Explanation:
You're correct. Use kinematic equation to find V_final.
[tex] {v}^{2} = {v 0}^{2} + 2a(xf - x0)[/tex]
Then use the following to find time.
[tex]t = (vf - v0) \div a[/tex]
Then 50m/3.2s = 15.65m/s
do you think distance and time are relevant terms in describing motion?
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
because motion is relevant
Answer:
Motion is mathematically defined as displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and time. The motion of a body is recognized by adding a frame of reference to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body related to that frame with the change in time.

An emf of 22.0 mV is induced in a 519-turn coil when the current is changing at the rate of 10.0 A/s. What is the magnetic flux through each turn of the coil at an instant when the current is 3.70 A?
Answer:
[tex]\phi=1.56\times 10^{-5}\ Wb[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
Emf, V = 22 mV
Number of turns in the coil us 519
Rate of change of current is 10 A/s.
We need to find the magnetic flux through each turn of the coil at an instant when the current is 3.70 A.
Let's find the inductance first. So,
[tex]L=\dfrac{\epsilon}{(dI/dt)}\\\\L=\dfrac{0.022}{10}\\\\L=0.0022\ H[/tex]
We have,
[tex]L=\dfrac{N\phi}{I}[/tex], [tex]\phi[/tex] is magnetic flux
[tex]\phi=\dfrac{LI}{N}\\\\\phi=\dfrac{0.0022\times3.7}{519}\\\\\phi=1.56\times 10^{-5}\ Wb[/tex]
So, the magnetic flux is [tex]1.56\times 10^{-5}\ Wb[/tex].
A body with an initial velocity of 10m/s has an acceleration of 8m/s^2. Determine graphically the velocity after 5 seconds, & the distance travelled in that time. Verify your answer using the equations of motion.
Answer:
From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table
Please find attached the graph
Explanation:
The initial velocity of the body = m/s
The acceleration of the body = 8 m/s²
The velocity after 5 seconds can be determined graphically and by calculation as follows;
Graphically, we have the data points which can be found by the straight line relation v = u + a×t,
Where ,
a = The slope = 8 m/s²
u = 10 m/s = The y-intercept
Which gives;
v = 10 + 8 × t
The following data can be calculated for various time t;
Time, t Velocity , v
0, 10
1, 18
2, 26
3, 34
4, 42
5, 50
6, 58
From the graph, at t = 5 seconds, the velocity = 50 m/s as shown also in the above table
Please find attached the graph
By calculation, we have;
v = u + a×t
Where;
v = The final velocity
u = The initial velocity = 10 m/s
a = The acceleration = 8 m/s²
t = The time = 5 seconds
v = 10 + 5× 8 = 50 m/s.
prove p=f/a science chapter pressure
Explanation:
Let 'F' be force acting perpendicularly, 'A' be the area and 'P' be the pressure exerted.
Then,
Pressure is directly proportional to the the force acting perpendicularly i.e.
P ∝ F ............. (i)
Pressure is inversely proportional to the area on which force acts i.e.
P ∝ 1/A ........... (ii)
Combining equations (i) and (ii),
P ∝ F/A
or, P = K × F/A [where K is a constant]
If F is 1N, A is 1m² and P is 1 N/m², then K is 1.
So, P = F/A proved...
what's the difference between force of gravity and the earth's magnetic field?
Answer:
Gravitational fields are determined only by the mass ( or mass-energy) of a body. ... magnetic fields are produced by charged particles in motion, and depend on the charge and velocity of these particles, but not on their mass. Magnetic fields are 'polar' fields with a North and South polarity.
Explanation:
Explain what happens to the sound waves when a singer hits the high pitched notes during the National Anthem. Be sure to use the terms amplitude and frequency in your answer.
Answer: The frequency increases as the pitch increases, and the amplitude increases as the volume increases
Explanation:
Waves have the property of:
v = f*λ
where v is the speed of the wave (which is almost constant for soundwaves, v = 340 m/s)
f is the frequency of the wave, and λ is the wavelength.
Now, we know that when the pitch of a note increases, also does the frequency of the soundwave (so the wave oscillates faster).
Now, we also want to include the amplitude of the soundwave in this.
The amplitude is related to the volume of the soundwave (actually is related to the energy, and as higher is the energy, more "loud" is the sound).
As the high pitch part is usually "louder", we can assume that we have an amplitude increase.
Then the answer would be:
"The frequency increases as the pitch increases, and the amplitude increases as the volume increases"
If the boy on the bicycle in the preceding problem accelerates from rest to a speed of 10.0 m/s in 10.0 s, the angular acceleration of the tires is:_______
Answer:
The angular acceleration is 3.33 rad/s²
Explanation:
Here is the preceding problem as well as the given problem:
A boy rides his bicycle 2.00 km. The wheels have radius 30.0 cm. What is the total angle the tires rotate through during his trip?
21.
If the boy on the bicycle in the preceding problem accelerates from rest to a speed of 10.0 m/s in 10.0 s, what is the angular acceleration of the tires?
Explanation:
To determine the angular acceleration, we will first find the linear accelerationFrom one of the equations of kinematics for linear motion
v = u + at
Where v is the final speed
u is the initial speed
a is the linear acceleration
and t is time
From the question, the boy starts from rest, hence,
u = 0.0 m/s
v = 10.0 m/s
t = 10.0 s
a = ??
From, v = u + at
a = [tex]\frac{ v - u}{t}[/tex]
a = [tex]\frac{10 - 0}{10}[/tex]
a = 1 m/s²
Now, for the angular acceleration, [tex]\alpha[/tex]
The relationship between linear acceleration, a and angular acceleration, [tex]\alpha[/tex] is
a = [tex]\alpha[/tex]r
where r is radius
From the previous question, r = 30.0cm = 0.3m
From the equation, a = [tex]\alpha[/tex]r
[tex]\alpha[/tex] = a / r
[tex]\alpha[/tex] = 1 / 0.3
[tex]\alpha[/tex] = 3.33 rad/s²

