Explain why streets and highways have speed limits and not velocity limits.

We know that speed is a scalar unit while velocity is a vector. The signs are mostly concerned with the magnitude that the car should travel in, the direction is not as important. 

Hope I helped :)

Mass and Weight: What is the mass of an object that experiences a gravitational force of 685 N near Earth's surface where g
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>m = 69.9 kg</u>

An astronaut throws a wrench in interstellar space. How much force is required to keep the wrench moving continuously with const
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the mass of the wrench would be 0 due to it being in space and has no gravitational pull to weight it down. And since acceleration is defined as the rate and change of velocity with no respect of time and the wrench is moving at a constant velocity, that means the velocity is 0. and since F = m*a it would be F = 0 * 0 = 0 N

Two objects are made of the same material, but they have different masses and temperatures. If the objects are brought into ther
DIA [1.3K]

The smaller body will have greater temperature change.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Temperature is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. The relationship of the temperature with heat is described as

Q =m c dT.

Where Q is the heat content

m is the mass of body

c is the specific heat of body

dT is the temperature change of body.

Here the bodies are made up of same substance, so specific heat is same. The mass of bigger body is M and smaller body is m.

So the temperature change of the body will be dependent on the mass of the body. Heat loss by one body will be equal to heat gained by the other.

So M dT1 = mdT2.

So, M/m = dT2 / dT1.

So the the smaller body will be suffering higher temperature change.

( Just answer 1 &amp; 2) Please help! This is the last thing I have to do. I will mark brainliest asap!!
natima [27]

Answer:

1. Formula = distance/time

D= 112.0 meters, time =4 secs

Speed = d/t =112.0/4

= 28m/s

2.Formula = distance/time

D= 1/4 x 16093.44 m

= 402.35m

Time = 15secs

Speed= d/t

= 402.35/15

=26m/s

A rectangular coil of 65 turns, dimensions 0.100 m by 0.200 m, and total resistance 10.0 ? rotates with angular speed 29.5 rad/s
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

N = 65

Area, A = 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.02 m^2

R = 10 ohm

ω = 29.5 rad/s

B = 1 T

(a) at t = 0

e = N x B x A x ω

e = 65 x 1 x 0.02 x 29.5

e = 38.35 V

(b) The maximum rate of change of magnetic flux is equal to the maximum value of induced emf.

Ф = 38.35 Wb/s

(c) e = NBAω Sinωt

e = 65 x 1 x 0.02 x 29.5 x Sin (29.5 x 0.05)

e = 38.174 V

(d) Maximum torque

τ = M B Sin 90

τ = N i A B

τ = N e A B / R

τ = 65 x 38.35 x 0.02 x 1 / 10

τ = 5 Nm
