A conveyor belt is used to move sand from one place to another in a factory. The conveyor is tilted at an angle of 18° above the

horizontal and the sand is moved without slipping at the rate of 2 m/s. The sand is collected in a big drum 5 m below the end of the conveyor belt. Determine the horizontal distance between the end of the conveyor belt and the middle of the collecting drum.

Answer:

x = 2.044 m

Explanation:

given data

initial vertical component of velocity = Vy = 2sin18

initial horizontal component of velocity = Vx = 2cos18

distance from the ground yo = 5m

ground distance y = 0

from equation of motion

y = yo+ V_y t +\frac{1}{2}gt^2

0 = 5 + 2sin18+ \frac{1}{2}*9.8t^2

solving for t

t = 1.075 sec

for horizontal motion

x = V_x t

x = 2cos18*1.075

x = 2.044 m

State two places where thermal conduction takes place.
Crank

Answer:

two places where thermal conduction takes place are gases and liquids, conduction is due to collisions of molecules during their random motion. Hence, the correct option is (C). Note: Though, the particle distances between gases are much more in comparison to solids and liquids, conduction slowly occurs in gases also

Given a force of 100 N and acceleration of 5 m/s2, what is the mass
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

20 kg

Explanation:

remember the equation f=ma.

100 N=force

5 m/s2= acceleration

so you need to divide force by acceleration: 100 N/ 5 m/s2= 20 kg, to get the mass.

A scientist suspends a spring from a force sensor. She then pulls on the spring causing the spring to stretch 1.0 cm. She record
Nadusha1986 [10]
This situation describes the Hooke's Law which states that "When an elastic object - such as a spring - is stretched, the increased length is called its extension. The extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied to it". The formula is <span>F = k × e , F for the force, k for spring constant expressed in N/m, e for extension in m. This equation works for as long the spring is not stretch too much because once it exceeded its limit, the spring will not return to its original length the moment the load is removed.</span>
