4. You are walking at a leisurely pace of .75 m/s when you hear the train coming and start running to catch it. Over the next 10

seconds, you speed up to 3.5 m/s and catch your train! What was your acceleration over that time?

Answer:

0.275 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time.

  • a = Δv/Δt
  • a = (v - v₀)/t

We are given the initial velocity, 0.75 m/s. The final velocity of the user in question is 3.5 m/s.

The time it takes for us to catch the train is 10 seconds. Using these variables, let's substitute into our equation.

  • a = (3.5 - 0.75)/10
  • a = 2.75/10
  • a = 0.275 m/s²

Our acceleration over that time was 0.275 m/s² in order to catch the train.

sergey [27]

Answer:P:Increase Q:Decrease

Explanation: The price of the product will increase as the imposed per-unit excise tax on the sale of the good. This is true for both Perfectly-elastic and relatively elastic products.

The quantity demanded of the product will decrease as the price of the product increases, this his is true for both Perfectly-elastic and relatively elastic products. It will follow the law of Demand and Supply.

Anton [14]

Answer: The force is  directed upward

Explanation: Considering the Lorentz force, given by:

F= qv×B

using the right hand rule and considering the direction of electron velocity and the magnetic field from the figure, the vectorial product gives a  force vector upwards .

A 5000kg car traveling at 40m/s crashes into a wall and comes to a complete stop in 10ms. What was the force on the wall?​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

20,000,000 N

Explanation:

First find the acceleration:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (0 − 40 m/s) / 0.010 s

a = -4000 m/s²

Next use Newton's second law to find the force on the car:

F = ma

F = (5000 kg) (-4000 m/s²)

F = -20,000,000 N

According to Newton's third law, the force on the wall is equal and opposite the force on the car.

F = 20,000,000 N

Place several E-Field Sensors at a few points on different equipotential lines, and look at the relationship between the electri
Vlada [557]

Answer:

2.

Explanation:

  • If a charge is moved along a equipotential line, no work is done on the charge.
  • If we remember that the work done by an external force, is just the product of the component of the force parallel to the displacement, if the force produces no work, this means that is perpendicular to the displacement.
  • So, as the electric field is just the force per unit charge, and has the same direction as the force (for a positive charge), it must be perpendicular to any equipotential line.
  • As the electric field (by convention) has the same direction as it would be taken by a positive test charge, and positive charges move from higher voltages to lower ones, the electric field is directed toward lines of lower voltages (like it happens between the plates of a capacitor).
