Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ants position at point A = -7 cm

Ants position at point B = 38 cm

Ants position at point C = 26 cm

Ants position at point D = -7 cm

Explanation:

In this question, we are dealing with displacement which is the change in position of an object.

Now, we are told the journey began from A to B and then from C to D.

Now, AB = 31 cm and AO = 7cm

But along AB, we have the origin O.

Since A is on the left hand side of the origin, it means it is negative. Thus, position A = -7cm

Then position B = 31 - (-7) = 31 + 7 = 38 cm

Since BC = 12cm, then position C = 38 - 12 = 26 cm

Position D is same as position A = -7cm

Two car collide in an intersection. The speed limit in that zone is 30 mph. The car (mass of 1250 kg) was going 17.4 m/s (38.9). The truck (2020 kg) t-boned the car in the middle of the intersection. The car was slowed down to only 6.7 m/s. The truck after colliding with the car was going 10.3 m/s. How fast did the truck go into the intersection?

Answers

Answer:

u₂ = 3.7 m/s

Explanation:

Here, we use the law of conservation of momentum, as follows:

[tex]m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2\\[/tex]

where,

m₁ = mass of the car = 1250 kg

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2020 kg

u₁ = initial speed of the car before collision = 17.4 m/s

u₂ = initial speed of the tuck before collision = ?

v₁ = final speed of the car after collision = 6.7 m/s

v₂ = final speed of the truck after collision = 10.3 m/s

Therefore,

[tex](1250\ kg)(17.4\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(u_2)=(1250\ kg)(6.7\ m/s)+(2020\ kg)(10.3\ m/s)\\\\(2020\ kg)(u_2) = 8375\ N.s + 20806\ N.s - 21750\ N.s\\\\u_2=\frac{7431\ N.s}{2020\ kg}[/tex]

u₂ = 3.7 m/s

A magnetic field points up through a loop where the area can be increased by dragging the side of the loop along the rails that make up 2 of the other sides. If you are looking down on the loop (magnetic field out of the page from your perspective) what is the direction of the induced current as the loop increases in area

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic field is pointing upwards , so magnetic flux is upwards . Due to increase in area , magnetic flux in upward direction will increase . Hence according to Lenz's law , induced current will be such that it will try to counter this increase . It is possible if current is in clockwise direction . Due to it magnetic field will be induced in downward direction thus reducing the total magnetic flux.  

Hence direction of induced current will be clockwise direction in the loop as shown in the image enclosed .

A solid, uniform sphere of mass 2.0 kg and radius 1.8 m rolls from rest without slipping down an inclined plane of height 7.5 m. What is the angular velocity of the sphere at the bottom of the inclined plane

Answers

Answer:

[tex]w^2=5.5rads/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass [tex]m=2.0kg[/tex]

Radius [tex]r=1.8m[/tex]

Height [tex]h=7.5m[/tex]

Generally the equation for Potential energy is mathematically given by

Potential energy=Kinetic energy+Rotational energy

 [tex]mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}Iw^2[/tex]

Since there is no slipping

 [tex]v=rw[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]mgh=\frac{1}{2}mr^2w^2+\frac{1}{2}Iw^2[/tex]

Where

      [tex]I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2[/tex]

      [tex]l=3.24m[/tex]

 [tex]2*9.81*7.5=\frac{1}{2}(2)(1.8)^2w^2+\frac{1}{2}(3.24)w^2\\\\[/tex]

You throw a ball straight up. Compare the sign of the work done by gravity while the ball goes up with the sign of the work done by gravity while it goes down.

a. Work is + on the way up and + on the way down
b. Work is + on the way up and - on the way down
c. Work is - on the way up and + on the way down
d. Work is - on the way up and - on the way down

Answers

Answer:

c. Work is - on the way up and + on the way down

Explanation:

Work done is given as the product of the applied force and the displacement of the object.

