Answer:

The change in temperature of 576.9°C will produce an elongation of 9 inches per feet in steel.

Explanation:

The formula for linear expansion of a material is:

ΔL = αLΔT

where, ΔL = change in length

             L = Original length

           ΔT = Change in temperature

             α = coefficient of linear expansion

For steel, α = 13 x 10^-6 /°C

                L = 100 ft

                ΔL = (9 in)(1 ft/12 in) = 0.75 ft

Therefore,

0.75 ft = (13 x 10^-6 /°C)(100 ft)ΔT

<u>ΔT = 576.9°C</u>

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

a) -23583J

b) 471.66N

Explanation:

Using the conservation energy theorem:

K_o+U_o+W_f=K_f+U_f\\W_f=K_f+U_f-(K_o+U_o)

The height is given by:

sin(\theta)=\frac{h}{d}\\\\h=50*sin(5^o)\\h=4.36m

substituting the values we have:

W_f=\frac{1}{2}*1500kg*((40-30)\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000h.m}{3600km.s})^2+0-1500kg*9.8m/s^2*4.36m\\W_f=-23583J*

the work is defined by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)

the force of the friction force is 180 degrees because it's opposite to the movement, so:

F_f=\frac{-23583J}{50m*cos(180)}\\F_f=471.66N

Light waves travel most slowly through a ____<br><br> A) gas<br> B) solid<br> C) liquid
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Liquid

Explanation: It can't be gas because gases are all around us and we can still see light. For solids it can't even move through a solid. Ex: If you're in a solid dome made of rock you can't get any light through. Let me know if I'm right!

The tired of a car support the weight of a stationary. If onetire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_____wit
Westkost [7]

Answer:

d) Decrease, increase, remain constant

Explanation:

If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_DECREASE____with time due to outflow of air , the surface area between the tire and the road will__INCREASE__in time,due to flattening of tire.

The net force the tire exerts on the road will_REMAIN CONSTANT____in time. It is so because force does not depend upon area. It is pressure which depends upon area. As there is no change in the weight of the car , force on the road will remain constant.
