In this situation, Superman moves faster than the asteroid. Velocity involves both magnitude and direction.

Velocity refers to a physical vector, which is defined by the magnitude and direction of a given object.

The absolute value of velocity is known as speed, and it can be calculated as the rate of change of the position of an object with respect to a point of reference.

The absolute value of velocity is always a function of time.

A coiled telephone cord forms a spiral with 90.0 turns, a diameter of 1.30 cm, and an unstretched length of 57.0 cm. Determine t
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

2.36 μ H

Explanation:

Given,

Number of turns= 90

diameter = 1.3 cm = 0.013 m

unscratched length = 57 cm  = 0.57 m

Area, A = π r²

            = π x 0.0065² = 1.32 x 10⁻⁴ m²

 we know,

   L = \dfrac{\mu_0N^2A}{l}

   L = \dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 90^2\times 1.32\times 10^{-4}}{0.57}

    L = 2.36 μ H

Hence, the inductance of the unstretched cord is equal to 2.36 μ H

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement.

velocity is a vector quantity, that means it requires both magnitude and direction to completely explain the velocity.

For example, the velocity is 5 ms due east, it means an object is moving with speed 5 ms in the direction of east. We can say that the object covers the displacement of 5 m in one second due east.

A student in Denver (altitude = 1 mile = 1609 m above sea level) brings a physics book of mass 1.3 kg to the top of a ten story
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy of a body due to is virtue of rest.

Potential energy is given as mgh

g is a constant and it is 9.81m/s²

And also the mass of the body is given as 1.3kg

Now the height of the body is

He took a book to a storey building of height 26m

He still holds the book 151 cm (1.51m) above the house.

The house is on an altitude of 1609m from the sea level.

Total Ug with out the sea level is

Ug=mgh

Ug=1.3 × 9.81 ×(26+1.51)

Ug=350.84J

Then, the potential energy due to the sea level is given as

Ug=mgh

Where g = 1/6371 m/s²

Therefore

Ug=mgh

Ug=1.3 × 1/6371 ×1609

Ug=0.328J

Total energy = 0.328+350.84

Ug=351.17J

The weight of a person is 500N and his foot imprint area is 0.5m^2.Calculate the total pressure exerted by person when he stands
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Pressure on both feet will be 500N/m^2  

Explanation:

Weight of the person F = 500 N

Area of foot print A=0.5m^2

Area of both the foot A=2\times 0.5=1m^2

We have to find pressure on both the feet

Pressure is equal to ratio of force and area

So pressure P=\frac{F}{A}

P=\frac{500}{1}=500N/m^2

So the pressure on both feet will be 500N/m^2 when person stands on both feet.
