Physical quantities are a characteristic or property of an object that can be measured or calculated from other measurements. Units are standards for expressing and comparing the measurement of physical quantities. All units can be expressed as combinations of four fundamental units

A wire has a cross sectional area of 4.00 mm2 and is stretched by 0.100 mm by a certain force. How far will a wire of the same m

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: $0.05\ mm$

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of wire $A_1=4\ mm^2$

Extension of wire $\delta l=0.1\ mm$

Extension in a wire is given by

$\Rightarrow \delta l=\dfrac{FL}{AE}$

where, $E=\text{Youngs modulus}$

$\Rightarrow \delta_1=\dfrac{FL}{A_1E}\quad \ldots(i)$

for same force, length and material

$\Rightarrow \delta_2=\dfrac{FL}{A_2E}\quad \ldots(ii)$

Divide (i) and (ii)

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.1}{\delta_2}=\dfrac{A_2}{A_1}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.1\times \dfrac{4}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.05\ mm$

A ball is attached to a string and rotates in a circle. if it takes 1.00 s to complete one revolution, what is the angular veloc

Paha777 [63]

<span>An object roating at one revokution per second has an angular velocity of 360 degrees per second or 2pi radians per second. This is found by taking the number of revolutions over a period of time and than dividing by the chosen period of time to get the velocity. There are 360 degrees or 2pi radians in one revolution.</span>

In what subject could we see cross cutting concepts

meriva

A Framework for K–12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas (Framework) recommends science education in grades K–12 be built around three major dimensions: science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science and engineering through their common application across fields, and core ideas in the major disciplines of natural science.

2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

$m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v$ (1)

Where:

$m_{S}$ , $m_{C}$ - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

$v_{S}$ , $v_{C}$ - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $m_{S} = 2200\,kg$ , $m_{C} = 2000\,kg$ , $v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:
