Explain how horizontal motion can be uniform while vertical motion is accelerated.

1 answer:

7 0

In projectile motion horizontal motion has zero acceleration and when there is no air resistance acting on the object the motion will be uniform. Motion in the vertical direction is accelerated downwards to to the acceleration due to gravity

Three thermometers are in the same water bath. After thermal equilibrium is established, it is found that the Celsius thermomete

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

OPTION A, Kelvin Thermometer is Incorrect

Explanation:

Now, if you consider best two out of three results, then celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers read the same value, meaning both are right.

1) K = °C + 273

K = 100°C + 273

k = 373°C

Kelvin Thermometer is Incorrect

2) $C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}$

when we have 212°F

$C = \frac{212 - 32}{1.8} \\\\= 100^\circ C$

which is correct

Two particles are traveling through space. At time t the first particle is at the point (−1 + t, 4 − t, −1 + 2t) and the second

Pie

Answer:

Yes, the paths of the two particles cross.

Location of path intersection = ( 1 , 2 , 3)

Explanation:

In order to find the point of intersection, we need to set both locations equal to one another. It should be noted however, that the time for each particle can vary as we are finding the point where the <u>paths</u> meet, not the point where the particles meet themselves.

So, we can name the time of the first particle $T_F$ , and the time of the second particle $T_S$ .

Setting the locations equal, we get the following equations to solve for $T_F$ and $T_S$ :

$(-1 + T_F) = (-7 + 2T_S)$ Equation 1

$(4 - T_F) = (-6 + 2T_S)$ Equation 2

$(-1 + 2T_F) = (-1 + T_S)$ Equation 3

Solving these three equations simultaneously we get:

$T_F =$ 2 seconds

$T_S =$ 4 seconds

Since, we have an answer for when the trajectories cross, we know for a fact that they indeed do cross.

The point of crossing can be found by using the value of $T_F$ or $T_S$ in the location matrices. Doing this for the first particle we get:

Location of path intersection = ( -1 + 2 , 4 - 2 , -1 + 2(2) )

Location of path intersection = ( 1 , 2 , 3)

In the design of wall and column forms, the two most important factors are which of the following? a. rate of placement of the c

Simora [160]

Answer:

c. length of the wall or column and the rate of placement of the concrete

Explanation:

when designing for wall and column form-works, it is of utmost important to know the length of the wall and the type of concrete placement to be used.

Concrete placement has methods and precaution to be taken when doing the form work

if the concrete placement is manually (hand or funnel) the form work height should not be more than 1 m to enable easy compaction and vibration of concrete in the form.

Also, if the form work length is too long and it is not well reinforced, it tends to burg if the force apply during concrete placement or during vibration is much.
