It stops accelerating when the air resistance is equal to its weight.
That's (m•g)

= (2 kg) • (9.8 m/s^2)

= 19.6 newtons

On Earth, the gravitational Field strength is much than on the moon. If a piece of rock was taken from the Moon to the Earth, st
nikklg [1K]
Ok so I’m pretty sure the answer would be 2 because the mass of the rock would have the same mass on Earth as it has on the moon. Also the Density of a solid object remains constant meaning it doesn’t change. But the weight would change because the Earths gravitational pull is more than that of the moon. I hope this helped!

Two long straight wires are parallel and 8.6 cm apart. They are to carry equal currents such that the magnetic field at a point
Neko [114]

Answer:

(a) The current should be in opposite direction

(b) The current needed is 39.8 A

Explanation:

Part (a)

Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction

Part (b)

given;

strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT

distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

B = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

B_c = 2(\frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}) =\frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

B_c = \frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}\\\\I = \frac{B_c\pi R}{\mu_o} = \frac{370 *10^{-6}* \pi *0.043}{4\pi *10^{-7}}\\\\I = 39.8 \ A

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A

A Carnot engine operates with an efficiency of 26.0% when the temperature of its cold reservoir is 281 K. Assuming that the temp
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Explanation:

In first case we have given efficiency of Carnot engine = 26 % = 0.26

Temperature of cold reservoir T_L=281K

We know that efficiency of Carnot engine is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

0.26 =1-\frac{281}{T_H}

T_H=379.72K

For second Carnot engine efficiency is given as 35% = 0.35

And temperature of hot reservoir is same so T_H=379.72K

So 0.35=1-\frac{T_L}{379.72}

T_L=246.818K

So the temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

The burning of a log releases the logs chemical_energy into other forms of energy
saul85 [17]

Answer:

When we burn wood we are releasing solar energy, in the form of heat, that has been stored in the wood as chemical energy. The process of photosynthesis converted solar energy, water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and the organic molecules that form the wood, half the weight of which is carbon.
