A car travels North for 5 miles, turns around and travels South for 8 miles.
A car travels North for 5 miles, turns around and travels South for 8 miles.

A car travels South for 5 miles, turns around and travels North for 8 miles.

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is A car travels South for 5 miles, turns around, and travels North for 8 miles.

Explanation:

Displacement is determined by the change in position. This means there is displacement if the initial position of a body such as a car is different from the final position. Also, the displacement is considered in terms of direction (North, South, East, West). In this context, if a car travels South or North and then returns to its initial position there is no displacement.

According to this, the only option that shows a displacement North is "A car travels South for 5 miles, turns around and travels North for 8 miles" because in this case, the car had a change in position as it first moved 5 miles south (a displacement of 5 miles South) and then 8 miles north, which changes the displacement to 3 miles North (5 miles South - 8 miles North = 3 miles North).

Explanation:

Which of the following scenarios is possible for the resultant velocity of an airplane in a strong wind to be 150 m/s?

A. The wind is blowing at 10 m/s. The airplane is flying against the wind at 140 m/s.

B. The wind is blowing at 20 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 130 m/s.

C. The wind is blowing at 200 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 50 m/s.

D. The wind is blowing at 50 m/s. The airplane is flying against the wind at 100 m/s.​

Answers

Answer:

B. The wind is blowing at 20 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 130 m/s.

Explanation:

From Physics we get that resultant velocity of an airplane is the sum of an absolute velocity and a relative velocity, that is:

[tex]\vec v_{A} = \vec v_{W}+\vec v_{A/W}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]\vec v_{W}[/tex] - Wind velocity, measured in meters per second.

[tex]\vec v_{A/W}[/tex] - Airplance velocity relative to wind, measured in meters per second.

[tex]\vec v_{A}[/tex] - Airplane velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we assume that [tex]\vec v_{W} = 20\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right][/tex] (The airplane flies with the wind), [tex]\vec v_{A/W} = 130\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right][/tex], then the resultant velocity of the airplane is:

[tex]\vec v_{A} = 20\,\hat{i}+130\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right][/tex]

[tex]\vec v_{A} = 150\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right][/tex]

Therefore, correct answer is B.

Answer:

B. The wind is blowing at 20 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 130 m/s.

what element has 3 protons and 4 electrons?

Answers

Answer:

Li⁻

Explanation:

# of protons = # element on the Periodic Table.

# of protons (+) + # of electrons (-) = overall charge

3 protons is the 3rd element on the Periodic Table: Lithium

All elements on the Periodic Table have a neutral charge. Lithium neutral has 3 protons and 3 electrons.

We are given 4 electrons; 3 + -4 = -1 charge overall.

Therefore, our ion is Li⁻

On an icy day, you worry about parking your car in your driveway, which has an incline of 12º. Your neighbor's driveway has an incline of 9.0º, and the driveway across the street is at 6.0º. The coefficient of static friction between tire rubber and ice is 0.15. Which driveway(s) will be safe to park in?

Answers

Answer:

Driveway across the street ([tex]\theta = 6^{\circ}[/tex]) is the only choice for a safe parking.

Explanation:

Let suppose that car is represented by a particle, then we proceed to construct its free body diagram and corresponding equations of equilibrium:

[tex]\Sigma F_{x'} = f - W\cdot \sin \theta = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1)

[tex]\Sigma F_{y'} = N-W\cdot \cos \theta = 0[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where:

[tex]f[/tex] - Static friction force, measured in newtons.

[tex]N[/tex] - Normal force on the car from the ground, measured in newtons.

[tex]W[/tex] - Weight of the car, measured in newtons.

[tex]\theta[/tex] - Driveway inclination, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

By applying definitions of maximum static friction force and weight, we expand the system of equations presented above:

[tex]\mu_{s}\cdot N -m\cdot g\cdot \sin \theta = 0[/tex] (Eq. 1b)

[tex]N - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0[/tex] (Eq. 2b)

Where:

[tex]\mu_{s}[/tex] - Static coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the car, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

Then, we substitute normal force and simplify the resulting expression:

[tex]\mu_{s}\cdot m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta -m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = 0[/tex]

[tex]\mu_{s} = \tan \theta[/tex]

[tex]\theta = \tan^{-1}\mu_{s}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

Based on such result, we can conclude that if driveway inclination is greater than value reported, then car shall not be safe in case of parking. Our reference angle is: ([tex]\mu_{s} = 0.15[/tex])

[tex]\theta = \tan^{-1} 0.15[/tex]

[tex]\theta \approx 8.531^{\circ}[/tex]

By direct comparison, we find that driveway across the street ([tex]\theta = 6^{\circ}[/tex]) is the only choice for a safe parking.

I guess that this refers to the Badminton rules, particularly to the position of the racket (or the head of the racket, where the "head" is the part with the net, that you use to hit the shuttle) when serving.

The head of the racket must be swung from below your waist. So the head of the racket must be below your waist before you do the service (With a part of the head is enough).

Then the correct option is B. Below the waist.

For a substance to change from a gas to a liquid, what must happen to its particles?

Answers

As a gas cools, its particles slow down. When particles move slowly enough for their attractions to bring them together, droplets of liquid form. This process, which is the opposite of vaporization, is called condensation. As a gas condenses to a liquid, it releases the thermal energy it absorbed to become a gas. Answer should be A.

A ping pong ball rolls off a 5.Om high table and lands on the floor, 3.0m
away from the table. How long is the ball in the air?

Answers

Answer:

The ball was 1.01 seconds in the air

Explanation:

Horizontal Motion

When an object is thrown horizontally with a speed v from a height h, the range or maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

[tex]\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}}[/tex]

If we know the value of d and h, we can solve the equation for v:

[tex]\displaystyle v=d\cdot\sqrt{\frac {g}{2h}}[/tex]

Since the horizontal speed is constant, we can calculate the time the ball was in the air by using the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{d}{v}[/tex]

The ping pong ball rolls from a height of h=5 m and lands on the floor a distance of d= 3 m away from the table. Calculate the speed:

[tex]\displaystyle v=3\cdot\sqrt{\frac {9.8}{2\cdot 5}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle v=3\cdot\sqrt{\frac {9.8}{10}}[/tex]

Calculating:

[tex]v=2.97\ m/s[/tex]

Now calculate the time:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\frac{3}{2.97}[/tex]

[tex]t=1.01\ sec[/tex]

The ball was 1.01 seconds in the air

Note: The time does not depend on the distance d at all. If we borrow the equation from free-fall motion, the time can be calculated with:

[tex]\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac {10}{9.8}}=1.01\ sec[/tex]

You are riding a bicycle. If you apply a forward force of 172 N, and you and the bicycle have a combined mass of 51 kg, what will be the forward acceleration of the bicycle? (Assume there is no friction)​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 3.37 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

[tex]acceleration = \frac{force}{mass} \\[/tex]

From the question

force = 172 N

mass = 51 kg

We have

[tex]acceleration = \frac{172}{51} \\ = 3.372549019...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

3.37 m/s²

D. A car engine heats up while the car is being driven.

Explanation:

Energy inefficiency usually involves loss of energy as other forms when they are being converted from one form to another.

The two choices that fit the description includes;

An electric motor humming as it powers a conveyor belt. This energy conversion is supposed to be from electrical to mechanical energy but there is a loss due to the sound energy produced by the motor. Heat energy produced as the car is driven also results in energy inefficiency.

Other choices do not show this inefficiency.

A. An electric motor hums as it powers a conveyor belt

D. A car engine heats up while the car is being driven.
