What are the units of measure for distance?

1 answer:

6 0

The most common unit is meters (m for short). It is the base unit for distance or displacement in the metric system. If you are dealing with larger distances, you might use kilometers (I'm for short) which is just 1000 meters. On the other hand, centimeter (cm) are used for small distances and are 1/100 of a meter. Another common unit is millimeters (mm) which is 1/1000 of a meter.

There are two possibilities for final stage of extremely massive stars. The first is a

makkiz [27]

Answer: Black hole.

Explanation:

As the massive star "compacts" under its own gravity, it triggers a massive supernova, after this point the remains of the star can become a neutron star, which is a very compact star made primarily, as the name says, of neutrons. The other possibility is a black hole, which is a finite region of space wherein it's interior there is a big concentration of mass, which creates a gravitational field strong enough that there is no particle that can escape it.

What does the revolution of the moon do to it?

Degger [83]

Answer:

The Moon revolves or moves around the Earth in a path called its orbit and rotates, or spins, in space.

Explanation: The Moon's movements cause the phases of the Moon and the Earth's ocean tides.

A rock is suspended by a light string. When the rock is in air, the tension in the string is 51.9 N . When the rock is totally i

Luden [163]

Answer:

$\rho _{liquid}=1995.07kg/m^{3}$

Explanation:

When the rock is immersed in unknown liquid the forces that act on it are shown as under

1) Tension T by the string

2) Weight W of the rock

3) Force of buoyancy due to displaced liquid B

For equilibrium we have $T_{3}+B = W_{rock}$

$T_{3}+\rho _{Liquid}V_{rock}g$ = $W_{rock}.....(\alpha)$

When the rock is suspended in air for equilibrium we have

$T_{1}=W_{rock}....(\beta)$

When the rock is suspended in water for equilibrium we have

$T_{2}$ + $\rho _{water}V_{rock}g$ = $W_{rock}.....(\gamma)$

Using the given values of tension and solving α,β,γ simultaneously for $\rho _{Liquid}$ we get

$W_{rock}=51.9N\\31.6+1000\times V_{rock}\times g=51.9N\\\\11.4+\rho _{liquid}V_{rock}g=51.9N\\\\$

Solving for density of liquid we get

$\rho _{liquid}=\frac{51.9-11.4}{51.9-31.6}\times 1000$

$\rho _{liquid}=1995.07kg/m^{3}$

An inventor develops a stationary cycling device by which an individual, while pedaling, can convert all of the energy expended

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Emec = 94050 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must understand that all thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy.

The thermal energy can be calculated by means of the following expression.

$Q=m*C_{p}*(T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where:

Q = heat [J]

Cp = specific heat of water = 4186 [J/kg*°C]

m = mass = 300 [g] = 0.3 [kg]

T_final = 95 [°C]

T_initial = 20 [°C]

Now we can calculate the heat, replacing the given values:

$Q=0.3*4180*(95-20)\\Q= 94050[J]$

Since all this energy must come from the mechanical energy delivered by the exercise bike, and no energy is lost during the process, the mechanical energy must be equal to the thermal energy.

$Q=E_{mec}\\E_{mec}=94050[J]$
