Why did the waco tornado happen?

A 1.15 kg book is at rest on the table. What is the magnitude of the normal force that the table is exerting on the book?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

11.27N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book = 1.15kg

Unknown:

Magnitude of the normal force = ?

Solution:

The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.

It can be described as the weight of an object.

Normal force = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Normal force = 1.15 x 9.8 = 11.27N

Two identical silver spheres of mass m and radius r are placed a distance R (sphere 1) and 2R (sphere 2) from the Sun, respectiv

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The ratio of T2 to T1 is 1.0

Explanation:

The gravitational force exerted on each sphere by the sun is inversely proporational to the square of the distance between the sun and each of the spheres.

Provided that the two spheres have the same radius r, the pressure of solar radiation too, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of each sphere from the sun.

Let F₁ and F₂ = gravitational force of the sun on the first and second sphere respectively

P₁ and P₂ = Pressure of solar radiation on the first and second sphere respectively

M = mass of the Sun

m = mass of the spheres, equal masses.

For the first sphere that is distance R from the sun.

F₁ = (GmM/R²)

P₁ = (k/R²)

T₁ = (F₁/P₁) = (GmM/k)

For the second sphere that is at a distance 2R from the sun

F₂ = [GmM/(2R)²] = (GmM/4R²)

P₂ = [k/(2R)²] = (k/4R²)

T₂ = (F₂/P₂) = (GmM/k)

(T₁/T₂) = (GmM/k) ÷ (GmM/k) = 1.0

Hope this Helps!!!

Describe how the student should measure the time taken for the toy parachute to

PolarNik [594]

The time must be measured with respect to gravity. As it falls, it has free fall that is the force acting on it will be the gravity.With the distance in account, d = 1/2 gt²

t = √(2d/g)

Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20Â°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis

Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

1)

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

2)

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

3)

Initial pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) / 0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4)

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³
