Answer:
True
Explanation:
Thats is true since it cannot be a vector because speed only gives a magnitude, not a direction as well.
A speed that will permit a train or other equipment to stop within one half the range of vision short of a train, engine, railroad car, man or equipment fouling a track, stop signal or a derail or switch lined improperly. When a train or engine is required to move at restricted speed, the crew must keep a lookout for a broken rail and not exceed 20 mph:__________
Answer:
This is called restricted speed
Ken received a 66 on his first math exam, which counted for 20% of his final grade; he now believes that he won't be able to pass the class. His conclusion best illustrates a pessimistic outlook. the fight-or-flight response. problem-focused coping. relative deprivation.
Answer:
His conclusion best illustrates a pessimistic outlook.
Explanation:
As seen in the question above, Ken got 20% of his final grade in the first test he did for this class, that is, there will be other tests that can provide him to reach the grade needed to pass the class. However, even if there are possibilities, he believes that he will not pass the class, he does not have a positive and optimistic view of his future in this class and is sure that he will fail. This negative view of the future is an example of a pessimistic outlook.
If you look at faint stars, you can see them more easily on the edges of your vision than if you try to look directly at them. Why is this true?
Answer:
The retina comprises of rod and cone cells . The rod cells are responsible for black and white vision and require low light levels while the cone cells are responsible for color vision and require good/high light levels for better functioning.
When faint stars are looked at on the edges of the vision it allows more light from faint objects to strike the rod cells which then becomes more visible.
A 2-kg cart, traveling on a horizontal air track with a speed of 3m/s, collides with a stationary 4-kg cart. The carts stick together. The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of
Answer:
The impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the first cart, m₁ = 2 kg
initial speed of the first car, u₁ = 3 m/s
mass of the second cart, m₂ = 4 kg
initial speed of the second cart, u₂ = 0
Let the final speed of both carts = v, since they stick together after collision.
Apply the principle of conservation of momentum to determine v
m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
2 x 3 + 0 = v(2 + 4)
6 = 6v
v = 1 m/s
Impulse is given by;
I = ft = mΔv = m(
The impulse exerted by the first cart on the second cart is given;
I = 2 (3 -1 )
I = 4 N.s
The impulse exerted by the second cart on the first cart is given;
I = 4(0-1)
I = - 4 N.s (equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the impulse exerted by the first).
Therefore, the impulse exerted by one cart on the other has a magnitude of 4 N.s.
Suppose that you have been chosen for a space mission to a distant planet. Due to the length of time you'll be away from Earth you must carry out physical activity every day. On earth your, strength and conditioning trainer has determined you must do 90 minutes of exercise every day. If the vehicle is travelling at 0.80 c how much time, according to a timer on the space vehicle should you be active to meet your physical activity requirement?
Answer:
I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.
Explanation:
Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.
So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)
t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)
= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)
= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)
= 9/√(1 - (0.64)
= 9/√0.36
= 9/0.6
= 15 hr
So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.
what is the best defintion of efficency
Answer: Efficiency signifies a peak level of performance that uses the least amount of inputs to achieve the highest amount of output.
Explanation: It minimizes the waste of resources such as physical materials, energy, and time while accomplishing the desired output.
Answer:
The efficiency of a simple machine is defined as the ratio of useful work done by the machine ( output work) to the total work out into the machine ( input work).
Explanation:
EfficiencyIf a machine overcomes a load ' L ' and the distance travelled by the load is 'Ld' , the work done by the load is L× LD. It is also called output work or useful work.
Therefore, [tex] \boxed{Output \: work \: = L \: \times \: Ld}[/tex]
Likewise, The effort applied to overcome the load is 'E' and the distance covered by effort is 'Ed' , the work done by effort is E × Ed. It is also called input work.
Therefore, [tex] \boxed{Input \: work = E \times Ed}[/tex]
The efficiency of a simple machine is defined as the ratio of output work to the input work .
Therefore, [tex] \boxed{Efficiency ( η)= \frac{outpt \: work}{input \: work} \times 100\%}[/tex]
Efficiency is expressed in percentage. It is a ratio of two works. A machine is never 100% efficient. It is because no machine is friction free and due to friction, some of the input energy is wastes in the form of heat energy.

