A strip of copper metal is riveted to a strip of aluminum. the two metals are then heated. the coefficient of linear expansion o

We can base this on the equation of thermal expansion.

ΔL = L₀αΔT
where
ΔL is the expansion of length upon heating
L₀ is the initial length
α is the coefficient of linear expansion
ΔT is the temperature difference

So, if α for Aluminum is greater than α for Copper, then after heating, aluminum would be longer than copper.

A cube has a drag coefficient of 0.8. what would be the terminal velocity of a sugar cube 1 cm on a side in air (ρ = 1.2 kg/m3)?
kramer
To answer this question, we should know the formula for the terminal velocity. The formula is written below:

v = √(2mg/ρAC)
where
m is the mass
g is 9.81 m/s²
ρ is density
A is area
C is the drag coefficient

Let's determine the mass, m, to be density*volume.
Volume = s³ = (1 cm*1 m/100 cm)³ = 10⁻⁶ m³
m = (1.6×10³ kg/m³)(10⁻⁶ m³) = 1.6×10⁻³ kg
A = (1 cm * 1 m/100 cm)² = 10⁻⁴ m²

v = √(2*1.6×10⁻³ kg*9.81 m/s²/1.6×10³ kg/m³*10⁻⁴ m²*0.8)
<em>v = 0.495 m/s</em>

The __________-second rule applies to any speed in ideal weather and road conditions.
SOVA2 [1]
The two-second rule.

It is a common guideline to follow while driving.

It means that any given driver should be AT LEAST two seconds behind any vehicle that is driving in front of his vehicle. It might apply for any kind of vehicle.
