Answer : The volume of engine in cubic inches is, $427.166\text{ inch}^3$

Explanation :

As we are given that the volume of engine is, 7.0 liters. Now we have to calculate the volume of engine in cubic inches.

Conversion used :

$1\text{ liter}=1000cm^3$

So, $7\text{ liter}=7000cm^3$

$1\text{ inch}=2.54cm$

or,

$1cm=\frac{1}{2.54}\text{ inch}$

$1cm^3=(\frac{1}{2.54}\text{ inch})^3$

As,

$1cm^3=(\frac{1}{2.54}\text{ inch})^3$

So,

$7000cm^3=\frac{7000cm^3}{1cm^3}\times (\frac{1}{2.54}\text{ inch})^3=427.166\text{ inch}^3$

Thu, the volume of engine in cubic inches is, $427.166\text{ inch}^3$

What are the differences between the practical and the ideal pendulum

ankoles [38]

lf a heavy point mass is suspended by a weightless, inextensible and perfectly flexible string from a rigid support, then this arrangement is called simple pendulum.

In practice, however, these requirements cannot be fulfilled. So we use a practical pendulum.

A practical pendulum consists of a small metallic solid sphere suspended by a fine silk thread from a rigid support. This is the practical simple pendulum which is nearest to the ideal simple pendulum.

Note :

The metallic sphere is called the bob.

When the bob is displaced slightly to one side from its mean position and released, it oscillates about its mean position in a vertical plane.

On my science test, there is a bonus question that I want to get right. Why would it be a bad idea to skydive on the moon? Hint:

eduard

Answer:

Because there is no air resistance

Explanation:

When an object falls on Earth, there are essentially two forces acting on it:

- The force of gravity, downward, equal to the weight of the object:

$W=mg$

where m is the mass and g the acceleration due to gravity

- The air resistance, F, which acts upward, and whose magnitude is generally proportional to v, the speed of the object

When the object starts its fall, its initial speed is zero: v = 0, so the air resistance is also zero: F=0, and the object accelerates downward due to gravity.

However, as it accelerates downward, its speed increases, and so does the air resistance F. However, F is upward, opposite to the direction of motion, therefore it reduces the net acceleration of the object; at a certain point, the magnitude of the air resistance will become equal to the weight, so that

mg = F

and at that point, the net acceleration of the object will become zero: this means that the object will continue its fall at a constant velocity, called terminal velocity.

On the Moon instead, there is no air resistance: this means that for an object falling down, the speed keeps increasing due to the effect of gravity, and it will never reach a terminal value: therefore, the final velocity at the impact will be much higher than on the Earth, if we assume the two objects have been dropped from a very high altitude from the surface.

Katelyn (55 kg) is practicing a drop jump in the biomechanics lab. She steps off a plyometrics box, lands on the force plate, an

suter [353]

Answer:

J = 357.5 kg*m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on Katelyn when she was on the force plate, is equal to the change in her momentum, according to Newton's 2nd Law.
Assuming as the positive direction the upward direction (coincident with the positive y-axis) we can express the initial momentum as follows:

$p_{o} = m*v_{o} = 55 kg * (-3.0 m/s) (1)$

By the same token, the final momentum is as follows:

$p_{f} = m*v_{f} = 55 kg * (3.5 m/s) (2)$

As we have already said, the impulse J is just equal to the change in momentum, i.e., the difference between (2) and (1):

$J = p_{f} - p_{o} = m* (v_{f} -v_{o}) = 55 kg* (3.5m/s- (-3.0m/s)) = 357.5 kg*m/s (3)$

Astronomers are getting information about dark energy from

Thepotemich [5.8K]

The only way of telling about dark energy is our observation of how the universe has been expanding. It basically works the opposite as gravity, pushing things away from it. Thus, the closest answer would be D. The shape of galaxies in cluster galaxies.
