The coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends upon

1 answer:

7 0

I think that the coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on THE CHANGE IN VOLUME.

Cubical expansion, also known as, volumetric expansion has the following formula:

Δ V = β V₁ ΔT

V₁ = initial volume of the body
ΔT = change in temperature of the body
β = coefficient of volumetric expansion.

β is defined as the increase in volume per unit original volume per Kelvin rise in temperature.

With the above definition, it is safe to assume that the coefficient of cubical expansion of a substance depends on the change in volume, which also changes in response to the change in temperature.

A bullet is fired horizontally from a handgun at a target 100.0 m away. If the initial speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The distance is 0.53 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Target distance = 100.0 m

Speed of bullet = 300 m/s

We need to calculate the total time

Using formula of time

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{100.0}{300}$

$t=0.33\ sec$

Now, consider vertical motion of bullet.

Initial velocity of bullet in vertical direction = 0 m/s

We need to calculate the vertically distance

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Put the value in the equation

$s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times(0.33)^2$

$s=0.53\ m$

Hence, The distance is 0.53 m.

explain why a high-speed collision between two cars would cause more damage than a low-speed collision between the same two cars

9966 [12]

The force equation can easily prove this. F=ma. This states that the force on an object is equal to mass times acceleration. If the mass stays the same and the velocity of the cars increases than that means there is a larger force. This is because in both cases the cars are stopping in almost an instant and the times of the crashes are theoretically identical. Acceleration is the change in velocity over time. If the velocity is higher with the same amount of time than that means there is a higher acceleration. If you plug a higher acceleration into the force equation then you wind up with a higher force and in turn a more damaging collision.
