<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

Kilogram

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Mass is the quantity of matter in an object or a body. Mass is measured using units such as milligrams, grams, kilograms, etc. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Choosing an appropriate unit is key so as other units may either give very small or very large number value and thus making it difficult to estimate the magnitude of the quantity if inappropriate units are used.</u></em>
  • The most appropriate units to measure the mass of a person would therefore be kilograms.

A. Compare solids, liquids, and gases in terms of the way their volumes change (or don't change) when placed into different cont
svet-max [94.6K]

a) Solids keep shape, liquids take shape of containers but don't spill, gases take container's shape and spill out

b) if you heat gas, speed of its molecules will increase and they'll push the container's walls stronger, so the pressure will increase when the container heated

c) Heat flows from warmer to colder bodies

d) For monatomic gases it's U=1.5nRT only, molecular gas has bonds between atoms so total internal energy increases

e) Of gases

f) v=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}=321 m/s

g) U=5/2*nRT=37830.85 J

A bike with 15cm diameter wheels accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 7.1m/s over a distance of 35.4m. Determine the an
Finger [1]

Answer:

9.47 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Diameter = 15 cm, radius, r = diameter / 2 = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m, u = 0, v = 7.1 m/s,

s = 35.4 m

let a be the linear acceleration.

Use III equation of motion.

v^2 = u^2 + 2 a s

7.1 x 7.1 = 0 + 2 x a x 35.4

a = 0.71 m/s^2

Now the relation between linear acceleration and angular acceleration is

a = r x α

where,  α is angular acceleration

α = 0.71 / 0.075 = 9.47 rad/s^2

Examine the roller coaster track above. Assume there is negligible friction as the roller coaster moves from position A to posit
anyanavicka [17]

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

<h3>What is the energy of the roller coaster at point E?</h3>

The energy of a roller coaster could either be potential energy, kinetic energy or a combination of both potential and kinetic energy.

Using analogies, the energy of the roller coaster at point E can be compared to a falling fruit from a tree which falls onto a pavement and is the rolling towards the floor. Point E can be compared to the midpoint of the fall of the fruit.

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

In conclusion, the energy of the rollercoaster at E is both Kinetic and potential energy,
