Explanation:

Plasma can conduct electricity because plasma consists of electrically charged particles called ions, instead of uncharged particles such as atoms or molecules.

Suppose that the period of a particular ideal mass-spring system is 5 s . What would be the period of the system if the mass wer
yan [13]

Answer: T2 = 7.07s

Explanation: The period of a loaded spring of spring constant k and mass m is given by

T= 2π √m/k

With 2π constant and k, it can be seen with little algebra that

T² is proportional to mass m

Hence (T1)²/m1 = (T2) ²/m2

Where T1 = 5, T2 =?, let m1 = m hence m2 = 2m.

By substituting, we have that

5²/m = (T2) ²/2m

25 / m = (T2) ²/2m

25 × 2m = (T2) ² × m

25 × 2 = (T2) ²

50 = (T2) ²

T2 = √50

T2 = 7.07s

By how many newtons does the weight of a 85.9-kg person lose when he goes from sea level to an altitude of 6.33 km if we neglect
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Weight\ loss=1.6321N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Weight W=85.9kg

Altitude h= 6.33 km

Let

Radius of Earth r=6380km

Gravity g=9.8m/s^2

Generally the equation for Gravity at altitude is mathematically given by

 g_s=9.8(\frac{6380}{6380+6.33})^2

 g_s=9.781m/s^2

Therefore

Weight at sea level

 W_s=9.8*85.9

 W_s=841.82N

Weight at 6.33 altitude

 W_a=9.781*85.9

 W_a=840.2N

Therefore

 Weight loss=W_s-W_b

 Weight loss=841.82-840.2

 Weight loss=1.6321N

a missile is moving 1810 m/s at a 20.0. It needs to hit a target 29,500m away in a 65.0 magnitude in 9.20s. What acceleration mu
Vesna [10]

Answer:

323 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

y₀ = 0 m

x = 29500 cos 65°

y = 29500 sin 65°

v₀x = 1810 cos 20°

v₀y = 1810 sin 20°

t = 9.20

Find:

ax, ay, θ

First, in the x direction:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

29500 cos 32° = 0 + (1810 cos 20°) (9.20) + ½ ax (9.20)²

25017 = 15648 + 42.32 ax

ax ≈ 221.4

And in the y direction:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

29500 sin 32° = 0 + (1810 sin 20°) (9.20) + ½ ay (9.20)²

15633 = 5695 + 42.32 ay

ay ≈ 234.8

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration is:

a² = ax² + ay²

a² = (221.4)² + (234.8)²

a ≈ 322.7

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is approximately 323 m/s².

Young's Modulus of elasticity is a) Shear stress/Shear strain b) Tensile stress/Shear strain 9. c) Shear stress /Tensile strairn
slava [35]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Young's modulus is the ratio of tensile stress and tensile strain.

Bulk modulus is the ratio of pressure and volume strain.

Rigidity modulus is the ratio of shear stress and shear strain.

Here we are asked about Young's modulus which is the ratio of tensile stress and tensile strain.

Option C is the correct answer.

Emily holds a banana of mass m over the edge of a bridge of height h. She drops the banana and it falls to the river below. Use
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The speed of the banana just before it hits the water is:

√(2 · g · h) = v

Explanation:

Hi there!

Before Emily throws the banana, its potential energy is:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

PE = potential energy.

m = mass of the banana.

g = acceleration of the banana due to gravity.

h = height of the bridge (distance from the bridge to the ground).

When the banana reaches the water, all its potential energy will have converted to kinetic energy. The equation for kinetic energy is as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

KE = kinetic energy.

m = mass of the banana.

v = speed.

Then, when the banana hits the water:

m · g · h = 1/2 · m · v²

multiply by 2 and divide by m both sides of the equation:

2 · g · h = v²

√(2 · g · h) = v
