The electric motor of a model train accelerates the train from rest to 0.620 m/s in 21ms. The total mass of the train is 825 g.

find the average power delivered to the train during its acceleration.

Explanation:

Average power = change in energy / change in time

P = ΔE / Δt

P = (½ mv²) / t

P = (½ (0.825 kg) (0.620 m/s)²) / (0.021 s)

P = 7.55 Watts

Three different people weight a standard mass of 2.00 g on the same balance. Each person obtains a reading of 2.32 g for the mas

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: precise

Explanation:

Three different people weight a standard mass of 2.00 g on the same balance. Each person obtains a reading of 2.32 g for the mass of the standard. These results imply that the balance that was used is precise.

Precision can be defined as the closeness of measured values to each other, for a measuring equipment it is the closeness of the values of readings obtained at different times to each other. It does not necessarily means the measurements are accurate(closeness to the actual value). Therefore, in the case above where three different people measured the same mass on the same balance, and each of them obtained the same value which is different from the standard value. We can say the balance used is precise because the three readings are the same.

Difference between sold and liquid

Tcecarenko [31]

Explanation:

Solids have closely packed particles and vibrate about a fixed position, they also have a fixed volume.

liquid have close particles but which are able to move with a bit of kinetic energy, for this reason they have no fixed volume but take the volume of the container or vessel

An object has 100 J of kinetic energy and a mass of 2 g. How fast was it traveling?

iragen [17]

K.E = 1/2 mv²

100 = 1/2 (2 )(v)²

100 = both 2 cancel (v)²

Taking Square root on b/s

√100 = √v²

10 = v

When blueshift occurs,the preceived frequency of the wave would be?

LiRa [457]

Answer:

When blueshift happens, the perceived frequency of the wave would be higher than the actual frequency.

Explanation:

As the name suggests, when blueshift happens to electromagnetic waves, the frequency of the observed wave would shift towards the blue (high-frequency) end of the visible spectrum. Hence, there would be an increase to the apparent frequency of the wave.

Blueshifts happens when the source of the wave and the observer are moving closer towards one another.

Assume that the wave is of frequency $f\; {\rm Hz}$ at the source. In other words, the source of the wave sends out a peak after every $(1/f)\; {\text{seconds}}$ .

Assume that the distance between the observer and the source of the wave is fixed. It would then take a fixed amount of time for each peak from the source to reach the observer.

The source of this wave sends out a peak after each period of $(1/f)\; {\text{seconds}}$ . It would appear to the observer that consecutive peaks arrive every $(1/f)\; {\text{seconds}}\!$ . That would correspond to a frequency of $f\; {\rm Hz}$ .

On the other hand, for a blueshift to be observed, the source of the wave needs to move towards the observer. Assume that the two are moving towards one another at a constant speed of $v \; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Again, the source of this wave would send out a peak after each period of $(1/f)\; {\text{seconds}}$ . However, by the time the source sends out the second peak, the source would have been $v \cdot (1 / f) \; { \rm m}= (v / f)\; {\rm m}$ closer to the observer then when the source sent out the first peak.

When compared to the first peak, the second peak would need to travel a slightly shorter distance before it reach the observer. Hence, from the perspective of the observer, the time difference between the first and the second peak would be shorter than $(1/f)\; {\text{seconds}}$ . The observed frequency of this wave would be larger than the original $f\; {\rm Hz}$ .

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily

den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.
