Answer:

Because of the knowledge of <u>relative size</u>, it will be assumed that the smaller jetliner is farther away.

Explanation:

According to the theory of relative size, the distance that an object has to the viewing individual affects the perception of the individual regarding the size of the object.

As stated in this case, one of the jetliners is farther away from the other. Therefore, even if the jets are of equal size, the one that is at a greater distance is perceived to be smaller as it is at a greater viewing range. The one that is nearer to the individual seems bigger in comparison to the one farther away due to a closer viewing range.

Therefore, the jet that is nearer appears larger.

An old millstone, used for grinding grain in a gristmill, is a solid cylindrical wheel that can rotate about its central axle wi
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The answer is I=70,513kgm^2

Explanation:

Here we will use the rotational mechanics equation T=Ia, where T is the Torque, I is the Moment of Inertia and a is the angular acceleration.

When we speak about Torque it´s basically a Tangencial Force applied over a cylindrical or circular edge. It causes a rotation. In this case, we will have that T=Ft*r, where Ft is the Tangencial Forge and r is the radius

Now we will find the Moment of Inertia this way:

Ft*r=I*a -> (Ft*r)/(a) = I

Replacing we get that I is:

I=(200N*0,33m)/(0,936rad/s^2)

Then I=70,513kgm^2

In case you need to find extra information, keep in mind the Moment of Inertia for a solid cylindrical wheel is:  

I=(1/2)*(m*r^2)

Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before
RideAnS [48]

The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>

The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

Now given that;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5

0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v

v = -1.2/0.1

v = - 12 m/s

Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

What is the change in internal energy if 60 J of heat is released from a system and 30 J of work is done on the system? Use U =
k0ka [10]

The change in internal energy of the system is +30 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the first law of thermodynamics, which states that the change in internal energy of a system is given by the equation:

\Delta U = Q -W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if it is absorbed, negative if it is released)

W is the work done by the system (positive if it is done by the system, negative if it is done by the surroundings on the system)

Therefore, in this problem, we have

Q=-60 J (heat released by the system)

W=-30 J (work done on the system)

Therefore, the change in internal energy is

\Delta U = -60 - (-30) = +30 J
