Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A rod made up of a single element that is used to heat water is made of nichrome ( Nichrome is an alloy of nickel and chromium, which has majority of  nickel in it about 80% and 20% is chromium). Since, the majority is of nickel, nickel is a transition element belonging to D- Block in the periodic table and is found in 10th group. Nickel is ferromagnetic element. It is also used widely in stainless steel.

What happens to the sound waves when the source of the sound is moving toward you
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The perceived frequency is higher than the actual emitted sound frequency. that means that the received sound waves are of shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

When the source of a sound wave is moving toward the observer, the perceived frequency of the wave changes in relation to the observer producing a change in pitch. The effect is called Doppler effect in honor of the physicist who formulated the physical explanation.

In the case of the sound source approaching the observer, the perceived frequency is higher than that actually emitted by the sound source.

A bullet is accelerated down the barrel of a gun by hot gases produced in the combustion of gun powder. What is the average forc
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:4.259 kN

Explanation:

Given

mass of bullet m=0.02 kg

final velocity of bullet v=575 m/s

time taken =2.7 ms\approx 2.7\times 10^{-3} s

We know

Impulse=F_{avg}\cdot t=change\ in\ momentum

thus

Initial Momentum(P_i)=m\times 0

Final Momentum(P_f)=m\times v=0.02\times 575

P_f=11.5 kg-m/s

F_{avg}\times 2.7\times 10^{-3}=P_f-P_i=11.5

F_{avg}=4.259\times 10^3

F_{avg}=4.259 kN

What is the weight, in pounds, of a 185-kg object on jupiter? express the weight numerically in pounds?
strojnjashka [21]

Befroe showing a numercial answer, It is necessary to clarify that pounds is not a unit of weight. Pounds is a unit of mass.


Mass is a property of matter which indicates the amount of matter (atoms of certain kind) that the object has. The mass of an object does not change whenever the object changes of environment. It is the same in water, on the air, on Jupiter, the Earth, Venus, the Moon. Any where.


On the other hand, weight is the product of mass times the acceleration of gravity. Therefore, weight is different from mass and it changes depending on the place.


To find the mass in pounds of a 185 kg object, you have to make a conversion of units.


The conversion factor is 1 kg = 2.2046 pounds ⇒ 1 = 2.2046 pounds / kg.


Therefore, 185 kg = 185 kg × 2.2046 pounds / kg = 407.851 pounds = 407.851 lb ← this is the mass in pounds.


To find the weight you had to search for the gravitational acceleration in Jupiter and calcuate it with the formula weight = mass × acceleration of gravity.


You find the value for acceleration of gravity in Jupiter  in internet as 24.79 m/s².


Weight = 185 kg × 24.79 /s² = 4,586 kg × m/ s² = 4,586 N.


There is a force unit in disuse called kiloponds. One kilopond equals 9.8 N. Hence, you can convert the weight 4,586 N to kiloponds in this way:


4,586 N × 1 kilopond / 9.8 N ≈ 468 kiloponds or 468,000 ponds ← weight

how does the size of objects impact the pull of gravity between Earth and a baseball thrown into the air
Reil [10]
it's how much it weighs and how much force is pushing on it like a egg if i drop it the weigh can cause it to break and how much force the gravity is pushing on it.
