Answer:

4°C

Explanation:

Water is densest at 4°C.  Since dense water sinks, the bottom of the lake will be 4°C.

3. solve the following with regard to significant figures<br> a) 5.8 + 0.125<br> II) 3.9x105-2.5x104
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

a)5.925

ii)149.5 or383.5

Explanation:

ii)3.9×105-2.5×104

409.5-260

the zero in 260 may or may not be significant since it is after two significant figures thus we have two options

A jogger takes five minutes to run a distance of three kilometres. His speed, in metres per second, is approximately A) 5.5 M/S
just olya [345]

Answer:

His speed, in metres per second, is approximately 10m/s. The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate in which an object cover a distance in a given time. It is measured in meters per second ( m/s). From the question, the jogger covered a distance of 3Km which when converted to meter is 3000meters in a given time 5 minutes which is 300seconds. The calculation of his speed in meter per second is shown below:

Distance= 3Km to meters ( as 1000meters = 1Km). Therefore 3× 1000 = 3000m

Time= 5 minutes to seconds ( as 1 minute = 60 Seconds). Therefore 5× 60= 300.

Speed= distance/ time

= 3000/300

= 10m/s

Therefore his speed, in metres per second, is approximately 10.

A guitar string is 90 cm long and has a mass of 3.7 g . The distance from the bridge to the support post is L=62cm, and the stri
zvonat [6]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of frequency in a string from the nodes, the tension, the linear density and the length of the string, that is,

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

Here

n = Number of node

T = Tension

\mu = Linear density

L = Length

Replacing the values in the frequency and value of n is one for fundamental overtone

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{1}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 281.2Hz}

Similarly plug in 2 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{2}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 562.4Hz}

Similarly plug in 3 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{3}{2(62*10^{-2})}\bigg (\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}} \bigg)

\mathbf{f= 843.7Hz}

300 Jules energy are used to push an object with a force of 75N. what is the maximum distance the object can move?
Artyom0805 [142]

Energy consumed in doing the work = 300 Joules

Force applied on the object = 75 N

Let the distance moved by the object be d.

Work done by the force is determined by the force applied and the displacement happened in the direction of the force applied.

Work done = Force x displacement

300 = 75 x d

d = \frac{300}{75}

d = 4 m

Hence, the maximum distance moved by the object = 4 meters

7. A box is pulled straight across the floor at a constant speed. It is pulled with a horizontal force of 48 N.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a)Taking into consideration Newton’s second law, we know that

Net_Force = mass * acceleration

Since the box is pulled at constant speed, the acceleration is equal to zero.

This means that

Net_Force  = 0 N

b) Force of friction

The net force is equal to the sum of all forces,

Net_Force   = Force_applied - Friction

We found that Net_Force  = 0, which means

Friction = Force_applied = 48 N

c) If the box comes to a stop. And the applied force becomes zero, the friction force becomes also zero.

Friction  = 0 N
