Answer:

Electromagnetic force

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravity: it is the force that is exerted between any objects with mass. It is the weakest of all forces, so it is only relevant at planetary scales. It is always attractive, and it has an infinite range.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between charged objects and between magnets (it is responsible for electric fields and magnetic fields). It is the 2nd strongest force, and it is the force that holds atoms in a molecule together. It can be attractive or repulsive, and it has an infinite range.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the strongest of all forces. It is responsible for holding the nucleons together inside the nucleus, and it is attractive. It has a very limited range ( $10^{-15}m$ ), so it is relevant only at very small scales

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for radioactive decays and neutrino interactions. It also has a very short range ( $10^{-18} m$

Looking at all these definitions, we see that the term that defines the force that acts between charged particles is the electromagnetic force.

A spring with spring constant 15.5 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is suspended from the spring and allowed to come to rest.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

A) 138.8g

B)73.97 cm/s

Explanation:

K = 15.5 Kn/m

A = 7 cm

N = 37 oscillations

tn = 20 seconds

A) In harmonic motion, we know that;

ω² = k/m and m = k/ω²

Also, angular frequency (ω) = 2π/T

Now, T is the time it takes to complete one oscillation.

So from the question, we can calculate T as;

T = 22/37.

Thus ;

ω = 2π/(22/37) = 10.5672

So,mass of ball (m) = k/ω² = 15.5/10.5672² = 0.1388kg or 138.8g

B) In simple harmonic motion, velocity is given as;

v(t) = vmax Sin (ωt + Φ)

It is from the derivative of;

v(t) = -Aω Sin (ωt + Φ)

So comparing the two equations of v(t), we can see that ;

vmax = Aω

Vmax = 7 x 10.5672 = 73.97 cm/s

A car has a mass of 1,200 kg. What is its acceleration when the engine exerts a force of 600 N? (Formula: F=ma)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 1200 kg

Force exerted by the engine, F = 600 N

Noe force,F = ma

a is the acceleration of the engine

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{600\ N}{1200\ kg}\\\\a=0.5\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is 0.5 m/s².

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle. This could be caused by a:

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of high manifold vacuum. (option D)

Explanation:

Electronic fuel injection (EFI) system replaced carburetors back in the mid-1980s as the preferred method of supplying air and fuel to engines. The basic difference is that a carburetor uses intake vacuum and a pressure drop in the venturi, to siphon fuel from the carburetor fuel bowl into the engine. Whereas fuel injection system uses pressure to spray fuel directly into the engine.

However, under light load or at idle, a relatively high vacuum exists in the intake manifold. This means less fuel pressure is needed to spray a given volume of fuel through the injector. Under heavy load, engine vacuum drops to near zero.

Therefore, An engine with an electronic fuel injection system has high fuel pressure at idle because of high manifold vacuum.