Answer:
Solution
Given:
initial velocity (u)=0m/s (because an object
starts from the rest)
time (t)=3sec
diatance travelled(s)=14m(16-2=14)
acceleration (a)=?
Now,
According to the formula
s=ut+1/2at^2
or,14 =0×3+1/2×a×3^2
or, 14=0+a/2×9
or, 14=9a/2
or, 9a=28
or, a=28/9
or, a=3.1 m/s^2
Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 3.1m/s^2 ans.

Is the ultraviolet ray monochromatic or polychromatic?
Answ
In real world application Ultraviolet is not a color as it it can’t be seen by the human eye. It is a high frequency part of the Suns electromagnetic radiation. Even though UltraViolet sounds like a color, the Ultra in this case signifies that it is beyond Violet and thus beyond the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are not depicted with a color on spectrum charts, since we can’t see it we can’t truly classify it as a color no more than can we equate the other parts of the spectrum like XRays, Gamma Rays and Radio Waves with colors. These and other non-visible parts of the spectrum are measured instead with wavelengths. So the answer is no they would not be monochromatic, or any color at all.
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet are the visible colors of the electromagnetic spectrum. They, combined together are called white light and our atmosphere acts like a prism to divide them into separate and apparently distinct colors. Outside the visible Red you have Infrared which is invisible to the human eye and is the heat we feel from the sun. Outside the Violet end of the visible spectrum is where UVA, UVB and UVC are found, and these are the eye and skin damaging rays. UV rays are also invisible to the human eye (but visible to certain birds of prey such as raptors
Explanation:
On a frictionless air track, a 0.30 kg glider moving at 0.40m/s to the right collides with a stationary 0.80kg glider moving at 0.15 m/s to the left. The collision is cushioned by a bumper made of perfectly elastic spring steel. a. What is the velocity of each glider after the collision? b. What is the minimum amount of total kinetic energy during the collision? c. Where is the missing energy?
Answer:
Explanation:
It is the case of perfectly elastic collision . So we shall apply formula of velocity after collision as follows .
Let m₁ and m₂ be the mass colliding with velocity u₁ and u₂ and their velocity become v₁ and v₂ after collision .
[tex]v_1=\frac{(m_1-m_2)u_1 }{m_1+m_2)} +\frac{2 m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}[/tex]
Putting the values
[tex]v_1=\frac{ (.30-.80).40 }{( .30+.80)} +\frac{2\times .80\times(-.15) }{(.30+.80 )}[/tex]
= - 0.4 m /s
So direction of .30 kg mass will be reversed .
[tex]v_2=\frac{ ( m_2-m_1) u_2 }{( m_1+m_2)} +\frac{2 m_1u_1}{(m_1+m_2)}[/tex]
putting the values
[tex]v_2=\frac{ ( .80-.30)(-.15) }{( .30+.80)} +\frac{2 \times.30\times.40}{(.30+.80)}[/tex]
= .15 m /s
The direction of .80 kg will become from left to right ie its direction will be reversed .
b ) Minimum amount of kinetic energy will be at the position when they move with common velocity
common velocity
v = .3 x .4 - .8 x .15 / (.3 + .8)
= 0
c )
Missing energy is stored as elastic potential energy in the spring .
observe the virual skateboarder coming down the hill and over the ramp describe how each of newton’s laws of motion can be observed in this action you can choose the dry wet or muddy conditions or some combination of these
Answer:
first part the skater goes down a constant slope ramp, initially he has Newton's second law
pply Newton's third law, the normal is the reaction to the support of the body on the surface
the ramp shoots off. axis becomes zero and therefore with Newton's first law its speed
Explanation:
It is the description of this movement let's write Newton's laws.
* The first law that a body goes at constant speed or zero if the sum of the external forces is zero
* the second law is F = m a
* The third law states that the forces act in pairs of equal magnitude and opposite direction, one applied to each body.
Let's apply these laws to our case
In the first part the skater goes down a constant slope ramp, initially he has Newton's second law when he accelerates from the initial velocity of zero to a terminal velocity.
The expression for this is
Wₓ - fr = ma
W sin θ - μ W cos θ = m a
W = mg
g (sin θ - μ cos) = a
the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction depends on the condition of the surface, dry, wet or muddy
This is Newton's second law
On the Y axis, which is perpendicular to the ramp we have
N- [tex]W_{y}[/tex] = 0
If we apply Newton's third law, the normal is the reaction to the support of the body on the surface, note that it can be different from the weight.
In the second part when he is on the ramp.
In the ramp the skater enters with a speed v, suppose that the ramp has an incline so that the skater can jump, in this case the angle is positive with respect to the axis x
In this case the analysis is similar to the previous one
Newton's second law gives the acceleration of the skater, who when he reaches the end of the ramp shoots off.
At this point the force in the x (horizontal) axis becomes zero and therefore with Newton's first law its speed this axis remains constant and the force in the y axis is the force of gravity and has an acceleration that changes if velocity according to Newton's second law

