Answer:

The mass of the aluminum chunk is 258 g

Explanation:

Given;

mass of steel container = 120-g

mass of water = 150 g

initial temperature of water, = 25°C

mass of copper cube, $M_{cu}$ = 200 g

initial temperature of the copper cube, $T_c_u$ = 85°C

initial temperature of the aluminum chunk $T_A_l$ = 5.0°C

Neglecting heat loss, heat exchanged by the two metallic objects is the same since initial temperature is equal to final temperature of water.

$M_{Al}C_{Al} \delta T_{Al} = M_{cu}C_{cu} \delta T_{cu}$

where;

$C_{AL}$ is specific heat capacity of aluminum

$\delta T_{Al}$ is change in temperature of aluminum

$C_c_u$ is the specific heat capacity of copper

$\delta T_c_u$ is the change in temperature of copper

$M_{Al}C_{Al} \delta T_{Al} = M_{cu}C_{cu} \delta T_{cu} \\\\M_{Al} = \frac{M_{cu}C_{cu} \delta T_{cu}}{C_{Al} \delta T_{Al}} \\\\M_{Al} = \frac{0.2*387*60}{900*20} = 0.258 \ kg$

Therefore, the mass of the aluminum chunk is 258 g

If μs is greater than some critical value, the woman cannot start the crate moving no matter how hard she pushes. calculate this

fiasKO [112]

weight = mg acts downwards 
normal force = N acts upwards.
and force F acts at an angle θ below the horizontal.
(Let us assume that the woman pushes from the left, so F is acted towards the right, which is below the horizontal)
so that, Frictional force, f=us*N acts towards the left

Now we balance the forces along x and y directions:
y direction: N = mg + F sinΘ
x direction: us * N = F cosΘ

We let the value of µs be equal to a value such that any F will not be able to move the crate. Then, if we increase F by an amount F', then the force pushing the crate towards the right also increases by F' cosΘ. Additionally, the frictional force f must raise by exactly this amount.
Since f can’t exceed us*N, so the normal force must increase by F' cosΘ/us.
Also, from the y direction equation, the normal force exceeds by F' sin Θ.

These two values must be the same, therefore:
us = cot θ

Two vectors are shown. Which statement best compares the vectors?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Because vector Y is longer than vector X

so when you take a magnitude( without minus ) each other

you see that Y>X
