A fireman is sliding down a fire pole. as he speeds up, he tightens his grip on the pole, thus increasing the vertical frictiona

l force that the pole exerts on the fireman. when the force on his hands equals his weight, what happens to the fireman?

According to Newton's first law, when the net force on the body is zero, the result will be that the body will have constant velocity. So when the force of friction on fireman's hands and the weight are equal, the fireman will slide down the pole with a constant velocity.

The fireman will continue to desend, at a constant speed.

The internal energy of nmoles of an ideal gas depends on a. one state variable T.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Correct option a. one state variable T.

Explanation:

In the case of an ideal gas it is shown that internal energy depends exclusively on temperature, since in an ideal gas any interaction between the molecules or atoms that constitute it is neglected, so that internal energy is only kinetic energy, which depends Only of the temperature. This fact is known as Joule's law.

The internal energy variation of an ideal gas (monoatomic or diatomic) between two states A and B is calculated by the expression:

ΔUAB = n × Cv × (TB - TA)

Where n is the number of moles and Cv the molar heat capacity at constant volume. Temperatures must be expressed in Kelvin.

An ideal gas will suffer the same variation in internal energy (ΔUAB) as long as its initial temperature is TA and its final temperature TB, according to Joule's Law, whatever the type of process performed.

The linear momentum of a car of mass 1000 kg moving with a speed of 10 m/s is-----kg.m/s. HELP ME
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The kilogram-meter per second (kg · m/s or kg · m · s -1 ) is the standard unit of momentum . Reduced to base units in the International System of Units ( SI ), a kilogram-meter per second is the equivalent of a newton-second (N · s), which is the SI unit of impulse .

How does metamorphic rock change into another type of metamorphic rock?
Marrrta [24]
Metamorphic rocks are formed by tremendous heat, great pressure, and chemical reactions. To change it into another type of metamorphic rock you have to reheat it and bury it deeper again beneath the Earth's surface.

Hope this helped! :)
