resistance will lead to an increase in the current.

Since the resistance of the wire decrease, the current will increase.

From the illustrations made above, an increase in the diameter of the wire will lead to:

1. Decrease in resistance.

2. Voltage is constant.

3. Increase in current.

A small economy car (low mass) and a limousine (high mass) are pushed from rest across a parking lot, equal distances with equal

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.

Explanation:

K.E = 0.5*mv²

Where;

K.E is the kinetic Energy

M is the mass of an object

V is the velocity of the moving object

But F = m(v/t), from Newton's second law of motion

If equal forces were applied to the two cars, then the velocity of each car will be calculated as follows.

v = (Ft/m)

v² = (Ft/m)²

Substitute in the value of v² into Kinetic energy equation

K.E = 0.5*mv²

K.E = 0.5*m(Ft/m)² = (0.5*F²t²)/m

Also assuming equal distance, equal force and assuming equal time for both cars.

The above equation will reduce to, K.E = k/m

Where k = 0.5*F²t², which is equal in both cars.

Thus, Kinetic energy will depend only on the mass of each car.

From the above expression, Kinetic Energy received by each car is inversely proportional to the mass of the car.

A small economy car (low mass) will receive more kinetic energy while a limousine (high mass) car will receive less kinetic energy.

Therefore, the car that receives more kinetic energy is the small economy car.
