Maggie completed a 10000-m race at an average speed of 160
m/min. If Tom took 12.5 fewer minutes to complete the race,
what was Tom's average speed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

200m/min

Explanation:

The formula for calculating distance covered = Speed * time

If Maggie completed a 10000-m race at an average speed of 160

m/min, the the time taken by Maggie to complete the race will be expressed as;

Time = Distance/Speed

Time = 10000/160

Time = 62.5 minutes

If it took Tom 12.5 fewer minutes to complete the race, then the time taken by tom to finish the same race will be 62.5 - 12.5 = 50minutes.

To get Tom's average speed, we will use the same formula as above;

From Distance = Speed * Time

Speed = Distance/Time

Since both of them completed the same distance, distance covered by Tom is also 10000m

Tom's speed = 10000/50

Tom's speed = 200m/min

Hence Tom's average speed is 200m/min

In an effort to decrease the mAs of an exposure, the 15% rule of kVp change may be considered. Changing the original kVp of 84 using the 15% rule will have what impact

Answers

Answer:

Will result in :Greater Compton scatter interaction

Explanation

This is because The 15% rule states that changing the kVp by 15% has the same effect as doubling the mAs, or reducing the mAs by 50%; that is A 15% increase in kVp has the same effect as doubling the mAs and vice versa but in this case reducing mas causes more Compton scatter because Compton scattering occurs at a lower kvp

The distance record for someone riding a motorcycle on its rear wheel without stopping is more than 320000 m. Suppose the rider in this unusual situation travels with an initial speed of 8.00 m/s before speeding up. The rider then travels 40.0 m at a constant acceleration of 2.00 m/s2. What is the rider’s speed after the acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

  v = 15.0 m/s

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics in one dimension

          v² = v₀² + 2 a x

in the exercise indicate that the initial velocity v₀ = 8.00 m / s

the distance traveled during acceleration is x = 40.0 m

     

           

let's calculate

          v² = 8² + 2 2 40

          v = √ 224

           v = 14.97 m / s

           v = 15.0 m/s

how does the half life of an isotope relate to the stability of its nucleus?

Answers

Answer:

The longer the half-life, the more stable the nucleus is.

Explanation:

Well, you know that nuclear half-life represents the time needed for an initial sample of a radioactive substance to be halved. If this is the case, a long half-life would imply that it takes a very long time for the nuclide to decay to half of its initial mass. This of cource means that it is very stable.

A tortoise, Bernard, starting at point A travels 12 m west and then 150 millimeters (mm) east. How far west of point A is Bernard after completing these two motions? 80m+145cm+7850mm=X mm . What is X ?

Answers

Answer:

1) 11.85 m

2) 89300 mm

Explanation:

1) The tortoise starting from point A travels 12 m west and then 150 millimeters (mm) east.

The distance traveled by the tortoise is the differrence between the distance traveled west and the distance traveled east.

Distance traveled west = 12 m

Distance traveled east = 150 mm

But 1 m = 1000 m, Therefore:

Distance traveled east = 150 mm = 150/1000 m = 0.15 m

Distance west the tortoise is from point A = Distance traveled west - Distance traveled east = 12 - 0.15 = 11.85 m

2) 1 cm = 10 m, 1000 mm = 1 m. Therefore:

[tex]145\ cm = \frac{145\ cm * 10\ mm}{1\ cm} = 1450\ mm[/tex]

[tex]80\ m = \frac{80\ m * 1000 mm}{1\ m} = 80000\ mm[/tex]

X  = 80 m+145 cm+7850 mm = 80000 + 1450 + 7850 = 89300 mm

A proton moves vertically upward and perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. It deflects to the left as you watch it. What is the magnetic field direction?

Wo siblings are arguing over what way to pull a 10 kg wagon. Boris wants to pull it to the right. Boris puts 220 N of force on the wagon. Natasha wants to pull it to the left. Natasha puts 250 N of force on the wagon. A) What is the net force on the wagon?B) What is the acceleration of the wagon?(Both parts require you to include the direction with your numerical answer.)

