Does latitude has an effect on weight? PLEASE HELP!​

Answer:

yes

it does you weigh less on the equator than at the North or South Pole, but the difference is small. Note that your body itself does not change. Rather it is the force of gravity and other forces that change as you approach the poles. These forces change right back when you return to your original latitude.

Two stunt drivers drive directly toward each other. At time t=0 the two cars are a distance D apart, car 1 is at rest, and car 2
lesantik [10]

Answer: Hello there!

We know this:

The distance between the cars at t= 0 is D.

car 2 has an initial velocity of v0 and no acceleration.

car 1 has no initial velocity and a acceleration of ax that starts at  t = 0

then we could obtain the acceleration of the car 1 by integrating the acceleration over the time; this is v(t) = ax*t where there is not a constant of integration because the car 1 has no initial velocity.

Because the cars are moving against each other, we want to se at what time t they meet, this is equivalent to see:  

position of car 1 + position of car 2 = D

and in this way we could ignore constants of integration :D

for the position of each car we integrate again:  

P1(t) = (1/2)ax*t^2 and P2(t) = v0t

v0t + (1/2)ax*t^2 = D

v0t + (1/2)ax*t^2  - D = 0

now we can solve it for t using the Bhaskara equation.

t = \frac{-v0 +\sqrt{v0^{2} + 4*(1/2)ax*D } }{2(1/2)ax} =\frac{-v0 +\sqrt{v0^{2} + 2ax*D } }{ax}

that we cant solve witout knowing the values for v0, D and ax. But you could replace them in that equation and obtain the time, where you must remember that you need to choose the positive solution (because this quadratic equation has two solutions).

Now we want to know the velocity of car 1 just before the impact, this can be calculated by valuating the time in the as the time that we just found in the velocity equation for the car 1, this is:

v(\frac{-v0 +\sqrt{v0^{2} + 2ax*D } }{ax}) = ax*\frac{-v0 +\sqrt{v0^{2} + 2ax*D } }{ax} = {-v0 +\sqrt{v0^{2} + 2ax*D }

where again, you need to replace the values of v0, D and ax.

A 2 kg mass is free falling in the negative Y direction when a 10 N force is exerted in the minus X direction. What is the accel
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The mass's acceleration is 5 m/s^2 in the minus X direction and 9,8 m/s^2 in the minus Y direction.

Explanation:

By applying the second Newton's law in the X and Y direction we found that in the minus X direction an external force of 10 N is exerted, while in the minus Y direction the gravity acceleration is acting:

X-direction balance force: -10 [N] = m.ax

Y-direction balance force: -m*9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} = m.ay

Where ax and ay are the components of the respective acceleration and m is the mass. By solving for each acceleration:

ax=(-10 [N]) / m

ay=-m*9,8\frac{m}{s^2} / m

Note that for the second equation above the mass is cancelled and, the Y direction acceleration is minus the gravity acceleration:

ay=-9,8\frac{m}{s^2}

For the x component aceleration we must replace the Newton unit:

N =\frac{kg.m}{s^2}

ax= -10 \frac{kg.m}{s^2} / (2 kg)

ax= - 5 \frac{m}{s^2}

A strong lightning bolt transfers an electric charge of about 31 C to Earth (or vice versa). How many electrons are transferred?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g

n_e=1.935\times 10^{20} is the no. of electrons

Explanation:

Given:

  • quantity of charge transferred, Q=31\ C

<u>No. of electrons in the given amount of charge:</u>

As we have charge on one electron 1.602\times 10^{-19}\ C

so,

n_e=\frac{Q}{e}

n_e=\frac{31}{1.602\times 10^{-19}}

n_e=1.935\times 10^{20} is the no. of electrons

  • Now if each water molecules donates one electron:

Then we require n=1.935\times 10^{20} molecules.

<u>Now the no. of moles in this many molecules:</u>

n_m=\frac{n}{N_A}

where

N_A=6.022\times 10^{23} Avogadro No.

n_m=\frac{1.935\times 10^{20}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}

n_m=3.213\times 10^{-4}\ moles

  • We have molecular mass of water as M=18 g/mol.

<u>So, the mass of water in the obtained moles:</u>

n_m=\frac{m}{M}

where:

m = mass in gram

3.213\times 10^{-4}=\frac{m}{18}

m=5.78\times 10^{-3}\ g

An instructor gives a demonstration in which he makes a standing wave on a long thin slinky. The slinky is 6.0 meters long. If y
Naily [24]

The characteristics of standing waves allows to find the result for the speed of the wave is:

  • The speed wave is:  v = 10 m / s

The wave is a way of transmitting energy without mass displacement, , in the attachment we can see a diagram of the standing wave.

Each cycle corresponds to half a wavelength,  they indicate that the frequency is 2.50 Hz and there are three cycles, so the wavelength is:

      L = n \frac{\lambda}{2}

      λ = 2L/n

      λ = 2 6 /3

       λ = 4 m

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency

        v = λ f

         v = 4 2.5

         v = 10 m / s

In conclusion, using the characteristics of standing waves we can find the result for the speed of the wave is:

  • The wave speed is:   v = 10 m / s
