When the core of a star like the sun uses up its supply of hydrogen for fusion, the core begins to contract in size. The gravitational forces becomes strong and cause the star to reduce in size. as the star contracts, the temperature of the star also rises since the heat is distributed inside smaller Volume now.

Its core contracts, but its outer layers expand and the star becomes bigger and brighter.

a mass m at the end of a spring oscillates with a frequency of 0.78 hz . when an additional 730 g mass is added to m, the freque

ozzi

The value of mass m = 0.506kg

Initial frequency = 0.78Hz

additional mass = 730 g = 0.73kg

New frequency = 0.65 Hz

F = 1/2π $\sqrt{x\\}k/m$

0.78 = 1/2π $\sqrt{k/m}$

additional mass,

0.65 = 1/2π $\sqrt{k/m+0.65}$

1.44 = k/m / k/m+0.73

1.44 = m+0.73 / m

1.44m -m = 0.73

1.44m = 0.73

mass m = 0.506kg

a measurement used in physics to express the inertia, a quality that all matter has in common. Effectively, it is the resistance a body of matter offers to a change in its speed or position as a result of the application of a force. The change caused by an applied force is proportional to the mass of the body. The kilograms is the measure of mass in the International System of Units (SI). Its definition is based on the Planck constant, which is set at 6.62607015 1034 joule second. The unit of energy known as a joule is one kilogramme times one square metre per second. The kilogramme is determined by precise measurements of Planck's constant, while the second and metre are already defined in terms of other physical constants.

Two people, one with mass m1 and the other with mass m2, stand on a stationary sled with mass M on a frozen lake. Assume that th

lozanna [386]

Answer:

Part a)

Velocity of sled

$v = \frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$

velocity of first man who jump off

$v_1 = -\frac{(m_2 + M) s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$

Part b)

Velocity of sled

$v_f = (\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) + (\frac{m_2}{m_2 + M})s$

Also the speed of second person is given as

$v_2 = (\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) - \frac{Ms}{m_2 + M}$

Part c)

change in kinetic energy of sled + two people is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}Mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2$

Explanation:

As we know that here we we consider both people + sled as a system then there is no external force on it

So here we can use momentum conservation

since both people + sled is at rest initially so initial total momentum is zero

now when first people will jump with relative velocity "s" then let say the sled + other people will move off with speed v

so by momentum conservation we have

$0 = m_1(v - s) + (m_2 + M)v$

$v = \frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$

so velocity of the sled + other person is

$v = \frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$

velocity of first man who jump off

$v_1 = \frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M} - s$

$v_1 = -\frac{(m_2 + M) s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}$

Part b)

now when other man also jump off with same relative velocity

so let say the sled is now moving with speed vf

so by momentum conservation we have

$(m_2 + M)(\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) = m_2(v_f - s) + Mv_f$

$(m_2 + M)(\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) + m_2s = (m_2 + M)v_f$

Now we have

$v_f = (\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) + (\frac{m_2}{m_2 + M})s$

Also the speed of second person is given as

$v_2 = (\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) + (\frac{m_2}{m_2 + M})s - s$

$v_2 = (\frac{m_1 s}{m_1 + m_2 + M}) - \frac{Ms}{m_2 + M}$

Part c)

change in kinetic energy of sled + two people is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}Mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2$

here we know all values of speed as we found it in part a) and part b)

How did Archimedes measure the mass of the block of gold?

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Archimedes found a piece of gold and a piece of silver with exactly the same mass. He dropped the gold into a bowl filled to the brim with water and measured the volume of water that spilled out. Then he did the same thing with the piece of solver. Although both metals had the same mass, the silver gad a larger volume; therefore, it displaced more water than the gold did. That's because the silver was less dense than gold. Afterwards he applied the same method to the crown for the king he served who had got a new crown from a jeweler who gave it to him. Archimedes found a piece of pure gold that had the same mass as the crown. He placed the pure gold chuck and the crown in water, one at a time. The crown displaced more water the piece of gold. Therefore, its density was less than pure gold.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

33.516 kJ

Explanation:

Potential energy is given by:

PE = mgh

Where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this case:

PE = 38kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 90m = 33516 kg m^2/s^2 = 33516 J = 33.516 kJ
