<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>

You have a pulley 10.4 cm in diameter and with a mass of 2.3 kg. You get to wondering whether the pulley is uniform. That is, is

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of Pulley=10.4 cm

mass of Pulley(m)=2.3 kg

mass of book $(m_0)=1.7 kg$

height(h)=1 m

time taken=0.64 s

$h=ut+frac{at^2}{2}$

$1=0+\frac{a(0.64)^2}{2}$

$a=4.88 m/s^2and [tex]a=\alpha r$

where $\alpha$ is angular acceleration of pulley

$4.88=\alpha \times 5.2\times 10^{-2}$

$\alpha =93.84 rad/s^2$

And Tension in Rope

$T=m(g-a)$

$T=1.7\times (9.8-4.88)$

T=8.364 N

and Tension will provide Torque

$T\times r=I\cdot \alpha$

$8.364\times 5.2\times 10^{-2}=I\times 93.84$

$I=0.463\times 10^{-2} kg-m^2$

$I_{original}=\frac{mr^2}{2}=0.31\times 10^{-2}kg-m^2$

Thus mass is uniformly distributed or some more towards periphery of Pulley

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 23.0 m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 40

Len [333]

If its asking the distance for the 65 db then use a proportion, if otherwise pleas clarify. It sounds like a pretty juicy conversation.

A person holds a portable fire extinguisher that ejects 1.0kg of water per second horizontally at a speed of 6.0 m/s. What newto

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

6 N

Explanation:

$\dfrac{m}{t}$ = Mass flow rate = 1 kg/s

v = Final velocity = 6 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Force is obtained when we divide change in momentum by time

$F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{m}{t}(v-u)\\\Rightarrow F=1(6-0)\\\Rightarrow F=6\ N$

The force the person exert on the extinguisher in order to prevent it from accelerating is 6 N

How does an increase in thermal energy affect the state of matter?

shusha [124]

Answer:

When thermal energy is added to a substance, its temperature increases, which can change its state from solid to liquid (melting), liquid to gas (vaporization), or solid to gas (sublimation). ... When the pressure exerted on a substance increases, it can cause the substance to condense.

Shareen finds that when she drives her motorboat upstream she can travelwith a speed of only 8 m/s, while she moves with a speed

ANEK [815]

Let vb be the velocity of the motorboat and let vs be the velocity of the stream.

We know that when she drives upstream the velocity is 8 m/s, in this scenario the velocities point in opposite directions, then we have the equations:

$v_b-v_s=8$

When she drives downstream the velocites point in the same direction then we have the equation:

$v_b+v_s=12$

hence we have the system of equations:

$\begin{gathered} v_b-v_s=8 \\ v_b+v_s=12 \end{gathered}$

Solving the first equation for the velocity of the boat we have:

$v_b=8+v_s$

Plugging this in the second equation we have:

$\begin{gathered} 8+v_s+v_s=12 \\ 2v_s=4 \\ v_s=\frac{4}{2} \\ v_s=2 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the velocity of the stream is 2 m/s
