Answer:

The total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed of the car, u = 72 km/hr = 20 m/s

initial time, t₁ = 15 minutes = 900 s

final speed of the car, v = 80 km/hr = 22.22 m/s

final time, t₂ = 12 minutes = 720 s

The acceleration of the car is given as;

a = \frac{v-u}{t_2 -t_1} \\\\a = \frac{22.22-20}{900-720}\\\\a = 0.0123 \ m/s^2

The total distance covered by the car is given as;

v² = u² + 2as

where;

s is the total distance covered by the car

22.22² = 20² + 2(0.0123)s

22.22²  - 20² = 2(0.0123)s

93.728 = 0.0246s

s = 93.728 / 0.0246

s = 3,810.08 m

Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m

Answer:

34 km

Explanation:

Remark

You are dealing with distance not direction. So you just figure out the two parts separately and add.

15 minutes

t = 15 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 0.25 hours.

r = 72 km / hr

d = 72 km / hr * 0.25 hours

d = 18 km

12 minutes

t = 12 minutes * 1 hour/ 60 minutes = 0.2 hours

r = 80 km/hour

d = 80 * 0.2 = 16 km

Total distance

d = d1 + d2

d = 18 + 16 = 34 km

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular alumin
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

\rm 9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Diameter of the plates of the capacitor, D = 21 cm = 0.21 m.
  • Distance of separation between the plates, d = 1.0 cm = 0.01 m.
  • Minimum value of electric field that produces spark, \rm E=3\times 10^6\ N/C.

When the dimensions of the plate of the capacitor is comparatively much larger than the distance of separation between the plates, then, according to the Gauss' law of electrostatics, the value of the electric field strength in the region between the plates of the capacitor is given by

\rm E=\dfrac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}.

where,

  • \rm \sigma = surface charge density of the plate of the capacitor = \dfrac qA.
  • \rm q = magnitude of the charge on each of the plate.
  • \rm A = surface area of each of the plate =\rm \pi \times (Radius)^2=\pi \times\left ( \dfrac{D}{2}\right )^2= \pi \times \left ( \dfrac{0.21}{2}\right )^2=3.46\times 10^{-2}\ m^2.
  • \epsilon_o = electrical permittivity of free space, having value = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\rm \ C^2N^{-1}m^{-2}.

For the minimum value of electric field that produces spark,

\rm E = \dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\Rightarrow q = E\ A\epsilon_o\\=3\times 10^6\times 3.46\times 10^{-2}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\\=9.186\times 10^{-7}\ C.

It is the maximum value of the magnitude of charge which can be added up to each of the plates of the capacitor.

The gold foil experiment led to the conclusion that each atom in the foil was composed mostly of empty space because most alpha
katovenus [111]

Answer:

(1) passed through the foil

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.

  • When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.
  • While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.
  • And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these  conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.

If your brakes give out, why can't you just pull the keys out of the ignition?
Pachacha [2.7K]

There should be a small amount of play in the wheel when the steering is locked. Gently pull the key from the ignition while you slowly jiggle the steering wheel back and forth. If this is the cause of the problem, the key should come out after a little effort.

Which scientist first made a model of the atom called the plum pudding model? John Dalton J.J. Thomson Neils Bohr Ernest Rutherf
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: J.J Thomson

Explanation: J. J. Thomson, who discovered the electron in 1897, proposed the plum pudding model of the atom in 1904 before the discovery of the atomic nucleus in order to include the electron in the atomic model.
