Answer:

b

Explanation:

The Sun exert a gravitational pull on the earth just as the earth exert gravitational pull on the sun but the sun mass is bigger than the earth, hence the earth orbits round the sun in elliptical orbit due to the greater gravitational pull of the sun.

g Design an experiment you can use to determine the mass of the metal cylinder. When you explain your experiment, be sure to men
kumpel [21]

Answer:

m = \frac{k}{g} x,

graph of x vs m

Explanation:

For this exercise, the simplest way to determine the mass of the cylinder is to take a spring and hang the mass, measure how much the spring has stretched and calculate the mass, using the translational equilibrium equation

              F_e -W = 0

              k x = m g

              m = \frac{k}{g} x

We are assuming that you know the constant k of the spring, if it is not known you must carry out a previous step, calibrate the spring, for this a series of known masses are taken and hung by measuring the elongation (x) from the equilibrium position, with these data a graph of x vs m is made to serve as a spring calibration.

  In the latter case, the elongation measured with the cylinder is found on the graph and the corresponding ordinate is the mass

A ball thrown straight up climbs for 3.0 sec before falling. Neglecting air resistance, with what velocity was the ball thrown?
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Speed, u = 29.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that, A ball thrown straight up climbs for 3.0 sec before falling, t = 3 s

Let u is speed with which the ball is thrown up. When the ball falls, v = 0

Using first equation of motion as :

v = u + at

Here, a = -g

So, u = g × t

u=9.8\times 3

u = 29.4 m/s

So, the speed with which the ball was thrown is 29.4 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

When is the magnitude of the acceleration of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Now we know that Force is the rate of change of momentum meaning

F= mv/t

But

mv/t = Ke

v/t = ke/m

a= ke/m

Where a is acceleration

K is constant of proportionality of tension on a spring

e is the extension substended by a string.

From the formula of acceleration we can see that as mass decreases acceleration increases so we can see that m = 1

We would have a maximum value of acceleration.

A steam stream of 400 m3 /s, standard (standard cubic meter per second) is cooled by adding 7 m3 /s cold water. The fluid leavin
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer: 510 m/s

Explanation: specific gravity of steam is 18/29 = 0.620

It is the ratio of the density of steam over density of water

400m3/s of steam =

400m3ms * 0.620 of water

= 248m3/s of water

Total flow rate Q = 248 + 7 = 255m3/s

Using Q = AV

Where A is area and V is velocity

V = Q/A

V = 255/0.5 = 510m/s

Which object represents a negatively charged particle? which object represents a positively charged molecule? which object repre
kari74 [83]

The answers to your questions are as written below:

  • The objects that represents a negatively charged particle is : Image B
  • The object that represents a positively charged molecule is : Image A
  • The object that represents an uncharged molecule is : Image C
  • The object the will not move when in an electric fied is : Image C

<h3>Different types of charges molecules</h3>

A negatively charged molecule move inwards when placed in an electric field while positively charged molecule placed in a electric field will move outwards the electric field.

A neutral/uncharged molecule will remains still when placd in an elctric field due to the absence of charges.

Hence we can concude that the answers to your questions are as listed above.
