Consider the following statements about Newton's 2nd law in general. Select all of the statements that are true. Note, there may

Art [367]

Answer:

1. True

2. False

3. True

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law states that the net force exerted on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$\sum F = ma$ (1)

where

$\sum F$ is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is the acceleration

Furthermore, we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

So let's now analyize the three statements:

1. A net force causes velocity to change: TRUE. Net force (means non-zero) causes a non-zero acceleration, which means that the velocity of the object must change.

2. If an object has a velocity, then we can conclude that there is a net force on the object: FALSE. The fact that the object has a velocity does not imply anything about its acceleration: in fact, if its velocity is constant, then its acceleration is zero, which would mean that the net force on the object is zero. So this statement is not necessarly true.

3. Accelerations are caused by the presence of a net force: TRUE. This is directly implied by eq.(1): the presence of the net force results in the object having a non-zero acceleration.

To calibrate the calorimeter electrically, a constant voltage of 3.6 V is applied and a current of 2.6 A flows for a period of 3

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$372.3 J/^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the total energy supplied to the calorimeter.

We know that:

V = 3.6 V is the voltage applied

I = 2.6 A is the current

So, the power delivered is

$P=VI=(3.6)(2.6)=9.36 W$

Then, this power is delivered for a time of

t = 350 s

Therefore, the energy supplied is

$E=Pt=(9.36)(350)=3276 J$

Finally, the change in temperature of an object is related to the energy supplied by

$E=C\Delta T$

where in this problem:

E = 3276 J is the energy supplied

C is the heat capacity of the object

$\Delta T =29.1^{\circ}-20.3^{\circ}=8.8^{\circ}C$ is the change in temperature

Solving for C, we find:

$C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}=\frac{3276}{8.8}=372.3 J/^{\circ}C$

a speed swimmer love to race around the parks pine which is 25m around if she can swim 20 laps in 7200s what is her average spee

aleksley [76]

Answer:

the average speed of the swimmer is 0.069 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

complete distance around the park pine, d = 25 m

total lap completed, = 20 laps

time of laps completion, t = 7200 s

The total distance completed by the swimmer = 20 x 25 = 500 m

The average speed of the swimmer = distance / time

= (500 m) / (7200 s)

= 0.069 m/s.

Therefore, the average speed of the swimmer is 0.069 m/s.
