Based on experimental observations, the acceleration of a particle is defined by the relation a = -(0.1 + sin x/b), where a and

x are expressed in m/s2 and meters, respectively. Know that b=0.80 m and that v = 1 m/s when x= 0. Determine the velocity of the particle when x = -1 m. (You must provide an answer before moving to the next part.) The velocity of the particle is m/s.

Answer:

Velocity,v = 0.323 m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of a particle is given by :

a=-(0.1+sin\dfrac{x}{b})

b = 0.8 m when x = 0

Since, a=v\dfrac{dv}{dx}  

v\dfrac{dv}{dx}=-(0.1+sin\dfrac{x}{b})  

\int{v.dv}=\int{-(0.1+sin\dfrac{x}{b})}.dx

\dfrac{v^2}{2}=-[0.1x-0.8cos\dfrac{x}{0.8}]+c

At x = 0, v = 1 m/s

\dfrac{1}{2}=0.8+c

c=-0.3

\dfrac{v^2}{2}=-[0.1x-0.8cos\dfrac{x}{0.8}]-0.3

At x = -1 m

\dfrac{v^2}{2}=-0.1(-1)+0.8cos\dfrac{(-1)}{0.8}-0.3

{v^2}=0.1045

v = 0.323 m/s

So, the velocity of the particle is 0.323 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Where is UTC the local time?
Dmitrij [34]

UTC is generally adopted as the local time at Prime Meridian (PM).

<h3>What is UTC?</h3>

UTC is an abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time and it can be defined as a local time standard by which all clocks, time and time zones are regulated around the world.

This ultimately implies that, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is generally adopted as the local time at Prime Meridian (PM) because it nominally reflects mean solar time.

How did the atomic theory develop and change
IgorC [24]

Explanation:

Early Atomic theory

Although the idea of the atom was first suggested by Democritus in the fourth century BC, his suppositions were not useful in explaining chemical phenomena, because there was no experimental evidence to support them. It was not until the late 1700's that early chemists began to explain chemical behavior in terms of the atom. Joseph Priestly, Antoine Lavoisier, and others set the stage for the foundation of chemistry. They demonstrated that substances could combine to form new materials. It was the English chemist, John Dalton, who put the pieces of the puzzle together and developed an atomic theory in 1803.

Dalton's atomic theory contains five basic assumptions:

All matter consists of tiny particles called atoms. Dalton and others imagined the atoms that composed all matter as tiny, solid spheres in various stages of motion.

Atoms are indestructible and unchangeable. Atoms of an element cannot be created, destroyed, divided into smaller pieces, or transformed into atoms of another element. Dalton based this hypothesis on the law of conservation of mass as stated by Antoine Lavoisier and others around 1785.

Elements are characterized by the weight of their atoms. Dalton suggested that all atoms of the same element have identical weights. Therefore, every single atom of an element such as oxygen is identical to every other oxygen atom. However, atoms of different elements, such as oxygen and mercury, are different from each other.

In chemical reactions, atoms combine in small, whole-number ratios. Experiments that Dalton and others performed indicated that chemical reactions proceed according to atom to atom ratios which were precise and well-defined.

When elements react, their atoms may combine in more than one whole-number ratio. Dalton used this assumption to explain why the ratios of two elements in various compounds, such as oxygen and nitrogen in nitrogen oxides, differed by multiples of each other.

John Dalton's atomic theory was generally accepted because it explained the laws of conservation of mass, definite proportions, multiple proportions, and other observations. Although exceptions to Dalton's theory are now known, his theory has endured reasonably well, with modifications, throughout the years.

3. Pencils should not be used inside the computer to change the setting of switches or to
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Pencils indeed should not be used as tools when working inside a computer because it is made of Lead.

Lead is a conductor of electricity and as such if it is left inside the computer at even miniscule quantities, it can redirect electricity and damage components in the process.

If one wants to work inside a computer, it is best to use tools like tweezers and needle-nose pliers.

Explain why the open umbrella hit the ground after the closed umbrella. *
balandron [24]

Answer:

An open umbrella would not hit the ground in front of the closed one.

Explanation:

The closed umbrella would impact first because it did not have as much air pressure. The open one has air that presses against it and makes it reach where the open umbrella floats but falls slowly
