Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and create greenhouse gases.  While cheaper now to  burn fossil fuels, within fifty years we will run out and have to turn to other sources of energy.  Hope this helps!!!

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s
Bond [772]

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².

A 20,000 kg truck is traveling at 10 m/s. Calculate the truck's momentum. (p = m v)
kow [346]

Answer:

200,000 and 20,000,000

Explanation:

Substituting the values into the equation of momentum, we get that the momentum is p = mv = 20,000*10 = 200,000. Using the equation provided to solve for the force the truck experienced, we find: 20,000*10/0.01 = 20,000,000.

I hope this helps!

In space movies, spacecrafts explode and oxygen is needed for a fire to start. Why is it wrong? What would really happen?
Triss [41]

Answer:

Hey

The reason these "space movies" are wrong is because objects in "space" (not in a "space" craft) can't catch on fire because there is no air in "space".

Three point charges are arranged along the x-axis. Charge q1 = +3.00 uC is at the origin, and charge q2= -5.00 uC is at x= 0.200
artcher [175]
We have all the charges for q1, q2, and q3. 
Since k = 8.988x10^2, and N=m^2/c^2

F(1) = F (2on1) + F (3on1)

F(2on1) = k |q1 q2| / r(the distance between the two)^2
k^ | 3x10^-6 x -5 x 10^-6 |   / (.2m)^2
F(2on1) = 3.37 N

Since F1 is 7N,

F(1) = F (2on1) + F (3on1)
7N = 3.37 N + F (3on1)

Since it wil be going in the negative direction,
-7N = 3.37 N + F (3on1)
F(3on1) = -10.37N

F(3on1) = k |q1 q3| / r(the distance between the two)^2 
r^2 x F(3on1) = k |q1 q3| 
r = sqrt of k |q1 q3| / F(3on1) 
= .144 m (distance between q1 and q3)
0 - .144m 

So it's located in -.144m

Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

Steam enters a one-inlet, two-exit control volume at location (1) at 360°C, 100 bar, with a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inlet
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass flow rate = 2 kg/s

Diameter of inlet pipe = 5.2 cm

Fifteen percent of the flow leaves through location (2)  and the remainder leaves at (3)

The mass flow rate is

m_{2}=0.15\times2

We need to calculate the mass flow rate at reach exit

Using formula of mass

m_{3}=m_{1}-m_{2}

m_{3}=2-0.15\times2

m_{3}=1.7\ kg/s

We need to calculate the inlet velocity

Using formula of velocity

v=\dfrac{m}{\rho A}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{2}{42.868\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times(5.2\times10^{-2})^2}

v=21.9\ m/s

Hence, The inlet velocity is 21.9 m/s.

The mass flow rate at reach exit is 1.7 kg/s.
