As she filled the balloon up with air, the air, let’s say, was at room temperature and therefore was able to expand and fill the balloon. When air inside of the balloon was exposed to the cold air. The air molecules started to contract or come closer together. This causes the air to fill less area inside of the balloon and therefore making the balloon smaller.

A train has a length of 81.1 m and starts from rest with a constant acceleration at time t = 0 s. At this instant, a car just re
arlik [135]

Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2

Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.

We have for the car

distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s

the v car =  distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s

In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest

distance train = (a* t^2)/2

distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed

so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m

the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2

A cord of mass 0.65 kg is stretched between two supports 8.0 m apart. If the tension in the cord is 120 N, how long will it take
DedPeter [7]

The time taken by the pulse to travel from one support to the other is 0.208 s.

<h3>Given:</h3>

The mass of the cord is m = 0.65 kg.

The distance between the supports is, d = 8.0 m.

The tension in the cord is T = 120 N.

The time taken by the pulse to travel from one support to the other is given as,

v=\frac{d}{t}

t=\frac{d}{v}

Here, v is the linear velocity of a pulse. Its value is,

v=\sqrt{\frac{T d }{m} }

v=\sqrt{\frac{120 * 8}{0.65} }

v= 38.43 m/s

Then,

t=\frac{8}{38.43}

t=0.208 s

Thus, the time taken by the pulse to travel from one support to the other is 0.208 s.

Circular Motion A 650-kg car moving at 8.5 m/s takes a turn around a circle with a radius of 48.0 m. Determine the acceleration
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the car doesn't matter because On a flat curve the mass of the car does not affect the speed at which it can stay on the curve. You would need the mass if you were solving the the centripetal force acting on the car, but not the acceleration.

a=\frac{v^2}{r} and filling in

a=\frac{(8.5)^2}{48.0} and we need 2 significant digits in our answer. That means that

a = 1.5 m/sec²
