If you lie down on the ice and begin to crawl, this will spread out your weight more evenly and make it less likely for the ice to suffer a critical failure, in which you might fall below the surface of the ice and into the water. You have better weight distribution by being on more than two points - only your two feet. By crawling you disperse your weight to possibly up to eight points or more. This includes hands, elbows, knees, feet, chest. The dispersing of the weight takes significant pressure off of just one or two points, because as you are walking you are also most likely lifting a foot. By crawling, you remain in constant contact with your weight spread more evenly.

Answer:magnitude -5; angle 160°

Explanation:

Vector A is described as having magnitude 5 and angle -20°.

To get an equivalent vector, we either leave the magnitude at 5 and add 360° to the angle, or we reverse the magnitude to -5 and add 180° to the angle.

5 @ -20° = 5 @ 340°

5 @ -20° = -5 @ 160°

The third one is the answer.

How does the area of 0.3 m2 of iron change when heated from 20 ° C to 60 ° C?

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The quantitative relationship between heat transfer and temperature change contains all three factors: Q = mcΔT, where Q is the symbol for heat transfer, m is the mass of the substance, and ΔT is the change in temperature. The symbol c stands for specific heat and depends on the material and phase. The specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of 1.00 kg of mass by 1.00ºC. The specific heat c is a property of the substance; its SI unit is J/(kg ⋅ K) or J/(kg ⋅ ºC). Recall that the temperature change (ΔT) is the same in units of kelvin and degrees Celsius. If heat transfer is measured in kilocalories, then the unit of specific heat is kcal/(kg ⋅ ºC).

When working with a powered instrument, the swirling effect produced by the water stream within the confined space of a periodon

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Acoustic microstreaming

Explanation:

Acoustic microstreaming is the swirling effect produced by water stream confined in a spaced of a periodontal pocket.

It is the movement of water in a particular direction as a result of mechanical pressure within the fluid body.
They are often used in dental procedures to remove particulates from the teeth.
It mostly relies on the properties of sound waves to achieve this goal

If a student flicks a stationary 0.1 kg ball with 5N of force for 0.1 seconds. What is its final

Alisiya [41]

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Force on the ball = 5N

time taken = 0.1s

Unknown:

final speed of the ball = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".

Force = mass x acceleration equation 1

Acceleration =

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

T is the time taken

U = O since it is a stationary body;

a = $\frac{V}{T}$

Input "a" into equation 1

F = m x $\frac{V}{T}$

5 = 0.1 x $\frac{V}{0.1}$

V = 5m/s
