until the sensor senses smoke.

<h3>What is a schematic diagram?</h3>

A simple, understandable graphical representation of a plan or model is called a schematic diagram. Simple lines and symbols are used in schematics to convey details like what, how, and where. A schematic diagram's primary role is to highlight circuit components and the relationships between them. Schematics are a very useful tool for troubleshooting since they show which parts are connected in series or parallel and how.

An example of an electrical switch is one that is normally open. A typically open switch remains "off" when it is not compressed. The inside electrical connections are to blame for this. In a typically open switch, the contacts are open when the switch is off. This indicates that the switch is "off" because the electrical connection is damaged.

A 30 kg object has a frictional force of 60 N. It's coefficient of friction must be...?
MrRa [10]

mass = 30kg

frictional force = coefficient of friction * (mass * g)

g = 9.8 m/s^2

So:

60N = x * 294 N

x = 60 N / 294 N = 0,2

A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force)
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

The student is going at the bottom of the slide with a velocity of 8.66 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the student, m = 74 kg

height of the water slide, h = 11.3 m

work done, W = -5.42 × 10³ J

Apply work energy theorem;

W = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2+ mgh_f-(\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2 + mgh_o)\\\\  W + \frac{1}{2}mv_o^2 + mgh_o -mgh_f= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2\\\\  W + \frac{1}{2}mv_o^2 +mg(h_o-h_f) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2\\\\\frac{W}{m} + \frac{1}{2} v_o^2 + g(h_o-h_f) =  \frac{1}{2}v_f^2\\\\\frac{2W}{m}+ v_o^2 + 2g(h_o-h_f) = v_f^2\\\\v_f = \sqrt{\frac{2W}{m}+ v_o^2 - 2g(h_f-h_o)} \\\\v_f =  \sqrt{\frac{2(-5.42*10^3)}{74}+ (0)^2 - 2*9.8(-11.3)}\\\\v_f=\sqrt{-146.4865+221.48} \\\\v_f = \sqrt{74.9935} \\\\v_f = 8.66 \ m/s

Therefore, the student is going at the bottom of the slide with a velocity of 8.66 m/s

A student performed an experiment to test the acidity of foods. Put the following steps in the order they should occur. The stud
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Steps in the order they should occur:

  • Observes that there are acidic foods
  • Asks a question about food’s acidity
  • Creates a hypothesis about the acidity
  • Prepares to conduct the experiment
  • The student records the acidity of the food.
  • Presents the results to the class

Explanation:


This question is addressed to reflect on the scientific method, and so it deals with the logical steps that are followed regularly in such process.


It is the observation of a natural phenomenum what sparks the whole process. In this case, <u><em>the student observes that there are acidic foods</em></u>.


After such observation, some minds, the curious minds, start to ask questions: why?, how?, when?, what happens if? Numerous questions might arise, it is the curiosity attitude, that accompanies the scientific mind. So,<em><u> the student asks a question about food’s acidity</u></em>.


The trained scientist then elaborate a hypothesis : a logical tentative prediction which relates a thesis and a conclusion, in the form if _________ then ________, addresed to answer the question. This hypotheisis must be testable, so it must contains objective variables, which can be verified through an experiment by measurements that can be replicated by any one. So, at this point <em><u>fhe student creates a hypothesis about the acidity</u></em>.


The next steps are:

  • <em><u>Prepares to conduct the experiment</u></em>: the student must select the independent, dependent and control variables, and plan the materials and equipment needed, the place, the time, the budget, and the special conditions to perform the experiment.
  • <u><em>The student records the acidity of the food</em></u>: the experiment is run and the data is recorded, and analyzed, to drive a conclusion:
  • <em><u>Presents the results to the class</u></em>: this is how science evolve. The presentation of the results is important because 1) permits the validation of the results by the community, and 2) permits that other scientist use the results to continue with the process, start with a new question, and, might be, to validate a theory or create a new one.

If a spring has an elastic potential energy of 60 J and a displacement of 4 m , what is the spring constant of the spring?
enyata [817]

Answer:

7.5 N/m

Explanation:

Potential energy of a spring can be calculated using below formula

Potential energy= 1/2kx^2

potential energy = 60 J

X= displacement = 4 m

K= spring constant=?

Substitute the values we have

60= 1/2 × K × 4^2

60= 1/2 × K × 16

60= K × 8

K= 7.5 N/m

Hence, the spring constant of the spring is 7.5 N/m
