If dirt and grease were good conductors of electrical current, then we could make wire
out of dirt and grease instead of expensive copper. Sadly, they're not. So a coating of
dirt and grease on the wire can have a substantial impact on the connection, and can
even block the flow of current across the connection completely. Moreover, in the case
where the ends of the wires are to be soldered, solder does not adhere to dirty wire.
Answer:
2.69 m/s
Explanation:
Hi!
First lets find the position of the train as a function of time as seen by the passenger when he arrives to the train station. For this state, the train is at a position x0 given by:
x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)*(6.4s)^2 = 8.6016 m
So, the position as a function of time is:
xT(t)=(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m
Now, if the passanger is moving at a constant velocity of V, his position as a fucntion of time is given by:
xP(t)=V*t
In order for the passenger to catch the train
xP(t)=xT(t)
(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m = V*t
To solve this equation for t we make use of the quadratic formula, which has real solutions whenever its determinat is grater than zero:
0≤ b^2-4*a*c = V^2 - 4 * ((1/2)(0.42m/s^2)) * 8.6016 m =V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2
This equation give us the minimum velocity the passenger must have in order to catch the train:
V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2 = 0
V^2 = 7.22534(m/s)^2
V = 2.6879 m/s
Answer:
465m.
Explanation:
Convert all units to meters. So,
328 + 137 = 465m.
Answer:
1 inch = 2.54 cm
12.9 inches= 12.9 x 2.54
= 32.766
= 32.8 cm (approximately)
Hope it helps...
