Answer:

(a) decrease

Explanation:

Viscosity is the resistance which occur to flow of the fluid.

More the inter molecular forces between particles of the liquid, more the viscosity of liquid.

Effect of temperature on viscosity:-

Viscosity decreases with the increase in the temperature as forces among the particles decrease on increasing temperature. The kinetic energy of the particles of the liquid increases causing to move in more random motions and thus weaker inter molecular forces and this offer less resistance to the flow.

Hence, viscosity of the liquids decrease with the increasing temperature.

What is the average power output of an athlete who can life 9.0 * 10^2 kg 2.5 m in 2.0 s?

eduard

Answer:

Average power output of athlete = 11025 Watts

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force applied and the displacement perpendicular to the force.

Work = $Force\times Displacement$

Power is defined as work done per unit time.

Power = $\frac{Work done}{Time}$

Here the person lifts 900 kg.

Height = 2.5 m

Time interval = 2 seconds

Force = $weight \times gravity$

= $900 \times 9.8$

= 8820 N

Work done = $Force\times Displacement$

= $8820 \times 2.5$

= 22050 J

Power = $\frac {22050}{2}$

= 11025 Watt

The velocity function (in meters per second) is given for a particle moving along a line. v(t) = 5t − 9, 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 (a) Find the

Reil [10]

Answer:

a) The displacement is -4.5 m.

b) The traveled distance is 11.7 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a)The velocity of the particle is the derivative of the displacement function, x(t):

v(t) = dx/dt = 5t - 9

Separating varibles:

dx = (5t - 9)dt

Integrating both sides from x = x0 to x and from t = 0 to t.

x - x0 = 1/2 · 5t² - 9t

x = 1/2 · 5t² - 9t + x0

If we place the origin of the system of reference at x = x0, the displacement at t = 3 will be x(3):

x(3) = 1/2 · 5 · (3)² - 9(3) + 0

x(3) = -4.5

The displacement at t = 3 s is -4.5 m. It means that the particle is located 4.5 m to the left from the origin of the system of reference at t = 3 s.

b) When the velocity is negative, the particle moves to the left. Let´s find the time at which the velocity is less than zero:

v = 5t - 9

0 > 5t - 9

9/5 > t

1.8 s > t

Then until t = 1.8 s, the particle moves to the left from the origin of the reference system.

Let´s find the position of the particle at that time:

x = 1/2 · 5t² - 9t

x = 1/2 · 5(1.8 s)² - 9(1.8 s)

x = -8.1 m

From t = 0 to t = 1.8 s the traveled distance is 8.1 m. After 1.8 s, the particle has positive velocity. It means that the particle is moving to the right, towards the origin. If at t = 3 the position of the particle is -4.5 m, then the traveled distance from x = -8.1 m to x = -4.5 m is (8.1 m - 4.5 m) 3.6 m.

Then, the total traveled distance is (8.1 m + 3.6 m) 11.7 m.

Since sound is a mechanical wave it needs a ...... to travel through

Leni [432]

Answer:

medium

Examples:

A medium is a thing that the sound wave would travel through, like sound waves traveling through air. A mechanical wave cannot travel without a medium, like if the wave were trying to travel through a vacuum.

What does it mean when white light is diffracted and at a particular location the color seen is blue? Please use 2 content relat

Brilliant_brown [7]

When white light is diffracted and blue color is seen is due to the absorbance of wavelength of all other color except blue.

Explanation:

The white light diffracts into rainbow colors which are the 7 colors present in form of VIBGYOR.
VIBGYOR is the violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and Red.
When the blue color is seen denotes the shortest wavelength being reflected and all other being absorbed at the specified location.

A light ray in air enters and passes through a block of glass. What can be stated with regard to its speed after it emerges from

Alik [6]

Answer:

Speed is same as that before it entered glass.

Explanation:

Given:

A light ray enters and passes through the glass as shown in the diagram.

We have to analyze its speed.

Speed of light in air is $3\times 10^8\ ms^-^1$ and speed of light in glass is $2.25\times 10^8\ ms^-^1$

Whenever a light ray enters a glass block or slab there is bending of light at the interface of the two media.

So speed of light will decrease in glass medium and again it passes to the air.

Speed of light in air will again increase or will be equivalent to the earlier speed when it was entering the glass block.

Finally

Speed is same as that before it entered glass as it in the same medium (air).
