Hi there!

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = Δv/Δt

Thus:

a = (75 - 15)/4 = 60/4 = 15 mi/hr²

Equation you need to use is a=Vf-Vi/t
Vi=initial velocity
Vf= Final Velocity
Write out the variables and their numbers
Vf=75 mi/hr Vi=15 mi/hr t=4 seconds
Plug it all in
75-15/4
60/4
a=15 mi/hr^2

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a).β=0.53 $x10^{-3}$ T

a).β=0.40 $x10^{-4}$ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field at distance 'r' from the center of toroid is given by:

$\beta =\frac{u_{o}*I*N}{2\pi*r}$

a).

$N=500\\I=0.800A\\r=15cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.15m\\u_{o}=4\pi x10^{-7}\frac{T*m}{A} \\\beta=\frac{4\pi x10^{-7}\frac{T*m}{A}*0.8A*500}{2\pi*0.15m} \\\beta=0.53x10^{-3}T$

b).

The distance is the radius add the cross section so:

$r_{1}=15cm+5cm\\r_{1}=20cm$

$r_{1} =20cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.20m$

$\beta =\frac{u_{o}*I*N}{2\pi*r1}$

$\beta =\frac{4\pi x10^{-7}*0.80A*500 }{2\pi*0.20m} \\\beta=0.4x10^{-3} T$

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i

inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N