A rock is thrown at a window that is located 16.0 m above the ground. The rock is thrown from the ground at an angle of 40.0° above horizontal with an initial speed of 30.0 m/s and experiences no appreciable air resistance. If the rock strikes the window on its upward trajectory, from what horizontal distance from the window was it released?
Answer:
x = 27.3 m
Explanation:
This is a projectile launching exercise, let's start by looking for the time it takes for the rock to reach the height of the window.
Let's use trigonometry to find the velocities of the rock
sin 40 = [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] / v
cos 40 = v₀ₓ / v
v_{oy}= v sin 40
v₀ₓ = v cos 40
v_{oy} = 30 sin 40 = 19.28 m / s
v₀ₓ = v cos 40
v₀ₓ = 30 cos 40 = 22.98 m / s
we look for the time
[tex]v_{y}^2[/tex] = v_{oy}^2 - 2 g y
v_{y}^2 = 19.28 2 - 2 9.8 16 = 371.71 - 313.6 = 58.118
v_{y} = 7.623 m / s
we calculate the time
v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt
t = (v_{oy} - v_{y}) / g
t = (19.28 -7.623) / 9.8
t = 1,189 s
since the time is the same for both movements let's use this time to find the horizontal distance
x = v₀ₓ t
x = 22.98 1,189
x = 27.3 m
A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.00 cm thick flat piece of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes at an incident angle of 30 degrees. (a) At what angles do the two colors emerge
Answer:
The color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.
Explanation:
The angle at which the two colors emerge can be calculated using the Snell's Law:
[tex]n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})[/tex]
Where:
n₁ is the refractive index of the incident medium (air) = 1.0003
n₂ is the refractive index of the refractive medium:
blue light in crown glass = 1.524
red light in crown glass = 1.512
θ₁ is the angle of the incident light = 30°
θ₂ is the angle of the refracted light
For the red wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.512}) = 19.32 ^{\circ} [/tex]
For the blue wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.524}) = 19.16 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Therefore, the color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.

A group of air particles in a balloon are spread far apart and moving rapidly around inside the balloon. The balloon is placed in a refrigerator for 30 minutes. What would you expect to happen to the appearance of the balloon? Explain your answer in terms of particle movement and their change in temperature. The balloon is removed from the refrigerator and placed on the kitchen counter. What would you expect to happen to the appearance of the balloon? Explain your answer in terms of particle movement and their change in temperature.
Answer:
1) The balloon will shrink
2) The balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape
Explanation:
By the kinetic theory of gases, we have;
[tex]v_{rms} = \sqrt{\dfrac{3 \cdot R \cdot T}{MW} }[/tex]
[tex]P = \dfrac{n \cdot MW \cdot vrms^2}{3 \cdot V}[/tex]
Where;
[tex]v_{rms}[/tex] = RMS Speed
R = The universal gas constant
T = The temperature
MW = The Molecular weight
n = The number of moles
V = The volume
P = The pressure
1) When the balloon is placed in the refrigerator for minutes, the temperature inside the balloon will drop and RMS speed will reduce, however due to the elastic wall of the balloon, the pressure will remain the same therefore the volume will reduce and the balloon will shrink
2) When the balloon is placed on the kitchen counter, the temperature inside the balloon will rise leading to the increase in the RMS speed which will raise the pressure effect on the wall of the balloon as the balloon is made of elastic material, as the pressure rises, the wall expands to keep the pressure constant and the volume occupied by the air particles will increase, the balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape.
A model rocket blasts off from the ground, rising straight upward with a constant acceleration that has a magnitude of 76.8 m/s2 for 1.99 seconds, at which point its fuel abruptly runs out. Air resistance has no effect on its flight. What maximum altitude (above the ground) will the rocket reach?
Answer:
Explanation:
Take note that when the fuel of the rocket is consumed, the acceleration would be zero. However, at this phase the rocket would still be moving up until all the forces of gravity would dominate and change the direction of the rocket. Hence, there will be a need to calculate two distances, one from the ground until the point where the fuel is consumed and from that point to the point where the gravity would change the direction.
Given:
a = 76.8 m/s^2
t = 1.99 s
Solution:
d = vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2)
d = (0) (1.99) + 0.5 (76.8) (1.99)^2
d = 0+38.4×3.9601
d = 152.068m
vf = vi + at
vf = 0 + 76.8 (1.99)
vf = 152.83 m/s (velocity when the fuel is consumed completely)
Then, we calculate the time it takes until it reaches the maximum height.
vf = vi + at
0 = 152.83+(-9.8) (t)
0 = 152.83 + (-9.8) (t)
-152.83 = -9.8t
t = 152.83/9.8 s
t = 15.59s
Then, the second distance
d= vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2)
d = 152.83 (15.59) + 0.5 (-9.8) (15.59^2)
d = 2382.6197- 1190.93
d = 1191.68m
Then, we determine the maximum altitude:
d1 + d2 = 152.068 m + 1191.68m = 1343.748m

