Answer:

a = 2d / t²

or

a = 2gh / (3d)

Explanation:

One method is to use the equation:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

d = (0) t + ½ at²

d = ½ at²

a = 2d / t²

By measuring the length of the incline d, and the time it takes to reach the bottom t, the students can calculate the acceleration, using only the meter stick and the stopwatch.

Another method is to use conservation of energy to find the final velocity.

Initial potential energy = final rotational energy + kinetic energy

PE = RE + KE

mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²

For a solid cylinder, I = ½ mr².  For rolling without slipping, ω = v/r.

mgh = ½ (½ mr²) (v/r)² + ½ mv²

mgh = ¼ mv² + ½ mv²

mgh = ¾ mv²

4gh/3 = v²

Using constant acceleration equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

4gh/3 = 0² + 2ad

a = 2gh / (3d)

Using this equation, the students can measure the height of the incline h, and the length of the incline d, to calculate the acceleration.  The only equipment needed is the meter stick.

mixas84 [53]

Yes heating water allows it to dissolve more Sugars because the molecular distance increases and this distance can be covered by more sugar. In the given question, The independent variable would be the temperature of water.

Since to whatever temperature the water boils at the boiling temperature of  does not change remains hundred degree. Rest all the variables can vary the weight of the amount of sugar with the variable in the temperature of Boiling of water to remain constant.

Part 1 - Basic Equations
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

1. λ = 2 L, 2.  v = 2L f₁ , 3.    v = √ T /μ², 4.   μ = 2,287 10⁻³ kg / m , 5.   Δv / v = 0.058 , 6.    Δμ /  μ = 0.12 , 7. Δ μ = 0.3  10⁻³ kg / m ,

8.  μ = (2.3 ±0.3)  10⁻³ kg / m

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is

            v = λ f                1

Where f is the frequency and λ the wavelength

     

The speed is given by the physical quantities of the system with the expression

            v = √ T /μ²                   2

1) The fundamental frequency of a string is when at the ends we have nodes and a maximum in the center, therefore this is

                 L = λ / 2

                 λ = 2 L

2) For this we substitute in equation 1

              v = 2L f₁

3) let's clear from equation 2

             

The speed of a wave is

            v = λ f₁

Where f is the frequency and Lam the wavelength

The speed is given by the physical quantities of the system with the expression

           v = √ T /μ²                            2

4) linear density is

           μ = T / (2 L f₁)²

           μ = 5.08 / (2 0.812 29.02)²

           μ = 2,287 10⁻³ kg / m

We maintain three significant length figures, so the result is reduced to

           μ = 2.29 10⁻³ kg / m

5) the speed of the wave is

            v = 2 L f₁

The fractional uncertainty is

         Δv / v = ΔL / L + Δf₁ / F₁

         Δv / v = 0.02 / 0.812 + 1 / 29.02

         Δv / v = 0.024 + 0.034

         Δv / v = 0.058

6) the equation for linear density is

              μ = T / (2 L f₁)²

             Δμ / μ = 2 ΔL / L + 2Δf₁ / f₁

The tension is an exact value therefore its uncertainty is zero ΔT = 0

            Δμ / μ = 2 0.02 / 0.812 + 2 1 / 29.02

             Δμ /  μ = 0.12

7) absolute uncertainty

           Δ μ = e_{r}   μ

           Δ μ = 0.12 2.29 10⁻³ kg / m

           Δ μ = 0.3  10⁻³ kg / m

8)

           μ = (2.3 ±0.3)  10⁻³ kg / m

What current flows through a 2.60-cm-diameter rod of pure silicon that is 20.5 cm long, when 1.00 ✕ 103 V is applied to it? (Suc
Virty [35]

Answer:

1.13 mA

Explanation:

Length of wire L = 20.5 cm = 0.205m

Radius of wire r = 2.60/2 = 1.3cm = 0.0130m

Voltage V = 1 × 10³ V

Resistivity of pure silicon p = 2300 Ohms • m

Cross sectional area of the wire

A = pi × r² = pi × (0.013)² = 5.307 × 10 ^-4 m²

Resistance of the material

R = p• L/A

= 2300 • 0.205/5.307 × 10^-4 = 0.888 × 10⁶ Ohms

Using Ohms Law

R = V/ I

I = V/R

I = 10³/0.888 × 10⁶

= 0.001126 A

= 1.13 mA

Imagine you are sitting on a sled and someone is about to push you down a hill. Which statement is accurate?
Dima020 [189]

The answer is:

Forces acting on the sled are paired with equal and opposite forces.

The explanation:

About to push you, this means that he doesn't push yet. If the sled is on level ground and no one is pushing it, then forces are equal and opposite.

The gravity force pulls down and the ground pushes up.

This is Newton's third law:

Newton's third law: If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A.

This law represents a certain symmetry in nature: forces always occur in pairs, and one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.

We can also see Newton’s third law at work by taking a look at how people move about. Consider a swimmer pushing off from the side of a pool.
