Describe briefly one problem caused by the expansion of metals.​

Physics
1 answer:
lozanna [386]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The expansion and contraction of materials can also cause problems. For example, bridges expand in the summer heat and need special joints to stop them bending out of shape.A bimetallic strip has two metal strips glued together. One of these metals expands more for each degree temperature rise than that other.

IF U ANSWER I WILL MARK U BRAINLLIEST
goldfiish [28.3K]

Explanation:

a) Density is the amount of mass in a specific amount of volume

b) Some substances are less dense than water so will float and vice versa

c) The wooden plank has less density than water due to having larger volume and vice versa with the wooden block since volume and density are inversely proportional

II) (a) They are all metals

(b) water -> Compound

oxygen -> Element

Gold-> Element

Salt-> Compound

A uniform, 4.5 kg, square, solid wooden gate 2.0 mm on each side hangs vertically from a frictionless pivot at the center of its
True [87]

Answer:

The angular velocity is  w = 1.43\  rad/sec

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of wooden gate  is m_g = 4.5 kg

    The  length of side is  L = 2 m

    The mass of the raven is  m_r = 1.2 kg

     The initial speed of the raven is u_r = 5.0m/s

     The final speed of the raven is   v_r = 1.5 m/s

From the law of  conservation of angular momentum we express this question mathematically as

       Total initial angular momentum  of both the Raven and  the Gate =  The Final angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate  

The initial angular momentum of the Raven is m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}

Note: the length is half because the Raven hit the gate at the mid point

The initial angular momentum of the Gate is  zero

Note: This above is the generally formula for angular momentum of  square objects

  The final angular velocity  of the Raven is  m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}

   The  final angular velocity of the Gate  is   \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w

Substituting this formula

  m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}  =   \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w + m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2}

  \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w   =    m_r * v_r * \frac{L}{2} -   m_r * u_r * \frac{L}{2}

  \frac{1}{3} m_g L^2 w   =    m_r *  \frac{L}{2} * [u_r - v_r]

Where w is the angular velocity

     Substituting value  

   \frac{1}{3} (4.5)(2)^2  w   =    1.2 *  \frac{2}{2} * [5 - 1.5]

     6w = 4.2

       w = \frac{6}{4.2}

            w = 1.43\  rad/sec

An egg of mass 0.060 kg is dropped from the top of a building. Just before it reaches the ground, it has a total kinetic energy
3241004551 [841]

The velocity is 14 m/s

The parameters given on the question are

mass= 0.060 kg

kinetic energy= 5.9 joules

K.E= 1/2mv²

5.9= 1/2 × 0.060 × v²

5.9= 0.5 × 0.060v²

5.9= 003v²

v²= 5.9/0.03

v²= 196.66

v= √196.66

v= 14 m/s

Hence the velocity of the egg before it strikes the ground is 14 m/s

Which type of galaxy is a spherical cluster of stars with extraordinary brightness and little dust and gas?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Elliptical galaxies

Explanation:

Edwin Hubble classified galaxies into three categories

Elliptical

Spiral

Lenticular

The elliptical galaxies have an elipsoidal shape roughly. They have stars which are old and the primary light source of the galaxy. The formation of new stars is very limited. This increases the brightness of the galaxy. The mass of the stars are low. So, far the percentage elliptical galaxies is low compared to other galaxies.
