<span>Generally speaking, the level of molecular motion is highest in gases, where molecules move around freely in space, bouncing off of each other, and lowest in solids, where molecules are bound together in a rigid structure. As such, the answer would be A; "the molecules in air move more than the molecules in wood".</span>

4.5 billion km, the average separation between the sun and Neptune (report answer in hours). How long does it take light to trav
Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.17 hours

Explanation:

given,

The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km

                                                                         = 4.5 x 10⁹ Km

                                                                          = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m

The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.

                                           <em>V = d / t    m/s</em>

∴                                           t = d / V

                                               = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s

                                               = 15,000 s

                                               = 4.17 h

Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h

weegy a 7.5kg block is placed on a table. if its bottom surface area is 0.6m2 , how much pressure does the block exert on the ta
Lesechka [4]

The pressure exerted by the block on the table is given by:

p=\frac{W}{A}

where W is the weight of the box, and A is the bottom surface area of the box.

The weight of the box is: W=mg=(7.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=73.6 N

Substituting into the first equation, we find the pressure:

p=\frac{W}{A}=\frac{73.6 N}{0.6 m^2}=122.7 Pa

Sally and Sam are in a spaceship that comes to within 17,000 km of the asteroid Ceres. Determine the force Sally experiences, in
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

0.01606 Newtons

Explanation:

r = Distance between the asteroid and Sally = 17000000 m

m₁ = Mass of the asteroid = 8.7× 10²⁰ kg

m₂ = Mass of Sally = 80 kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

From Newton's Universal law of gravity

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \frac{8.7\times 10^{20}\times 80}{17000000^2}\\\Rightarrow F=0.01606\ N

The force Sally experiences is 0.01606 Newtons

Consider a spring mass system (mass m1, spring constant k) with period T1. Now consider a spring mass system with the same sprin
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Assuming that both mass here move horizontally on a frictionless surface, and that this spring follows Hooke's Law, then the mass of m_2 would be four times that of m_1.

Explanation:

In general, if the mass in a spring-mass system moves horizontally on a frictionless surface, and that the spring follows Hooke's Law, then

\displaystyle \frac{m_2}{m_1} = \left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^2.

Here's how this statement can be concluded from the equations for a simple harmonic motion (SHM.)

In an SHM, if the period is T, then the angular velocity of the SHM would be

\displaystyle \omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}.

Assume that the mass starts with a zero displacement and a positive velocity. If A represent the amplitude of the SHM, then the displacement of the mass at time t would be:

\mathbf{x}(t) = A\sin(\omega\cdot t).

The velocity of the mass at time t would be:

\mathbf{v}(t) = A\,\omega \, \cos(\omega\, t).

The acceleration of the mass at time t would be:

\mathbf{a}(t) = -A\,\omega^2\, \sin(\omega \, t).

Let m represent the size of the mass attached to the spring. By Newton's Second Law, the net force on the mass at time t would be:

\mathbf{F}(t) = m\, \mathbf{a}(t) = -m\, A\, \omega^2 \, \cos(\omega\cdot t),

Since it is assumed that the mass here moves on a horizontal frictionless surface, only the spring could supply the net force on the mass. Therefore, the force that the spring exerts on the mass will be equal to the net force on the mass. If the spring satisfies Hooke's Law, then the spring constant k will be equal to:

\begin{aligned} k &= -\frac{\mathbf{F}(t)}{\mathbf{x}(t)} \\ &= \frac{m\, A\, \omega^2\, \cos(\omega\cdot t)}{A \cos(\omega \cdot t)} \\ &= m \, \omega^2\end{aligned}.

Since \displaystyle \omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}, it can be concluded that:

\begin{aligned} k &= m \, \omega^2 = m \left(\frac{2\pi}{T}\right)^2\end{aligned}.

For the first mass m_1, if the time period is T_1, then the spring constant would be:

\displaystyle k = m_1\, \left(\frac{2\pi}{T_1}\right)^2.

Similarly, for the second mass m_2, if the time period is T_2, then the spring constant would be:

\displaystyle k = m_2\, \left(\frac{2\pi}{T_2}\right)^2.

Since the two springs are the same, the two spring constants should be equal to each other. That is:

\displaystyle m_1\, \left(\frac{2\pi}{T_1}\right)^2 = k = m_2\, \left(\frac{2\pi}{T_2}\right)^2.

Simplify to obtain:

\displaystyle \frac{m_2}{m_1} = \left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^2.
