Answer:

<h2><em>This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line. The amount of bending depends on two things: Change in speed – if a substance causes the light to speed up or slow down more, it will refract (bend) more.</em></h2><h2><em>Hop</em><em>e</em><em> it</em><em> helps</em><em>.</em><em>.</em></h2>

What will the stopping distance be for a 3,000-kg car if -3,000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 m/s?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

F = force applied to stop the car = - 3000 N

m = mass of the car = 3000 kg

a = acceleration of the car = ?

v₀ = initial velocity of the car before the force is applied to stop it = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the car when it comes to stop = 0 m/s

d = stopping distance of the car

acceleration of the car is given as

a = F/m

inserting the values

a = - 3000/3000

a = - 1 m/s²

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a d

inserting the values

0² = 10² + 2 (-1) d

0 = 100 - 2 d

2 d = 100

d = 100/2

d = 50 m

hence the correct choice is

C. 50 m

*photo attached* The diameters of the main rotor and tail rotor of a single-engine helicopter are 7.67 m and 1.01 m, respectivel

stiks02 [169]

(a) The speeds of the tips of both rotors; main rotor <u>178.3 m/s</u> and tail rotor <u>218.4 m/s</u>.

(b) The speed of the main rotor is <u>0.52</u> speed of sound, and the speed of the tail rotor is <u>0.64</u> speed of sound.

<h3>Linear speed of main motor and tail rotor</h3>

v = ωr

where;

ω is the angular speed (rad/s)
r is radius (m)

v(main rotor) = (444 rev/min x 2π rad x 1 min/60s) x (0.5 x 7.67 m)

v(main rotor) = 178.3 m/s

v(tail rotor) = (4,130 rev/min x 2π rad x 1 min/60s) x (0.5 x 1.01 m)

v(tail rotor) = 218.4 m/s

<h3>Speed of the rotors with respect to speed of sound</h3>

% speed (main motor) = 178.3/343 = 0.52 = 52 %

% speed (tail motor) = 218.4/343 = 0.64 = 64 %

Thus, the speed of the main rotor is 0.52 speed of sound, and the speed of the tail rotor is 0.64 speed of sound.

An electron that has a velocity with x component 1.6 × 106 m/s and y component 2.4 × 106 m/s moves through a uniform magnetic fi

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

(a) 5.056 x 10^-14 N

(b) 5.056 x 10^-14 N

Explanation:

X component of velocity of electron is 1.6 × 10^6 m/s

Y component of velocity of electron is 2.4 × 10^6 m/s

X component of magnetic field is 0.025 T

Y component of magnetic field is -0.16 T

charge on electron, q = - 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Write the velocity and magnetic field in the vector forms.

$\overrightarrow{v}=1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j}$

$\overrightarrow{B}=0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j}$

The force on the charge particle when it is moving in the magnetic field is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=q\left ( \overrightarrow{v}\times \overrightarrow{B} \right )$

(a) Force on electron is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\left ( 1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j} \right )\times \left ( 0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j} \right )$

$\overrightarrow{F}=5.056\times 10^{-14}\widehat{k}$

Magnitude of force is 5.056 x 10^-14 N.

(b) Force on a proton is given by

$\overrightarrow{F}=1.6\times 10^{-19}\left ( 1.6\times 10^{6}\widehat{i}+2.4\times 10^{6}\widehat{j} \right )\times \left ( 0.025\widehat{i}-0.16\widehat{j} \right )$

$\overrightarrow{F}=-5.056\times 10^{-14}\widehat{k}$

Magnitude of force is 5.056 x 10^-14 N.

Thus, the magnitude of force remains same but the direction of force is opposite to each other.
