(a) Determine the average speed for the trip. km/h
(b) Determine the distance between the initial and final cities along the route. km

Answers

Explanation:

Solution:

Let the time be

t1=35min = 0.58min

t2=10min=0.166min

t3=45min= 0.75min

t4=35min= 0.58min

let the velocities be

v1=100km/h

v2=55km/h

v3=35km/h

a. Determine the average speed for the trip. km/h

first we have to solve for the distance

S=s1+s2+s3

S= v1t1+v2t2+v3t3

S= 100*0.58+55*0.166+35*0.75

S=58+9.13+26.25

S=93.38km

V=S/t1+t2+t3+t4

V=93.38/0.58+0.166+0.75+0.58

V=93.38/2.076

V=44.98km/h

IF A = (10i -16j) m/s B = (3i + 8j) m/s C = (6i + 20j) m/s determine a and b Such that aA + bB + C=0​

Answers

The value of a and b is 2.7 and -2.9 respectively.

The vectors A, B, and C can be represented as:

A = 10i - 16j m/s

B = 3i + 8j m/s

C = 6i + 20j m/s

The equation and equate the coefficients of the 'i' and 'j' terms on both sides:

ai + 3bi + 6 = 0 (for the 'i' component)

-16aj + 8bj + 20 = 0 (for the 'j' component)

From the first equation:

a + 3b = -6 (equation 1)

From the second equation:

-16a + 8b = -20 (equation 2)

Multiply equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 3 to eliminate 'b':

8a + 24b = -48 (equation 3)

-48a + 24b = -60 (equation 4)

Adding equation 3 and equation 4 eliminates 'b':

8a + 24b + (-48a + 24b) = -48 + (-60)

-40a = -108

a = -108 / -40

a = 2.7

Substituting the value of 'a' into equation 1:

2.7 + 3b = -6

3b = -6 - 2.7

3b = -8.7

b = -8.7 / 3

b = -2.9

Therefore, 'a' is  2.7, and 'b' is -2.9, such that aA + bB + C = 0.

A horizontal spring is attached to a wall at one end and a mass at the other. The mass rests on a frictionless surface. You pull the mass, stretching the spring beyond the equilibrium position a distance A, and release it from rest. The mass then begins to oscillate in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A. During one period, the mass spends part of the time in regions where the magnitude of its displacement from equilibrium is greater than (0.66)A— that is, when its position is between −A and(−0.66)A, and when its position is between (0.66)A and A. What total percentage of the period does the mass lie in these regions?

Answers

Answer:

54%

Explanation:

So, we have that the "magnitude of its displacement from equilibrium is greater than (0.66)A—''. Thus, the first step to take in answering this question is to write out the equation showing the displacement in simple harmonic motion which is = A cos w×t.

Therefore, we will have two instances t the displacement that is to say at a point 2π/w - a2 and the second point at a = a2.

Let us say that 2π/w = A, then, we have that a = A cos ^-1 (0.66)/2π. Also, we have that a2 = A/2 - A cos^- (0.66) / 2π.

The next thing to do is to calculate or determine the total length of of the required time. Thus, the total length is given as:

2a1 + ( A - 2a2) = 2A{ cos^-1 (0.66)}/ π.

Therefore, the total percentage of the period does the mass lie in these regions = 100 × {2a1 + ( A - 2a2) }/A = 2 { cos^-1 (0.66)}/ π × 100 = 54%.

Thus, the total percentage of the period does the mass lie in these regions = 54%.

Two point charges, with charge magnitudes q and ????, are placed a distance r apart. In this arrangement, each point charge experiences a force of magnitude F. In the three scenarios, q, ????, and r are changed to some multiple of their original values. In each case, fill in the missing value on one of the variables that will result in a force between the point charges that is equal in magnitude to the original F.

