Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

Two metal plates 15mm apart have a potential difference of 750v between them. The force on a small charged sphere placed between
Romashka [77]

Answer:

50,000 V/m

Explanation:

The electric field between two charged metal plates is uniform.

The relationship between potential difference and electric field strength for a uniform field is given by the equation

\Delta V=Ed

where

\Delta V is the potential difference

E is the magnitude of the electric field

d is the  distance between the plates

In this problem, we have:

\Delta V=750 V is the potential difference between the plates

d = 15 mm = 0.015 m is the distance between the plates

Therefore, rearranging the equation we find the strength of the electric field:

E=\frac{\Delta V}{d}=\frac{750}{0.015}=50,000 V/m

A 0.0140 kg bullet traveling at 205 m/s east hits a motionless 1.80 kg block and bounces off it, retracing its original path wit
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Mass of bullet = 0.0140 kg

Consider east as positive.

Initial velocity of bullet = 205 m/s

Mass of Block = 1.8 kg

Initial velocity of block = 0 m/s

Initial momentum = 0.014 x 205 + 1.8 x 0 = 2.87 kg m/s

Final velocity of bullet = -103 m/s

We need to find final velocity of the block( u )

Final momentum = 0.014 x -103+ 1.8 x u = -1.442 + 1.8 u

We have

            2.87 = -1.442 + 1.8 u

               u = 2.40 m/s

Final velocity of the block = 2.40 m/s east.

in terms of the wavelength of the sound wave, about how far below the open end of the resonance tube is the first resonant posit
notka56 [123]

The first resonant position below the open end of the resonance tube is; <em><u>one-quarter of the wavelength</u></em>

In the event of the first resonant position in a resonance tube, there will be a maximum air displacement which is only one antinode right at the open end where the motion is constrained.

However, there will be no displacement at the closed end which means another one node right at the closed end where air is halted.

This means that the standing wave will have one-quarter of the wavelength in the test tube.

Thus;

L = ¼λ
