Sara is working on making her house more eco-friendly. She has a number of upgrades she wants to make such as replacing her toil

et that uses 5 gallons per flush with a new toilet that uses 1.2 gallons per flush. She also wants to replace a leaky faucet in her kitchen. Finally, she would like to replace her old washing machine which uses 35 gallons of water per load with a new high-efficiency model that only uses 10 gallons per load.
Which item should Sara replace first and why? Support your answer with evidence and reasoning. (4 points)

Answer:

Faucet

Explanation:

Probably the leaky faucet....it leaks 24/7   even when she is not home and completely wastes the water....but it really depends on how fast it is leaking vs. how many flushes of the toilet per day Sara does.

2. The components of vector A are given as follows:
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

50 degree.

Explanation:

Given that the components of vector A are given as follows: Ax = 5.6 Ay = -4.7

The angle between vector A and B in the positive direction of x-axis will be achieved by using the formula:

Tan Ø = Ay/Ax

Substitute Ay and Ax into the formula above.

Tan Ø = -4.7 / 5.6

Tan Ø = -0.839

Ø = tan^-1(-0. 839)

Ø = - 40 degree

Therefore, the angle between vector A and B positive direction of x-axis will be

90 - 40 = 50 degree.

A particle with charge q = 10-9 C and mass m = 5.0 x 10-9 kg is moving in a magnetic field whose magnitude is 0.003 T. The speed
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

a=0.212 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

q= 10⁻⁹ C

m = 5 x 10⁻⁹ kg

Magnetic filed ,B= 0.003 T

Speed ,V= 500 m/s

θ= 45°

Lets take acceleration of the mass is a m/s²

The force on the charge due to magnetic filed B

F= q V B sinθ

Also F= m a  ( from Newton's law)

By balancing these above two forces

m a= q V B sinθ

a=\dfrac{qVB\ sin\theta}{m}

a=\dfrac{10^{-9}\times 500\times 0.003\times\ sin45^{\circ}}{5\times 10^{-9}}\ m/s^2

a=\dfrac{10^{-9}\times 500\times 0.003\times\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}}{5\times 10^{-9}}\ m/s^2

a=0.212 m/s²

A rifle bullet with mass 8.00g strikes and embeds itself in a block with mass 0.992kg that rests on a frictionless, horizontal s
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

block velocity   v = 0.09186 = 9.18 10⁻² m/s  and speed bollet   v₀ = 11.5 m / s

Explanation:

We will solve this problem using the concepts of the moment, let's try a system formed by the two bodies, the bullet and the block; In this system all scaffolds during the crash are internal, consequently, the moment is preserved.

Let's write the moment in two moments before the crash and after the crash, let's call the mass of the bullet (m) and the mass of the Block (M)

Before the crash

     p₀ = m v₀ + 0

After the crash

   p_{f} = (m + M) v

    p₀ = p_{f}

    m v₀ = (m + M) v                    (1)

Now let's lock after the two bodies are joined, in this case the mechanical energy is conserved, write it in two moments after the crash and when you have the maximum compression of the spring

Initial

    Em₀ = K = ½ m v2

Final

    E m_{f}= Ke = ½ k x2

   Emo = E m_{f}

   ½ m v² = ½ k x²

   v² = k/m  x²

Let's look for the spring constant (k), with Hook's law

   F = -k x

   k = -F / x

   k = - 0.75 / -0.25

   k = 3 N / m

Let's calculate the speed

  v = √(k/m)   x

  v = √ (3/8.00)   0.15

  v = 0.09186 = 9.18 10⁻² m/s

This is the spped of  the  block  plus bullet rsystem right after the crash

We substitute calculate in equation  (1)

   m v₀ = (m + M) v

  v₀ = v (m + M) / m

  v₀ = 0.09186 (0.008 + 0.992) /0.008

  v₀ = 11.5 m / s

In a shipping company distribution center, an open cart of mass 50.0 kg is rolling to the left at a speed of 5.00 m/s. Ignore fr
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

a) v_p=9.35m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Open cart of mass   M_o=50.0 kg

Speed of cart   V=5.00m/s

Mass of package   M_p=15.0kg

Speed of package at end of chute V_c=3.00m/s

Angle of inclination   \angle =37

Distance of chute from bottom of cart   d_x=4.00m

a)

Generally the equation for work energy theory is mathematically given by

  \frac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv_p^2

Therefore

  \frac{1}{2}u^2+gh=\frac{1}{2}v_p^2

  v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}u^2+gh)}

  v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}v_c^2+gd_x)}

  v_p=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}(3)^2+(9.8)(4))}

  v_p=9.35m/s
