Answer:

The difference between ice and steam in Celsius (Centigrade) is 100 deg.

So the difference between and 4 cm and 24 cm of the thread corresponds to 100 deg C.

So 8 cm is 4 cm greater than the ice point

4 cm / 20 cm = 1/5     since the steam point and the ice point are 20 cm apart

Then 1/5 * 100  deg C = 20 deg C   the requested temperature

A worker pushes a box with a horizontal force of 40.0 N over a level distance of 4.0 m. If a frictional force of 27 N acts on th
Lorico [155]

Work = (force) x (distance)

The worker does  (40N) x (4m) = 160 joules of work.

Friction eats up    (27N) x (4m) = 108 joules of that energy,
                                                         generating 108  joules of heat.                         

The remaining    (160J - 108J) = 52 joules of energy moves the box.

A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.8 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v is the launch speed of the plastic ball and the angle of projection is θ.

So, in horizontal direction

v Cosθ x t = 4.8 .... (1)

In th evertical direction

1.4 = v Sin θ x t - 0.5 gt²     .... (2)

As , v Sin θ x t = 3.8      .... (3) , put in equation (2)

1.4 = 3.8 - 4.9 t²

t = 0.7 s

Put in (1) and (3)

v Cosθ x 0.7  = 4.8

v Cosθ = 6.86

and v Sinθ x 0.7 = 3.8

v Sinθ = 5.43

Now

v^{2}\left ( Sin^{2}\theta +Cos^{2}\theta  \right )=5.43^{2}+6.86^{2}

v = 8.75 m/s
