Batteries always use direct current. That eliminates A and C. The other part of the answers is just asking what direct/alternating means. Alternating currents change directions moving one way then another. Direct current only moves in one direction. Therefore, the answer is D, since the current is direct and direct currents move in one direction.

scientific endeavor should only be pursued after known tradeoffs associated with the research have been considered. True or Fals
AfilCa [17]
This is false. There were many times in history when people discovered something that they didn't even know was possible or didn't even plan to discover it. Knowing tradeoffs doesn't mean that something won't surprise you or that all will go according to plan.

A 0.30-kg object connected to a light spring with a force constant of 22.6 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface.
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

(a)  vmax = 0.34m/s

(b)  v = 0.13m/s

(c)  v = 0.31m/s

(d)  x = 0.039m

Explanation:

Given information about the spring-mass system:

m: mass of the object = 0.30kg

k: spring constant = 22.6 N/m

A: amplitude of the motion = 4.0cm = 0.04m

(a) The maximum speed of the object is given by the following formula:

v_{max}=\omega A       (1)

w: angular frequency of the motion.

The angular frequency is calculated with the following relation:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}           (2)

You replace the expression (2) into the equation (1) and replace the values of the parameters:

v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}A=\sqrt{\frac{22.6N/m}{0.30kg}}(0.04m)=0.34\frac{m}{s}

The maximum speed of the object is 0.34 m/s

(b) If the object is compressed 1.5cm the amplitude of its motion is A = 0.015m, and the maximum speed is:

v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{22.6N/m}{0.30kg}}(0.015m)=0.13\frac{m}{s}

The speed is 0.13m/s

(c) To find the speed of the object when it passes the point x=1.5cm, you first take into account the equation of motion:

x=Acos(\omega t)

You solve the previous equation for t:

t=\frac{1}{\omega}cos^{-1}(\frac{x}{A})\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{22.6N/m}{0.30kg}}=8.67\frac{rad}{s}\\\\t=\frac{1}{8.67}cos^{-1}(\frac{1.5cm}{4.0cm})=0.13s

With this value of t, you can calculate the speed of the object with the following formula:

v=\omega Asin(\omega t)\\\\v=(8.67rad/s)(0.04m)sin((8.67rad/s)(0.13s))=0.31\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the object for x = 1.5cm is v = 0.31 m/s

(d) To calculate the values of x on which v is one-half the maximum speed, you first calculate the time t:

\frac{v_{max}}{2}=\omega A sin(\omega t)\\\\t=\frac{1}{\omega}sin^{-1}(\frac{v_{max}}{2\omega A})\\\\t=\frac{1}{8.67rad/s}sin^{-1}(\frac{0.13m/s}{2(8.67rad/s)(0.04m)})=0.021s

The position will be:

x=Acos(\omega t)=0.04mcos((8.67rad/s)(0.021s))=0.039m

The position of the object on which its speed is one-half its maximum velocity is 0.039

Timmy bikes to school 3 kilometers east and 2 kilometers south. What is Timmy's final displacement?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

3.6km South East

Explanation:

Displacement is the shortest distance between the starting point and the ending point and the direction it is displaced in. To calculate the displacement we can use the pythagoras theorem because the 3km East and the 2km south form the two shorter sides of a right angled triangle between the starting and ending points. So, the displacement is the length C of the triangle which we can calculate as follows:

Pythagoras Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

(2)^2+(3)^2=c^(2)

4+9=c^2

Square root 13 = c

c=3.6km (1dp)

The total displacement is 3.6km and is in the approximate direction of South East (because he travelled east and south).

Hope this helped!

Uphill escape ramps are sometimes provided to the side of steep downhill highways for trucks with overheated brakes. For a simpl
o-na [289]

Answer:

404.4 m

Explanation:

Converting the initial speed from km/h to m/s then

140\times \frac {1000m}{3600s}=38.88888889 m/s \approx 38.89 m/s

The acceleration is resolved as shown in the figure hence

deceleration of the truck along the inclined plane will be

a=-g sin \theta where g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting g with 9.81 m/s^{2} then

a=-9.81 m/s^{2} sin 11^{\circ}=-1.871836245\approx -1.87 m/s^{2}

Using kinematic equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as and making s the subject then

s=\frac {v^{2}-u^{2}}{2a} where v and u are final and initial velocities respectively

Substituting 0 for v, 38.89 m/s for u and -1.87 m/s^{2} then

s=\frac {0^{2}-38.89^{2}}{2\times -1.87}=404.3936096 m\approx 404.4 m
