How does an ice cube melt when you hold it in your hand?

The heat from your hand causes the ice molecules to heat up and become more active. This lowers the stability of the ice cube compound causing it to melt.

A child on a skateboard experiences a 75 N force with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The mass of the child + skateboard is 50 kg

Explanation:

In this problem, we can apply Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on a system

m is the mass of the system

a is the acceleration of the system

In this problem, our system is the child + the skateboard. The net force on them is

F = 75 N

and their acceleration is

a=1.5 m/s^2

So we can re-arrange the equation above to find their combined mass:

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{75}{1.5}=50 kg

If one light bulb burns out in a string of lights, and the rest stay lit, it is reasonable to assume that the lights are wired i
Blizzard [7]
The lights are wired in PARALLEL.

In fact, when the lights are connected in parallel, they are connected on separate branches to the source of voltage, so if one light bulb burns out, the other lights continue to work because the current continues to flow in the other branches of the circuit.

Vice-versa, if the light bulbs are connected in series, they are on the same branch This means that if one of them burns out, the circuit is open in that point, so the current cannot flow anymore and the other light bulbs turn off as well.

The latitude of the city of Arlington is about 32.7357°. Calculate the following: (a) The angular speed of the Earth. (b) The li
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The earth rotates by 2π radian in 24 x 60 x 60 s

so angular speed ( w )  = 2π / (24 x 60 x 60)  = 7.268 x  10⁻⁵ rad / s

b ) Linear speed of city of Arlington ( v )  = w r = w R Cosλ where R is radius of the earth and λ is latitude .

v = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ x  6.371 x 10⁶ cos 32.7357

389.5 m /s

acceleration = w² r = w² R Cos 32.7357

= (7.268 x 10⁻⁵ )² x 6.371 x 10⁶ x cos 32.7357

=283.08 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

c) velocity ratio =

w r /w R =

R cos 32.73/ R  

= Cos 32.73

= 0.84 .
