if a horse exerts a pulling force on a cart, is the reaction force the force of friction between the horse's feet and the road?

Answer:

A horse pushes the ground in a backward direction. According to Newton’s third law of motion, a reaction force is exerted on the horse in the forward direction. When the horse walks in the forward direction (with the cart attached to it), it exerts a force in the backward direction on the Earth. An equal force in the opposite direction (forward direction) is applied on the horse by the Earth. This force moves the horse and the cart forward. As a result, the cart moves forward.

Two bodies fall freely from different heights and reach the ground simultaneously. The time of descent for the first body is 1s
jok3333 [9.3K]
The initial height of the first body is given by:
h_1 =  \frac{1}{2}gt^2
where
g is the gravitational acceleration
t is the time it takes for the body to reach the ground
Substituting t=1 s, we find
h_1 =  \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(1 s)^2=4.9 m

The second body takes takes t=2 s to reach the ground, so it was located at an initial height of
h_2 =  \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2 s)^2=19.6 m

The second body started its fall 1 second before the first body, therefore when the second body started its fall, the first body was located at its initial height, i.e. at 4.9 m from the ground.

If 2.0×10^−4 C of charge passes a point in 2.0×10^−6 s , what is the rate of current flow?1.0×10^−10 A1.0×10^2 A4.0×10^−1 A4.0×1
Ipatiy [6.2K]

This problem is about the rate of the current. It's important to know that refers to the quotient between the electric charge and the time, that's the current rate.

I=\frac{Q}{t}

Where Q = 2.0×10^−4 C and t = 2.0×10^−6 s. Let's use these values to find I.

\begin{gathered} I=\frac{2.0\times10^{-4}C}{2.0\times10^{-6}\sec } \\ I=1.0\times10^{-4-(-6)}A \\ I=1.0\times10^{-4+6}A \\ I=1.0\times10^2A \end{gathered}

<em>As you can observe above, the division of the powers was solved by just subtracting their exponents.</em>

<em />

<h2>Therefore, the rate of the current flow is 1.0×10^2 A.</h2>

A wall with a surface area of 10 m2 is 2.5 cm thick. The inner surface temperature of the wall is 4150C, but the outer surface i
klio [65]

Answer:

650.65 K or 377.5°C

Explanation:

Area = A = 10 m²

Thickness of wall = L = 2.5 cm = 2.5×10⁻² m

Inner surface temperature of wall = T_i = 415°C = 688.15 K

Outer surface temperature of wall = T_o

Heat loss through the wall = 3 kW = 3×10³ W

Thermal conductivity of wall = k = 0.2 W/m K

Assumptions made here as follows

  1. There is not heat generation in the wall itself
  2. The heat conduction is one dimensional
  3. Heat flow follows steady state
  4. The material has same properties in all directions i.e., it is homogeneous.

Considering the above assumptions we use the following formula

Q=\frac {T_i-T_o}{\frac{L}{kA}}\\\Rightarrow T_o=T_i-\frac {QL}{kA}\\\Rightarrow T_o=688.15-\frac {3\times 10^{3}\times 2.5\times 10^{-2}}{0.2\times 10}\\\Rightarrow T_o=650.65~K

∴ The temperature of the outer surface of the wall is 650.65 K or 377.5°C

When one person shouts at a football game, the sound intensity level at the center of the field is 58.4 dB. When all the people
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The number of people at game are approximately 22909

Explanation:

Given data

When one person shout \beta _{1}=58.4dB

When n number of person shout together \beta _{n}=102dB

The sound intensity level during one person shout is given by:

\beta _{1}=10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\58.4=10log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\5.84=log(\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} )\\\frac{I_{1}}{I_{o}} =10^{5.84}\\I_{1}=10^{5.84}*I_{o}

The sound intensity level during n number of person shout is given by:

\beta _{n}=10log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\102=10log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\10.2=log(\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}} )\\\frac{I_{n}}{I_{o}}=10^{10.2}\\I_{n}=10^{10.2}*I_{o}

Since each person generates same sound intensity and hence total number  of persons can be determined as

 =\frac{I_{n}}{I_{1}}\\ =\frac{10^{10.2}I_{o}}{10^{5.84}I_{o}} \\=22909

Hence

The number of people at game are approximately 22909
