It is so easy because water is slippery, right? that makes your hands clean. Also, it might because your soles of your shoes are not strong

Older railroad tracks in the U.S. are made of 12 m-long pieces of steel. When the tracks are laid, gaps are left between the sec
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

0.005 m

Explanation:

length of steel (L°) = 12 m

initial temperature (T) = 16 degrees

expected temperature (T') = 50 degrees

We can find how large the gaps should be if the track is not to buckle when the temperature is as high as 50 degrees from the formula below

ΔL = ∝L°ΔT where

  • ΔL = expansion / gap
  • ∝ = linear expansion coefficient of steel = 12x10^{-6} C^{-1}
  • L° = initial length
  • ΔT = change in temperature

ΔL = 12x10^{-6} x 12 x (50-16) = 0.005 m

A ball is thrown straight up from ground level. It passes a 2-m-high window. The bottom of the window is 7.5 m off the ground. T
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

u=14.48m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of window h=2m

Height of window off the ground h_g=7.5m

Time to fall and drop t=1.3s

 

Generally the Newton's equation motion  is mathematically given by

 s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Where

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

2=u1.3-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*1.3^2

2=u1.3-8.281

u=7.91m/s^2  

Generally the Newton's equation motion  is mathematically given by

2as=v^2-u^2

Where

-2gh_g=v^2-u^2

-2*9.8*7.5=(7.91)^2-u^2

-147=62.5681-u^2

u=\sqrt{209.5681}

u=14.48m/s

Therefore the  ball’s initial speed

u=14.48m/s

To accelerate a 34.01 kg-car at 0.55 m/s², a force of 19 N will be required, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

<h3>What does Newton's Second Law of Motion state?</h3>

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that acceleration (a) happens when a force (F) acts on a mass (m).

We want a car of mass 34.01 kg to have an acceleration of 0.55 m/s². We can calculate the required force using Newton's Second Law of Motion.

F = m × a = 34.01 kg × 0.55 m/s² = 19 N

To accelerate a 34.01 kg-car at 0.55 m/s², a force of 19 N will be required, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion.

A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista
ella [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.
