B) continue to move in the same way forever, no matter what happens. C) continue to move in the same way until acted upon by a force. D) eventually slow down, turn around and come back to Earth.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, which states that a body will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force to change its state of rest or uniform motion. So, the Voyagers spacecraft will continue to move in the same way at the constant speed of 50,000 mph unless acted upon by a force.

Answer:

Option C is correct

Continue to move in the same way until acted upon by a force.

Explanation:

The newton's 1st law of motion states that:

<em>"If an object is at rest then it will stay at rest or if an object is in motion then it remains in motion at the same speed as before unless acted upon by some unbalanced force"</em>

The Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are still moving at a constant speed of 50,000 mph and they will keep on moving at this rate unless some unbalanced force acts on them.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Density of liquid = 4730 kg/m³

Atmospheric pressure on planet X = 8401.7 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure, P = ρgh where ρ = density of liquid, g =9.8 m/s² and h = height of column at earth's surface = 2185 mm. Since P = atmospheric pressure, for mercury, P = ρ₁gh₁ where ρ₁ = 13.6 g/cm³ and h₁ = 760 mm

So, ρgh = ρ₁gh₁

ρ = ρ₁h₁/h = 13.6 g/cm³ × 760/2185 = 4.73 g/cm³ = 4730 kg/m³

The atmospheric pressure on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃     g₁ = g/4 and h₃ = 725 mm = 0.725 m

on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃ = (4730 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 0.725 m)/4 = 8401.7 N/m²

0.A 20-g bullet moving at 1 000 m/s is fired through a one-kg block of wood emerging at a speed of 100 m/s. What is the kinetic
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

KE = 0.162 KJ

Explanation:

given,

mass of bullet (m)= 20 g = 0.02 Kg

speed of the bullet (u)= 1000 m/s

mass of block(M) = 1 Kg

velocity of bullet after collision (v)= 100 m/s

kinetic energy = ?

using conservation of momentum

m u = m v + M V

0.02 x 1000 = 0.02 x 100 + 1 x V

20 = 2 + V

V = 18 m/s

now,

Kinetic energy of the block

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1 \times 18^2

KE = 162 J

KE = 0.162 KJ

If the time for 20 vibrations is 100 second then find
Lilit [14]

hey guy

the vibration per second is frequency

then for 20 vibration time taken is 100 second

in 1 second 20/100 vibration took place

it means 0.2 is frequency

for time period , we have

t=1/f

=1/0.2

=5

The sound from a loud speaker has an intensity level of 80 db at a distance of 2.0m. Consider the speaker to be a point source,
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

2.83m

Explanation:

The information that we have is

Intensity at 2.0 m: I=80dB and r_{1}=2m

we need an intensity level of: I_{2}=40dB

thus, we are looking for the distance r_{2}.

which we can find with the law for intensity and distance:

(\frac{r_{2}}{r_{1}} )^2=\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}

we solve for r_{2}:

\frac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} }\\\\r_{2}=r_{1}\sqrt{\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} }

and we substitute the known values:

r_{2}=(2m)\sqrt{\frac{80dB}{40dB} }\\\\r_{2}=(2m)\sqrt{2}\\ r_{2}=2.83m

at a distance of 2.83m the intensity level is 40dB

Define the terms ‘latent heat of vaporization’ and ‘phase change’ in your own words. What is the commonly accepted value of the
olganol [36]

Answer:

Latent Heat of Vaporization of Nitrogen is 2.7928 KJmol^{-1}

Explanation:

• We have learned that adding thermal energy by heat increases the temperature of a substance.

• But surprisingly, there are situations where adding energy does not change the temperature of a substance at all. Instead, the additional thermal energy acts to loosen bonds between molecules or atoms and causes a phase change.

• Because this energy enters or leaves a system during a phase change without causing a temperature change in the system, it is known as latent heat (latent means hidden).

• Latent heat of vaporization is a physical property of a substance.

• It is defined as the heat required to change one mole of liquid at its boiling point under standard atmospheric pressure. It is expressed as kg/mol or kJ/kg.

• When a material in liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor; the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of vaporization.

• Latent Heat of Vaporization of Nitrogen is 2.7928 KJmol^{-1}
