A student pushes a laptop cart down the hallway by applying 20 Newtons force. The student pushes it 10 meters and
then stops at the water fountain with the cart and haves a sip of water. While he drinks from the water fountain, what
type of work is being done to the laptop cart.

Answers

Answer:

None.

Explanation:

By definition, work is a process that it happens when an applied force

        causes an object to change its position, i.e. to have a displacement.

        Since the laptop cart is at rest while he stops at the water fountain, no  

       net work done is on the laptop cart.

The center of mass of a uniform disk of radius
Ris located where?​

Answers

Answer:

At the centre

Explanation:

To prove the position of the centre of mass, usually we take a strip across the circular disc and call it dy; calculate the length of the strip; calculate the mass per unit area of the disc. And then when we carry out some integral operations using R and -R as the boundaries we will arrive at y_cm = 0 which means the centre y_cm is at the centre of mass of this uniform disc.

What is the potential difference VB – VA when the I= 1.5 A in the circuit segment below?​

Answers

The potential difference across Vb - Va is 38 Volts

Considering the given circuit we have to apply Kirchoff's Voltage Law (KVL) in order to calculate potential difference across Va and Vb.

  Here it is given that current I = 1.5 A flows from point a to b. With reference to the direction of flow of current the 20V battery is considered of positive potential and the 12V battery is considered of negative potential.

Applying KVL :  Va - Vb = 20V + (1.5 × 20)V - 12V

                          Va - Vb = 38V

A 60-W light bulb radiates electromagnetic waves uniformly in all directions. At a distance of 1.0 mm from the bulb, the light intensity is Io, the average energy density of the waves is u0, and the rms electric and magnetic field values are Eo and Bo, respectively.

Required:
a. What is the light intensity?
b. What is the average energy density of the waves?
c. What is the rms magnetic field value?

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate solution is:

(a) [tex]\frac{1}{4}(I_o)[/tex]

(b) [tex]\frac{1}{4} (u_o)[/tex]

(c) [tex]\frac{1}{2}B_o[/tex]

Explanation:

According to the question, the value is:

Power of bulb,

= 60 W

Distance,

= 1.0 mm

Now,

(a)

⇒  [tex]\frac{I}{I_o} =\frac{r_o_2}{r_2}[/tex]

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒  [tex]I=I_o\times \frac{1_2}{2^2}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=I_o\times \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=\frac{1}{4} (I_o)[/tex]

(b)

As we know,

⇒ [tex]\frac{u}{u_o} =\frac{I}{I_o}[/tex]

By putting the values, we get

⇒ [tex]u=\frac{1}{4}(u_o)[/tex]

(c)

⇒ [tex]\frac{B^2}{B_o^2} =\frac{u}{u_o}[/tex]

         [tex]=\frac{I}{I_o}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]B=B_o\times \sqrt{\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]

What is electromagnetic radiation?

A flow of energy in which the electrical and magnetic fields change simultaneously is known as electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X, and gamma rays among others.

Through oscillating magnetic and electrical fields produced by their particles, electromagnetic radiation travels through space and vacuum. Sir James Clerk Maxwell, a Scottish scientist, presented the Electromagnetic Radiation theory in the early 1870s.

Heinrich Hertz, a German physicist, confirmed it experimentally. According to Maxwell, as an electrically charged particle accelerates, alternating electrical and magnetic fields are created, aiding the particle's propagation.

Gamma rays, X-rays,  radio waves, and visible light are four types of electromagnetic radiation.

What would the upper and lower control limits be for the resulting control charts (average and range)?

