Which statement best describes an isolated system?

Physics
2 answers:
NARA [144]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Neither energy nor matter are exchanged with the surroundings.

Explanation:

Isolated system is a system that is completely cut off from its surroundings.

In an isolated system, both energy and matter are said to be conserved.

It cannot release energy to its surroundings or it cannot take in energy from the surroundings. Apart from energy, even matter cannot be exchanged .

For example if there is a hot box which is insulated and some contents like hot water or milk are poured into it, the heat energy of the water/milk cannot be lost to the surroundings and also it will not take in any heat energy from the surroundings; and the actual amount of water/milk content doesn't change. Such a system is called an isolated system.

guapka [62]

Answer:

a. Photogates placed at the beginning, end, and at various locations along the track that the car travels on.

b. A meterstick to measure the distance of the track that the car travels on.

Explanation:

Physics can be defined as the field or branch of science that typically deals with nature and properties of matter, motion and energy with respect to space, force and time.

In this scenario, a student is provided with a battery-powered toy car that the manufacturer claims will always operate at a constant speed. The student must design an experiment in order to test the validity of the claim.

Therefore, to test the validity of the claim, the student should use the following measuring tools;

a. Photogates placed at the beginning, end, and at various locations along the track that the car travels on. This device is typically used to measure time with respect to the rate of change of the interruption or block of an infra-red beam.

b. A meterstick to measure the distance of the track that the car travels on.

Hence, with these two devices the student can effectively measure or determine the validity of the claim.

A force of 16.88 N is applied tangentially to a wheel of radius 0.340 m and gives rise to an angular acceleration of 1.20rad / (
Basile [38]

Given.

force = 16.88 N is

radius = 0.340m

an angular acceleration = 1.20rad/s^2

the formula for torque is

F*r = I*a

where I is moment of inertia

16.88*.34 = I*1.2

I = 4.78Kg-m^2

so rotational inertia I = 4.78Kg-m^2

17. A 120 m long train is moving in a direction with speed 20 m/s. A train B moving with 30
nydimaria [60]
Answer is D.

Speed:
Use relative speed to simplify the situation. Since the trains are moving in opposite directions, you can add the speeds and pretend the first train is stationary (moving at 0m/s) and the second train is moving at 50m/s.

Distance:
The front of the second train needs to travel 120m to get from the front to the back of the first train. When the front of the second train is at the back of the first train, the back of the second train is still 10m in front of the first train. The back therefore has to travel 130m to clear the first train. The total distance over which the trains are overlapping in this scenario is therefore 120 + 130 = 250m.

You have speed and you have distance so now just calculate time:

v = d / t
50 = 250 / t
t = 5s