Answers

Answer:

a) Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in a negative direction to the left

b)Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in a negative direction to the left

Explanation:

The coordinates x and y show the positive direction in x-axis ( to the right) and negative direction to the left. In north-south direction positive y values are to the north and negative values to the south

The free-body diagram shows 4 forces acting

In y-axis:

The weight ( P = m*g =  10 [kg]*9,8 [m/s²] = 98 [N] negative

Normal reaction force  Fn = P = 98 [N]  positive ( surface is frictionless)

∑Fy = 0     P - Fn = 0     P = Fn  = 98 [N]

In x-axis:

Boris pulling force to the right (positive ) 220 [N]

Natasha pulling force to the left ( negative) 250 [N]

∑Fx = m*a

220 [N] - 250 [N]  = 10 Kg * a                      [N] = Kg * m /s²

-30 [kg*m/s²]  = 10 * Kg * a

-30/10  =  - 3  m/s²  = a

Sign (-) means the direction of acceleration vector is to the left (the same direction of the movement )

Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in negative direction to the left

Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in negative direction to the left

A solenoid with 35 turns per centimeter carries a current I. An electron moves within the solenoid in a circle that has a radius of 3.0 cm and is perpendicular to the axis of the solenoid. If the speed of the electron is 3.0 ✕ 105 m/s, what is I (in A)?

Answers

Answer:

The current of the solenoid is 0.0129 A.

Explanation:

The movement of the electron within the solenoid in a circle is produced by equaling the magnetic force and the centripetal force, as follows:

[tex] F_{B} = F_{c} [/tex]

[tex] e*v \mu_{0}*n*I = \frac{m*v^{2}}{r} [/tex]

[tex] I = \frac{m*v}{e* \mu_{0}*n*r} [/tex]

Where:

I: is the current

m: is the electron's mass = 9.1x10⁺³¹ kg

v: is the electron's speed = 3.0x10⁵ m/s

μ₀: is the permeability magnetic = 4πx10⁻⁷ T.m/A

n: is the number of turns per unit length = 35/cm

r: is the radius of the circle = 3.0 cm

e: is the electron's charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C  

[tex]I = \frac{m*v}{e*\mu_{0}*n*r} = \frac{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg*3.0 \cdot 10^{5} m/s}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} T.m/A*3500/m*0.03 m} = 0.0129 A[/tex]  

Therefore, the current of the solenoid is 0.0129 A.

Where G represents universal gravitation constant, [tex]6.67*10^-^1^1 N.m^2/kg^2[/tex]

Given data

m1= 90 kg

m2= 60 kg

d= 1 m

Substituting our given data into the formula we have

[tex]F= \frac{6.67*10^-^1^1*90*60}{1^2}[/tex]

[tex]F= \frac{6.67*10^-^1^1*5.4*10^3}{1^2}\\\\F= 36*10^-^9 N[/tex]

The gravitational force between the two people in the football game is 3.6 * 10⁻⁷ N

Newton's law of gravitation states that the force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg, m₁ = first mass = 90 kg, m₂ = second mass = 60 kg, r = distance = 1 m

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

F = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg * 90 kg * 60 kg / 1² = 3.6 * 10⁻⁷ N

The gravitational force between the two people in the football game is 3.6 * 10⁻⁷ N

When you look at these spectra you can see different colors (wavelengths) at once. But each atom emits only one wavelength (one photon) at a time. o. Why are multiple wavelengths simultaneously visible

Answers

Answer:

Different wavelengths of light also have different frequencies, so the "individual" waves of light are different.

So when you see a given spectra, you are actually watching a superposition of different light waves, and as the waves do not interact that much between them, you can see the different colors.

You can think this similarly as the case with two different sound waves, one high in pitch, and another low.

You can easily identify them, as they do not collide between them.

Now, if you are asking "why the spectrum has different colors".

This is because the levels of energy in each element are different, the outer electrons have weaker bonds, so they will emit photons with less energy (larger wavelength) and so on.

So there are multiple wavelengths because electrons with stronger and weaker bonds are jumping between states at the same time.
