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

Two cylinders A and B at the same temperature contain the same quantity of the same kind of gas. Cylinder A has three times the
astraxan [27]

Answer:

so pressure in A must be one third the pressure in B

Explanation:

We shall apply gas law to the cylinders A and B . Since their quantity are same so their no of  mole will also be same .

For cylinder A

Temperature T , volume 3V , pressure  P₁ , no of mole = n

so

P₁ X 3V = n R T

For cylinder B

Temperature T , volume V , pressure  P₂ ,no of  mole = n

so

P₂ X V = n R T

From the two equation above

P₁ X 3V = P₂ X V

\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{1}{3}

P₁ = P₂ / 3

so pressure in A must be one third the pressure in B

The Atomic Mass of an element is
dedylja [7]

Answer:

C) A ratio based on the mass of a carbon-12 atom

Explanation:

For each element, there is a characteristic number of protons, this number represent a type of atom and its called the atomic number

On the other hand we have the number of neutrons, and for one element which difers only on the number of neutrons, we have different isotopes from one element.

Together, protons and neutrons define the mass number

One property linked with the mass number, is the atomic mass, which is formerly expressed as "uma" (atomic mass unit)

By definition, one atom of carbon-12 (with 6 neutrons) has an atomic mass of 12 umas

A car weighing 5,500kg travels at a speed of 55km/h up a 15m hill. What is its mechanical energy? Hint: In order to answer this
Leya [2.2K]

The mechanical energy of the train is 1,451,222.53 J

The given parameters:

mass of the car, m = 5500 kg

speed of the car, v = 55 km/h = 15.278 m/s

height of the hill, h = 15 m

To find:

  • the mechanical energy of the train

The mechanical energy of the train = kinetic energy + potential energy

The kinetic energy (KE) at the train at bottom hill is calculated as:

K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\K.E = 0.5 \times 5500\times (15.278)^2\\\\K.E = 641,897.53 \ J

The potential energy (P.E) of the train on top hill is calculated as:

P.E = mgh

P.E = 5500 x 9.81 x 15

P.E = 809,325 J

The mechanical energy of the train = K.E + P.E

The mechanical energy of the train = 641,897.53 J + 809,325 J

The mechanical energy of the train = 1,451,222.53 J

Thus, the mechanical energy of the train is 1,451,222.53 J

How can free runners extend the time of impact when they land on the ground after jumping long distance
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

By leaping.

Explanation:

When free runners run, they also leap. They do this so they can get more distance and air time. Leaping will allow them to get more distance per jump.

Which possible component of initial energy is caused by molecular motion within a material?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Thermal energy

Explanation:

The internal energy of a system is widely known as thermal energy. Now, thermal energy is also called heat energy and it is an internal energy of a component which is produced when an increase in temperature causes atoms and molecules within the component to move faster and start colliding with one other.

Therefore, the more heat the is applied to the component, the hotter the substance and the more its particles move which in turn leads to a higher thermal energy.
