Answer:

50km /hour

Explanation:

The car moves 100km in two hours.

We can write a ratio like this:

100km : 2hr

Divide both sides by two and you get:

50km : 1hr

Meaning the moving car is moving 50km an hour.

Hope this helps :)

An iron block of mass 10 kg rests on a wooden plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. It is found

Kaylis [27]

I assume the 100 N force is a pulling force directed up the incline.

The net forces on the block acting parallel and perpendicular to the incline are

∑ F[para] = 100 N - F[friction] = 0

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg cos(30°) = 0

The friction in this case is the maximum static friction - the block is held at rest by static friction, and a minimum 100 N force is required to get the block to start sliding up the incline.

Then

F[friction] = 100 N

F[normal] = mg cos(30°) = (10 kg) (9.8 m/s²) cos(30°) ≈ 84.9 N

If µ is the coefficient of static friction, then

F[friction] = µ F[normal]

⇒ µ = (100 N) / (84.9 N) ≈ 1.2

The magnitude of Earth’s magnetic field is about 0.5 gauss near Earth’s surface. What’s the maximum possible magnetic force on a

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy of the electron is given as

$KE = 1 keV$

$KE = 1 \times 10^3 (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) J$

$KE = 1.6 \times 10^{-16} J$

now the speed of electron is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 KE}{m}}$

$v = 1.87 \times 10^7 m/s$

now the maximum force due to magnetic field is given as

$F = qvB$

$F = (1.6\times 10^{-19})(1.87 \times 10^7)(0.5 \times 10^{-4})$

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

Now if this force is compared by the gravitational force on the electron then it is

$\frac{F}{F_g} = \frac{1.5 \times 10^{-16}}{9.1 \times 10^{-31} (9.8)}$

$\frac{F}{F_g} = 1.68 \times 10^{13}$

so this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

A boy rides a sled down a steep, snow.covered hill. Which of

Travka [436]

Answer:

a. Potential energy decreases and Kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

Because as he comes down due to its steepness the speed of the boy or you can say his KE increases and since he comes from a high position (hill) to the lower ground his potential energy decreases simultaneously

A 91-kg astronaut and a 1300-kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, givi

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

18.2145 meters

Explanation:

Using the conservation of momentum, we have that:

$m1v1 + m2v2 = m1'v1' + m2'v2'$

m1 = m1' is the mass of the astronaut, m2=m2' is the mass of the satellite, v1 and v2 are the inicial speed of the astronaut and the satellite (v1 = v2 = 0), and v1' and v2' are the final speed of the astronaut and the satellite. Then we have that:

$0 + 0 = 91*v1' + 1300*0.17$

$v1' = -1300*0.17/91 = -2.4286\ m/s$

The negative sign of this speed just indicates the direction the astronaut goes, which is the opposite direction of the satellite.

If the astronaut takes 7.5 seconds to come into contact with the shuttle, their initial distance is:

$distance = 2.4286 * 7.5 = 18.2145\ meters$
