Acceleration is a vector quantity which means that it concerns about the direction and the velocity. Thus, the question above may be answered by two of the choices. Those are letter "C. direction" and letter "D. displacement".

The largest graduated cylinder in my lab holds 2 L and has an inner diamter (the part that holds the water) of 8 cm. When it is

mestny [16]

Answer:

3924 Pa

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder = 2 L = 0.002 m^3 (1000 L = 1 m^3)

diameter of the inner cylinder = 8 cm = 0.08 m (100 cm = 1 m)

radius of the inner cylinder = diameter/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04 m

area of the inner cylinder = $\pi r^{2}$

where $\pi$ = 3.142,

and r = radius = 0.04 m

area of inner cylinder = 3.142 x $0.04^{2}$ = 0.005 m^2

height h of the water in this cylinder = volume/area

h = 0.002/0.005 = 0.4 m

pressure at the bottom of the cylinder due to the height of water = pgh

where

p = density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h = height of water within this cylinder = 0.4 m

pressure = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.4 = 3924 Pa

Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distanc

kumpel [21]

Answer: $\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}$

Explanation:

Given

car A had a head start of $D_A$

and it starts at x=0 and t=0

Car B has to travel a distance of $D_A and d_a$

where $d_a$ is the distance travel by car A in time t

distance travel by car A is

$d_a=v_A\times t$

For car B with speed $v_B$

$d_B=D_A+d_a$

$v_B\times t=D_A+v_A\times t$

$t=\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}$

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun an

lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of star M(star) = 1.99×10^30kg

Gravitational constant G

G = 6.67×10^−11 N⋅m²/kg²

Diameter d = 25km

d = 25,000m

R = d/2 = 25,000/2

R = 12,500m

Weight w = 690N

Then, the person mass which is constant can be determined using

W =mg

m = W/g

m = 690/9.81

m = 70.34kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star is can be determined using

g(star) = GM(star)/R²

g(star) = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.99×10^30 / 12500²

g (star) = 8.49 × 10¹¹ m/s²

Then, the person weight on neutron star is

W = mg

Mass is constant, m = 70.34kg

W = 70.34 × 8.49 × 10¹¹

W = 5.98 × 10¹³ N

The weight of the person on neutron star is 5.98 × 10¹³ N
