The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0°C. What will its height b

e on a day when the temperature falls to −10.0°C ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.

Answer:

169.98 m

Explanation:

\alpha = Thermal coefficient of marble = 2.5\times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C

L_0 = Initial length = 170 m

\Delta T = Change in temperature = (-10-35)°C

Change in length is given by

\Delta L=\alpha L_0\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=2.5\times 10^{-6}\times 170\times (-10-35)\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=-0.019125\ m

The height on the given day will be 170-0.019125=169.98\ m

The motion of an object undergoing constant acceleration can be modeled by the kinematic equations. One such equation is xf=xi+v
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

a = -04978 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the kinematics equations, as the initial speed, distance and time indicate, we can use

        x = x₀ + v₀ t + 1 /2 a  t²

       ½ a t² = x-x₀ - v₀ t

       a = (x-x₀ - v₀ t) 2 / t²

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     x₀ = 1000 mm = 1 m

     x  = 5000mm = 5m

let's calculate

     a = (5 - 1 - 15 60) 2/60²

     a = -04978 m / s²

negative sign indicates that braking is related

Which contributes to the lack of evidence of the Period of Heavy Bombardment on Earth? A. Earth's volcanoes B. Earth's magnetic
RUDIKE [14]
The correct answer to this would be letter:  

A. Earth’s volcanoes

Together with weathering and plate tectonic movements, Earth’s volcanic eruptions and emission of lava has destroyed/covered many of the craters which were created on Earth during the Period of Heavy Bombardment.

In a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by:________
likoan [24]

In a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by magnetic field in the iron core.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the transformer.

<h3>How transformer works?</h3>
  • An item utilized in the transfer of electric energy is a transformer.
  • AC current is used for transmission.
  • It is frequently used to modify the supply voltage between circuits without altering the AC frequency.
  • The fundamentals of mutual and electromagnetic induction govern how the transformer operates.
  • Magnetic field through the primary coil changes when primary coil current varies. the iron core of the secondary coil likewise has a magnetic field.
  • EMF is therefore generated in the secondary coil.

Thus, we can conclude that, in a transformer, energy is carried from the primary coil to the secondary coil by magnetic field in the iron core.

Think about the types of forces holding the atoms together in different chemicals. Are there any patterns that can be drawn from
Leya [2.2K]

Hello. You did not enter the data to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to have an exact answer. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The forces that hold the elements together are called intermolecular forces. They are formed by covalent bonds between the molecules and can be called: dipole-induced (occurs between nonpolar molecules that have a negative pole and a positive pole) and dipole-dipole (occurs between polar moileculas, except when hydrogen is present).

A sled starts from rest,
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

25.6 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the sled.  There are two forces acting on the sled:

Normal force pushing perpendicular to the hill

Weight force pulling straight down

Take sum of the forces parallel to the hill:

∑F = ma

mg sin θ = ma

a = g sin θ

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 38.0°)

a = 6.03 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 6.03 m/s²

t = 4.24 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (6.03 m/s²) (4.24 s) + (0 m/s)

v = 25.6 m/s
