Given that the block have two applied masses 250 g at East and 100 g at South. In order to make a situation in which block moves towards point A, we have to apply minimum number of masses to the blocks. In order to prevent block moving toward East, we have to apply a mass at West, equal to the magnitude of mass at East but opposite in direction. Therefore, mass of 250 g at West is the required additional mass that has to be added. There is already 100 g of mass acting at South, that will attract block towards South or point A. No need to add further mass in North-South direction.

Darius' boat sails into the harbor with a speed of 80m/s. After 20 seconds, Darius' boat has come to a stop at the dock. What is

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The boat's acceleration is 4 m/s²

Explanation:

This question seeks to test the knowledge of acceleration and how to calculate acceleration when the speed is provided. Hence, the formula for acceleration would be used here.

Acceleration (m/s²) = speed (in m/s) ÷ time (in seconds)

Acceleration = 80 m/s ÷ 20 secs

Acceleration = 4 m/s² or 4 ms⁻²

The boat's acceleration is 4 m/s²

Two bulbs are connected in parallel across a source of EMF = 8.0V with a negligible internal resistance. One bulb has a resistan

Sonja [21]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 3.18Ω

(b) 3.18Ω

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let the two bulbs be A and B

Given;

$R_{A}$ = Resistance in bulb A = 3.0Ω

$R_{B}$ = Resistance in bulb B = 2.5Ω

Since the two bulbs are connected in parallel;

i. their effective resistance ( $R_{X}$ ) is given by

$\frac{1}{R_{X}}$ = $\frac{1}{R_{A} }$ + $\frac{1}{R_{B} }$ ---------------(i)

Substitute the values of $R_{A}$ and $R_{B}$ into equation (i)

=> $\frac{1}{R_{X}}$ = $\frac{1}{3.0}$ + $\frac{1}{2.5}$

Solve for $R_{X}$

$R_{X}$ = 1.36Ω

ii. voltage (potential difference), V, across them is the same;

Therefore we can get the total current (I) that will flow through them if the voltage to be supplied is 2.4V.

Use the Ohm's law;

V = I x R -----------------(ii)

Where;

V = voltage across them = 2.4V

I = total current flowing through them

R = their effective resistance = $R_{X}$ = 1.36Ω

Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;

2.4 = I x 1.36

I = 2.4 / 1.36

I = 1.76A

(a) Now get the value of R

Since the voltage across the two bulbs is 2.4V out of the 8.0V supplied by the source, then the remaining (8.0 - 2.4 = 5.6)V will pass across the resistor R.

Also, since the two bulbs make a series connection with the resistor R, the same total current (I = 1.76A) that flows through these bulbs will flow through the resistor R.

Therefore, to get the value of R, we use the relation

V = I x R ------------------------------(iii)

Where;

V = voltage across the resistor = 5.6V

I = current through the resistor = 1.76A

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii)</em>

=> 5.6 = 1.76 x R

=> R = 5.6 / 1.76

=> R = 3.18Ω

Therefore, the value of R to be chosen in order to supply each bulb with a voltage of 2.4V is 3.18Ω

(b) The potential difference and voltage across refer to the same thing. Therefore, the value of R that would make the potential difference across each of the bulbs be 2.4V is the same as the one calculated in (a) which is 3.18Ω

Why do objects not cool to absolute zero by emitting all their thermal energy

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Because the object should shrink its volume to zero, which is impossible

Explanation:

Let's talk about gases for simplicity. Ideal gases are governed by the ideal gas equation:

$pV=nRT$

where

p is the gas pressure

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

From the formula, we see that T and V are directly proportional: therefore, in order for a gas to have an absolute temperature of zero, it must also have a volume of zero, which is impossible.

A sled is moving at a constant speed down a surface inclined at 45 degrees with the horizontal and travels 30meter in 4 seconds.

Vika [28.1K]

Constant speed along the inclined surface = 30 m / 4 s = 7.5 m/s

Vertical speed = inclined speed * sin(45) = 7.5 *√2 / 2 = 5.3 m/s

Answer: 5.3 m/s
