A shunting engine in a rail yard is working on a straight east-west section of line. First it travels west for 150 s with an ave

rage velocity of 4 m/s, to hook up to 10 empty freight cars. Then it pulls the cars east with an average velocity of 3 m/s for 200 s, to a loading area. Calculate the engine's final displacement.

Displacement-1

\\ \rm\longmapsto Velocity(Time)

\\ \rm\longmapsto 150(4)

\\ \rm\longmapsto 600m

Displcaement-2

\\ \rm\longmapsto 200(3)

\\ \rm\longmapsto 600m

Total displacement=600+600=1200m

A satellite with a mass of 2,000 ㎏ is inserted into an orbit that is twice the Earth' s radius. W hat is the force of gravity on
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

option (b) 4900 N

Explanation:

m = 2000 kg, R = 6380 km = 6380 x 10^3 m, Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg, h = R

F = G Me x m / (R + h)^2

F = G Me x m / 2R^2

F = 6.67 x 10^-11 x 5.98 x 10^24 x 2000 / (2 x 6380 x 10^3)^2

F = 4900 N

When a wave enters a new medium from an angle, both the speed and the ________ change
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

B: Amplitude

Explanation:

When a wave travels from one medium to the other from an angle, the things that change are amplitude, wavelength, intensity and velocity.

The frequency doesn't change because the frequency depends upon the source of the wave and not the medium by which the wave is propagated.

An assault rifle fires an eight-shot burst in 0.40 s. Each bullet has a mass of 7.5 g and a speed of 300 m/s as it leaves the gu
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The average recoil force on the gun during that 0.40 s burst is 45 N.

Explanation:

Mass of each bullet, m = 7.5 g = 0.0075 kg

Speed of the bullet, v = 300 m/s

Time, t = 0.4 s

The change in momentum of an object is equal to impulse delivered. So,

F\times t=mv\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{t}

For 8 shot burst, average recoil force on the gun is :

F=\dfrac{8mv}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{7.5}{1000}\cdot\dfrac{300}{0.4}\cdot8\\\\F=45\ N

So, the average recoil force on the gun during that 0.40 s burst is 45 N.

The power is inversely proportional with time
trapecia [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Given that Power whose unit is Watt equates to one joule of work per second. It implies that Power is directly proportional to the work done and inversely proportional to the time to do the work.

Therefore, in this case, the right answer to the question is that it is TRUE that the power is inversely proportional with time
