Answer:

Radiation

Explanation:

They are relying majorly on radiation. Radiation as a mode of heat transfer is the transfer of heat energy from one body to another without any intervening medium between the source of heat and the body. Without intervening medium means that radiation does not requires material medium for its propagation and it occurs mainly in vacuum.

Example of radiation is the source of heat directly from the sun. Since the kittens are sleeping in a sunny spot, therefore they get their heat through radiation.

At one particular moment, a 19.0 kg toboggan is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 4.00 m/s. After 7.00 s have elapsed,

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

10.86 N

Explanation:

Let the average frictional force acting on the toboggan be 'f' N.

Given:

Mass of toboggan (m) = 19.0 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 4.00 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Time for which friction acts (Δt) = 7.00 s

Now, change in momentum is given as:

$\Delta p =Final\ momentum-Initial\ momentum\\\\\Delta p=mv-mu\\\\\Delta p=19.0\ kg(0-4.00)\ m/s\\\\\Delta p=-76.00\ Ns$

Now, we know that, change in momentum is equal to the impulse acting on the body. So,

Impulse is, $J=\Delta p=-76.00\ Ns$

Now, we know that, impulse is also given as the product of average force and the time interval for which it acts. So,

$J=f\times \Delta t$

Rewriting the above equation in terms of 'f', we get:

$f=\dfrac{J}{\Delta t}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'f'. This gives,

$f=\frac{-76.00\ Ns}{7.00\ s}\\\\f=-10.86\ N$

Therefore, the magnitude of frictional force is $|f|=|-10.86\ N|=10.86\ N$

¿Qué es una vibración?

labwork [276]

Answer:

A vibration or oscillation is a periodically repeated reversal of the direction of movement.

Explanation:

Une vibration ou une oscillation est une inversion répétée périodiquement de la direction du mouvement.

Here is just another definition.

A vibration is periodic back-and-forth motion centerd around it's equilibrium.

Two workers pull horizontally on a heavy box. but one pulls twice as hard as the other. The larger pull is directed at 21.0° wes

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of F1 is

$|F1|=358.74 \ N$

The magnitude of F2 is

$|F2|=179.37\ N$

And the direction of F2 is

$\alpha = 44.214^o$

Explanation:

<u>Net Force </u>

Forces are represented as vectors since they have magnitude and direction. The diagram of forces is shown in the figure below.

The larger pull F1 is directed 21° west of north and is represented with the blue arrow. The other pull F2 is directed to an unspecified direction (red arrow). Since the resultant Ft (black arrow) is pointed North, the second force must be in the first quadrant. We must find out the magnitude and angle of this force.

Following the diagram, the sum of the vector components in the x-axis of F1 and F2 must be zero:

$\displaystyle -2F\ sin21^o+F\ cos\alpha =0$

The sum of the vertical components of F1 and F2 must equal the total force Ft

$\displaystyle -2F\ cos21^o+F\ sin\alpha =460$

Solving for $\alpha$ in the first equation

$\displaystyle cos\alpha =\frac{2F\ sin21^o}{F}=2sin21^o$

$\displaystyle cos\alpha =0.717=>\alpha =44.214^o$

$\displaystyle F(2cos21^o+sin\alpha)=460$

$\displaystyle F=\frac{460}{2cos21^o+sin\alpha}$

$\displaystyle F=\frac{460}{2cos21^o+sin44.214^o}$

$\displaystyle F=179.37\ N$

The magnitude of F1 is

$|F1|=2*F=358.74 \ N$

The magnitude of F2 is

$|F2|=179.37\ N$

And the direction of F2 is

$\alpha = 44.214^o$

Explain how evidence of energy transformation in fireworks supports the law of conservation of energy.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Energy transformation in fireworks supports the law of conservation of energy because the total chemical energy packed into the fireworks before they ignite must be the same as the total remaining after it explodes... I hope this was the answer you were looking for.. I love your Yoongi pfp btw! :) </3
