pentagon [3]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Required distance is 103 miles and the required time is 1 hour

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the car, v = 103 miles per hour

Speed is the given as the ratio of distance traveled to time taken for the motion.

The distance it will take another car to catch up to them from a complete stop is 103 miles and the time it will take the car is 1 hour.

Therefore, required distance is 103 miles and the required time is 1 hour.

A soccer ball is kicked with an initial velocity 13 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees from the horizontal. What is the maximum heigh
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the ball is 2.84 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the soccer, u = 13 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 35°

The maximum height reached by the ball = ?

Apply the following kinematic equation, to determine the maximum height reached by the ball.

Maximum height (H) is given as;

H = \frac{U^2sin^2\theta}{2g} \\\\H = \frac{(13)^2(sin \ 35^0)^2}{2*9.8}\\\\H = 2.84 \ m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the ball is 2.84 m

Match the situation with the energy transformation ITEMBANK: Move to Top A boy shooting a rubber band across the classroom A chi
Sonbull [250]
A boy shooting a rubber band across the classroom --> 
Elastic potential energy transformed into kinetic energy 
<span>The initial energy is the energy stored in the muscles of the boy's arm, which is elastic potential energy. This is converted into motion of the rubber, therefore kinetic energy

A child going down a slide on a playground --> </span>Gravitational potential energy transformed into kinetic energy 
On top of the slide, all the energy of the child is gravitational potential energy due to its height with respect to the ground (E=mgh). when it moves down the slide, this is converted into kinetic energy, because the child acquires a speed v (E=1/2 mv^2)

Rubbing your hands together to warm them on a cold day --> </span>Kinetic energy being transformed into thermal energy <span>
When rubbing hands, we are moving them (kinetic energy), and this energy raises the temperature of the hand's surface (thermal energy)

Turning on a battery operated light --> </span>
Chemical potential energy transformed into radiant energy <span>
A battery works by mean of chemical reactions (chemical potential energy), producing light (so, emitting energy by radiation, i.e. radiant energy)

Using a dc electric motor --> </span> Electrical energy transformed into kinetic energy<span>
A dc electric motor works using  currents (so, electrical energy), and the energy produced can be used for example to accelerate a car (kinetic energy)

Using a gas power heater to warm a room --> </span>Chemical potential energy transformed into thermal energy 
<span>A gas power heater burns gases (so, chemical reaction, i.e. chemical potential energy) to raise the temperature of the room (thermal energy)

Using a hand crank generator to produce electric current --> Kinetic energy transformed into electrical energy
In a hand-crank generator, the handle is being rotated (kinetic energy) in order to produce an electric current (electrical energy)

Using the light in your room that is plugged into the wall --> </span>Electrical energy transformed into radiant energy  
<span>The lamp works by using electrical current flowing into a resistor (electrical energy) and it produces light, so it emits energy by electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy)

A car traveling at a constant speed of 30 m/s passes a highway patrol police car which is at rest. The police officer accelerate
quester [9]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) 600 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

a) Speeder acceleration is 0 as the speed is constant

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=30\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 0\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=30t\ m

Police car

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 3\times t^2\\\Rightarrow s=1.5t^2\ m

The distance they travel will be equal

30t=1.5t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{30}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ seconds

Time required by the police car to catch the speeder is 20 seconds

b) The distance traveled by the police car will be 1.5×20² = 600 m

A ray of light has a wavelength of
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of light, \lambda=284\ nm

The refractive index of glass, n = 1.51

We need to find the wavelength in vacuum. The relation between wavelength and refractive index is given by :

n=\dfrac{\lambda_v}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda_v=n\times \lambda\\\\\lambda_v=1.51\times 284\\\\\lambda_v=428.8\ nm

So, the wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.
