Answer:

the pressure will decrease by 1/2

Explanation:

PV=nRT

P=(nRT)/(V)

nRT are all constant so they will equal 1

V is 2

P=1/2

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

Pe = mgh

Substitution

Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

Pe = 2452.5 J

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

$F=43570.9N$

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula $v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$ , taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

$a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}$

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

$F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}$

Which for our values is:

$F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N$

A lacrosse ball that is thrown straight upwards reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m. At what initial velocity was it thrown? (note

shtirl [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

The ball is thrown straight upward with initial velocity u

The ball reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m

At the maximum height velocity v = 0

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²

We need to find the initial velocity

The best rule to find the initial velocity is v² = u² + 2ah, where v is

the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration of

gravity and h is the height

⇒ v = 0 , h = 4.5 m , a = -9.8 m/s²

⇒ 0 = u² + 2(-9.8)(4.5)

⇒ 0 = u² - 88.2

Add 88.2 to both sides

⇒ 88.2 = u²

Take square root for both sides

⇒ u = 9.39 m/s

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

What is the motion of the object?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Thus, the object is accelerating to the left

Explanation:

The Net Force

The net force is the result of adding all the forces as vectors acting on a body.

$\vec F=\vec F_1+\vec F_2+...+\vec F_n$

Each vector can be expressed in its rectangular components Fx and Fy, and the sum is the sum of the rectangular components separately.

Second Newton's law gives the relation between the net force and the acceleration of the body:

$\vec F = m.\vec a$

We can see the acceleration is a vector with the same direction as the net force.

The diagram shows two vertical forces and two horizontal forces.

The vertical forces are acting in opposite directions and with the same magnitude, thus they cancel out, leaving zero net force in the y-axis.

The horizontal forces are opposite and with different magnitudes. Since the force acting to the left (F3) has a greater magnitude than the force acting to the right (F4), there is a net force directed to the left with a magnitude of 60 N - 20 N = 40 N

Thus, the object is accelerating to the left

Two cylindrical containers are placed on a turntable. canister A is empty; canister B contains lead shots. each canister is the

devlian [24]

Answer:

c) both containers slide off the turntable at the same turntable speed.

Explanation:

The greater the mass of the cylinder, the greater the centrifugal force acting on it. That makes up for the greater force needed to move the heavier cylinder.
