Often times we think about insulation, we think about keeping cold items cold, such as drinks in an ice chest or the cool temper

ature in your home. But insulation also keeps things high! The same thermos that keeps your water cold keep your hot chocolate worm. How was that possible?

Answer:

So, insulation essentially works by creating a sort of barrier between the hot and the cold object. This barrier helps to reduce heat transfer by either reflecting the thermal radiation or by decreasing thermal conduction and convection from one object to the other.

A football is thrown horizontally with an initial velocity of (16.6 m/s)x^. ignoring air resistance, the average acceleration of
Andrei [34K]

Solution:

According to the equations for 1-D kinematics. The only change to them is that instead one equation that describes general motion.

So we will have to use the equations twice: once for motion in the x direction and another time for the y direction.  

v_f=v_o + at ……..(a)

 [where v_f and v_o are final velocity and initial velocity, respectively]

Now ,

Initially, there was y velocity, however gravity began to act on the football, causing it to accelerate.  

Applying this value in equation (a)  

v_yf = at = -9.81 m/s^s * 1.75 = -17.165 m/s in the y direction  

For calculating the magnitude of the equation we have to square root the given value

         (16.6i - 17.165y)  

\\ \left | V  \right |=sqrt{16.6^{2}+17.165^{2}}\\ = \sqrt{275.56+294.637225}\\= \sqrt{570.197225}\\= 23.87[/tex]

A boat has a mass of 7660 kg. Its engines generate a drive force of 4080 N due west, while the wind exerts a force of 680 N due
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

0.29 m/s due west.

Explanation:

According to newton's second law,

Net force acting on an object = mass×acceleration

From the question,

F+F₁+F₂ = ma................ Equation 1

Where F = The force generated from the engine, F₁ = Force exerted by the wind, F₂ = Force exerted due to the water, m = mass of the boat, a = acceleration of the boat.

Given: F = 4080 N , F₁ = -680 N(east), F₂ = -1160 N(east). m = 7660 kg

substitute into equation 1

4080-680-1160 = 7660(a)

2240 = 7660a

Therefore,

a = 2440/7660

a = 0.29 m/s due west.

1. What are the units of : pressure, force , area
White raven [17]

Pressure- Pascal(N/m^2)

Force- Newton

Area-m^2(Square metre)

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Pressure is force continuous force applied to an object. The applied force is always perpendicular to the surface of the object.
  • Force is a push or pulls on an object by an external body where it changes its state from rest to motion.
  • Force is said to have both magnitude and direction.
  • Area is the portion that shows the scale of a 2D form or configuration in the level. The covering area is its analog on the 2D surface of a 3D object.
