Answer:

Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium.

The world speed record on water was set on October

Luda [366]

Answer: Remember speed is distance divided by time, so if he travels 1000 m in 7.045 s, his speed is

(1000 m)/(7.045 s) = 141.9 m/s.

Note there are 1609 metres in a mile, or 1 mi = 1609 m, so m = 1/1609 mi, or

141.9/1609 mi/s = 0.08822 mi/s. Now, note that 1 h = 3600 s, so the speed is

0.08822*3600 mi/h = 317.6 mi/h.

3. The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a two-particle system is at the origin. One particle

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

B) (-2.0 m, 0.0 m)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of particle 1 is, $m_1=2.0\ kg$

Mass of particle 2 is, $m_2=3.0\ kg$

Position of center of mass is, $(x_{cm},y_{cm})=(0,0)$

Position of particle 1 is, $(x_1,y_1)=(3.0\ m,0.0\ m)$

Position of particle 2 is, $(x_2,y_2)=(?\ m,?\ m)$

We know that, the x-coordinate of center of mass of two particles is given as:

$x_{cm}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Plug in the values given.

$0=\frac{(2.0\times 3)+(3.0\times x_2)}{2.0+3.0}\\\\0=6+3x_2\\\\3x_2=-6\\\\x_2=\frac{-6}{3}=-2.0\ m$

We know that, the y-coordinate of center of mass of two particles is given as:

$y_{cm}=\frac{m_1y_1+m_2y_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Plug in the values given.

$0=\frac{(2.0\times 0)+(3.0\times y_2)}{2.0+3.0}\\\\0=0+3y_2\\\\3y_2=0\\\\y_2=\frac{0}{3}=0.0\ m$

Therefore, the position of particle 2 of mass 3.0 kg is (-2.0 m, 0.0 m).

So, option (B) is correct.

2. Determine the current in a 120-watt bulb plugged into a 120-volt outlet.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

1 ampere

Explanation:

Power = VI

V = voltage

I = current

Given

Power = 120 watts

V = 120 volts

Therefore

120 = 120 x I

Divide both sides by 120

120/120 = 120/120 x I

1 = I

I = 1 ampere
