Answer:

<em>The engine must provide power to compensate friction</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

Newton's first law states that a body will keep its speed or state of rest while no external net force is applied. Our automobile is running through a road which surface exerts a frictional force on the wheels. If we didn't use fuel, the automobile will eventually stop, because the unbalanced friction force causes deceleration. To compensate that force, we must provide power to the engine. When our speedometer shows a constant speed, the net force is zero, but the car needs to accelerate some, just to compensate the friction force.

The total acceleration keeps being zero, but the engine is actually doing work against friction.

What is the primary consideration in choosing a solvent for crystallizing a compound
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

1. The compound should be dissolved at the solvent boiling point.

2. It should be better none of the compound dissolve while at room

   temperature.

3. The compound must have lower boiling point (low boiling point) than

    melting point in hot solvent so to avoid it melts.

4. The compound have different solubility and impurity.

Explanation:

in order a compound to have a good crystallization, these are the primary consideration that should be followed.

1. The compound should be dissolved at the solvent boiling point.

2. It should be better none of the compound dissolve while at room

   temperature.

3. The compound must have lower boiling point (low boiling point) than

    melting point in hot solvent so to avoid it melts.

4. The compound have different solubility and impurity.

Determine the moment of inertia of a 14.8 kg sphere of radius 0.752 m when the axis of rotation is through its center.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

I=3.348Kgm^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=14.8kg

Radiusr=0.752m

Generally the equation for inertia is mathematically given by

I=\frac{2}{5}mR^2

I=\frac{2}{5}14.8*(0.752)^2

I=3.348Kgm^2

The Lamborghini Huracan has an initial acceleration of 0.80g. Its mass, with a driver, is 1510 kg. If an 80 kg passenger rode al
irina [24]

Answer:

a = 15.1 g

Explanation:

The relation between mass and acceleration is given by :

m\propto \dfrac{1}{a}

If a₁ = 0.80g, m₁ = 1510 kg, m₂ = 80 kg, we need to find a₂

So,

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{a_1m_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{0.8g\times 1510}{80}\\\\a_2=15.1g

So, the car's acceleration would be 15.1 g.

Which of the following sets of characteristics describes the image formed by a plane mirror?A. Virtual and invertedB. Real and u
tiny-mole [99]
<h2>Answer: Virtual and upright</h2><h2 />

A plane mirror is a highly polished flat surface with a very high capacity to reflect incident light.  

We can understand in a better way how this works with the figure attached:  

1. The incident rays coming from the real object reach the mirror and  

2.are reflected following the law of Reflection.  

3.The prolongation of those reflected rays converge at a point that does not coincide with the actual position of the object. At that point the virtual image of the object is formed.  

4.Then, the reflected divergent rays are captured by our eye converging on the retina.  

Now, the image is said to be virtual because it is a copy of the object that looks as if the object is behind the mirror and not in front of it or on the surface, but it is not really there. However, it can be seen when we focus it with our eyes.  

In addition, the image formed is:  

symmetrical, because apparently it is at the same distance from the mirror  

the same size as the object.  

upright, because it retains the same orientation as the object.

In the shadow of a tree with a dense, leafy canopy, one sees a number of light spots. Surprisingly, they all appear to be circul
Bad White [126]

The characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon allow to find the result for the shape of the points of light that you pass the tree is:

  • The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.

Diffraction is the phenomenon where the undulatory part of the light becomes evident, it is the interference of the waves that make up each ray of light, for this phenomenon to occur it must be fulfilled that the wavelength is of the order of the space where pass the light.

In the leafy tree it has many leaves, but there are spaces between them, some of these spaces are small and it fulfills the diffraction condition, therefore we see bright spots and not a continuous shadow.

Diffraction can be classified depending on the distance to the observer:

  • Near field or fresnel. In this case the distance from the observer is small and we can see the shape of the object that creates the diffraction.
  • Far field or Fraunhoger. In this case the distance between the obstacle (leaves) and the person is great, here the information on the shape of things is lost and we have two observable forms. Lines for the case of slits and circles for the case of objects with a closed shape.

In this case, the distance from the leaves to the observer is large, therefore we are in the case of far-field diffraction and since the edge of the leaves that forms the diffraction is closed, the observable shape is a circle.

In conclusion using the characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon we can find the result for the shape of the points of light that pass the tree is:

  • The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.
