a level and Linda lives 4,000 feet above sea level. What conclusion can you draw about their climates based on this information?
A.Since they are close in distance, they always experience the exact same climate.
B.Jack’s altitude suggests that he experiences lower air pressure than Linda.
C.Linda likely experiences colder climates due to her higher elevation.
D.Linda will experience more rain and Jack will experience more snow.

The answer is C since the higher up you go the colder it gets which is why Linda will experience colder climates.

Answer: C. Linda likely experiences colder climates due to her higher elevation.

Explanation:

Climate varies with distance and altitude. Higher altitude has low air pressure  and colder climate and snowfall where as place close to sea level experience more rain, hotter climate and higher air pressure.

Jack lives near sea level and Linda lives 4000 feet above sea level.

Hence, correct answer is C. Linda likely experiences colder climates due to her higher elevation.

A horizontal force of 100 N is applied to move a 50-kg cart (initially at rest) across a 10 m level surface. What is the final k
OlgaM077 [116]

The net force on the cart is 100 N in the direction of its motion, so by Newton's second law we can find the acceleration <em>a</em> applied to it:

100 N = (50 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (100 N) / (50 kg)

<em>a</em> = 2 m/s²

The cart starts at rest and travels a distance of 10 m, so that its final velocity <em>v</em> satisfies

<em>v</em> ² - 0² = 2 (2 m/s²) (10 m)

<em>v</em> ²= 40 m²/s²

and so the cart ends up with kinetic energy

KE = 1/2 <em>m</em> <em>v</em> ² = 1/2 (50 kg) (40 m²/s²) = 1000 J

If it requires 7.0 J of work to stretch a particular spring by 1.8 cm from its equilibrium length, how much more work will be re
belka [17]

Answer:

56 J

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Energy 1 (E₁) = 7 J

Extention 1 (e₁) = 1.8 cm

Extention 2 (e₂) = 1.8 + 3.6 = 5.4 cm

Energy 2 (E₂) =?

Energy stored in a spring is given by the following equation:

E = ke²

Where E is the energy.

K is the spring constant.

e is the extension.

E = ke²

Divide both side by e²

K = E/e²

Thus,

E₁/e₁² = E₂/e₂²

7/ 1.8² = E₂/ 5.4²

7 / 3.24 = E₂/ 29.16

Cross multiply

3.24 × E₂ = 7 × 29.16

3.24 × E₂ = 204.12

Divide both side by 3.24

E₂ = 204.12 / 3.24

E₂ = 63 J

Thus, the additional energy required can be obtained as follow:

Energy 1 (E₁) = 7 J

Energy 2 (E₂) = 63 J

Additional energy = 63 – 7

Additional energy = 56 J

A 1.10 μF capacitor is connected in series with a 1.92 μF capacitor. The 1.10 μF capacitor carries a charge of +10.1 μC on one p
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

(a). The potential on the negative plate is 42.32 V.

(b). The equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors is 0.69 μF.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 10.1 μC

Capacitor C₁ = 1.10 μF

Capacitor C₂ = 1.92 μF

Capacitor C₃ = 1.10 μF

Potential V₁ = 51.5 V

Let V₁ and V₂ be the potentials on the two plates of the capacitor.

(a). We need to calculate the potential on the negative plate of the 1.10 μF capacitor

Using formula of potential difference

V_{1}=\dfrac{Q}{C_{1}}

Put the value into the formula

V_{1}=\dfrac{10.1 \times10^{-6}}{1.10\times10^{-6}}

V_{1}=9.18\ V

The potential on the second plate

V_{2}=V-V_{1}

V_{2}=51.5 -9.18

V_{2}=42.32\ v

(b). We need to calculate the equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors

Using formula of equivalent capacitance

C=\dfrac{C_{1}\timesC_{2}}{C_{1}+C_{2}}

Put the value into the formula

C=\dfrac{1.10\times10^{-6}\times1.92\times10^{-6}}{(1.10+1.92)\times10^{-6}}

C=6.99\times10^{-7}\ F

C=0.69\ \mu F

Hence, (a). The potential on the negative plate is 42.32 V.

(b). The equivalent capacitance of the two capacitors is 0.69 μF.
