After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 27 people including the driver, with an average

mass of 69kg per person. In addition, there are three 15-kg goats, five 3-kg chickens, and a total of 25 kg of bananas on their way to the market. Assume that the springs have somehow not yet compressed to their maximum amount. How much are the springs compressed?

We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are: $M_p = 69*27=1823Kg\\M_g=15*3=45Kg\\M_c=3*5=15Kg\\M_B=25Kg$

Total Mass $= 1863+45+15+25=1948Kg$

The Weight is,

$F=mg=1948*98=19090.4N$

Through the hook's Law we calculate X.

$F_s=Kx$ , where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.

We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)

$X = \frac{F_s}{x} \\X = \frac{1909.4}{k}$

I assume a value of $K=4*10^4N/m$

$X= \frac{1909.4}{4*10^4} = 0.48m$

The magnetic field a distance 2 cm from a long straight current-carrying wire is 2 × 10–5 t. the current in the wire is:

Sliva [168]

Current in the wire = 2 A

Explanation:

the magnetic field is given by

B= \frac{\mu i}{2\pi r}

μo= 4π x 10⁻⁷ Tm/A

i= current

r=0.02 m

B = magnetic field= 2 x 10⁻⁵ T

2 x 10⁻⁵= (4π x 10⁻⁷)(i) / (2π*0.02)

i=2 A

39 g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.904 J/g·°C) at 24°C is placed in 166 mL (166 g) of coffee at 83°C and the temperature of th

tatuchka [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, $\text{heat}_{absorbed}=\text{heat}_{released}$

To calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

Also,

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of aluminium = 39 g

$m_2$ = mass of coffee = 166 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = temperature of aluminium = $24^oC$

$T_2$ = temperature of coffee = $83^oC$

$c_1$ = specific heat of aluminium = $0.904J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of coffee= $4.1801J/g^oC$

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

$39\times 0.904\times (T_{final}-24)=-[166\times 4.1801\times (T_{final}-83)]$

$T_{final}=80.14^oC$

Hence, the final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$

How would the mathematical model change if the direction that the object traveled was reversed

victus00 [196]

A line that is falling towards the x axis represents an object that is negatively accelerating, or slowing down. When the line hits the x axis, the object has stopped moving. If the graph continues below the x axis, the object has changed direction and is moving backwards at increasing velocity.
