Answer:

a) 15.78 mi/h/s

b) 7.105 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) It is given that speed changes from 0 to 60 miles per hour (mph)

Acceleration is equal to change in speed divided by time

a = \frac{60-0}{3.8} \\a = 15.78 mi/h/s

b)

1 mile/h = 0.45 m/s

Acceleration in m/s^2

15.78 * 0.45  = 7.105 m/s^2

Answer:

a)   I = 1,894 10¹⁰ W / m², b)  E = 1.376 10⁵ N / C

Explanation:

a) intensity is defined as energy per unit area per unit time

          I = P / A

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         P = 10 mW = 10 10⁻³ W

         d = 0.82 μm = 0.82 10⁻⁶ m

the laser area is

         A =π r² = π d²/4

         A =π (0.82 10⁻⁶)²/4

         A = 5.28 10⁻¹³ m²

we calculate

          I = \frac{10 \ 10^{-3}}{5.28 \ 10^{-13}}

          I = 1,894 10¹⁰ W / m²

b) average intensity and electric field are related

          I = E * E

          E = √I

          E = \sqrt{1.894 \ 10^{10}}

          E = 1.376 10⁵ N / C

(a) Find the magnitude of an earthquake that has an intensity that is 37.25 (that is, the amplitude of the seismograph reading i
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of an earthquake is 5.6.

Explanation:

The magnitude of an earthquake can be found as follows:

M = log(\frac{I}{S})

Where:

I: is the intensity of the earthquake = 37.25 cm

S: is the intensity of a standard earthquake = 10⁻⁴ cm

Hence, the magnitude is:

M = log(\frac{I}{S}) = log(\frac{37.25}{10^{-4}}) = 5.6

Therefore, the magnitude of an earthquake is 5.6.

I hope it helps you!

Which describes what happens when a balloon is rubbed with a wool cloth?
777dan777 [17]
When a balloon is rubbed with a wool cloth, e<span>lectrons move from the atoms in the balloon to the atoms in the cloth, causing the cloth to have a negative charge. Therefore, the answer is B. Before they were rubbed together, they both had balanced charges. However, after rubbing them, the wool is left with the positive charge, and the balloon with the negative. This causes the atoms in the cloth to flow to the balloon, leaving the cloth with a negative charge.</span>

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 5g of water by 20oC?
Ratling [72]
Required Heat = Q

Q = Mass * specific heat of water * change in temp.

Q = 5g * 1g/cal*degC * 20degC

Q = 100 cal of heat is required

To convert calories to Joules,
1 cal = 4.184 Joules

100cal = 418.4 J of heat is needed
