Answer:

Potential difference is measured in volts

Explanation:

The standard metric unit on electric potential difference is the volt, abbreviated V and named in honor of Alessandro Volta. One Volt is equivalent to one Joule per Coulomb.

How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Things float when they are positively buoyant, or less dense than the fluid in which they are sitting. This does not mean that an object has to be lighter than the fluid, as in the case of a boat; objects just need to have a greater ratio of empty space to mass than the fluid.

A train pulls away from a station with a constant acceleration of 0.42 m/s2. A passenger arrives at a point next to the track 6.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

2.69 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

First lets find the position of the train as a function of time as seen by the passenger when he arrives to the train station. For this state, the train is at a position x0 given by:

x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)*(6.4s)^2 = 8.6016 m

So, the position as a function of time is:

xT(t)=(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m

Now, if the passanger is moving at a constant velocity of V, his position as a fucntion of time is given by:

xP(t)=V*t

In order for the passenger to catch the train

xP(t)=xT(t)

(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m = V*t

To solve this equation for t we make use of the quadratic formula, which has real solutions whenever its determinat is grater than zero:

0≤ b^2-4*a*c = V^2 - 4 * ((1/2)(0.42m/s^2)) * 8.6016 m =V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2

This equation give us the minimum velocity the passenger must have in order to catch the train:

V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2 = 0

V^2 = 7.22534(m/s)^2

V = 2.6879 m/s

Which is likely to be more common in our Galaxy: white dwarfs or black holes? Why?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

White dwarfs are likely to be much more common. The number of stars decreases with increasing mass, and only the most massive stars are likely to complete their lives as black holes. There are many more stars of the masses appropriate for evolution to a white dwarf.

Calculate the normal force pushing up from the table in each example 8 kg

garik1379 [7]

The correct answer to the question is: 78.4 N.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mass of the object is given as m = 8 Kg.

We are asked to calculate the normal force of the object.

The object is resting on the table.

Hence, the object pushes the table downward with a force equal to it's weight.

The table, in turn, pushes the object with the same force as given by the object, but in the upward direction.

The force given by the table on the object is known as the normal reaction of the object which acts perpendicular to the surface of the object.

Hence, the normal reaction is equal to the weight of the body.

The weight of a body is the product of it's mass with acceleration due to gravity.

So, the weight of 8 Kg object is calculated as -

Weight = mg

= 8 × 9.8 N.

= 78.4 N.

Here, g is known as acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, the normal force pushing up from the table is 78.4 N.
