Answer:

ns for high-speed rail in the United States date back to the High Speed Ground Transportation Act of 1965. Various state and federal proposals have followed. Despite being one of the world's first countries to get high-speed trains (the Metroliner service in 1969), it failed to spread. Definitions of what constitutes high-speed rail vary, including a range of speeds over 110 mph (180 km/h) and dedicated rail lines. Inter-city railwith top speeds between 90 and 125 mph (140 and 200 km/h) is sometimes referred to in the United States as higher-speed rail.[1]

Amtrak's Acela Express (reaching 150 mph, 240 km/h), Silver Star, Northeast Regional, Keystone Service, Vermonter and certain MARC Penn Line express trains (all five reaching 125 mph, 201 km/h) are the only high-speed services in the country.

As of 2020, the California High-Speed Rail Authority is working on the California High-Speed Rail project and construction is under way on sections traversing the Central Valley. The Central Valley section is planned to open in 2029 and Phase I is planned for completion in 2031.[2]

Answer:

[tex]a=0.33\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the force is defined in terms of the mass and acceleration as follows:

[tex]F=ma[/tex]

Given the force and the mass, we can compute the acceleration as shown below:

[tex]a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{25N}{75kg}=\frac{25kg\frac{m}{s^2} }{75kg}\\ \\a=0.33\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

Best regards.

Answer:

1) x = 30 - 8 t

2) x = -10

3) x = -10 + 5 t

4) x = -10 - 4 t

Explanation:

Motion 1:  constant negative velocity calculated via the points (0, 30) and (5, -10) rendering the equation of motion  x = 30 - 8 t

Motion 2: constant position over time, so the object is not moving, and the equation of motion is x = -10

Motion 3: constant positive velocity estimated via the points (0, -10) and (2, 0), and the equation of motion is:  x = -10 + 5 t

Motion 4: constant negative velocity estimated via the points (0, -10) and (5, -30), and the equation of motion is:  x = -10 - 4 t

The starting position of motion 1 is 30 meters

the starting position for the other 3 motions is - 10 meters. And none of them is accelerated (acceleration = zero for all).

Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules

The potential energy of the man in the fifth floor of the building has increased by 11760J.

Given the data in the question;

Potential energy; [tex]P_E =\ ?[/tex]

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a particle due to its position relative to other particles. It is expressed as:

[tex]P_E = mgh[/tex]

Where m is mass of the particle, h is its height above ground level and g is acceleration due to gravity( [tex]g = 9.8m/s^2[/tex] ).

We substitute our values into the equation

[tex]P_E = 75kg\ *\ 9.8m/s^2\ *\ 16m\\\\P_E = 11760kg.m/s^2\\\\ P_E = 11760J[/tex]

Therefore, the potential energy of the man in the fifth floor of the building has increased by 11760J.

Answer:

The horizontal displacement is 20 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 10 m/s

Height = 20 m

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

[tex]s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]20=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2[/tex]

[tex]t^2=\dfrac{20\times2}{9.8}[/tex]

[tex]t=\sqrt{\dfrac{20\times2}{9.8}}[/tex]

[tex]t=2.0\ sec[/tex]

We need to calculate the horizontal displacement

Using formula of horizontal displacement

[tex]\Delta x=v_{x}\times t[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\Delta x=10\times2.0[/tex]

[tex]\Delta x=20\ m[/tex]

Hence, The horizontal displacement is 20 m.

Answer:

  φ = B sin (2π n/a   x)

Explanation:

In quantum mechanics when a particle moves freely it implies that the potential is zero (V = 0), so its wave function is

     φ = A cos kx + B sin kx

we must place the boundary conditions to determine the value of the constants A and B.

In our case we are told that the particle cannot be outside the boundary given by x = ± a / 2

therefore we must make the cosine part zero, for this the constant A = 0, the wave function remains

    φ = B sin kx

the wave vector is

      k = 2π /λ

now let's adjust the period, in the border fi = 0 therefore the sine function must be zero

         φ (a /2) = 0

          0 = A sin (2π/λ  a/2)

therefore the sine argument is

          2π /λ   a/2 = n π

          λ= a / n

we substitute

          φ = B sin (2π n/a   x)

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (5 m/s)² + 2 (2 m/s²) (5 m)

A current in the long, straight wire, which lies in the plane of rectangular loop, that also carries a current, as shown in the figure.

