Answer:
Average speed = distance/time
From 1 to 9 seconds:
Distance covered = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8 km
Time = 9 - 1 = 8 sec
Average speed = 0.8 km / 8 sec
Average speed = 0.1 km/s .
The average speed for the whole test is 1.6 km / 20 sec = 0.08 km/sec. A graph of speed vs time would average out as a horizontal line at 0.08 km/sec from 1 sec to 21 sec. The area under it would be (0.08 km/s) x (20 sec) = 1.6 km.
Surprise surprise ! The area under a speed/time graph is the distance covered during that time !
In closing, I want to express my gratitude for the gracious bounty of 3 points with which I have been showered. Moreover, the green breadcrust and tepid cloudy water have also been refreshing.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. -2.16 * 10^(-5) N
B. 9 * 10^(-7) N
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Distance between their centres, r = 0.3 m
Charge in first sphere, Q1 = 12 * 10^(-9) C
Charge in second sphere, Q2 = -18 * 10^(-9) C
A. Electrostatic force exerted on one sphere by the other is:
F = (k * Q1 * Q2) / r²
F = (9 * 10^9 * 12 * 10^(-9) * -18 * 10^(-9)) / 0.3²
F = -2.16 * 10^(-5) N
B. When they are brought in contact by a wire and are then in equilibrium, it means they have the same final charge. That means if we add the charges of both spheres and divided by two, we'll have the final charge of each sphere:
Q1 + Q2 = 12 * 10^(-9) + (-18 * 10^(-9))
= - 6 * 10^(-9) C
Dividing by two, we have that each sphere has a charge of -3 * 10^(-9) C
Hence the electrostatic force between them is:
F = [9 * 10^9 * (-3 * 10^(-9)) * (-3 * 10^(-9)] / 0.3²
F = 9 * 10^(-7) N
Answer:
Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s
Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s
Explanation:
Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks.
Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2
From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.
Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2

Answer:
5. dispersion
6. 49.8°
Explanation:
5. Dispersion is the name given to the phenomenon of light of different wavelengths being bent differently. A rainbow is the result of light from a point source (the sun) being spread out by wavelength (color), a nice example of dispersion.

6. n = 1.31 is the ratio of the sine of the angle of refraction to the sine of the angle of incidence (for light passing to a medium of n = 1). When the angle of refraction is 90°, the angle of incidence is the "critical angle." So, ...
sin(90°)/sin(critical) = 1.31
critical angle = arcsin(1/1.31) ≈ 49.8°
