Planets revolve and rotate, they go around something and they spin, pretend they are on a road(orbit path) while they rotate and revolve. It's liking rolling a chunk of playdough in your hands to form a ball. same goes for asteroids, stars are auctally gases so that one I'm not sure how to answer.

Find the weight of a 4.2 kg backpack,<br> A) 41.16 N<br> B) 0.42 kg<br> C) 41.16 kg<br> D) 0.42 N
Olin [163]

Answer:

Although the weight is given and we are asked for the weight, the odd wording of the question implies that we are being asked for the gravitational force on the backpack.

If it is gravitational force that is being requested, then the correct answer is A) 41.16 Newtons.

If it is actual weight being asked for, then none of the answers are correct, as the weight of 4.2 kg is given in the question, and does not match any of the answers.

a water line starts the service with an altitude of 1200m over the sea level, what is the velocity of the water above 1050 m ove
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Velocity = 94.85m/s

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data ;</u>

Height = 1200m

Vertical distance = 1050m

To find the time, we would use the second equation of motion;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

1200 = 0(t) + \frac {1}{2}*9.8*t^{2}

1200 = 0 + 4.9*t^{2}

1200 = 4.9*t^{2}

t^{2} = \frac {1200}{4.9}

t = \sqrt{122.45}

t = 11.07 secs

To find the velocity;

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}

Substituting into the above equation;

Velocity = \frac{1050}{11.07}

Velocity = 94.85m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the water above 1050 m over the sea level is 94.85m/s.

Carbon bums in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide. Which chemical equation describes this reaction?
diamong [38]

B. carbon + oxygen -- carbon dioxide

Explanation:

The best equation that describes a reaction where carbon combines by burning in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide is:

    carbon + oxygen -- carbon dioxide

Every chemical reaction is made up of reactants and products

Reactants are the species on the left hand side of an equation, the products are those on the right hand side.

The reactants combines chemically to give produces.

The kind of reaction depicted above is a synthesis or combination reaction where two species combines to gives a product or more;

               C   +   O₂    →    CO₂

PLEASE PROVIDE AN EXPLANATION.<br><br> THANKS!!!
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

(a) A = 0.0800 m, λ = 20.9 m, f = 11.9 Hz

(b) 250 m/s

(c) 1250 N

(d) Positive x-direction

(e) 6.00 m/s

(f) 0.0365 m

Explanation:

(a) The standard form of the wave is:

y = A cos ((2πf) t ± (2π/λ) x)

where A is the amplitude, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

If the x term has a positive coefficient, the wave moves to the left.

If the x term has a negative coefficient, the wave moves to the right.

Therefore:

A = 0.0800 m

2π/λ = 0.300 m⁻¹

λ = 20.9 m

2πf = 75.0 rad/s

f = 11.9 Hz

(b) Velocity is wavelength times frequency.

v = λf

v = (20.9 m) (11.9 Hz)

v = 250 m/s

(c) The tension is:

T = v²ρ

where ρ is the mass per unit length.

T = (250 m/s)² (0.0200 kg/m)

T = 1250 N

(d) The x term has a negative coefficient, so the wave moves to the right (positive x-direction).

(e) The maximum transverse speed is Aω.

(0.0800 m) (75.0 rad/s)

6.00 m/s

(f) Plug in the values and find y.

y = (0.0800 m) cos((75.0 rad/s) (2.00 s) − (0.300 m⁻¹) (1.00 m))

y = 0.0365 m

(5) A 4 kg. object rests on a flat, horizontal surface with a static
baherus [9]

Answer:

F = 9.81 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's third le which tells us that the sum of forces on a body that remains static must be equal to one resulting from these forces in the opposite direction.

Let's perform a summation of forces on the vertical axis-y to determine the normal force N.

∑F = 0 (axis-y)

N - m*g = 0

where:

m = mass = 4 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

N - (4*9.81)=0\\N = 39.24 [N]

Now we know that the frictional force can be calculated using the following equation.

f = μ*N

where:

f = friction force [N]

μ = friction coefficient = 0.25

N = normal force = 39.24 [N]

Now replacing:

f = 0.25*39.24\\f = 9.81[N]

Then we perform a sum of forces on the X-axis equal to zero. This sum of forces allows us to determine the minimum force to be able to move the object in a horizontal direction.

∑F = 0 (axis-x)

F-f=0\\F-9.81=0\\F= 9.81[N]

If the coefficient was smaller, a smaller force (F) would be needed to start the movement, this can be easily seen by replacing the value of 0.25, by smaller values, such as 0.1 or 0.05.

If the coefficient were larger, a larger force would be needed.
