In the absence of air resistance or any other force on it, an object's acceleration is the acceleration of gravity ... <em>9.8 m/s² downward</em>.

It doesn't matter if the object rolled off a table, or fell out of an eagle's mouth, or got shot straight up out of a cannon, or LeBron threw it at the basket for a 3-pointer, or Justin Tucker kicked it for a field goal, or Tiger Woods chipped it for a bogey, or Billy Joe MacAllister heaved it straight down off the Tallahatchie Bridge with all his strength.

It doesn't matter how it got STARTED moving, or how fast it's going right now, or what direction it's going now.

If there's no air resistance, and no OTHER force on the object that can speed it up or slow it down, then it's in "free fall", and it's accelerating at 9.8 m/s² downward.

The size and direction of its MOTION doesn't matter. But the size and direction of its acceleration is 9.8 m/s² straight down.

12) A neutral atom has two, eight, eight electrons in its first, second, and third energy levels.This information ________.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Option C

The information given in the question tells us about the number of electrons in an atom and also the number of shells in the atom. So, we will come to know about the atomic number, size and chemical properties of the atom. But we cannot determine atomic mass. Atomic mass is a function of number of neutrons and protons.

What is the formula for the moment of inertia of the person/single particle rotating in a circle? (Give these values with a subs
Ann [662]

Moment of inertia of single particle rotating in circle is I1 = 1/2 (m*r^2)

The value of the moment of inertia when the person is on the edge of the merry-go-round is I2=1/3 (m*L^2)

Moment of Inertia refers to:

  • the quantity expressed by the body resisting angular acceleration.
  • It the sum of the product of the mass of every particle with its square of a distance from the axis of rotation.

The moment of inertia of single particle rotating in a circle I1 = 1/2 (m*r^2)

here We note that the,

In the formula, r being the distance from the point particle to the axis of rotation and m being the mass of disk.

The value of the moment of inertia when the person is on the edge of the merry-go-round is determined with parallel-axis theorem:

I(edge) = I (center of mass) + md^2

d be the distance from an axis through the object’s center of mass to a new axis.

I2(edge) = 1/3 (m*L^2)

Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series that begin and end at the same state
topjm [15]

Answer:

a) W =400 kJ

b) W = 0 kJ

c) W =-160.944 KJ

Explanation:

<u>Given  </u>

<u><em>Process 1 ---> 2 </em></u>

The relation of the process P = constant

Pressure of point (1) P1 =  10 bar = P2

Volume of point (1) V1   = 1 m^3

Volume of point (2) V2 =4 m^3

The relation of the process V = constant  

<u>Process 2 ---> 3 </u>

The relation of the process V = constant

V3 = V2

Pressure of point (3) P3 = 10 bar

Volume of point (3) V3 = 4 m^3

<u>Process 3 ---> 1 </u>

The relation of the process PV = constant  

<u>Required  </u>

Sketch the processes on the PV coordinates

The work for each process in kJ  

<u>Solution  </u>

The work is defined by  

W=\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx

<em>a=V2</em>

<em>b=V1</em>

<em>x=P</em>

<em>dx=dV</em>

<u>Process 1 ---> 2  </u>

P3 = P4 = 5 bar  

W=\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx

<em>a=V3</em>

<em>b=V2</em>

<em>x=4</em>

<em>dx=dV</em>

putting the value of a, b, x, dx in above integral

W=400 kJ

<u>Process 2 ---> 3 </u>

V = constant Then there is no change in the volume,hence W = 0 kJ  

<u>Process 3 ---> 1  </u>

By substituting with point (1) --> 5 x .2 = C ---> C = 1 P = 5V^-1  

 W=\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx

a=V1

b=V3

x=1V^-1

dx=dV

putting the value of a, b, x, dx in above integral

W=| ln V | limit a and b

  = -160.944 KJ
