Well preservation

Explanation:
Fossil are dead remains of ancient creatures. By examining them carefully, scientists can predict about the habitat,nutrition form, body tissues ,morphology of creatures and hence it gives clues about evolution .

Microwave ovens have a plate that rotates at a rate of about 7.0 rev/min. What is this in revolutions per second?

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The value is $w = 0.1167 \ rev/second$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The rate at which the plate rotates is $w =7.0 \ rev/min$

Generally the revolution per second is mathematically represented as

$w = \frac{7.0}{60}$

=> $w = 0.1167 \ rev/second$

g When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 3.2 10-15 m before

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Time, $t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

Explanation:

Given that,

When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel $3.2\times 10^{-15}\ m$ before interacting.

Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. It will move with the speed of light. So,

$t=\dfrac{d}{c}\\\\t=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-15}}{3\times 10^8}\\\\t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

So, the time interval is $1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

A 21.0 kg shopping cart is moving with a velocity of 6.0 m/s. It strikes a 11.0 kg box that is initially at rest. They stick tog

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a) 126 kgm/s

b) 0 kgm/s

c) 3.9 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will use the law of conservation of momentum.

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v, where

m1 = mass of the shopping cart, 21 kg

m2 = mass of the box, 11 kg

v1 = initial velocity of the shopping cart, 6 m/s

v2 = initial velocity of the box, 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the box+cart

Momentum of the shopping cart before collision = P

P = mv

P = 21 * 6

P = 126 kgm/s = c

Momentum of the box before collision

Like in question a above, the momentum of the box is P

P = mv

P = 11 * 0

P = 0 kgm/s = b

Velocity of the combined shopping cart wreckage after collision is

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v

(21 * 6) + (11 * 0) = (21 + 11)v

126 + 0 = 32v

32v = 126

v = 126/32

v = 3.9375 m/s, on approximating to 1 decimal place, we have 3.9 m/s and option b as the answer.

How is force defined?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity (which includes to begin moving from a state of rest), i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull.
