What is most often given a value of zero to describe an object's position on a straight line?

A scene in a movie has a stuntman falling through a floor onto a bed in the room below. The plan is to have the actor fall on hi

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h = 541.2 J

m = 541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

Identify the labeled parts in the figure.

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

I. a, c, f and h

II. e

III. b, d, g and i

IV. i

Explanation:

I. Chemical symbols are simple abbreviations used to represent various elements or compound. They consist entire of alphabet.

For the diagram given above, the labelled parts which represent chemical symbol are: a, c, f and h

II. Coefficients are numbers written before the chemical symbol of elements or compound.

For the diagram given above, the labelled part which represent Coefficient is: e

III. Number of atoms of element present in a compound is simply obtained by taking note of the numbers written as subscript in the chemical formula of the compound.

For the diagram given above, the labelled part which represent the number of atoms of the element are: b, d, g and i

IV. When no number is written as subscript in the formula of the element in the compound, it means the element has just 1 atom in the compound.

For the diagram given above, the labelled part which indicates that only 1 atom of the element is present is: i

A 37 kg object has an applied force of 85N [R] acting on it. The coefficient of

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is quite tricky! You need to do 2 different equations to solve all the parts of this problem. First is finding the acceleration in one dimension, which has an equation of

F - f = ma

where F is the applied Friction,

f is the frictional force acting against F,

m is the mass of the object, and

a is the acceleration of the object (NOT the velocity!)

This is Newton's Second Law expanded on a bit. The sum of the forces working on an object is equal to the object's mass times its acceleration. We have F, but we need f which is found in the equation

f = μ $F_n$ which is the coefficient of kinetic friction times the weight of the object. Weight is found in the equation

w = mg where m is mass and g is the pull of gravity. Let's start there and work backwards:

w = 37(9.8) to 2 sig figs so

w = 360N. Now fill that in to find f:

f = (.17)(360) to 2 sig figs so

f = 61. Now for the final answer in the original equation way back up at the top:

85 - 61 = 37a and do the subtraction on the left side first:

24 = 37a and then we divide to 2 sig figs to get

a = .65 m/s/s

Since we are moving in a straight line (as opposed to on an angle) the displacement is found in

d = rt which simply says that the distance an object moves is equal to its rate times the time. Therefore,

d = 2.2(3.4) to 2 sig figs so

d = 7.5 m

1-¿Que tipo de energía usa en su hogar para el alumbrado , la calefacción y artículos de entretenían, entre otros ? 2-¿ de que m

Harman [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.-Energía eléctrica ( electricidad ) proveniente de una fuente AC ( es decir de corriente alterna)

2.-Hay un proveedor de servicios que lleva la energía a las comunidades en general y en particular la lleva hasta mi casa y escuela. Se define como acometida eléctrica, la infraestructura que lleva la energía desde la red de distribución al tablero principal en el abonado. La acometida puede ser aérea o subterránea, y normalmente consta de tres conductores ( de los cuales dos son calibre AWG # 8 ( dos fases ) y uno AWG # 10 ( neutro ). Esta configuración permite tener: 120 y 240 (V) en servicio en la casa y suficiente capacidad para la carga eléctrica de una casa normal

3.-Si, el tipo de corriente. En el caso de una linterna se usan "pilas" o baterías de corriente directa ( que no varia en el tiempo), en la casa la corriente es alterna de 60 ciclos por segundo de frecuencia.

4.-Si el voltaje es menor en una medida importante la ampolleta no alumbra por cuanto si por ejemplo el voltaje nominal ( o de funcionamiento es 120 V y el voltaje suministrado es 50 V ese voltaje será insuficiente para hacer funcionar el circuito). Si el voltaje es mayor dígamos 240 V la ampolleta se quema.

5.-El interruptor nos asegura la maniobra a nuestra voluntad del circuito del cual forma parte. Es decir si tengo un circuito de alumbrado ( 1 bombillo y un interruptor ) ese interruptor me permitirá apagar y encender la luz cuando yo quiera.

Los breaker son "interruptores" son dispositivos de protección para caso de sobrecargas y/o cortocircuitos