Den pushes a desk 400 cm across the floor. He exerts a force of 10 N for 8 s to move the desk. What is his power output? (Power: P = W/t) 1.25 W 5 W 40 W 500 W
Answer:
5 W
Explanation:
The formula of the power is:
● P = W/t
W is the work and t is the time needed to do it(in seconds)
Let's calculate first the work that the force exerced:
W = Vector F . Vector d
D is the distance ( here 400 cm wich is 4 m)
Make a representation to see how are the vectors F and V.(picture below)
The vector F and d are colinear since Den is pushing the desk on the ground.
● W = 4 × 10 = 40 J
J is Joule
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
● P = W / t
● P = 40/ 8
● P = 5 W
The power output of the force of 10N for 8 seconds to move the desk is 5 watts. Thus, the correct option is B.
What is Power?Power is the amount of energy which is transferred or converted per unit time. In the SI system of Units, the unit of power is the watt, which is equal to one joule per second time.
We Know, P = W/t
where, P = Power,
W = Work done,
t = Time taken
P = F × s/t
where, F = Force applied,
s = distance travelled,
t = time taken
Here, F = 10N
s = 400cm = 4m
t = 8 sec
Substitute their values into the expression,
P = 10 × 4/8
P = 10 × 1/2
P = 5 Watt
So, the power output will be 5 watts.
Therefore, the correct option is B.

A missile is moving 1350 m/s at a 25° angle it needs to hit a target 23,500 m away in a 55° direction in 10.2 seconds what is the magnitude of its final velocity
Answer:
3504 m/s
Explanation:
Let x be the horizontal component of distance
y - vertical component of distance
t-time
ax- horizontal component of acceleration
ay-Vertical component of acceleration
Vx-horizontal component of velocity
Vy-Vertical component of velocity
horizontally: x = V_x ×t + ½×a_x×t²
plugging the values we get
23500× cos 55º = 1350×cos25.0º × 10.20 + ½×a_x× (10.20)²
⇒ax = 19.2 m/s²
Moreover,
V'x = V_x + a_x×t = 1350×cos25.0º + 19.2×10.20= 1419 m/s
similarly in vertical direction:
y = V_y×t + ½×a_y×t²
23500×sin55º = 1350×sin25.0º×10.20s + ½×a_y×(10.20)²
⇒a_y = 258 m/s²
Also,
V'y = V_y + a_y×t = 1350×sin25.0º + 258×10.20 = 3204 m/s
Therefore
V = √(V'x² + V'y²) = 3504 m/s
therefore, magnitude of final velocity of missile=3504 m/s