Original q Q r
Scenario 1 2q ...Q 4r
Scenario 2 ...q 2Q (1/2)r
Scenario 3 (3/2)q (3/8)Q ...r

Answers

Answer:

1)  Q ’= 8 Q ,  2)    q ’= 16 q ,  3)   r ’= ¾ r

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Coulomb's law

      F = k q Q / r²

It asks us to calculate the change of any of the parameters so that the force is always F

Original values

                q, Q, r

Scenario 1

      q ’= 2q

       r ’= 4r

     F = k q ’Q’ / r’²

we substitute

     F = k 2q Q ’/ (4r)²

     F = k 2q Q '/ 16r²

we substitute the value of F

      k q Q / r² = k q Q '/ 8r²

       Q ’= 8 Q

Scenario 2

       Q ’= Q

       r ’= 4r

we substitute

      F = k q ’Q / 16r²

      k q Q / r² = k q’ Q / 16 r²

      q ’= 16 q

Scenario 3

      q ’= 3/2 q

      Q ’= ⅜ Q

we substitute

        k q Q r² = k (3/2 q) (⅜ Q) / r’²

        r’² = 9/16 r²

        r ’= ¾ r

Geckos can walk on walls and ceilings—at least some of the adhesion is due to static electricity. Gecko feet are covered with microscopic hairs. When these hairs rub against a surface, charges separate, with the hair developing a positive charge and negative charge forming below the surface. There is an attractive force between the separated charges. This is an effective means of adhering to a surface, but it would not be without cost; two planes of charge are like two charged plates of a capacitor, which takes energy to charge. Doubling the amount of charge on each surface will increase the at- tractive force, but will also increase the energy required to separate the charge. By what factor will this energy increase?

Answers

Answer:

 U = 4 U₀

we see that the gecko must use 4 times more energy to double the force

Explanation:

For this exercise they indicate that we can approximate the situation to a charged capacitor, so the stored energy is

            U = Q² / 2C

where C is the capacitance that does not change since it is the same gecko and Q is the stored charge.  In the initial state

          U₀ = Q₀² /2C

They tell us that the load is doubled

         Q = 2Q₀

where Qo is the initial charge; the new energy is

         U = (2Q₀)² / 2C

         U = 4 Q₀² / 2C

         U = 4 U₀

where U₀ is the initial energy

Therefore we see that the gecko must use 4 times more energy to double the force

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of gravitational force, [tex]F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

From the equation above, gravitational constant G is given as;

[tex]F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} \\\\G = \frac{Fr^2}{m_1m_2}\\\\G = (F)(\frac{1}{m_1m_2})(r^2) \\\\G = (\frac{kg.m}{s^2})(\frac{1}{kg^2} )(m^2)\\\\G = \frac{m^3}{kg.s^2}[/tex]

Thus, the correct option is "C" G = m³/kg.s²

A block of mass m = 4.80 kg is suspended as shown in the diagram below. Assume the pulley to be frictionless and the mass of the strings to be negligible. If the system is in equilibrium, what will be the reading of the spring scale in newtons?

Answers

Answer:

W = 47.04 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

A block of mass 4.8 kg is suspended by the pulley and it is assumed that it is frictionless and the mass of the strings to be negligible.

We need to find the reading of the spring scale if the system is in equilibrium.

At this position, the scale reading is equal to the weight of the block such that,

W = mg, where g is the acceleration due to gravity

W = 4.8 kg × 9.8 m/s²

W = 47.04 N

So, the reading of the spring scale is 47.04 N.

wo cars are moving in the same velocity.Car A has a mass of 95 kilograms while car B has a mass of 110 kilograms.How much internia does the car b have compared to car a

Answers

Explanation:

Intertia of an object is defined as its tendency to remain in the state or rest or in state of uniform motion. It is basically the measure of mass of an object. The greater the mass of an object, greater will be its tendency to change its state of motion or state or rest. Also, lesser the mass of the object, lesser will be its tendency to change its state of motion or state of rest.

In this problem, car A has a mass of 95 kg and car B has a mass of 110 kg. Car B has more mass than car A, it will have more inertia than car A.

Hence, inertia of car B is 15 more than the inertia of car A.
