Answer:

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy from one place to another by the movement of gas or liquid particles. How does this happen? As a gas or liquid is heated, the substance expands. This is because the particles in liquids and gases gain kinetic energy when they are heated and start to move faster.

A soccer ball is released from rest at the top of a grassy incline. After 8.6 seconds, the ball travels 87 meters and 1.0 s afte
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

a) a = 2.35 m/s^2

Explanation:

(a) In order to calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the ball, you use the following formula, for the position of the ball:

x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2     (1)

x: position of the ball after t seconds = 87 m

t: time  = 8.6 s

a: acceleration of the ball = ?

vo: initial velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

You solve the equation (1) for a:

x=0+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\a=\frac{2x}{t^2}

You replace the values of the parameters in the previous equation:

a=\frac{2(87m)}{(8.6s)^2}=2.35\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration of the ball is 2.35 m/s^2

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)

2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.

3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.

4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.

5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).

Part b suppose the magnitude of the gravitational force between two spherical objects is 2000 n when they are 100 km apart. what
kobusy [5.1K]
<span>b) The force with a distance of 150 km is 889 N c) The force with a distance of 50 km is 8000 N This question looks like a mixture of a question and a critique of a previous answer. I'll attempt to address the original question. Since the radius of the spherical objects isn't mentioned anywhere, I will assume that the distance from the center of each spherical object is what's being given. The gravitational force between two masses is given as F = (G M1 M2)/r^2 where F = Force G = gravitational constant M1 = Mass 1 M2 = Mass 2 r = distance between center of masses for the two masses. So with a r value of 100 km, we have a force of 2000 Newtons. If we change the distance to 150 km, that increases the distance by a factor of 1.5 and since the force varies with the inverse square, we get the original force divided by 2.25. And 2000 / 2.25 = 888.88888.... when rounded to 3 digits gives us 889. Looking at what looks like an answer of 890 in the question is explainable as someone rounding incorrectly to 2 significant digits. If the distance is changed to 50 km from the original 100 km, then you have half the distance (50/100 = 0.5) and the squaring will give you a new divisor of 0.25, and 2000 / 0.25 = 8000. So the force increases to 8000 Newtons.</span>

A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k
Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

I_1=m_1r^2

I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}

l = r

I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}

I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2

For 6 spokes, I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

I=I_1+I_2

I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is 0.587\ kgm^2. Hence, this is the required solution.
