Researchers in the Antarctic measure the temperature to be -32°F. What is this temperature on the following scales?(a) the Celsi

us scale °C(b) the Kelvin scale K

Answer:

a) -35.6°C

b) 237.4 K

Explanation:

To convert temperature from degree celsius to degree fahrenheit, use the formula below:

T_c=\frac{5}{9}(T_f-32)

a) Therefore to convert -32°F to celsius, substitute it into the celsius

\begin{gathered} T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-32-32) \\  \\ T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-64) \\  \\ T_c=-35.6^0C \end{gathered}

b) To covert to the Kelvin scale, use the formula below

\begin{gathered} T_k=T_c+273 \\  \\ T_k=-35.6+273 \\  \\ T_k=237.4K \\  \end{gathered}

A 600 N astronaut travels to an asteroid where the gravitational force is one-hundredth that of Earth. What is the astronaut's w
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

A) 6N

Explanation:

the weight of the astronaut on earth can be calculated with the formula

Weight = mass * gravity of earth

Since the gravitational force is one-hundredth of Earth, the formula should be

Weight = mass * (gravity of earth / 100)

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Since you already know the weight, you only need to divide by 100

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Weight = 600N / 100

Weight = 6N

A 64 kg swimmer jumps, with a velocity of 4.2 m/s, off the front of a 25 kg kayak when the kayak is moving forward at a velocity
Crank

Answer:

3.88m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and 2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Given

m1 = 64kg

u1 = 4.2m/s

m2 = 25kg

u2 = 3.2m/s

Required

Final velocity v

Substitute the given values into the formula

64(4.2)+25(3.2) = (65+25)v

268.8+80 = 90v

348.8 = 90v

v = 348.8/90

v = 3.88m/s

Hence the velocity of the kayak after the swimmer jumps off is 3.88m/s

If the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 11 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
Stella [2.4K]

The density of the material would be 4.1 g/cm³.

Density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.

D=m÷v

D=45 g÷11 cm³

D=4.1 g/cm³

Who’s has bigger cross sectional area capillaries or aorta?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Even though the cross-sectional area of each capillary is extremely small compared to that of the large aorta, the total cross-sectional area of all the capillaries added together is about 1,300 times greater than the cross-sectional area of the aorta because there are so many capillaries
