Un móvil recorre una trayectoria en línea recta de 6000 metros y demora 30 minutos. ¿Cuál es su rapidez expresada en Km/h?

Answers

Answer:

La rapidez del móvil es 12 kilómetros por hora.

Explanation:

Asumamos que el móvil experimenta un movimiento rectilíneo uniforme, cuya ecuación cinemática es la siguiente:

[tex]v = \frac{x}{t}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Distancia recorrida, en kilómetros.

[tex]t[/tex] - Tiempo, en horas.

[tex]v[/tex] - Rapidez, en kilómetros por hora.

Si tenemos que [tex]x = 6000\,m[/tex] y [tex]t = 30\,min[/tex], entonces la rapidez del móvil es:

[tex]v = \frac{6000\,m\times \frac{1}{1000}\,\frac{km}{m}}{30\,min \times \frac{1}{60}\,\frac{h}{min} }[/tex]

[tex]v = 12\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

Let's first consider the dynamics behind the motion in this video. After the student releases the wheel by cutting the cord, what forces are acting on the wheel

Answers

Answer:

Hello. You did not provide the video to which the question refers, however, given the context of your question, we can consider that the forces acting on the wheel are the weight of the wheel, the tension that this weight promotes on the rope and the normal force of the axle.

Explanation:

According to the context of the question, we can see that the wheel is being pulled by a rope. The weight of the wheel is the first force that acts on it, promoting resistance to the impulse that the rope promotes on the wheel. When this wheel is pulled by the rope, the weight of the wheel creates tension in the rope, which stretches and becomes tensioned in response to this force. However, this tension is also a force acting on the wheel, as is the normal force on the axis between these two elements.

Why does time have a direction? Please give your ideas I want to see them. Brainliest f0r most effort.:)

Answers

Answer:

it's a rule like water !!!!

Explanation:

Most importantly, time appears to run forward always never backwards. in other words there's perceived arrow of time and there's thermodynamic arrow of time, and they always point in a forward direction

for every system there are more states that seem chaotic then states that seem ordered.

the arrow of time seems to have something to do with that tendency. but to get from one instance to another where things get more entropy, we already need some kind of time, gotta admit that.

some (physicists) believe that time is an illusion, that the whole universe is already set in stone, like a block (the idea is therefore called block universe). from the perspective of a godlike outside observer the universe would be like a book, or a 4D movie. the characters might feel a movement of things in a direction, but rewinding it wouldn't feel different in any instance because the order in wich things happen is already written.

a different idea is that there are infinite many different futures and the further they are away, the less we can know for sure about them in a physical way. and this might also be work for the past, so that different parts could lead to one present.

when macroscopic information is deleted, it might not be reversible, so the past gets ultimately blurry. one example for deletion of macroscopic information this is the Library of Alexandria wich burned down.

all the quantum information is still conserved, but the order of things (like letters on pages) is lost and could have been in different configurations before. we can't ultimately not even see the past, as much as we would try.

personally the idea that the past is written in stone but the future is in flux doesn't make any sense for me. because than I could have free will now, but not from the perspective 10 days later.

the present would be a very special thing than, the stage where the universe likes to play.

maybe we can get a grasp on time if we look at it like rules for a game, like a cardboard game.

To get from one configuration to the next ,we must follow rules. like throwing dice and moving in monopoly.

gravity would be a simple real world example for such a rule, a natural law.

But no one would have a firm clue where this rules came from.

TLDR: I don't know and neither does anyone else for sure, not even top notch scientists.

the hardest questions are easy to formulate, but maybe even impossible for us to answer in a satisfying way. I hope we will understand those hard questions better one day, and maybe even get answers.

help helphelp it is 90km per hr​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for acceleration is

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity divided by the time. I first need to put the units all in the same terms. We have the velocity given as km/hr, but the time is given in seconds and that's not gonna work. I will change the velocity to km/sec:

[tex]90\frac{km}{hr}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}=.025\frac{km}{s}[/tex] That's the value we will use for the final velocity of this car in the equation for acceleration:

[tex]a=\frac{.025-0}{10}=.0025\frac{km}{s^2}[/tex]

The second part of this problem asks how far the car travels in this 10 seconds. We just determined that the car can travel .025 km in 1 second, so in 10 seconds the car travels 10(.025) = .25 km

At what common temperature will a block of wood and a block of metal both feel neither hot nor cold to the touch? 1. when the temperature of the blocks is higher than the temperature of your hand 2. when the temperature of the blocks is the same as the temperature of your hand 3. when the temperature of the blocks is lower than the temperature of your hand 4. at room temperature 5. at the freezing point

Answers

When the temperature of the blocks is the same as the temperature of your hand.

When the temperature of the blocks is the same as the temperature of your hand, you feel neither hot nor cold to the touch. Hence, option ( 3) is correct.

What is temperature?

Temperature is a unit used to describe hotness or coldness. It can be stated in terms of any number of arbitrary scales and shows the direction in which heat energy will naturally flow, i.e., from a hotter body to a colder body (one at a lower temperature).

