Answer:

The answer is A. The sweater has a tendency to attract electrons.

Explanation:

Taking into account the flow of electric charge, it is understood that when a body comes into contact with another and passes its electrons to it; The body that loses electrons is positively charged, while the body that gains or receives electrons is negatively charged. So it is concluded that the sweater is receiving electrons from the jacket.

an empty bottle has a mass of 24,25 grams and 86,55 grams completely full-filled with water. Then, water in the bottle is emptie
ladessa [460]
The density of a substance is the quotient we obtain when we divide its mass by the volume. The density is,
                          density = mass / volume
The mass of carbon tetrachloride is given to be 123.95 grams and that the volume is obtained by subtracting final weight of the completely full-filled with water bottle with the initial weight.
                              86.55 - 24.25 = 62.3 grams
Since the density of water is 1 grams/ cc. Then, the volume of the bottle is also 62.3 cc. The density is therefore,
                       density = 123.95 grams/ 62.3 cc = 1.99 g/cc

A 57 kg person in a rollercoaster moving through the bottom of a curved track of radius 42.7 m feels a normal force of 995 N. Ho
natita [175]

Answer:

Use Fc centripetal force as positive and W the weight as negative

N = m v^2 / R + m g

v^2 = (N - m g) R / m

v^2 = (995 - 57 * 9.8) 42.7 / 57 = 327 m^2/s^2

v = 18.1 m/s

Note: N - m g is the net force producing the centripetal force

A tennis player practices against a wall, hitting a 0.1 kg ball towards the
pantera1 [17]

Answer: 80 Newton

Explanation:

Initial velocity of ball = +20 m/s.

Final velocity of ball = -20 m/s

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Time taken = 0.05 seconds

Average force = (Change in momentum of moving ball / Time taken)

Since, change in momentum = Mass (final velocity - initial velocity)

Change in momentum =0.1 x (-20 - (+20))

= 0.1 x (-20-20)

= 0.1 x (-40)

= -4.0 kgm/s

Then, put -4.0 kgm/s in the equation of force when Average Force = (Change in momentum / Time taken)

= (-4.0kgm/s / 0.05 seconds)

= 80Newton (note that the negative sign does not reflect on the magnitude of force)

Thus, the average force exerted on the ball is 80N

Discuss how oxygen is used in spacecraft's air supplies in at least 3 paragraphs.
galina1969 [7]

Short-duration spacecraft typically have one backup system and carry their own supply of oxygen. A large portion of the required oxygen is produced on long-duration missions, such as the International Space Station (ISS), which has been in orbit since 1998. Different sources provide the oxygen utilized on the ISS. The water electrolyzer is the primary source of metabolic oxygen. As an alternative to the electrolyzer, oxygen candles (also known as SFOGs) can produce metabolic oxygen. Additionally, oxygen is carried up whenever a cargo ship docks and stored in two tanks on the ISS Airlock. The electrolyzer electrolyzes water to create oxygen by running an electric current through it. Since water is a poor electrical conductor by itself, a little quantity of common salt is dissolved in the water to improve its electrical conductivity. Water is split into hydrogen and oxygen throughout the process.

We must keep in mind that oxygen by itself cannot be inhaled; it must be combined in the proper ratio with nitrogen to make it breathable. Two tanks aboard the ISS are used to store nitrogen, and the cargo ships that travel by from time to time also transport nitrogen cylinders. Through the electrical grid of the station, the solar panels on the station supply the necessary electricity for the oxygen generators. The majority of the required water is transported to the station by cargo supply ships. Condensers, which draw water vapor even from the station's air, ensure that not a drop of water is wasted. Using the proper equipment, water is also recycled from the astronauts' urine.

Through a suitable vent, the hydrogen gas produced during the electrolysis process is released into space. Pressurized tanks at the airlock nodes at the space station are pumped with oxygen when the cargo vehicles arrive there. Pressurized tanks there are also pumped with nitrogen. It goes without saying that the station's atmospheric controls combine the gases in the right amounts for the atmosphere of Earth and then distribute the combination throughout the cabin. The production of oxygen in space is impossible.
