Answer:

The surface tension of plain water can cause a needle to float.

Evidently, the addition of detergent to the water reduces the surface tension of the liquid causing the needle to sink.

Does the inertia of an object change as the object’s velocity changes explain
Sever21 [200]
Inertia is proportional to mass. It is a measure of the resistance to changes in velocity. Inertia is a property of mass and cannot change. Momentum changes as an object changes its velocity. Good luck on your assignment and have a great day! :D

Joe and Max shake hands and say goodbye. Joe walks east 0.40 km to a coffee shop, and Max flags a cab and rides north 3.65 km to
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

3.67 km

Explanation:

Joe distance towards coffee shop is,

OB=0.40 km

And the Max distance towards bookstore is,

OA=3.65 km

Now the distance between the Joy and Max will be,

By applying pythagorus theorem,

AB=\sqrt{OB^{2}+OA^{2}}

Substitute 0.40 km for OB and 3.65 km for OA in the above equation.

AB=\sqrt{0.40^{2}+3.65^{2}}\\AB=\sqrt{13.4825} \\AB=3.67 km

Therefore the distance between there destination is 3.67 km.

You are working out on a rowing machine. Each time you pull the rowing bar (which simulates the "oars") toward you, it moves a d
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

54.67 N

Explanation:

The total energy produced is the product of power and time duration:

E = Pt = 82 * 1 = 82 J

Which is converted from work, product of forced extended over a displacement

W = E = Fs = F*1.5 = 82

F = 82 / 1.5 = 54.67 N

So the magnitude of the force exerting on the handle is 54.67 N

What is the kinetic energy of a 145 g baseball moving at 42 m/s?
klio [65]
Answer:
Kinetic energy = 127.89 Joules

Explanation:
Kinetic energy is calculated using the following rule:
KE = (1/2)*v* v^2
Where:
m is the mass = 145 g = 0.145 kg
v is the velocity = 42 m/sec

Substitute in the above equation to get the kinetic energy as follows:
KE = (0.5)(0.145)(42)^2
Kinetic energy = 127.89 Joules

Hope this helps :)

Which of the following states Bernoulli’s principle?
madam [21]
The correct answer is <span>B. As speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within decreases.
Using formulas, Bernoulli's principle can be written as 
</span>p+ \frac{1}{2}\rho v^2 + \rho g h=cost.
where p is the pressure of the fluid, \rho its density, v its speed, and h its elevation above a reference level.
Assuming h does not change, we can see that if the speed v increases, the pressure p must decrease in order  to keep constant the sum of the three terms.
