 THE PREFIX KILO MEANSTIMES A THOUSAND OR ONE THOUSAND 
natita [175]3 years ago
6 0
In metric that means multiplying or dividing by 10, 100, 1000, etc. It consists of a partial word like "kilo" or "milli". For example, the prefix "kilo" means "times a thousand" or " one thousand of" the units in question. So "kilometer" means one thousand meters and "kilogram" means one thousand grams.

A jet on an aircraft carrier can be launched from rest to 40 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the acceleration of the aircraft? Show st
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a=20\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 40 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

We need to find the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that, acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{40-0}{2}\\\\=20\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 20\ m/s^2.

A circular coil of wire of radius 5.0 cm has 20 turns and carries a current of 2.0 A. The coil lies in a magnetic field of magni
Korvikt [17]

Answer:a. Magnetic dipole moment is 0.3412Am²

b. Torque is zero(0)N.m

Explanation: The magnetic dipole moment U is given as the product of the number of turns n times the current I times the area A

That is,

U = n*I*A

But Area A is given as pi*radius² since it is a circular coil

Radius given is 5cm converting to meter we divide by 100 so we have our radius to be 0.05m. So area A is

A = 3.142*(0.05)² =7.86*EXP {-3} m²

Current I is 2 A

Number of turns is 20

So magnetic dipole moment U is

U = 20*2*7.86*EXP {-3}=0.3142A.m²

b. Torque is given as the cross product of the magnetic field B and magnetic dipole moment U

Torque = B x U =B*U*Sine(theta)

But since the magnetic field is directed parallel to the plane of the coil from the question, it means that the angle between them is zero and sine zero is equals 0(zero) if you substitute that into the formula for torque you will find out that your torque would equals zero(0)N.m

If a baseball has a zero velocity at some instant, is the acceleration of the baseball necessarily zero at that time? Explain -
ipn [44]

Answer:

No, not necessarily

Explanation:

If an object is moving with an acceleration that causes its speed to be reduced, there will be a moment in which it reaches v = 0, but this doesn't necessarily mean that the acceleration isn't acting anymore. If the object continues its movement with the same acceleration, it's velocity will become negative.

An example of an object that has zero velocity but non-zero acceleration:

If you throw an object in the air with a certain velocity, it will move vertically, reducing its velocity in a 9,8 m/s^{2} rate (which is the acceleration caused by gravity). At a certain point, the object will reach its maximum height, and will start to fall. In the exact moment that it reaches the maximum height, before it starts falling, its velocity is zero, but gravity is still acting on the object (this is the reason why it starts falling instead of just being stopped at that point). Therefore, at that point, the object has zero velocity but an acceleration of 9,8 m/s^{2}.
