Explain the value or importance of using the international system of units when describing motion

Physics
1 answer:
adoni [48]3 years ago
5 0
<span>It is important to use the Système Internationale (SI) units to describe motion, and other scientific concepts, firstly because the units are the most widely used. Unit choice is largely arbitrary, however, because many scientific units are derived from the base SI units, for example, the Newton is kg m s-2. Thus, secondly, more complex units are based on the bedrock of the SI units.</span>

When a potential difference of 10 V is placed across a certain solid cylindrical resistor, the current through it is 2 A. If the
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

New Resistance = 0.5556 ohm

Explanation:

Resistance = resistivity * length /area

Here since resistivity and length are constant, we only need to see how the resistance increases or decreases with change in area.

New Area = pi * (3*D)^2 / 4

Old Area = pi * D^2 / 4

The ratio of new area / old area is :

\frac{New Area}{Old Area} = 9

Since area increases 9 times, and it is inversely proportional to resistance:

Resistance decreases by 9 times.

So, old resistance = Voltage / Current = 10 / 2 = 5 ohm

New Resistance = 5 / 9 = 0.5556 ohm    (decreases by 9 times)

A boy pulls a 28.0-kg box with a 230-N force at 35° above a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between t
ddd [48]

Answer:

1977.696 J

Explanation:

Given;

Weight of the box = 28.0 kg

Force applied by the boy = 230 N

angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°

Therefore,

the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ

= 230 × cos 35°

= 188.405 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24

Force by friction, f = μN

here,

N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity

or

N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N

therefore,

f = 0.24 × 274.68

or

f = 65.9232 N

Now,

work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement  

= 188.405 N × 30

= 5652.15 J

and,

the

work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement  

= - 65.9232 N × 30 m

= - 1977.696 J

[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]

What is meant by global warming?
pychu [463]

The global warming is the uniform heating of the globe due to the effect of greenhouse gases.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Global warming is thus the theory that says that earth is warming up with an increase in temperature over time due to increment in the greenhouse gases.

These are greenhouse gases that are getting increased due to the human activity or say over exploitation of the natural resources. The heating of the globe has caused ozone layer depletion which is also causing warming.
