Answer:

The frictional force points up the incline.

Explanation:

It is given that, the crate is at rest on the incline.  We know that the forces acting on the crate are force of gravity, normal and the force of friction. We know that the frictional force is the force that opposes the motion of an object.

In this case the crate is at rest. The crate will have static friction, that points up the incline.

So, the correct option is (A) "the frictional force points up the incline".

A small mailbag is released from a helicopter that is descending steadily at 3 m/s.
mario62 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

c) If the helicopter was rising steadily at 3.00 m/s

       Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

       Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

<u>Explanation:</u>

a)  We have equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

   Initial velocity = 3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2 and time = 3 seconds.

   v = 3+9.8*3 = 32.4 m/s

  Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

 Velocity of helicopter = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 m/s^2.

    s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=9m

    Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

 Velocity of package = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2.

  s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 53.1m

  Distance traveled by package  = 53.1 meter.

So package is (53.1-9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

c) Initial velocity = -3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2 and time = 3 seconds.

  v = -3+9.8*3 = 26.4 m/s

  Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

 Velocity of helicopter = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 m/s^2.

    s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=-9m

    Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

 Velocity of package = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2.

  s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 35.1m

  Distance traveled by package  = 35.1 meter.

So package is (35.1+9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

If you have 240.0 mL of water at 25.00 °C and add 100.0 mL of water at 95.00 °C, what is the final temperature of the mixture? U
Rus_ich [418]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the mixture is 45.6°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

  • <u>When volume is 240.0 mL</u>

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{240.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 240.0mL)=240g

  • <u>When volume is 100.0 mL</u>

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{100.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 100.0mL)=100g

When two water solutions at different temperature are mixed, the amount of heat released by water present at higher temperature will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water present at lower temperature..

Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

m_1\times c\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c\times (T_{final}-T_2)]       ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of water solution 1 = 240 g

m_2 = mass of water solution 2 = 100 g

T_{final} = final temperature = ?°C

T_1 = initial temperature of water solution 1 = 25°C

T_2 = initial temperature of water solution 2 = 95°C

c = specific heat of water= 4.186 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

240\times 4.186\times (T_{final}-25)=-[100\times 4.186\times (T_{final}-95)]\\\\T_{final}=45.6^oC

Hence, the final temperature of the mixture is 45.6°C

What quantity is represented by a unit called newton (N) ?
bixtya [17]

Newton is the SI unit of force . Newton is the name of a British scientist and the name of unit is to honour him. The unit is actually Kg.m/s 2 The unit can be derived by the formula. Take the example of weight. It's formula is W = mg . We know that the unit of mass is kg and gravity is m/s 2 so the unit of weight becomes kg.m/s 2 This unit is known as a Newton. It is always given a capital letter because it is someone's name. Other units that are always capitalised (upper case) are Ampere (Amp), Watt, Volt, Coulomb, Kelvin, Celsius, Fahrenheit, Curie, Roentgen because they are also people's names.