Find the magnitude of the net force exerted on the loop by the magnetic field created by the long wire. Answer in units of N.

Answer: Net Force = [tex]50.215.10^{-7}[/tex]N

Explanation: Force and Magnetic field are related through the following formula:

F = I.L.B.sinθ

Magnetic field (B) in a straight long wire is given by

[tex]B=\frac{\mu_{0}.I}{2.\pi.r}[/tex]

in which

[tex]\mu_{0}[/tex] is permeability of free space and is [tex]4.\pi.10^{-7}[/tex]T.m/A

I is current in the wire;

r is distance to the wire;

Examining the square loop and using the right hand rule, the top, which we will name it F₂, and the bottom, named F₄, have angle θ = 0, giving sin(0) = 0 and therefore, F₁ = F₃ = 0.

So, for the net force, the relevant forces will be on the sides parallel to the wire.

For the other forces, angle is 90°, sin(90°) = 1, then:

F = I.L.B

Replacing magnetic field:

F = [tex]\frac{\mu_{0}.I_{w}.L.I_{l}}{2.\pi.r}[/tex]

Note: The side closest to the wire is F₁, while the farthest is F₃.

Note2: As the constant unit is in meters, distance and length of side of the square loop are also in meters.

Calculating forces:

F₁ = [tex]\frac{4*\pi*10^{-7}*4.3*0.19*14}{2.\pi.0.082}[/tex]

F₁ = [tex]278.975*10^{-7}[/tex]N

Current in F₃ is flowing thoruhg the negative side of the referential, so:

F₃ = [tex]-\frac{4*\pi*10^{-7}*4.3*0.19*14}{2.\pi.0.1}[/tex]

F₃ = [tex]-228.76*10^{-7}[/tex]N

Net force is total force:

[tex]F_{net} = F_{1}+F_{3}[/tex]

[tex]F_{net}=(278.975-228.76).10^{-7}[/tex]

[tex]F_{net}=50.22.10^{-7}[/tex]

The total force acting on the square loop is [tex]F_{net}=50.22.10^{-7}[/tex]N.

[tex]t_{1} =\frac{2[16.2sin(62)]}{9.8}[/tex]

[tex]t_{1}=2.91913s[/tex]

[tex]0=[16.2sin(28)]t_{2}+1/2(-9.8)t_{2}^{2}[/tex]

[tex]t_{2} =\frac{2[16.2sin(28)]}{9.8}[/tex]

[tex]t_{2}=1.55213s[/tex]

Δt[tex]=t_{1}-t_{2}[/tex]

Δt[tex]=2.91913-1.55213[/tex]

Δt= 1.367s

You would design a parallel circuit.

_____

In a series circuit the same current would flow in both bulbs, but that current would be at half the original current level. Both bulbs would be dimmer than the first bulb was.

It is difficult to create a "complex" circuit with only two components. An "incomplete" circuit would result in no light at all.

Answer:

it obeys the law of vector addition

Explanation:

In the analytical method, we use the Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant because it obeys the law of vector addition.

The resultant of two vectors A and B is given by;

R' = A' +  B'

[tex]R = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2}[/tex]

Therefore, Pythagorean theorem is used if the two quantities are vectors and vector quantities obey the law of vector addition.

Answer:

We are given:

initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

final velocity (v) = 10 m/s

displacement (s) = 20 m

acceleration (a) = a m/s/s

Solving for 'a'

From the third equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

replacing the variables

(10)² - (0)² = 2(a)(20)

100 = 40a

a = 100 / 40

a = 2.5 m/s²

Answer:

Explanation:

For a body on a ramp with mass m, the forces acting on the body along the vertical component are the weight and the normal reaction.

The weight of the body acts in the negative y direction while the normal reaction acts in the positive y direction

Taking the sum of forces along the y component

Sum Fy = -W+R = ma

Since acceleration is zero

-W+R = m(0)

-W+R = 0

-W = -R

W = R

Hence the Normal reaction force acting on the on the body is equal to normal force
