Answer:

Well techinacally it is because the glass is a different density than the surrounding air. So it cannot be C. I am not sure between A and B, but I would assume that it is B since glass is a solid and solids have higher densities than air.

A small remote-control car with a mass of 1.65 kg moves at a constant speed of v = 12.0 m/s in a vertical circle inside a hollow

Reil [10]

Answer:

$N=63.69N$

Explanation:

The normal force exerted on the car by the walls of the cylinder at the bottom of the vertical circle will be such that when substracted to the weight it must give the centripetal force, since at that point on the vertical $F_{cp}=N-W=N-mg$

We also know that the equation for the centripetal force is:

$F_{cp}=ma_{cp}=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

Mixing both equations we get:

$N-mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$N=mg+\frac{mv^2}{r}$

Which for our values means:

$N=(1.65Kg)(9.8m/s^2)+\frac{(1.65Kg)(12m/s)^2}{(5m)}=63.69N$

The given function represents the position of a particle traveling along a horizontal line. s(t) = 2t3 − 3t2 − 12t + 6 for t ≥ 0

avanturin [10]

Answer:

(a) $v(t) = 6t^2 - 6t - 12$ , $a(t) = 12t - 6$

(b) When $0 \leq t < 0.5$ , object is slowing down, when $t > 0.5$ object is speeding up.

Explanation:

(a) To get the velocity function, we need to take the derivative of the position function.

$v(t) = \frac{ds(t)}{dt} = (2t^{3})^{'} - (3t^{2})^{'} - (12t)^{'} + 6^{'} = 6t^{2} - 6t - 12$

To get the acceleration function, we need to take the derivative of the velocity function.

$a(t) = \frac{dv(t)}{dt} = (6t^{2})^{'} - (6t)^{'} - (12)^{'} = 12t - 6$

(b) The object is slowing down when velocity is decreasing by time (decelerating) hence a < 0

$12t - 6 < 0 \\12t < 6 \\t < 0.5$

On the other hand, object is speeding up when a > 0

$12t - 6 > 0 \\12t > 6 \\t > 0.5$

Therefore, when $0 \leq t < 0.5$ , object is slowing down, when $t > 0.5$ object is speeding up.

Which transition by an electron will release the greatest amount of energy? hurry!

Sphinxa [80]

highest energy level to the ground state.

Explanation:

The transition from the highest energy level to the ground state.

An electron has a discrete amount of energy accrued to it in any energy level it belongs to.

Electrons can transition between one energy level or the other.

When electrons change state, they either release or absorb energy.
When an atom absorbs energy, they move from their ground to final state which is consistent with the energy of the final state.
When electrons release energy, they move from excited state to their ground state.
Electrons will release the greatest amount of energy when they move from the highest energy level to the ground state.
