Lamar has been running sprints to prepare for his next football game.He has found that he can maintain his maximum speed for 45

yards.He’s thinking of running in a 5km race in a few months,but doesn’t know if he can maintain his maximum speed for the entire 5 km.Can you help him determine how far he can?

Answer:

Please refer to the explanation

Explanation:

Race distance is 5km

Top speed = 45 yards

Converting yards to kilometers:

1km equals 1093.613 yards

x = 45 yards

(1093.613 * x) = 45

x = 45 / 1093.613

x = 0.0411480 km

Where x indicates the maximum distance he can sustain his highest speed in kilometers.

Thus, from the data available, we can determine that Lamar will not be able to maintain his maximum speed for the full 5km race, as he can only sustain it for 0.0411 kilometers.

The deflection plates in an oscilloscope are 10 cm by 2 cm with a gap distance of 1 mm. A 100 volt potential difference is sudde
Maru [3345]

Explanation:

Data provided:

Area A = 10 cm×2 cm = 20×10⁻⁴ m²

Separation distance d between the plates = 1 mm = 1×10⁻³ m

Battery voltage, or emf = 100 V

Resistance = 1025 ohm

Solution:

In an RC circuit, the voltage across the plates varies with time t. At the outset, the voltage matches that of the battery, V₀ = emf = 100V. However, after a certain time t, both the resistance and capacitance alter this, leading to a final voltage V expressed as

V = V_{0}(1-e^{\frac{-t}{RC} } )\\\frac{V}{V_{0} } = 1-e(^{\frac{-t}{RC} }) \\e^{\frac{-t}{RC} } = 1- \frac{V}{V_{0} }

Applying the natural logarithm to both sides,

e^{\frac{-t}{RC} } = 1- \frac{V}{V_{0} } \\\frac{-t}{RC} = ln(1-\frac{V}{V_{0} } )\\t = -RCln(1 - \frac{V}{V_{0} })

t = -RC ln (1-\frac{V}{V_{0} })        (1)

Next, we can determine the capacitance using the plates' area.

C = ε₀A/d

  = \frac{(8.85*10^{-12))} (20*10^{-4}) }{1*10^{-3} }

  = 18×10⁻¹²F

We can now find the time it takes for the voltage to drop from 100 to 55 V by substituting C, V₀, V, and R values into equation (1)

t = -RC ln (1-\frac{V}{V_{0} })

 = -(1025Ω)(18×10⁻¹² F) ln( 1 - 55/100)

 = 15×10⁻⁹s

= 15 ns

Determine the final state and temperature of 100 g of water originally at 25.0°c after 50.0 kj of heat have been added to it.
inna [3103]
The heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is represented by
Q=m C_p \Delta T
where m stands for the mass of the substance and C_p indicates the specific heat of the substance. In this situation, we possess m=100~g=0.1~Kg and C_p=4.19~KJ/(Kg K), the specific heat of water.
Consequently, we can ascertain the temperature rise \Delta T:
\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_p}= \frac{50~KJ}{0.1~Kg cdot 4.19~KJ/(Kg K)}=119~K =119^{\circ}C
Initially, the water's temperature was 25^{\circ}C, so the end temperature should be
T_f = 25^{\circ}C+119^{\circ}C=144^{\circ}C
Thus, the water is expected to be vapor by now.

However, to give a more accurate statement, during the liquid to vapor transition, the heat added to the system is used to break molecular bonds instead of raising the system's temperature. The heat necessary for the phase change from liquid to vapor is expressed as
Q=m C_L=0.1~Kg \cdot 2265~KJ/Kg=226.5~KJ
where C_L denotes the latent heat of vaporization for water.
Nevertheless, the initial heat input of 50 KJ is less than this requirement, indicating there isn't sufficient heat to finish the liquid-vapor transition. Therefore, the water will remain in the liquid-vapor change phase at a temperature of 100^{\circ}C (the temperature at which the phase change begins)

kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

a)  τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²

Explanation:

a) The torque can be expressed as

        τ = r x F

To tackle this equation, using the determinant approach is the most straightforward method

        \tau =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&y&z\\F_{x}&F_{y} &F_{z}\end{array}\right]  

The resulting expression is

      τ = i ^ (y F_{z} - z F_{y}) + j ^ (z Fₓ - x F_{z}) + k ^ (x F_{y} - y Fₓ)

b) Now let's compute

     τ = i ^ (0.075 1.4 -0.035 8.4) + j ^ (0.035 2.8 - 4.07 1.4) + k ^ (4.07 8.4 - 0.075 2.8)

     τ = i ^ (- 0.189) + j ^ (-5.6) + k ^ (33,978)

     τ = (-0.189i ^ -5.6 j ^ + 33.978k ^) N m

c) To find angular acceleration, we use

       τ = I α

       α = τ / I

The moment of inertia being a scalar means that only the magnitude of each component changes, orientation remains constant.

           

     α = (-0.189i^  -5.6 j^  + 33.978k^) / 241

     α = (-7.8 10⁻⁴ i ^ - 2.3 10⁻² j ^ + 1.4 10⁻¹ k ^) rad / s²

Keith_Richards [3271]
Power is defined as the speed at which work is performed on an object. Like all rates, power is measured in relation to time. It reflects how quickly a task is completed. Two identical tasks can be executed at varying speeds - one slower and the other faster. The equation P = Fv can be used, where P symbolizes power, F denotes force, and V represents average velocity. Calculating the average velocity gives us V = P/F, or V = (5.8 x 10^4 W) / (2.1 x 10^4 N), resulting in V = 2.8 m/s.
