In a collision, there is a force on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects; the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. For collisions between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration.
Answer:
Explanation:
Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m
Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V
Electric field = Potential diff applied / d
= 5 x 10³ / 2 x 10⁻³
= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m
This is less than breakdown strength for air 3.0×10⁶ V/m
b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so
5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )
d = 5 x 10³ / 3.0×10⁶
= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m
= 1.67 mm.
Answer:
Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of the sled (m) = 9 kg
Acceleration of the sled (a) = 2.10 m/s
²
Spring constant (k) = 115 N/m
Computation:
Tension force in the spring (T) = ma
Tension force in the spring (T) = 9 × 2.10
Tension force in the spring (T) = 18.9 N
Tension force in the spring = Spring constant (k) × Stretch in the spring
18.9 N = 115 N × Stretch in the spring
Stretch in the spring = 18.9 / 115
Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)
Answer:
D)
Explanation:
The Period-Luminosity relationship tells us that luminosity increases with the period, and of course the more luminosity a star has the more far away they can be seen, so from this we know that:
A) False since lower luminosities can be observed when they are close.
B) False since longer periods means higher luminosities
C) False since lower luminosities can be observed when they are close.
D) True: Variable stars with shorter periods have lower luminosities, so they can only be observed when they are close.
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Lets assume our positive direction to the right (this reasoning works for any direction). A negative velocity would then be then directed to the left. If it varies as such that it aproaches to zero, it means that the variation is directed to the right, and that is where the direction of the acceleration must be pointing. In other words, its losing its velocity, so the acceleration must point opposite to the velocity. Then it means the acceleration is positive.
