Answer:

The time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s is 0.84 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of the car, $a=+2.6\ m/s^2$

Initial speed of the car, u = 24.6 m/s

Final speed of the car, v = 26.8 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s. The acceleration of an object is given by :

$t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}$

$t=\dfrac{(26.8-24.6)\ m/s}{2.6\ s}$

t = 0.84 seconds

So, the time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s is 0.84 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

A _____ has to do with the direction of a force

Elenna [48]

Answer:

The "solid force"? ... The direction of the force always seems to be coming out of the solid surface. A direction which is perpendicular to the plane of a surface is said to be normal. The force that a solid surface exerts on anything in the normal direction is called the normal force.

Answer:

$5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by $\rho=\frac {AR}{L}$ where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and $\rho$ is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

$\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m$

Suppose an event is measured to be at a = (0,-2, 3, 5) in one reference frame. Find the components of this event in another refe

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The components of the moving frame is (8.07c, -2, 3, 9.493)

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of moving frame w.r.t original frame $v_{m}$ 0.85c

Point 'a' of an event in one reference frame corresponds to the (x, y, z, t) coordinates of the plane

a = (0, - 2, 3, 5)

Now, according the the question, the coordinates of moving frame, say (X, Y, Z, t'):

New coordinates are given by:

X = $\frac{x - v_{m}t}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v_{m}^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

X = $\frac{0 - 0.85c\times 5}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.85c)^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

X = $8.07 c$

Now,

Y = y = - 2

Z = z = 3

Now,

$t' = \frac{t - \frac{vx}{c}^{2}}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{v}{c})^{2}}}$

$t' = \frac{5 - 0}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{0.85c}{c})^{2}}} = 9.493 s$

A 5-g lead bullet traveling in 20°C air at 300 m/s strikes a flat steel plate and stops.

densk [106]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Kinetic Energy and the Energy Produced by the heat loss. In mathematical terms kinetic energy can be described as:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

Replacing we have that the Total Kinetic Energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (5*10^{-3})(300)^2$

$KE = 225J$

On the other hand the required Energy to heat up t melting point is

$Q_1 = mC_p \Delta T$

$Q_2 = L_f m$

Where,

m = Mass

$C_p =$ Specific Heat

$\Delta T =$ Change at temperature

$L_f =$ Latent heat of fussion

Heat required to heat up to melting point,

$Q = Q_1+Q_2$

$Q = mC_p \Delta T+L_f m$

$Q = 5*0.128*(327-20) + 5*24.7$

$Q = 310J$

The energy required to melt is larger than the kinetic energy. Therefore the heat of fusion of lead would be 327 ° C: The melting point of lead.
