Answer: Answer: The object moves forward at 5 m/s, stops, and then changes velocity.

Explanation:

With the information given in the question we can graph the points (image attached).

As we can observe, in the first segment of the graph the velocity is increasing linearly (at a constant rate) and is 5 m/s, then in the second segment we can see the position of the object remains the same from second 2 to second 4, which means the object is stopped.

Finally, in the third and last segment, we can observe a change in velocity (at a negative constant rate, because is decreasing), which is decreasing until the object stops.

Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at a speed 2v, wh

mel-nik [20]

Answer: $u=\frac{v}{2}\sqrt{5-4sin\phi }$

Explanation:

Given

Both cars mass is m

and solving problem in Vertical and horizontal direction

considering + y and +x to be positive and u be the final velocity of system

Conserving Momentum in Vertical direction

$m(2v)+m(-vsin\phi )=2m(ucos\theta )$

$2ucos\theta =v(2-sin\theta )$ ------1

Conserving momentum in x direction

$mvcos\phi =2musin\theta$ -----2

squaring and adding 1 &2

$(2u)^2=(2v-vsin\phi )^2+(vcos\phi )^2$

$4u^2=4v^2+v^2-4v^2sin\phi$

$4u^2=5v^2-4v^2sin\phi$

$u=\frac{v}{2}\sqrt{5-4sin\phi }$

It takes you 8.3 min to walk with an average velocity of 1.6 m/s to the north from the bus stop to the museum entrance. How far

Anarel [89]

solution:

1.6 m/s = 96 m/min (in other words, 1.6 m/s x 60 s/min)

96 m/min x 8.3 min = 796.8 m

$s=ut +\frac{1}{2}at^2\\there is no accleration mentioned so,\\s= uv\\8.3\times60=498(s)\\510\times1.6=816(m)$

The energy of a photon of light is __________ proportional to its frequency and __________ proportional to its wavelength.

icang [17]

Answer:

D) directly, inversely

Explanation:

The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

Wavelength is the is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave.

Mathematically, frequency is related to wavelength and velocity using;

Energy = h x f

where h is the Planck's constant

f is the frequency

Since c = f ∧

where f is the frequency of the wave

∧ is the wavelength of the wave

c is the speed of light

So;

f = c/∧

Therefore;

E = $\frac{h c}{wavelength}$

From the equation, we see an inverse relationship between E and wavelength and a direct one with frequency.

2. What is the resistance expected on a heater that is feed by 480V AC and the Electric Power is 4.6kW?

Korvikt [17]

The resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.

<h3>What is resistance?</h3>

Resistance can be defined as the opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit. The S.I unit of resistance is Ohms (Ω).

To calculate the resistance of the heater, we use the formula below.

<h3>Formula:</h3>

R = V²/P............. Equation 1

Where:

R = Resistance of the heater
P = Power of the heater
V = Voltage supplied to the heater

From the question,

Given:

V = 480 V
P = 4.6 kW = 4600 W

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = (480²)/4600
R = 50.1 ohms.

Hence, the resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.