A truck mass 8000 kg and a car a mass 1000
kg are travelling at the same velocity. Which one has greater kinetic energy ? Why?
Answer:
K.E of truck > K.E of car
Explanation:
Mass of the truck = 8000Kg
K.E=[tex]\frac{1}{2} mv[/tex]
K.E =[tex]\frac{1}{2}*8000*v\\ 4000v[/tex]
Mass of the car = 1000 Kg
K.E of the car =[tex]\frac{1}{2}*1000*v\\ 500v[/tex]
Therefore Kinetic energy of the truck is greater than that of the car
An archer shoots an arrow in the air, horizontally. However, after moving some
distance, the arrow falls to the ground. Name and define the initial force that sets
the arrow in motion. Explain why the arrow ultimately falls down.
Answer:
The name of the force is elastic (spring) force
Explanation:
The elastic force which is the restoration force of an elastic (spring like) object that tries to return to its initial non-stretched state built up by the pulling of the bow by the archer (using the muscles) pushes on the arrow which the archer releases the same time he leaves the bow string, and the arrow flies in the direction already pointed by the archer
The arrow ultimately falls down due to gravity forces that acts on all objects within the Earths gravitational field. However due to the speed of constant horizontal speed of the arrow and increasing downward speed of the due to the gravity force, the falling of the arrow looks disappointing.

if a direction is somewhere between North and East it is measured in _____?
Answer:
degrees
Explanation:
If a direction is somewhere between north and east, it is measured in degrees.
This measurement will be possible thanks to the existence of geographical coordinates that are some 'imaginary lines' that help us find our location on the earth's surface. These lines are called latitude and longitude, both of which are measured in degrees.
It is like a sea battle game where you have to combine the rows and columns in order to identify where the targets are located. Geographic coordinates work the same way, you must combine the rows and columns of the planisphere to identify the locations of the planet. So the lines would be the latitudes and the columns the longitudes.

Shortly after receiving a traffic ticket for speeding, Fred made numerous comments about the road signs being inadequate and is GPS telling him a different speed limit. This would be an example of:
Answer:
External locus of control
Explanation:
External locus of control is an attitude people possess that makes them attribute their failures or successes to factors other than themselves. The opposite of this type of attitude is the Internal locus of control where the individuals take responsibility for the outcomes of their actions whether good or bad. One good thing about the external locus of control is that when the individuals with this characteristic record successes, they attribute it to others and this presents them as people with team spirit. However, when they record failures, they do not want to take the blame, but rather attribute it to others.
Fred exhibits an external locus of control because he attributed his speeding to other factors like the road signs and GPS instead of fully admitting that it was his fault.

