Andrew [12]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

During a recent congressional hearing, Rick Perry, the US energy secretary, remarked that “to stand up and say that 100% of global warming is because of human activity, I think on its face, is just indefensible”.

A vertical spring stretches 4.0 cm when a 12-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 28 g that osc
marin [14]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 0.0671 sec  

Explanation:

It is given a vertical spring is stretched by 4 cm

So change in length of the spring x = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Mass which is hung from it m = 12 gram = 0.012 kg

Sprig force will be equal to weight of the mass

So kx=mg

k\times 0.04=0.012\times 9.8

k = 244.7 N/m

Now new mass is m = 28 gram = 0.028 kg

So time period with new mass will be

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{0.028}{244.7}}=0.0671sec

How much energy (in kilojoules) is required to convert 200 mL of diethyl ether at its boiling point from liquid to vapor if its
LiRa [457]

Answer:

55.96kJ

Explanation:

Energy = mass of diethyl ether × enthalpy of vaporization of diethyl ether

Volume (v) = 200mL, density (d) = 0.7138g/mL

Mass = d × v = 0.7138 × 200 = 142.76g

Enthalpy of vaporization of diethyl ether = 29kJ/mol

MW of diethyl ether (C2H5)2O = 74g/mol

Enthalpy in kJ/g = 29kJ/mol ÷ 74g/mol = 0.392kJ/g

Energy = 142.76g × 0.392kJ/g = 55.96kJ

1. A racing car with the driver weighs 1825 lb. Find the kinetic energy in ft*lb when traveling with a speed of 100 mi/hr.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

1. 610,000 lb ft

2. 490 J

Explanation:

1. First, convert mi/hr to ft/s:

100 mi/hr × (5280 ft / mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 146.67 ft/s

Now find the kinetic energy:

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (1825 lb / 32.2 ft/s²) (146.67 ft/s)²

KE = 610,000 lb ft

2. KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (5 kg) (14 m/s)²

KE = 490 J

At an air show, a stunt pilot performs a vertical loop-the-loop in a circle of radius 3.63 x 103 m. During this performance the
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

189 m/s

Explanation:

The pilot will experience weightlessness when the centrifugal force, F equals his weight, W.

So, F = W

mv²/r = mg

v² = gr

v = √gr where  v = velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and r = radius of loop = 3.63 × 10³ m

So, v = √gr

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 3.63 × 10³ m)

v = √(35.574 × 10³ m²/s²)

v = √(3.5574 × 10⁴ m²/s²)

v = 1.89 × 10² m/s

v = 189 m/s
