Hot air rises<span> because when you </span>heat air<span> (or any other gas for that matter), it expands. When the </span>air<span> expands, it becomes less dense than the </span>air<span>around it. The less dense </span>hot air<span> then floats in the more dense cold </span>air<span> much like wood floats on water because wood is less dense than water.</span>

What is a net force on an object that has a mass of 20.0 kg, an applied force of 100 n moving on a surface with a friction coeff
sergiy2304 [10]

The net force on the object as described is; 58.84N

Two forces acting on the object are;

  • The <em>applied force and the frictional force.</em>

In essence; the frictional force can be evaluated as;

  • Frictional force; = coefficient × Weight of object.

  • Frictional force = 0.21 × 20 × 9.8.

  • Frictional force = 41.16N

  • The Net force = Applied force - frictional force

  • Net force = 100 - 41.16N

Net Force = 58.84 N.

Please help!!!
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

question: Please help!!!

If a bottle is being squeezed with a force of 10 Newtons and the area of the bottle is 15

squared inches. What is the pressure??

Answer:

1025.64 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure: This can be defined as the ratio of force to area. The si unit of pressure is N/m².

From the question,

P = F/A........................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, A = Area.

Given: F = 10 Newtons, A = 15 Squared Inches = (15×0.00065) = 0.00975 m²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 10/0.00975

P = 1025.64 N/m²

Hence the pressure of the bottle is 1025.64 N/m²

A cube has a drag coefficient of 0.8. What would be the terminal velocity of a sugar cube 1 cm on a side in air ( = 1.2 kg/mº)?
anzhelika [568]

0.495 m/s

Explanation

the formula for the terminal velocity is given by:

\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ \text{where} \\  \end{gathered}

m is the mass

g is 9.81 m/s²

ρ is density

A is area

C is the drag coefficient

then

Step 1

Let's find the mass

\begin{gathered} \sigma=\frac{m}{v} \\ m=\sigma\cdot v \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(0.01m)^3 \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(1\cdot10^{-6}) \\ \text{mass}=2\cdot10^{-3}\operatorname{kg} \\ \text{mass}=0.002\text{ kg } \\ \text{Area}=(0.01\text{ m}\cdot0.01m)=0.0001m^2 \end{gathered}

now, replace

\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2(0.002kg)(9.81\text{ }\frac{m}{s^2})}{(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})(0.0001m^2)0.8}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.03924\frac{\operatorname{kg}m}{s^2}}{0.16\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^{}}}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{0.2452\frac{m^2}{s^2}} \\ v=0.495\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

hence, the answer is 0.495 m/s
