Leni [432]3 years ago
8 0

Data given:

m=17,250 kg

F=6,450,284 N

a=?

Formula needed:

F=ma

Solution:

a= F/m

a=373,9295 m/s²

"In a pure substance all the particles must be identical; therefore pure substances are composed only of elements." Do you agree
kenny6666 [7]

I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound.  It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.

'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.

These example substances are all compounds, not elements.

A 2.35-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 21.4 m. Ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 21.4 m
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg

It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.

(a) The kinetic energy is given by : E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

As the rock was at rest initially, it means, its kinetic energy is equal to 0.

(b) The gravitational potential energy is given by : E_p=mgh

It can be calculated as :

E_p=2.35\times 9.8\times 21.4\\\\E_p=492.84\ J

(c) The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy such that,

M = 0 J + 492.84 J

M = 492.84 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

How are the energy conversions of machines similar to the energy conversions in your body
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:

-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles

- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.

- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.

Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.

suppose a vacuum cleaner use 120 j of electrical energy. If 45 j are used to pull air into the vacuum cleaner, how efficient is
Mice21 [21]
It depends on how much time 45 j will go, so if you told me that it went through 45 j per minute it will go through for 2 minutes so not efficient unless it went through 45 j per hour then it is efficient.