Answers

Answer:

Average :

UCL = 4.15

LCL = 2.65

Range :

UCL = 2.75

LCL = 0

Explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 5

Average, X = 3.4

Range, R = 1.3

A2 for n = 5 ; equals 0.577 ( X chart table)

For the average :

Upper Control Limit (UCL) :

X + A2*R

3.4 + 0.577(1.3) = 4.1501

Lower Control Limit (LCL) :

X - A2*R

3.4 - 0.577(1.3) = 2.6499

FOR the range :

Upper Control Limit (UCL) :

UCL = D4*R

D4 for n = 5 ; equals = 2.114

UCL = 2.114*1.3 = 2.7482

Lower Control Limit (LCL) :

LCL = D3*R

D3 for n = 5 ; equals = 0

how hot can the desert get​

Answers

Answer:

134 f

Explanation:

The hottest temperature ever reliably measured in a desert was 134 degrees F, in Death Valley of the Mojave Desert in 1913.

not as hot as me.jk.

Temperature. During the day, desert temperatures rise to an average of 38°C (a little over 100°F). At night, desert temperatures fall to an average of -3.9°C (about 25°F). At night, desert temperatures fall to an average of -3.9 degrees celsius (about 25 degrees fahrenheit).

Desert surfaces receive a little more than twice the solar radiation received by humid regions and lose almost twice as much heat at night. Many mean annual temperatures range from 20-25 degrees Celsius. The extreme maximum ranges from 43.5-49 degrees Celsius. Minimum temperatures sometimes drop to -18 degrees Celsius.

A rubber ball is dropped from a height of 1.5 m
(a) How long does it take to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

t =0.6

Explanation:

So this is just a basic kinematics where the only force acting on the ball is gravity (9.8 m/s2 [down] and air resistance is negligible.

∆d=vi∆t+1/2at2

Because you're dropping the ball, initial velocity is 0

1.5= 0*(∆t) + 1/2a*t2

After some rearranging, t= root ((2*∆d)/a) Therefore t= 0.5532833352 or root(15)/7 t=0.6s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

The official world land speed was recorded as 1228.0km/h on October 15,1997.

We need to find the speed in m/s.

We know that,

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

So,

[tex]v=1228\ km/h\\\\=1228\times \dfrac{1000\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\v=341.11\ m/s[/tex]

So, the required speed is 341.11 m/s.

what is the focalength of the combination of two thin renses of power -5D and -2D placeci in contact with each other?​

Answers

Answer:

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the power of the combination of lenses:

P = P₁ + P₂

where,

P = Power of Combination = ?

P₁ = Power of first lens = - 5D

P₂ = Power of second lens = - 2D

Therefore,

P = - 5D - 2D

P = - 7D

Now, the focal length can be given as:

[tex]f = \frac{1}{P} \\\\f = \frac{1}{-\ 7\ D} \\\\[/tex]

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Negative focal length indicates that combination will act as diverging lens.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Capacitor (C) = 3.33x10¯⁶ F

Energy (E) = 8.15×10¯⁴ J

Voltage (V) =?

The voltage across the capacitor can be obtained as follow:

E = ½CV²

8.15×10¯⁴ = 3.33x10¯⁶ × V²

Divide both side by 3.33x10¯⁶

V² = 8.15×10¯⁴ / 3.33x10¯⁶

Take the square root of both side

V = √(8.15×10¯⁴ / 3.33x10¯⁶)

V = 15.64 V

Thus, the voltage across the capacitor is 15.64 V

because -

A- You can't see far ahead

B- The speed limit is so slow

C- There may be other vehicles traveling in the
opposite direction

D- You may struggle to stay at the same speed

Answers

Answer:

A) you can't see far ahead

D. You may struggle to stay at the same speed.

Winding roads and sharp curves are dangerous because of centrifugal forces while taking curves, whose classic formula is described below:

[tex]F = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{r}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]F[/tex] - Centrifugal force, in newtons.[tex]v[/tex] - Speed, in meters per second.[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of curvature, in meters per second.

Sharps curves are characterized by low radii of curvature. Given that centrifugal force is inversely proportional to the square radius of curvature and it is opposed to friction force between tires and pavement, if centrifugal force is higher than maximum static friction force, then a car accident could if driver does not decelerate.

Therefore, correct choice is D.