Communication satellites are often put in a geo-synchronous orbit, meaning they have an orbital period of 24 hours and stay over the same spot above the equator at all times. Given that the Earth has a mass of 5.97 x 1024 kg and a radius of 6.37 x 106 meters, determine the following: a. What is the orbital height of the satellite relative to the surface of the Earth
Answer:
h = 35857 km
Explanation:
A geosynchronous orbit can be defined as circular orbit which lies on the Earth's equatorial plane and follows the direction of the Earth's rotation in a period that's equal to the Earth's rotational period and thereby appearing motionless, at a fixed position in the sky relative to the ground observers.
We are given;
Radius of earth(R) = 6.37 x 10^(6) m
Mass of earth (Me) = 5.97 x 10^(24) kg
Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^(-11) m³/kg.s²
The earth has a rotational period of 24 hours per day. This gives in seconds
T = 24 × 60 × 60
T = 86400 s
Let's make the height of the orbit from Earth's surface to be h
Also, let ω be the uniform angular velocity in rad/s with which the satellite rotates in the geosynchronous orbit
Now, equating the centripetal force with the gravitational force gives us;
mω²(R + h) = G•Me•m/(R + h)²
m will cancel out. Also ω can be written as 2π/T
Thus,we now have;
(R + h) = ∛(G•Me•T²/(4π²))
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
(R + h) = ∛(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 5.97 x 10^(24) × 86400²/(4π²))
(R + h) = 42227 Km
Since R = 6.37 x 10^(6)m = 6370 km
Thus;. h = 42227 - 6370 = 35857 km
10.Un móvil recorre 26 m en el tercer segundo de su movimiento. Determinar la velocidad inicial del móvil, si su aceleración es de 8 m/s. AYUDA POR FAVOR
Answer: La velocidad inicial es 6m/s
Explanation:
Primero escribamos las ecuaciones de movimiento:
Sabemos que la aceleración es 8m/s^2.
a(t) = 8m/s^2.
Para obtener la velocidad, tenemos que integrar sobre el tiempo:
v(t) = (8m/s^2)*t + v0
donde v0 es la velocidad inicial.
Para la posición volvemos a integrar sobre el tiempo, y tenemos:
p(t) = (1/2)*(8m/s^2)*t^2 + v0*t + p0 = (4m/s^2)*t^2 + v0*t + p0
Donde p0 es la posición inicial.
Nosotros sabemos que en el tercer segundo, el móvil recorre 26m
Esto significa que:
p(3s) - p(2s) = 26m = (4m/s^2)(3s^2 - 2s^2) + v0(3s - 2s) + p0 - p0
26m = (4m/s^2)*5s^2 + v0*1s
De aquí podemos despejar el valor de v0:
26m = 20m + v0*1s
6m = v0*1s
v0 = 6m/s
An electron and a proton are 6.5x10 ^ -11 m apart, find the magnitude of the electric and gravitational force between the two particles
Explanation:
The electric force is:
F = k q₁ q₂ / r²
F = (9×10⁹ Nm²/C²) (-1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C) (+1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C) / (6.5×10⁻¹¹ m)²
F = 5.4×10⁻⁸ N
The gravitational force is:
F = G m₁ m₂ / r²
F = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²) (9.11×10⁻³¹ kg) (1.67×10⁻²⁷ kg) / (6.5×10⁻¹¹ m)²
F = 2.40×10⁻⁴⁷ N
At what altitude the value of ‘g’ would become one fourth (¼)of the surface of the earth?
Answer:
Explanation:
For acceleration due to gravity g , the expression is
g = GM / R² , where G is gravitational constant M is mass of the earth and R is radius of the earth .
At height h , let the value of it becomes g / 4 , so
g / 4 = GM / ( R + h )²
dividing
4 = [( R+ h)² / R² ]
2 = (R + h) / R
2 = 1 + h / R
h / R = 1
h = R
So at height equal to radius of the earth , acceleration due to gravity becomes 1 /4 of value on the surface of the earth .

Comic-strip hero Superman meets an asteroid in outer space and hurls it at 800 m/s, as fast as a bullet. The asteroid is a thousand times more massive than Superman. In the strip, Superman is seen at rest after the throw. Taking physics into account, what would be his recoil speed (in km/s)?
Answer:
800km/s
Explanation:
Initial momentum = final momentum
the total momentum is zero, Before the release of the asteroid , but Superman and the asteroid are not moving.
So, according to the Conservation of momentum the total momentum when the astronaut is been thrown will equals to zero . Then we can say
Initial momentum = final momentum
Because the momentum of the Superman immediately the asteroid is been thrown is equal to the momentum of the asteroid
Momentum =(mass ×velocity)
the mass of the asteroid i= 1000M
Given velocity = 800 m/s,
momentum =(1000M)(800 m/s)
= 800,000M m/s.
to get the answer, we need to divide by Superman's mass, M, which gives his recoil velocity of 800,000 m/s.
But we're told to convert to km/ s
We know that 1m/s=0.001km/s
=(800,000M m/s)× (0.001km/s)
=800km/s
Therefore, his recoil speed (in km/s) is 800km/s
