Answer:

a) It will be easier to apply all her force as far as possible from the axle

b) There is a net torque applied

Explanation:

a) Applying a larger force far away from the axle of the door produces a larger force on the torque than pushing it near the axle. This is because Increasing the lever arm between the axle and the point at which you push the door increases the torque on the door

b)The door is turning faster and faster because you are exerting a torque on it and its undergoing angular acceleration. There is a net torque which is the addition of the torque applied on the opposite sides of the door

A circular curve of radius 150 m is banked at an angle of 15 degrees. A 750-kg car negotiates the curve at 85.0 km/h without ski

Crazy boy [7]

Answer: a) 7.1 * 10^3 N; b) -880 N directed out of the curve.

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Newton laws, then we have the following:

Pcos 15°-N=0

Psin15°-f= m*ac

from the first we obtain N, the normal force

N=750Kg*9.8* cos (15°)= 7.1 *10^3 N

Then to calculate the frictional force (f) we can use the second equation

f=P sin (15°) -m*ac where ac is the centripetal acceletarion which is equal to v^2/r

f= 750 *9.8 sin(15°)-750*(85*1000/3600)^2/150= -880 N

When does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy? uring freezing during deposition during sublimation during condensation?

ololo11 [35]

The answer for the given question above would be the third option. Carbon dioxide absorbs the most heat energy during SUBLIMATION. By definition, sublimation is <span>the transition of a substance from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Hope this answers your question.</span>

The brain mass of a human fetus during a particular trimester can be accurately estimated from the circumference of the head by

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a. If c = 20 cm, then the mass of the brain is m = 5 g.

b. At c = 20 cm, the brain's mass is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

Explanation:

From the equation

$m\left(c\right) = \frac{c^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}$

we have

a. for c = 20 cm

$m\left(20\right)=\frac{20^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{20}=5,$

then the mass is m(20) = 5 g.

b. In order to find the rate of change, first we derivate

$\frac{dm}{dc}=\frac{3c^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{c^2}.$

Evaluated at c = 20 cm, we have

$\frac{dm}{dc}|_{c=20}=\frac{3\times 20^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{20^2}=15.75.$

So, at c = 20 cm, the mass of the brain is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

When the magnetic flux through a coil of wire changes, what is generated between the ends of the coil? Which equation predicts t

True [87]

Answer:

induced electromotive force (Voltage) E = - N dΦ / dt

Explanation:

When the magnetic flux this coil induces a current in each turn of the coil, which is why an induced electromotive force (Voltage) appears at the ends of the coil.

This phenomenon is fully explained by Faraday's law

E = - dΦ / dt

where in the case of a coil with N turns of has

E = - N dΦ / dt

Rl flux is the product of the normal to the area by the magnetic field, in this case the flux changes so we can assume that the area of the coil is constant