Work done = F x d

Work done = mg x d

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

When the ball goes up, it moves against the force of gravity which tends to pull every object downwards. Since the ball moves against gravity, the work done is negative.

Also, when the ball goes down, it moves in the direction of gravity which acts downwards. Since the ball moves in the same direction as gravity, the work done is positive.

The correct option is "C. Work is negative (-) on the way up and positive (+) on the way down"

What is nuclear fission and how it was related to the given equation?

          Nuclear fission reaction is the process how the larger energy particles hit by a neutron and separated into lighter elements with some energy. The lighter elements can exhibit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation and in the form of kinetic energy.

        For an example, the most known nucleus is Uranium - 235. This Uranium - 235 has the half life period of 740 million years. The Uranium - 235 when bombarded with neutrons, this causes the U-235 nucleus to split, producing, on average, Barium-141, Krypton-91, and  three neutrons.

Pre-laboratory Assignment: Experiment 20 Reflection and Refraction of Light 1. When light is incident on a reflective surface, what can be said about the angle and speed at which the light is reflected? (Information is in your ‘General Physics Laboratory Manual’ Chapt. 20) 2. At what angle is the normal drawn to the reflective surface or air-medium interface? 3. How are angles of incidence, angles of reflection and of refraction measured? 4. Describe what happens to a light ray as it enters from a medium of greater refractive index to a medium of lesser refractive index

Answers

Answer:

1) ngle of incidence and reflection are equal,  light carries does not change

2) the angle of this line with respect to the surface is 90º

3) protractor

4)    n₂  sin θ₂ = n_1 sin θ₁,  light ray must have a greater angle than the incident ray ,

Explanation:

1) When light falls on a reflective surface, the angle of incidence and reflection are equal and as it travels in the same medium, the speed that the light carries does not change

2) The normal is a line perpendicular to the point of incidence of light, so the angle of this line with respect to the surface is 90º

3) Angles are measured with a protractor

4) When light passes from one medium to another, the speed of the ray changes due to the difference in the refractive index in each medium, due to this change in speed the transmitted light ray must have a greater angle than the incident ray , since the speed increases as the density of the medium decreases

Answers

Answer:

Option A. 160 cm tall and 100 cm in front of Amy

Explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question, we must recognise that the image formed by plane mirror is:

I. Same size as the object.

II. Same distance as the object from the mirror.

III. Laterally inverted.

IV. Virtual

With the above information, we obtained the answer to the question as follow:

Object height = 160 m

Thus,

Image height = 160 m

Distance of object from mirror = 50 cm

Therefore,

Distance of image from the mirror = 50 cm

Distance between the object and image = 50 + 50 = 100 cm

Thus, option A gives the correct answer to the question because the image of Amy is 160 cm tall and 100 cm in front of her.

Answers

Answer:

The dotted line connecting two points is known as the distance traveled.

Explanation:

The distance traveled is a physical quantity that refers to the total displacement of a body. This distance is usually shown as a dotted line that connects two points in an image. In general, we can say that the distance traveled is calculated by adding all the distances that an element makes when leaving one point and reaching another point, which is its final position.

An example of this can be seen in the image shown below, where the red line represents the displacement of a body that left point A and arrived at point B. The blue dotted line represents the distance traveled and refers to the total displacement of that body, showing all the distances it covered while walking from point A to point B.

What is the value of g on this planet?

Answers

Answer:

8.24 m/s²

Explanation:

Applying,

T = 2π√(L/g).................... Equation 1

Where T = period of the pendulum, L = Length of the pendulum, g = acceleration due to gravity of the planet, π = pi

From the question, we were asked to  find the value of g,

There we make g the subject of the equation

g = 4π²L/T²..................... Equation 2

Given: L= 48 cm = 0.48 m, T = (141/93) s = 1.516 s

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 2

g = 4(3.14²)(0.48)/(1.516²)

g = 18.93/2.298

g = 8.24 m/s².

Hence the acceleration of the planet is 8.24 m/s²
