All valid equations in physics have consistent units. Are all equations that have consistent units valid?

Physics

sweet [91]3 years ago

Answer:

c. No. An equation may have consistent units but still be numerically invaid.

Explanation:

For an equation to be corrected, it should have consistent units and also be numerically correct.

Most equation are of the form;

(Actual quantity) = (dimensionless constant) × (dimensionally correct quantity)

From the above, without the dimensionless constant the equation would be numerically wrong.

For example; Kinetic energy equation.

KE = 0.5(mv^2)

Without the dimensionless constant '0.5' the equation would be dimensionally correct but numerically wrong.

A temperature of 200 degrees F is equivalent to approximately
Ann [662]
(1) Changing Fahrenheit to Celsius:
The formula used to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius is as follows:
C = <span>(F - 32) * 5/9
</span>We are given that F=200, substitute in the above formula to get the corresponding temperature in Celsius as follows:
C = (200-32) * (5/9) = 93.333334 degrees Celsius

(2) Changing the Fahrenheit to kelvin:
The formula used to convert from Fahrenheit to kelvin is as follows:
K = <span>(F - 32) * 5/9 + 273.15
</span>We are given that F = 200. substitute in the above formula to get the corresponding temperature in kelvin as follows:
K = (200-32)*(5/9) + 273.15 = 366.483334 degrees kelvin

a brick is suspended above the ground at a height of 6.6 m. it has a mass of 5.3 kg. what is the potential energy of the brick
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The formula for potential energy is
E(p) = mgh

(Mass x gravity x height)

Therefore energy = (5.3)(9.8)(6.6)
= 342.8 J

How did I get 9.8?
9.8 is the constant for gravity

The work function for magnesium is 3.70 ev. what is its cutoff frequency?
alexandr402 [8]

The cutoff frequency for magnesium is 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

<h3>What is cutoff frequency?</h3>

The work function is related to the frequency as

W0 = h x fo

where, fo = cutoff frequency and h is the Planck's constant

Given is the work function for magnesium is  3.70 eV.

fo = 3.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴

fo = 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

Thus, the cut off frequency is 8.93 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

A nonconducting container filled with 25 kg of water at 23°C is fitted with a stirrer, which is made to turn by gravity acting o
Paul [167]

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of water = 25 kg

Temperature = 23°C

Weight of mass = 32 kg

Distance = 5 m

(a). We need to calculate the amount of work done on the water

Using formula of work done

W=mgh

W=32\times9.8\times5

W=1568\ J

The amount of work done on the water is 1568 J.

(b). We need to calculate the internal-energy change of the water

Using formula of internal energy

The change in internal energy of the water equal to the amount of the  work done on the water.

\Delta U=W

\Delta U=1568\ J

The  change in internal energy is 1568 J.

(c). We need to calculate the final temperature of the water

Using formula of the change internal energy

\Delta U=mc_{p}\Delta T

\Delta U=mc_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1})

T_{2}=T_{1}+\dfrac{\Delta U}{mc_{p}}

T_{2}=23+\dfrac{1568}{25\times4.18\times10^{3}}

T_{2}=23.01^{\circ}\ C

The final temperature of the water is 23.01°C.

(d). The amount of heat removed from the water to return it to it initial temperature is the change in internal energy.

The amount of heat is 1568 J.

Hence, This is the required solution.

A 1.40-kg ball tied to a string fixed to the ceiling is pulled to one side by a force F→ . where L = 1.40 kg. What is the tensio
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

T=13.72N

Explanation:

The tension before the ball is released have no angle is in rest at the same axis of the weight so:

∑F=0

Using Newton law in this case the ball is tied so tension before become to swing is

∑F=FN-T=0

T=F_{N}

T=m*g

T=1.40Kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}

T=13.72N
