When you step inside a warm ski lodge on a cold day, you find your glasses fog. why does this occur?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: Condensation of moisture in the air onto the glasses.

Explanation:
When you come from a cold environment into a warm ski lodge, the glasses are at a much lower temperature than that of the lodge.
Because the air in the room contains moisture (water vapor), it condenses on a surface whose temperature is lower than the dew point of the room.

A dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The angle is $\theta = 15.48^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of the dartboard from the dart is $d = 3.66 \ m$

The time taken is $t = 0.455 \ s$

The horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

$u_x = ucos \theta$

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

$distance = velocity \ in \ the\ x-direction * time$

substituting values

$3.66 = ucos \theta * (0.455)$

=> $ucos \theta = 8.04 \ m/s$

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{2usin \theta }{g}$

=> $usin \theta = \frac{g * t}{2 }$

$usin \theta = \frac{9.8 * 0.455}{2 }$

$usin \theta = 2.23$

=> $tan \theta = \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta } = \frac{2.23}{8.04}$

$\theta = tan^{-1} [0.277]$

$\theta = 15.48^o$

1. A car’s velocity increases from 4.0 m/s to 36 m/s over a 4.0 second time interval. What is its average acceleration?

Finger [1]

Explanation:

36-4/4= 9 m/squared. meter per squared.

acceleration unit is meter per second Square.equation is velocity by time.for average final(36) minus initial(4)

Assuming that Albertine's mass is 60.0 kg , for what value of μk, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.101$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Albertine, m = 60 kg

It can be assumed, the spring constant of the spring, k = 95 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 5 m

A glass sits 19.8 m from her outstretched foot, h = 19.8 m

When she just reach the glass without knocking it over, a force of friction will also act on it. Using the conservation of energy for the spring mass system such that,

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\mu_k mgh$

$\mu_k=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mgh}$

$\mu_k=\dfrac{95\times (5)^2}{2\times 60\times 9.8\times 19.8}$

$\mu_k=0.101$

So, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the waxed floor is 0.101. Hence, this is the required solution.

A. State whether the acceleration is positive, negative or zero for each section in the speed versus

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a=positive

b=0

c=positive

d=negative

Explanation:

a=acceleration depends on the speed and time. if the speed and time are increasing at the same rate, the acceleration value will be positive as the vehicle is speeding up.

b=the speed and time are not increasing, therefore the vehicle is either stationary or travelling at a steady pace.

c=same explanation as a

d=the speed and time are not increasing at the same rate as the speed is decreasing. this means that the car is slowing down
