Homeostasis: the ability to keep a system at a constant condition. Hormone: a chemical message released in the body by cells and glands that affects other cells in an organism. Hypothalamus: a part of the brain that controls things like thirst, hunger, body temperature, and the release of many hormones.

Rama09 [41]

Assume the motion when you are in the car or in the school bus to go to the school.

To describe the motion the first thing you need is a point of reference. Assume this is your house.

This should be a description:

When you are sitting and the car has not started to move you are at rest.

The car starts moving from rest, gaining speed, accelerating. You start to move away from your house, with a positive velocity (from you house to your school) and positive acceleration (velocity increases).

The car reaches a limit speed of 40mph, and then moves at constant speed. The motion is uniform, the velocity is constant, positive, since you move in the same direction), and the acceleration is zero.

When the car approaches the school, the driver starts to slow down. Then, you speed is lower but yet the velocity is positive, as you are going in the same direction. The acceleration is negative because it is in the opposite direction of the motion.

When the car stops, you are again at rest: zero velocity and zero acceleration.

In all the path your velocity was positive, constant at times (zero acceleration) and variable at others (accelerating or decelerating).

When you comeback home, then you can start to compute negative velocities, as you will be decreasing the distance from your point of reference (your house).

a 2000 kg truck is traveling at a velocity of 30 m/s. What velocity must a 1000 kg car have in order to have the same momentum a

Molodets [167]

The car should have a velocity of 60 m/s to attain the same momentum as that of the truck of 2000 kg.

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is measured as the product of mass of object with the velocity attained by that object.

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = Mass × Velocity

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = 2000×30 = 60000 N

Similarly, the momentum of 1000 kg car will be 1000× velocity of the 1000 kg car.

Since, it is stated that momentum of 2000 kg truck is equal to the momentum of 1000 kg of car, then the velocity of 1000 kg of car can be determined by equating the momentum of car and truck.

Momentum of 2000 kg truck = Momentum of 1000 kg car

60000=1000×velocity of 1000 kg car

Velocity of 1000 kg car = 60000/1000=60 m/s

So, the car should have a velocity of 60 m/s to attain the same momentum as that of the truck of 2000 kg.

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.8m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels

katovenus [111]

To solve this problem we will apply the laws of Mersenne. Mersenne's laws are laws describing the frequency of oscillation of a stretched string or monochord, useful in musical tuning and musical instrument construction. This law tells us that the velocity in a string is directly proportional to the root of the applied tension, and inversely proportional to the root of the linear density, that is,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

Here,

v = Velocity

$\mu$ = Linear density (Mass per unit length)

T = Tension

Rearranging to find the Period we have that

$T = v^2 \mu$

$T = v^2 (\frac{m}{L})$

As we know that speed is equivalent to displacement in a unit of time, we will have to

$T = (\frac{L}{t}) ^2(\frac{m}{L})$

$T = (\frac{7.8}{0.83})^2 (\frac{0.49}{7.8})$

$T = 5.54N$

Therefore the tension is 5.54N

John runs 120 meters in 10 seconds and then runs back to where he started in another 10 seconds. Which statement is true? Rememb

atroni [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. His speed is 0 m/s

B. His velocity is 12 m/s

C. His velocity is 0 m/s

D. His acceleration is 12 m/s

Total distance traveled by John = 120 + 120 = 240 meters

Total time taken by John to cover the distance = 10 + 10 = 20 s

Average speed of John = total distance traveled/total time taken

= 240/20 = 12 m/s

Hence, the average speed/velocity of John throughout the journey is 12 m/s.

The correct option is B.

A bowling ball is far from uniform. Lightweight bowling balls are made of a relatively low-density core surrounded by a thin she

tester [92]

Answer:

a) I = 1,75 10-² kg m² and b) I = 1.49 10⁻² kg m²

Explanation:

The expression for the moment of inertia is

I = ∫ r² dm

The moment of inertia is a scalar by which an additive magnitude, we can add the moments of inertia of each part of the system, taking into account the axis of rotation.

I = I core + I shell

The moment of inertia of a solid sphere is

I sphere = 2/5 MR²

The moment of inertia of a thin spherical shell is

I shell = 2/3 M R²

a) Let's apply to our system, first to the core of weight 1.6 kg and diameter 0.196m, the radius is half the diameter

R = d / 2

R= 0.196 m / 2 = 0.098 m

I core = 2/5 1.6 0.098²

I core = 6.147 10-3 kg m²

Let's calculate the moment of inertia of the shell of mass 1.6 kg with a diameter of 0.206 m

R = 0.206 / 2

R = 0.103 m

I shell = 2/3 1.6 0.103²

I shell = 1,132 10-2 kg m²

The moment of inertia of the ball is the sum of these moments of inertia,

I = I core + I shell

I = 6,147 10⁻³ + 1,132 10⁻² = 6,147 10⁻³ + 11.32 10⁻³

I = 17.47 10⁻³ kg m²

I = 1,747 10-² kg m²

b) Now the ball is report with mass 3.2kg and diameter 0.216 m

R = 0.216 / 2

R = 0.108 m

It is a uniform sphere

I = 2/5 M R²

I = 2/5 3.2 0.108²

I = 1.49 10⁻² kg m²
