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

How much heat is released as a 5.89 kg block of aluminum cools from 462 °C to 315 °C. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is
s2008m [1.1K]
Mass, m = 5890g
Change in temperature, θ = Final_temperature - Initial_temperature
= 315 - 462°C
= -147°C

Specific heat capacity of aluminum, c = 0.900 J/(g*K) 
=mcθ
=5890g x 0.900 J/(g*K) x -147°C
=-779,247j

Answer would be C.

Two springs have different spring constants. How could you identify the spring with the greater spring constant value?
sladkih [1.3K]
You could attach both springs to the ceiling and hang the same mass from both. The one that stretches less has the larger spring constant value.

Which substance is a combination of different atoms? homogeneous mixture,heterogeneous mixture,element,compound
Aleks04 [339]
Hi

only compound must two different atom.

Element have made by only single atom.
_________________________________
Compound:
A compound is formed when two or more elements chemically combine together. The elements react chemically and form chemical bonds between the atoms of the elements.

A mixture is a combination of two or more substances which are not chemically the same. ____________________________________
Homogeneous mixtures:
Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition and appearance throughout .A homogeneous mixture is also called a true solution.
Example: sugar solution, ocean water, soft drinks, etc.
____________________________________
Heterogeneous mixtures:
Heterogeneous mixtures consist of different substances.
Examples: mixture of iron and sulphur, mixture of sand and table salt, etc.


so only elements are single atom.

all these are combination of atoms.

thanks for asking
