Alexandria became the center for _____. its science

1 answer:

5 0

Alexandria became the center for Hellenistic scholarship and culture. It was a great revolution in learning during this era as Alexandria had a library filled with books and important documents which were copied and even stolen. Over 500,000 titles were present in Alexandria's library.

What is also known as watered carbons

faltersainse [42]

The name carbohydrate means "watered carbon" or carbon with attached water molecules. Many carbohydrates have empirical formuli which would imply about equal numbers of carbon and water molecules. For example, the glucose formula C6H12O6 suggests six carbon atoms and six water molecules.

You pull straight up on the string of a yo-yo with a force 0.35 N, and while your hand is moving up a distance 0.16 m, the yo-yo

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) 0.138J

b) 3.58m/S

c) (1.52J)(I)

Explanation:

a) to find the increase in the translational kinetic energy you can use the relation

$\Delta E_k=W=W_g-W_p$

where Wp is the work done by the person and Wg is the work done by the gravitational force

By replacing Wp=Fh1 and Wg=mgh2, being h1 the distance of the motion of the hand and h2 the distance of the yo-yo, m is the mass of the yo-yo, then you obtain:

$Wp=(0.35N)(0.16m)=0.056J\\\\Wg=(0.062kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(0.32m)=0.19J\\\\\Delta E_k=W=0.19J-0.056J=0.138J$

the change in the translational kinetic energy is 0.138J

b) the new speed of the yo-yo is obtained by using the previous result and the formula for the kinetic energy of an object:

$\Delta E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2$

where vf is the final speed, vo is the initial speed. By doing vf the subject of the formula and replacing you get:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2}{m}}\sqrt{\Delta E_k+(1/2)mv_o^2}\\\\v_f=\sqrt{\frac{2}{0.062kg}}\sqrt{0.138J+1/2(0.062kg)(2.9m/s)^2}=3.58\frac{m}{s}$

the new speed is 3.58m/s

c) in this case what you can compute is the quotient between the initial rotational energy and the final rotational energy

$\frac{E_{fr}}{E_{fr}}=\frac{1/2I\omega_f^2}{1/2I\omega_o^2}=\frac{\omega_f^2}{\omega_o^2}\\\\\omega_f=\frac{v_f}{r}\\\\\omega_o=\frac{v_o}{r}\\\\\frac{E_{fr}}{E_{fr}}=\frac{v_f^2}{v_o^2}=\frac{(3.58m/s)}{(2.9m/s)^2}=1.52J$

hence, the change in Er is about 1.52J times the initial rotational energy

9. A mouse has a mass of 0. 4kg. What is its weight? (acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8m/s2 = g)

Alik [6]

Answer:

Weight = 3.92 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass m = 0.4 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

Find:

Weight

Computation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

Weight = 0.4 x 9.8

Weight = 3.92 N
