Answer:

A <u>object </u>is in motion when its distance from another object it changing.

a <u>reference </u>point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.  You can assume that the refrence point is stuck or not moving.

Answer:

An object is in motion when its distance from another object is changing. ... A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>

Electromagnetic waves differ from other types of waves because they are (2 points)
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

b. able to travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

The most distinguishing factor of an electromagnetic waves is that they are able to travel through a vacuum.

These waves do not require materials in a medium for propagation.

  • Electromagnetic waves are formed by the propagation of the electric and magnetic fields.
  • They vibrate at an angle of 90° .
  • They are unlike like mechanical waves that requires that requires materials in medium for their propagation.

What is the momentum of a 8850 kg medium truck that is traveling with a velocity of 55 m/s west on the highway
fgiga [73]

Answer:

486,750 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is mass*velocity

M = m*v

M = 8850kg*55m/s

M = 486,750 kg*m/s

Sometimes, even with a wrench, one cannot loosen a nut that is frozen tightly to a bolt. It is often possible to loosen the nut
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance from the application of force.

It is a vector quantity.

Torque = force x perpendicular distance

To loosen a nut, if we increase the amount of distance, the torque is increased by applying a little amount of force and hence it is easy to open the nut.

Thus, it is easy to open a nut by slipping one end of a long pipe over the wrench handle and pushing at the other end of the pipe so that the torque is more and the nut is loosen.

A small sphere of
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

θ = 39.7º

Explanation:

In this exercise we must use Newton's second law for the sphere, at the equilibrium point we write the equations in each exercise; we will assume that plate 1 is on the left

Y Axis

       T_{y} -W = 0

       T_{y} = W

X axis

         -F_{e1}<u> - F_{e2} + Tₓ = 0 </u>

<u> </u>

let's use trigonometry to find the components of the tension, we measure the angle with respect to the vertical

         sin θ = Tₓ / T

         cos θ = T_{y} / t

         Tₓ = T sin θ

         T_{y} = T cos θ

let's use gauss's law to find the electric field of each leaf; We define a Gaussian surface formed by a cylinder, so the component of the field perpendicular to the base of the cylinder is the one with electric flow.

         F = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} / ε₀

  in this case the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product, the flow is towards both sides of the plate

        F = 2E A = q_{int} / ε₀

let's use the concept of surface charge density

        σ = q_{int} / A

we substitute

        2E A = σ A /ε₀

          E = σ / 2ε₀

this is the field created by each plate. The electric force is

        F_{e} = q E

for plate 1 with σ₁ = -30 10⁻⁶ C / m²

         F_{e1}  = q σ₁ /2ε₀

for plate 2 with s2 = ab 10⁻⁶ C / m², for the calculations a value of this charge density is needed, suppose s2 = 10 10⁻⁶ C / m²

          F_{e2} = q σ₂ /2ε₀

we substitute and write the system of equations

           T cos θ = mg

          - q σ₁ / 2ε₀  - q σ₂ /2ε₀  + T sinθ = 0

we introduce t in the second equations

          - q /2 ε₀  (σ₁ + σ₂) + (mg / cos θ) sin θ = 0

          mg tan θ = q /2ε₀   (σ₁ + σ₂)

          θ = tan -1 (q / 2ε₀ mg (σ₁ + σ₂)

data indicates the mass of 0.25 g = 0.25 10⁻³ kg

give the charge density on plate 2, suppose ab = 10 10⁻⁶ C / m²

let's calculate

         θ = tan⁻¹ (9.0 10⁻¹⁰ (30 + 10) 10⁻⁶ / (2  8.85 10⁻¹² 0.25 10⁻³ 9.8))

         θ = tan⁻¹ 8.3 10⁻¹)

         θ = 39.7º
