Answer:A

Explanation:matter normally occurs in three phases;solid, liquid and gases. They may change from one phase to another due to temperature difference.

The molecules that makes up solids are held together by bonds. When heat is added,the molecules begin to move as a result,the bonds break and it turns to liquid.this process is called melting. The reverse of melting is freezing.

Liquid are made up of molecules that moves more freely than solids. When heat is added to liquid,the molecules gain more energy and begins to move faster. This causes them to turn to gases.

This process is called evaporation. It occurs at different temperature for different substances.

The particles of gases move more faster and are separated by large distances. A gas can change back to a liquid through condensation.

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 24 kg , sit in seats opposite one another, what is the moment of inertia about the rot

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one child = 16 kg

Mass of second child = 24 kg

Suppose a playground toy has two seats, each 6.1 kg, attached to very light rods of length r = 1.5 m.

We need to calculate the moment of inertia

Using formula of moment of inertia

$I=I_{1}+I_{2}$

$I=(m+m_{1})\times r^2+(m+m_{2})\times r^2$

m = mass of seat

m₁ =mass of one child

m₂ = mass of second child

r = radius of rod

Put the value into the formula

$I=(16+6.1)\times(1.5)^2+(24+6.1)\times(1.5)^2$

$I=117.45\ kg-m^2$

Hence, The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

What will be the average velocity of a body falling in free fall on Earth for 3 s?

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

29.4m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time = 3s

Unknown:

Average velocity = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

v = u + gt

v is the average velocity

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

t is the time

So;

v = 0 + (9.8 x 3) = 29.4m/s

The half-life of the radioactive element beryllium-13 is 5 × 10-10 seconds, and half-life of the radioactive element beryllium-1

telo118 [61]

<h2>Answer: The half-life of beryllium-15 is 400 times greater than the half-life of beryllium-13.</h2>

Explanation:

The half-life $h$ of a radioactive isotope refers to its decay period, which is the average lifetime of an atom before it disintegrates.

In this case, we are given the half life of two elements:

beryllium-13: $h_{B-13}=5(10)^{-10}s=0.0000000005s$

beryllium-15: $h_{B-15}=2(10)^{-7}s=0.0000002s$

As we can see, the half-life of beryllium-15 is greater than the half-life of beryllium-13, but how great?

We can find it out by the following expression:

$h_{B-15}=X.h_{B-13}$

Where $X$ is the amount we want to find:

$X=\frac{h_{B-15}}{h_{B-13}}$

$X=\frac{2(10)^{-7}s}{5(10)^{-10}s}$

Finally:

$X=400$

Therefore:

The half-life of beryllium-15 is 400 times greater than the half-life of beryllium-13.

A missile is fired from a jet flying horizontally at Mach 1 (1100 ft/s). The missile has a horizontal acceleration of 1000 ft/s2

nadezda [96]

Answer: 11,100 ft/s^2

1) Constant acceleration=> uniformly accelerated motion.

2) Formula for uniformly accelerated motion:

Vf = Vo + at

3) Data:

Vo = 1,100 ft/s
a = 1,000 ft/s^2
t = 10.0 s

4) Solution:

Vf = 1,100 ft/s + 1,000 ft/s^2 * 10.0 s = 1,100 ft/s + 10,000 ft/s

Vf = 11,100 ft/s
