Why degree F is best to measure accurate temperature<br>

bixtya [17]

Farenheit is the best to measure accurate temperature because, It can go into the negatives(-) and unlimited positives(+). Celcius(C) only goes from 0-100°C Stating that water freezes at 0°C and Boils at 100°C. Farenheit has unlimited temperatures because as time goes by we continue making new discoveries in science.

I Hope This Helps!!! :)

Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height

butalik [34]

Answer:

a) I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

b) F = -451,520N

Explanation:

part a.

we know that:

I = $P_f-P_i$

where I is the impulse, $P_f$ the final momentum and $P_i$ the initial momentum.

so:

I = $MV_f-MV_i$

where M is the mass, $V_f$ the final velocity and $V_i$ the initial velocity.

Therefore, we have to find the initial velocity or the velocity of the passenger just before the collition.

now, we will use the law of the conservation of energy:

$E_i=E_f$

so:

mgh = $\frac{1}{2}MV_i^2$

where g is the gravity and h the altitude. So, replacing values, we get:

(85kg)(9.8m/s^2)(36m)= $\frac{1}{2}(85kg)V_i^2$

solving for $V_i$ :

$V_i = 26.56m/s$

Then, replacing in the initial equation:

I = $MV_f-MV_i$

I = $(85kg)(0m/s)-(85kg)(26.56m/s)$

I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

Then, the impulse is -2257.6 Kg*m/s, it is negative because it is upwards.

part b.

we know that:

Ft = I

where F is the average force, t is the time and I is the impulse. So, replacing values, we get:

F(0,005s) = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

solving for F:

F = -451520N

Finally, the force is -451,520N, it is negative because it is upwards.

Two charged objects separated by some distance attract each other. If the charges on both objects are doubled with no change in

beks73 [17]

Answer:

a. the force between them quadruples

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charges is given by

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

In this problem, the charges on both objects are doubled, so

$q_1' = 2q_1\\q_2' = 2q_2$

While the distance does not change, so the new force will be

$F'= k \frac{(2q_1)(2q_2)}{r^2}=4 (k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4 F$

so, the force will quadruple.
