The location of the point F that partitions a line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}), that goes from <u>negative 4</u> to <u>positive 5,</u> into a 5:6 ratio is fifteen halves (option 4).  

We need to calculate the segment of the line DE to find the location of point F.

Since point D is located at <u>negative -4</u> and point E is at <u>positive 5</u>, we have:

\overline{DE} = E - D = 5 - (-4) = 9

Hence, the segment of the line DE (\overline{DE}) is 9.

Knowing that point F partitions the line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}) into a <u>5:6 ratio</u>, its location would be:

F = \frac{5}{6}\overline{DE} = \frac{5}{6}9 = 5*\frac{3}{2} = \frac{15}{2}  

Therefore, the location of point F is fifteen halves (option 4).

Answer:

A

Explanation:

60 + 30 = 90

90 divided by 3 = 30

30 divided by 60 = 0.5

so your answer is 0.5 m/s

Four identical masses m are evenly spaced on a frictionless 1D track. The first mass is sent at speed v toward the other three.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The speed decreases 75%.

Explanation:

  • Since no friction present, assuming no external forces acting during the three collisions, total momentum must be conserved.
  • For the first collission, only mass 1 is moving before it, so we can write the following equation:

       p_{i} = p_{f} = m*v_{o}    (1)

  • Since both masses are identical, and they stick together after the collision, we can express the final momentum as follows:

       p_{f1} = 2*m*v_{1}    (2)

  • From (1) and (2) we get:
  • v₁ = v₀/2  (3)
  • Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1 and 2 combined together before colliding with mass 3 is just v₁, so the initial momentum prior the second collision (p₁) can be expressed as follows:

       p_{1} = 2*m*v_{1} = 2*m*\frac{v_{o} }{2}  = m*v (4)

  • Since after the collision the three masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₂) as follows:

        p_{2} = 3*m*v_{2}  (5)

  • From (4) and (5) we get:
  • v₂ = v₀/3  (6)
  • Since the masses are moving on a frictionless 1D track, the speed of the set of mass 1, 2 and 3 combined together before colliding with mass 4 is just v₂, so the initial momentum prior the third collision (p₂) can be expressed as follows:

      p_{2} = 3*m*v_{2} = 3*m*\frac{v_{o} }{3}  = m*v (7)

  • Since after the collision the four masses stick together, we can express this final momentum (p₃) as follows:

       p_{3} = 4*m*v_{3}  (8)

  • From (7) and (8) we get:
  • v₃ = v₀/4
  • This means that after the last collision, the speed will have been reduced to a 25% of the initial value, so it will have been reduced in a 75% regarding the initial value of v₀.

What device increases voltage?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Your answer would be C.

A step-up transformer is a transformer that raises voltage from main to secondary by having more secondary winding turns than primary winding turns.

Hope this helps; have a great day!

Establishing a potential difference The deflection plates in an oscilloscope are 10 cm by 2 cm with a gap distance of 1 mm. A 10
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

t = 23.9nS

Explanation:

given :

Area A= 10 cm by 2 cm => 2 x 10^-2m x 10 x 10^-2m

distance d= 1mm=> 0.001

resistor R= 975 ohm

Capacitance can be calculated through the following formula,

C = (ε0  x A )/d

C = (8.85 x 10^-12 x (2 x 10^-2 x 10 x 10^-2))/0.001

C = 17.7 x 10^-12    (pico 'p' = 10^-12)

C = 17.7pF

the voltage between two plates is related to time, There we use the following formula of the final voltage

Vc = Vx (1-e^-(t/CR))  

75 = 100 x (1-e^-(t/CR))

75/100 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 = (1-e^-(t/CR))

.75 -1 = -e^-(t/CR)

-0.25 = -e^-(t/CR)  --->(cancelling out the negative sign)

e^-(t/CR) = 0.25

in order to remove the exponent, take logs on both sides  

-t/CR = ln (0.25)

t/CR = -ln(0.25)

t = -CR x ln (0.25)

t = -(17.7 x 10^-12 x 975) x (-1.38629)

t = 23.9 x 10^{-9  

t = 23.9ns

Thus, it took 23.9ns  for the potential difference between the deflection plates to reach 75 volts