A person holds a 25 kg (250 newton) bag of cement over his head and moves it a distance of 10 m, taking 2 minutes, while another person carries it on a wheelbarrow that same distance, taking 1 minute.Who does more work ? What is the power of each person?
Explanation:
Assuming the 10 m distance is the vertical displacement, the work done by both people is the same.
Work = force × distance
W = (250 N) (10 m)
W = 2500 J
The power of the first person is:
Power = work / time
P = 2500 J / 120 s
P = 20.83 W

High voltage power is often carried in wire bundles made up of individual strands. In your initial post to the discussion, discuss the forces on the strands of wire due to the current flowing through them. What would happen if the force acted opposite of the known behavior? Provide a detailed description.
Answer:
There will be a huge problem of holding the wire strands together, and the power losses will also be amplified.
Explanation:
The force per unit length on two current carrying conductors, lying parallel to each other is proportional to the product of the current through the conductors, and inversely proportional to their distance apart. This force is attractive if the current flows through these conductors in the same direction, and is repulsive if it flows in the opposite direction.
For the strand of wire that make up a high voltage wire bundle, there will be a force of attraction pulling the wires closer to each other, and they will experience the maximum pulling force possible, since they lie next to each other. This force helps to hold these wires in a high tension wire strand together, limiting the area, and reducing "skin effect."
In the case that this wires in the wire strand acts in opposite of the known behavior, the wires will repel and push each other apart. This pushing apart will increase power loss due "skin effect" which is increased by an increase in exposed surface area of the wire strands. This will pose a big problem for high tension transmission.
On a frictionless air track, a 0.30 kg glider moving at 0.40m/s to the right collides with a stationary 0.80kg glider moving at 0.15 m/s to the left. The collision is cushioned by a bumper made of perfectly elastic spring steel. a. What is the velocity of each glider after the collision? b. What is the minimum amount of total kinetic energy during the collision? c. Where is the missing energy?
Answer:
Explanation:
It is the case of perfectly elastic collision . So we shall apply formula of velocity after collision as follows .
Let m₁ and m₂ be the mass colliding with velocity u₁ and u₂ and their velocity become v₁ and v₂ after collision .
[tex]v_1=\frac{(m_1-m_2)u_1 }{m_1+m_2)} +\frac{2 m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}[/tex]
Putting the values
[tex]v_1=\frac{ (.30-.80).40 }{( .30+.80)} +\frac{2\times .80\times(-.15) }{(.30+.80 )}[/tex]
= - 0.4 m /s
So direction of .30 kg mass will be reversed .
[tex]v_2=\frac{ ( m_2-m_1) u_2 }{( m_1+m_2)} +\frac{2 m_1u_1}{(m_1+m_2)}[/tex]
putting the values
[tex]v_2=\frac{ ( .80-.30)(-.15) }{( .30+.80)} +\frac{2 \times.30\times.40}{(.30+.80)}[/tex]
= .15 m /s
The direction of .80 kg will become from left to right ie its direction will be reversed .
b ) Minimum amount of kinetic energy will be at the position when they move with common velocity
common velocity
v = .3 x .4 - .8 x .15 / (.3 + .8)
= 0
c )
Missing energy is stored as elastic potential energy in the spring .
Can someone please illustrate how the refracted ray will look like?
Answer
As the angle of incidence increases in Figure 2.8, a point is finally reached where the refracted ray does not emerge at the second layer but lie along the interface. This particular angle of incidence at which the angle of refraction is 90° and the refracted ray lies along the interface is known as the critical angle. At and beyond the critical angle, there is no transmitted ray and therefore a very high reflected ray will be recorded .
Therefore,
sinθisin90=Vp1Vp2
But, sin 90 = 1.
At critical angle,
sinθcritical=Vp1Vp2
A critical refracted wave travels along the interface between layers and is refracted back into the upper layer at the critical angle. The waves refracted back into the upper layer are called head waves or first-break refractions because at certain distances from a source, they are the first arriving energy. Recorded first-break refraction is shown in Figure 2.10.
Note that these first-break refractions can give us important information about the shallow velocities on land seismic data.
Note also that seismic data are acquired in such a way that reflections from horizons of interest are in the pre-critical region, even at the farthest offset in the data.
In reality, part of the seismic energy arriving at an interface is transmitted and refracted, and another part of the energy is reflected at that same interface. Given that there are many reflectors in the subsurface, there will be many paths from source to receiver, each of them with a different travel time. The proportion of energy reflected depends on the material properties of the two bounding layers and on the angle of incidence
