Acceleration causes a shift of weight to the ______.

Physics
1 answer:
marta [7]3 years ago
7 0
Vehicle weight shifts can be backward forward. In this particular case accelerating to fast would cause a shift of weight backwards. Breaking too quickly on the other hand would cause weight to shift forward. You have seen this while in a car or a bus at the traffic light. As the vehicle breaks you are pulled forward as it starts moving you are pulled backwards.

Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?
IrinaVladis [17]
If the echo (the reflected sound) reaches your ear less than about
0.1 second after the original sound, your brain doesn't separate them,
and you're not aware of the echo even though it's there.

If the echo comes from, say, a wall, 0.1 second means you'd have to be
about  17 meters away from the wall.  If you're closer than that, then the
echo reaches you in less than 0.1 second and you're not aware of it.

A. 30 meters . . .
     No.  You hear that echo easily

B.  you're standing within range of both sounds . . .
     No. You hear that echo easily, if you're at least 17 meters from the wall.

C.  less than 0.1 second later . . .
     That's it.  The echo is there but your brain doesn't know it.

D.  21.5 meters
     No.  You hear that echo easily.

How is the direction of light changed when it travels from an optically denser medium to an optically rarer medium????? please a
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The light bends away from the normal

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Snell's law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where:

n_1 is the index of refraction of the first medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the second medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence (angle between the incoming ray and the normal to the interface)

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction (angle between the outcoming ray and the normal to the interface)

We can rearrange the equation as

sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1

In this problem, light travels from an optically denser medium to an optically rarer medium, so

n_1 > n_2

Therefore, the term \frac{n_1}{n_2} is greater than 1, so

sin \theta_2 > sin \theta_1\\\rightarrow \theta_2 > \theta_1

which means that the angle of refraction is greater than the angle of incidence, and so the light will bend away from the normal.

A car is up on a hydraulic lift at a garage. The wheels are free to rotate, and the drive wheels are rotating with a constant an
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wheels are rotating with constant angular velocity let say \omega

Presence of constant angular velocity show that there is no angular acceleration thus there is no tangential acceleration.

But any particle on the rim will experience a constant acceleration towards center called centripetal acceleration.

(a) yes, there will be tangential velocity which is given by

v=r\cdot \omega

where r=radial distance from center

(b)tangential acceleration

there would be no tangential acceleration as velocity is constant

(c)centripetal acceleration

Yes, there will be centripetal acceleration given by

a_c=\omega ^2\times r

an empty boat floats in water with 10% of its volume submerged. and when it is loaded with 1200kg , the volume submerged will in
Lostsunrise [7]

Let volume of empty boat be = 100% = 1V

and mass of boat be M

In water 10%, 0.1V of the volume is submerged.

Mass, m of 1200kg increases the submerging from 10%, 0.1V to 70%, 0.7V

M leads to 0.1V boat submerging

boat submerging.

M + 1200kg leads to 0.7V boat submerging.

This is 60%, 0.6 V increase

By comparison

(M+1200kg) * 0.1V = 0.7V * M

0.1M + 120kg = 0.7M

120kg = 0.7M - 0.1M

120kg = 0.6M

M = (120/0.6)kg

M = 200kg.

The mass of the boat is 200kg.
