A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at a constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcyc

le are both traveling at the same speed of 19.0 m/s, and the distance between them is 52.0 m. After t1 = 5.00 s, the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a rate of 5.00 m/s2. How long does it take from the moment when the motorcycle starts to accelerate until it catches up with the car?

Answer:

t=2.14s

Explanation:

Since it asks us for the time it takes from the moment it starts accelerating, the first 5 seconds of movement mentioned is irrelevant here.

Next it'd be simple just to use the kinematic equation involving distance, time, and velocity:

∆d=V₀t+at²/2

From here we can move the change in distance over and use the quadratic formula to solve for time.

My work is in the attachment. Comment with any questions.

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:149.73 ml

Explanation:

Given

\beta \ of\ acetone=1.50\times 10^{-4} ^{\circ}C^{-1}

change in volume is given by

\Delta V=V_{final}-V_{initial}

\Delta V=\nu_{initial}\beta _{acetone}\left [ T_f-T_i\right ]

V_{final}=\nu_{initial}+\nu_{initial}\beta _{acetone}\left [ T_f-T_i\right ]

V_{final}=150+150\times 1.50\times 10^{-4}\left [ 20-32\right ]

V_{final}=149.73 ml

Pls what is the formula for specific heat capacity in physics and pls follow ​
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

<h3>The heat capacity and the specific heat are related by C=cm or c=C/m. The mass m, specific heat c, change in temperature ΔT, and heat added (or subtracted) Q are related by the equation: Q=mcΔT. Values of specific heat are dependent on the properties and phase of a given substance.</h3>

Compute the density in g/cm^3 of a piece of metal that had mass of 0.485 kg and a volume of 52cm^3
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

9.3 g/cm³

Explanation:

First, convert kg to g:

0.485 kg × (1000 g / kg) = 485 g

Density is mass divided by volume:

D = (485 g) / (52 cm³)

D = 9.33 g/cm³

Rounding to two significant figures, the density is 9.3 g/cm³.

How do natural gas and crude oil compare as energy resources?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Crude oil and natural gas are both energy commodities. As such, we use these fuels to heat and cool our homes or supply other energy needs. The price relationship between crude oil and natural gas is an inter-commodity spread, in which the prices between the two change in relation to each other.

Historically, in an inter-commodity spread, when one becomes more expensive, the other will be more desirable for consumers because of the lower prices and higher supply.

Many companies that produce crude oil also produce natural gas. Natural gas and crude oil exploration and production are often related because the release and capture of natural gas can occur during the oil drilling process.

The relationship between crude oil and natural gas changed around the turn of the 21st century due to the discovery of more natural gas reserves in the United States.

Huge natural gas reserves, previously undiscovered in the Marcellus and Utica shale regions of the U.S., altered the price relationship between these two energy commodities, lowering the price of natural gas in the U.S. while the price of oil continued to rise between 2000 and 2014.

Attributed to slowing growth of emerging economies and a reduction in oil demand, a drastic drop in the price of crude oil occurred in late 2014, continuing through early 2016. By 2018, the price of crude oil crept back up to over $70 per barrel. However, due to the coronavirus in 2020 almost halting demand for oil, crude oil prices dropped to historic lows, while natural gas dropped a little, but held pretty steady.

How do you find period when you have frequency
nydimaria [60]

Period and frequency are mutual reciprocals.

Period = 1 / frequency .

Frequency = 1 / period

(Frequency) x (Period) = 1