Temperature is not the same as the energy of a thermodynamic system; for instance, an iceberg has a significantly larger total heat energy than a match, despite the fact that a match is burning at a much higher temperature.

If you touch a block that is at higher than or  at lower than  the temperature of your hand, you feel hot or cold respectively. But,  when the temperature of the blocks is the same as the temperature of your hand, you feel neither hot nor cold to the touch.

Explanation:

A ball is thrown vertically upward. As it rises, what happens to its potential energy?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

As the ball rises, its PE increases because the potential energy is equal to the mass of the ball times gravity times the height of the ball. The higher the height, the higher the PE.

Answer:

According to the law of conservation of energy its kinetic energy is getting converted in to potential energy because of gain in height. So, if the velocity of a ball goes on decreasing when it is thrown vertically upwards. When its velocity becomes zero, its potential energy becomes maximum.

Mike is serving the volleyball for the second time in a volleyball game. If the ball leaves his hand with twice the velocity it had on the first serve, its horizontal range R would be:

Answers

Answer:

His new horizontal range is 4 times his initial range.

Explanation:

Since Mike serves the ball with velocity, u, his horizontal range is

R = u²sin2Ф/g where Ф is the angle between u and the horizontal.

Now, if on his second serve, the ball leaves his hand with twice the velocity of his initial serve, the new velocity is v = 2u.

So, the new range R' = v²sin2Ф/g

R' = (2u)²sin2Ф/g

R' = 4u²sin2Ф/g

Since R = u²sin2Ф/g,

R' = 4u²sin2Ф/g

R' = 4R

So, his new horizontal range is 4 times his initial range.

After bringing them in contact
with each other, they are again placed at the same distance apart, now the force of repulsion between them is 0.108 N. Calculate the final charge on each of them.​

Answers

Answer:

Let the initial charges be q1 and q2 respectively.

After they come in contact, the charges are rearranged such that they acquire same charge.

let us say that charge on each of them is Q.

They are again brought apart at a distance of 0.9 m. Hence, the force between them will be given as

F = kQ2 / r2

0.025 = (9×109 x Q2) / 0.92

Q2 = 0.025 x 0.92 / 9×109

Determining the Req of the association and the total current flowing through the circuit, we will find:

Answers

Answer:

Option D. 5Ω e 0.6 A

Explanation:

1. Determination of the equivalent resistance.

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of resistor B and resistor C. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor B (R₆) = 2 Ω

Resistor C (R꜀) = 2 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (R₆꜀) =?

R₆꜀ = R₆ × R꜀ / R₆ + R꜀ (parallel connection)

R₆꜀ = 2 × 2 / 2 + 2

R₆꜀ = 4 / 4

R₆꜀ = 1 Ω

Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor A (Rₐ) = 2 Ω

Equivalent resistance of resistor B and C (R₆꜀) = 1 Ω

Resistor D (Rₔ) = 2 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (R) =?

R = Rₐ + R₆꜀ + Rₔ (series connection)

R = 2 + 1 + 2

R = 5 Ω

Thus, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is 5 Ω

2. Determination of the total current in the circuit.

Potential difference (V) = 3 V

Equivalent resistance (R) = 5 Ω

Total current (I) =?

V = IR

3 = I × 5

Divide both side by 5

I = 3 / 5

I = 0.6 A

Thus, the total current in the circuit is 0.6 A

Summary:

Equivalent resistance = 5 Ω

Current = 0.6 A

An emergency relief plane is dropping a care package from a plane to a group of medical personnel working for a relief agency in an African village. The package is designed to land in a small lake, inflate an attached raft upon impact, and finally resurface with the raft side down. The plane will be moving horizontally with a ground speed of 59.1 m/s. The package will be dropped a horizontal distance of 521 m from the intended target location. At what altitude above the pond must the plane be flying in order to successfully accomplish this feat?

Answers

Answer:

The altitude of the plane is 379.5 m.

Explanation:

Initial horizontal velocity, u = 59.1 m/s

Horizontal distance, d = 521 m

let the time taken by the packet to cover the distance is t.

Horizontal distance = horizontal velocity x time

521 = 59.1 x t

t = 8.8 s

let the vertical height is h .

Use second equation of motion in vertical direction.

show that pv=nrt has the same unit with energy​

Answers

Answer:

The unit of the equation P·V = n·R·T is the Joules which is the same as the unit of energy

Explanation:

The unit of energy is Joules, with symbol J

The given equation for an ideal gas is P·V = n·R·T

Where;

P = The pressure of the gas with units Pascals, Pa

V = The volume of the gas, with units m³

n = The number of moles with unit moles

R = The universal gas constant = 8.314 J/(mol·K)

T = The temperature, with units, Kelvin, K

Therefore, we get;

P·V has unit 1 Pa × 1 m³ = 1 N/m² × 1 m³ = 1 N·m = 1 Joule

Similarly, we get

n·R·T with units n mole × 8.314 J/(mol·K) × 1 K = 8.314·n Joules

Therefore, P·V = n·R·T, has the unit of Joules which is the same unit with energy.
