Answer:

The reason is to allow the thermometer to respond relatively quickly, and relatively accurately. The glass contains the liquid being used in the thermometer, but if it is too thick, then it will not pass heat as quickly, and it will absorb some of the heat from whatever is being measured.

A 3 kg block is released from rest to slide down a ramp with friction. The length that the block slides is 2 meters and the angl

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

(a). The acceleration is 3.20 m/s².

(b). The amount of work done by each force is 19.2 J.

(c). The total work done on the block is 19.2 J.

(d). The final speed of the block is 6.26 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 3 kg

Distance = 2 m

Angle = 30°

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.20

(a). We need to calculate the acceleration

Using balance equation of force

$N = mg\co\theta$

$mg\sin\theta-f_{k}=ma$

$a = g\sin\theta-\mu g\cos30$

Put the value into the formula

$a=g(\sin30-0.20\cos30)$

$a=9.8(\dfrac{1}{2}-0.20\times\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$

$a=3.20\ m/s^2$

The acceleration is 3.20 m/s².

(b). We need to calculate the amount of work done by each force

Using formula of work done

Normal force is

$N = mg\cos30$

So due to this the net force is zero then the no work done by reaction force.

By another force,

$W= F\times d$

$W=ma\times d$

Put the value into the formula

$W= 3\times3.20\times2$

$W=19.2\ J$

The amount of work done by each force is 19.2 J.

(c). We need to calculate the total work done on the block

The total work done on the block is 19.2 J.

(d). We need to calculate the final speed of the block

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2gs$

Put the value into the formula

$v^2=0+2\times9.8\times2$

$v=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times2}$

$v=6.26\ m/s$

The final speed of the block is 6.26 m/s.

Hence, This is the required solution.

Answer:

(B) Sending Messages

Explanation:

A similarity between radio waves and microwaves is that both are used for sending messages and communication

Radio Waves and Microwaves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies. Longer wavelengths than an x-ray which is in the electromagnetic spectrum and lower frequencies than gamma rays, which are also in the electromagnetic spectrum. They are also both electromagnetic radiation.

Two carts, one of mass 2m and one of mass m, approach each other with the same speed, v. When the carts collide, they hook toget

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

<em>Second option</em>

Explanation:

<u>Linear Momentum</u>

The linear momentum of an object of mass m and speed v is

P=mv

If two or more objects are interacting in the same axis, the total momentum is

$P_t=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...$

Where the speeds must be signed according to a fixed reference

The images show a cart of mass 2m moves to the left with speed v since our reference is positive to the right

$P_1=-2mv$

The second cart of mass m goes to the right at a speed v

$P_2=mv$

The total momentum before the impact is

$P_t=-2mv+mv=-mv$

The total momentum after the collision is negative, both carts will join and go to the left side

The first option shows both carts with the same momentum before the collision and therefore, zero momentum after. It's not correct as we have already proven

The third option shows the 2m cart has a positive greater momentum than the other one. We have proven the 2m car has negative momentum. This option is not correct either

The fourth option shows the two carts keep separated after the collision, which contradicts the condition of the question regarding "they hook together".

The second option is the correct one because the mass $m_2$ has a negative momentum and then the sum of both masses keeps being negative

high school physics, no need detail explain, just give the answer, but you have to make sure thank you

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

approximately 30 degrees

Explanation:

If it takes the cannonball 2 seconds to reach the maximum height, we can use the analysis of the vertical component of the velocity and the fact that the acceleration of gravity is the one acting opposite to this initial vertical component $(v_y)$ of the velocity. We know as well that at the top of the trajectory, the vertical component of the velocity is zero, and then the movement starts going down in it trajectory. So, the final velocity for the first part of the ascending movement is zero, giving us the following equation for the velocity under an accelerated movement (with acceleration of gravity "g" acting):

$v_f=v_i-a\,t\\v_f=v_y-g\,t\\0=v_y-9.8\,*\,2\\v_y=9.8\,*\,2=19.6 \frac{m}{s}$

By knowing the vertical component of the initial velocity (19.6 m/s), and the actual magnitude of the total initial velocity (40 m/s), we can calculate what angle was the initial velocity vector forming above the horizontal. We use for such the fact that the sine of the angle relates the opposite side of a right angle triangle with the hypotenuse, and solve for the angle using the arcsin function:

$sin(\theta)=\frac{opp}{hyp} \\sin(\theta)=\frac{19.6}{40}\\\theta=arcsin(\frac{19.6}{40})\\\theta=29.34^o$

which tells us that the closer answer shown is $30^o$
