5 0

Answer:

The pressure exerted by a women wearing shoes with pointed heels is much greater than what an elephant with one foot can exert on ground. This because of lesser area of contact of pointed heels.

8. A car moving at 35 m/s has 675 joules of KE. What is the mass of the car?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion while potential energy is the energy of a body at rest.
Kinetic energy is given by E=1/2MV² where M is the mass of the body while V is the velocity of the body. 
To get mass we can use the formula M= 2 Ek/V² (Making M the subject)
hence mass  = (2 ×675)÷35²
                     = 1.102 kg

Suppose earth's mass increased but earth's diameter didn't change. Describe how the gravitational force between Earth and the ob
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

It increases proportionally

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Earth and an object on its surface is given by

F=G\frac{Mm}{R^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the mass of the object

R is the Earth's radius

In this problem, the Earth's mass is increased, while the diameter (and therefore, the radius) doesn't change. From the equation, we see that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the Earth's mass: therefore, if the mass is increased, the force will increase as well by the same proportion (for example, if the mass is doubled, the force will double as well)

What distance does light travel in water, glass, and diamond during the time that it travels 1.0 m in vacuum? The refractive ind
lidiya [134]

Answer:

refractive index for water,glass,diamond are 0.752m, 0.667m, 0.413m respectively

Explanation:

refractive index (n) = \frac{velocity of light in air/vacuum}{velocity of light in substance}

velocity =\frac{distance}{time}

The time for travel is kept constant for all mediums.

refractive index (n) = \frac{\frac{distance in vacuum}{time} }{\frac{distance in medium}{time} }\\ \\=\frac{distance in vacuum}{distance in medium}

distance in medium = \frac{distance in vacuum}{refractive index of medium}

S_{medium}  = \frac{S_{vacuum} }{n_{medium} }

For water, n= 1.33

S_{water} = \frac{1 }{1.33}

S_{water} = 0.752m

For glass, n=1.5

S_{glass}= \frac{1 }{1.5}

S_{glass} = 0.667m

For diamond, n= 2.42

S_{diamond} = \frac{1 }{2.42}

S_{diamond} = 0.413m
