Answer:

Gastric juice is an acidic substance ( Strongly acidic)

Explanation:

According to the table shown in the question:

Gastric juice turns blue litmus paper to red
It is neutral to red litmus

Note: Any substance that turns blue litmus paper red and is neutral to red litmus paper is an acidic substance.

Moreover, gastric juice is a combination of Pepsin and HCl and it has a PH that varies between 1 and 3. This PH is typical of a strongly acidic substance.

A 56.0 kg box hangs from a rope. what is the tension in the rope if: the box has vy = 5.30 m/s and is speeding up at 5.10 m/s2 ?

Minchanka [31]

T = tension force in the rope in upward direction

m = mass of the box attached at end of rope = 56 kg

W = weight of the box in downward direction due to gravity

a = acceleration of the box in upward direction = 5.10 m/s²

weight of the box is given as

W = mg

inserting the values

W = (56) (9.8)

W = 548.8 N

force equation for the motion of the box is given as

T - W = ma

inserting the values

T - 548.8 = (56) (5.10)

T = 834.4 N

Terry can ride 30 miles in 2 hours. If his riding speed is

Anni [7]

Answer: 20.4 miles

Explanation:

Here we need to use the equation:

Velocity = Distance/Time.

Initially we have that he can travel 30 miles in 2 hours, so the velocity is:

V = 30mi/2h = 15mph

Now, we reduce the velocity by 3 mph, so the new velocity is 15mph - 3 mph = 12mph.

Now we want to know the distance traveled in 1.7 hours with this velocity, this is.

Velocity*Time = Distance

12mi/h*1.7h = 20.4 miles

Two vehicles, a car and a truck, leave an intersection at the same time. the car heads east at an average speed of 50 miles pe

olya-2409 [2.1K]

The car heads east at an average speed of 50 miles per hour from the intersection point towards East. The truck heads east at an average speed of 60 miles per hour from the intersection point towards South.

The distance of car from the intersection point after t hours is $50t$ .

The distance of truck from the intersection point after t hours is $60t$ .

Since these distances are perpendicular to each other, distance apart d (in miles) at the end of t hours is

$d=\sqrt{(50t)^2+(60t)^2} \\ d=10\sqrt{61} t\\ d=78.1t$

Thus the distance apart is $d=78.1t \;miles$

ow long must a simple pendulum be if it is to make exactly ten swings per second? (That is, one complete vibration takes exactly

Igoryamba

The period T of a pendulum is given by:
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the length of the pendulum while $g=9.81 m/s^2$ is the gravitational acceleration.

In the pendulum of the problem, one complete vibration takes exactly 0.200 s, this means its period is $T=0.200 s$ . Using this data, we can solve the previous formula to find L:
$L=g ( \frac{T}{2\pi} )^2=(9.81 m/s^2)( \frac{0.2 s}{2 \pi} )^2=1 \cdot 10^{-3} m=1 mm$
