The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, F=2.5\times 10^4\ N

Acceleration of the shark, a=1.25\ m/s^2

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.

La unidad de calor es la caloría; es posible expresarla en el sistema internacional de medidas??
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Yes, the calorie can be expressed in SI units

Explanation:

1 calorie (1 cal) is defined as the amount of heat energy that must be supplied to 1 gram of water in order to raise its temperature by 1 degree Celsius (1^{\circ}C.

The calorie is not a unit of the International System (SI): the SI unit for the energy is the Joule (J).

However, it is possible to convert energy from calories to Joules, and viceversa. In fact, the conversion factor between the two units is:

1 calorie = 4.184 Joules

So, to convert from calories to Joules we simply multiply by 4.184, while if we want to convert from Joules to calories, we just divide by 4.184.

A -turn rectangular coil with length and width is in a region with its axis initially aligned to a horizontally directed uniform
madam [21]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The maximum emf is \epsilon_{max}= 26.8 V

The emf induced at t = 1.00 s is \epsilon = 24.1V

The maximum rate of change of magnetic flux is   \frac{d \o}{dt}|_{max}  =26.8V

Explanation:

    From the question we are told that

        The number of turns is N = 44 turns

          The length of the coil is  l = 15.0 cm = \frac{15}{100} = 0.15m

          The width of the coil is  w = 8.50 cm =\frac{8.50}{100} =0.085 m

          The magnetic field is  B = 745 \ mT

          The angular speed is w = 64.0 rad/s

Generally the induced emf is mathematically represented as

        \epsilon = \epsilon_{max} sin (wt)

 Where \epsilon_{max} is the maximum induced emf and this is mathematically represented as

            \epsilon_{max} = N\ B\ A\ w

Where \o is the magnetic flux

            N is the number of turns

             A is the area of the coil which is mathematically evaluated as

             A = l *w

        Substituting values

           A = 0.15 * 0.085

               = 0.01275m^2

substituting values into the equation for  maximum induced emf

         \epsilon_{max} = 44* 745 *10^{-3} * 0.01275 * 64.0

                 \epsilon_{max}= 26.8 V

 given that the time t = 1.0sec

substituting values into the equation for induced emf  \epsilon = \epsilon_{max} sin (wt)

      \epsilon = 26.8 sin (64 * 1)

        \epsilon = 24.1V

   The maximum induced emf can also be represented mathematically as

              \epsilon_{max} = \frac{d \o}{dt}|_{max}

  Where  \o is the magnetic flux and \frac{d \o}{dt}|_{max} is the maximum rate at which magnetic flux changes the value of the maximum rate of change of magnetic flux is

         \frac{d \o}{dt}|_{max}  =26.8V

A body of mass 2.7 kg makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but w
kramer

Answer:

a)

1.35 kg

b)

2.67 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

a)

m_{1} = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

m_{2} = mass of second body = ?

v_{1i} = initial velocity of the first body before collision = v

v_{2i} = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

v_{1f} = final velocity of the first body after collision =

using conservation of momentum equation

m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) v + m_{2} (0) = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} ) + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) (\frac{2v}{3} ) = m_{2} v_{2f}\\v_{2f} = \frac{1.8v}{m_{2}}

Using conservation of kinetic energy

m_{1} v_{1i}^{2}+ m_{2} v_{2i}^{2} = m_{1} v_{1f}^{2} + m_{2} v_{2f}^{2} \\(2.7) v^{2} + m_{2} (0)^{2} = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} )^{2} + m_{2} (\frac{1.8v}{m_{2}})^{2} \\(2.7) = (0.3) + \frac{3.24}{m_{2}}\\m_{2} = 1.35

b)

m_{1} = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

m_{2} = mass of second body = 1.35 kg

v_{1i} = initial velocity of the first body before collision = 4 ms⁻¹

v_{2i} = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

Speed of the center of mass of two-body system is given as

v_{cm} = \frac{(m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i})}{(m_{1} + m_{2})}\\v_{cm} = \frac{((2.7) (4) + (1.35) (0))}{(2.7 + 1.35)}\\\\v_{cm} = 2.67 ms⁻¹
