When a simple machine multiplies force, it decreases

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.

N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

What are used for manufacturing paper along with wood and chemicals

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Paper and pulp are made from cellulosic fibers and other plant materials. Some synthetic materials may be used to impart special qualities to the finished product. Paper is made from wood fibers, but rags, flax, cotton linters, and bagasse are also used in some papers.

I just need x isolated

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

$x=\frac{-y+\sqrt{y^2+4rt} }{2r}$

$x=\frac{-y-\sqrt{y^2+4rt} }{2r}$

Explanation:

$rx+y=\frac{t}{x}\\\\x(rx+y)=(\frac{t}{x})x\\\\rx^2+yx=t\\\\rx^2+yx-t=t-t\\\\rx^2+yx-t=0$

Solve using the quadratic formula.

$x=\frac{-y+\sqrt{y^2+4rt} }{2r}$

$x=\frac{-y-\sqrt{y^2+4rt} }{2r}$

suppose you got up this morning and the lightbulb in your room wouldn't come on. Use the of the scientific method to explain how

Anna007 [38]

Answer:TEP 1: State the Problem

A problem is a question to be thought about and either solved or answered. Problems surround all of us. Each day we are faced with more problems than we realize and we use the scientific method to solve them without even thinking about it.

EXAMPLE: The lamp does not come on when you flip the switch.

Your problem may be something that you observe around you or it can be determined by researching a topic and attempting to repeat an experiment of another scientist based on what you are working with.

STEP 2: Make Observations

An observation is the act of recognizing and recording something that is happening. Observing often involves the use of measurements and instruments to take measurements with.

EXAMPLE: (1) There is a light bulb. (2) The switch is in the on position.

(3)Other lights in the house are on. (4) The electrical cord is plugged in.

You make these observations based on the things you see, hear, and in other ways notice going on around you. You may also base your observations on information you found from researching the topic. Maybe you found the manual for the lamp and read about how it is supposed to work. You might have searched for information about Thomas Edison and his invention of the light bulb. These works of others are called background research.

STEP 3: Form a Hypothesis

A hypothesis is an educated guess meaning an explanation for something that happens based on facts that can then be tested to try and find logical answers.

EXAMPLE: The light bulb is burned out.

Your hypothesis should answer your question of why the lamp does not come on. You can come to this conclusion based on your own knowledge or from researching how a lamp works. We assume that if the lamp is plugged in and turned on that it should light. We also know that if other lights in the house are on, some electricity is running through the house. Your hypothesis does not have to be proven correct by your experiment, it just needs to be testable.

Having more than one hypothesis is fine. There could be a number of reasons why the lamp is not lit and testing them all might be the only way to find an answer. Before beginning to experiment, use logical reason to determine if any of your hypotheses can be eliminated. Maybe the fuse is blown or the outlet is bad. The switch could be wired wrong or broken. These are all testable hypotheses that could be looked into if the light bulb is not the problem.

STEP 4: Experiment

An experiment is a step-by-step procedure that is carried out under controlled conditions to attempt to prove a hypothesis, discover and unknown effect or law, or to illustrate a known law.

EXAMPLE: First remove the light bulb and screw it back in tightly to make sure that it was not loose. If that does not work, take the bulb from a lamp you know is working and place it in the broken lamp. If that lights, try another bulb to be sure.

Your experimental set-up should include a control and a variable. You may include more than one variable, but this will increase the size of your experiment. It is also very important to replicate in your experimetal procedure to avoid error. This means that you should try it at least three times. From your experiment you will need to gather data. Data can be organized in charts and or graphs and numerical data should be measured using the metric system.

How To Graph

STEP 5: Draw a Conclusion

A conclusion is a reasonable judgment based on the examination of data from an experiment. The result or outcome of an act or process.

EXAMPLE: The lamp lit after the bulb was changed, therefore the light bulb must have been burned out.

You might also know from experience that if the filament is broken in a light bulb, it will make a rattling sound when you shake the bulb. To confirm your results, you could shake the bul

Indica qué es una propiedad específica de la materia. Además explica por qué son útiles las propiedades específicas de la materi

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Check Explanation

Comprobar explicación

Explanation:

English Translation

Indicate what a specific property of matter is. Also explain why the specific properties of matter are useful compared to the general ones.

Solution

The specific properties of matter are properties that describes the intensive properties of the system. They are properties that do not depend on or change with the extent or size of the system. They are usually obtained by dividing the generalised properties or extensive properties by the extent or size of matter to make them independent of size/extent/Mass.

Examples of specific properties include specific heat capacity, specific volume etc. They usually have units of general units/Mass units.

The specific properties of matter are more important than the general ones because

- They help in general comparisons of the properties of different materials. They are used to rank, classify and compare properties of different materials.

- They are used in reference table/data to easily record easily accessible properties of matter. It helps to record standards that are general and independent of sizes/extents/Mass, thereby keeping the reference table/data/chart precise and concise.

- They provide us with values that are easy to memorize and remember, unlike trying to cram the different properties of different masses/sizes of matter.

In Spanish/En español

Las propiedades específicas de la materia son propiedades que describen las propiedades intensivas del sistema. Son propiedades que no dependen ni cambian con la extensión o el tamaño del sistema. Por lo general, se obtienen dividiendo las propiedades generalizadas o las propiedades extensivas por la extensión o el tamaño de la materia para hacerlas independientes del tamaño / extensión / masa.

Los ejemplos de propiedades específicas incluyen capacidad calorífica específica, volumen específico, etc. Usualmente tienen unidades de unidades generales / unidades de masa.

Las propiedades específicas de la materia son más importantes que las generales porque

- Ayudan en las comparaciones generales de las propiedades de diferentes materiales. Se utilizan para clasificar, clasificar y comparar propiedades de diferentes materiales.

- Se utilizan en la tabla / datos de referencia para registrar fácilmente propiedades de materia fácilmente accesibles. Ayuda a registrar estándares que son generales e independientes de tamaños / extensiones / masa, manteniendo así la tabla / datos / tabla de referencia precisa y concisa.

- Nos proporcionan valores que son fáciles de memorizar y recordar, a diferencia de tratar de agrupar las diferentes propiedades de diferentes masas / tamaños de materia.

Hope this Helps!!!

¡¡¡Espero que esto ayude!!!
