If you swing a bucket of water fast enough in a vertical circle, at the highest point the water does not spill out. This happens

because an outward force balances the pull of gravity on the water.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

If we swing a bucket of water fast enough in a vertical circle the water does not spill out even at the top-most position of the bucket. This happens because the centrifugal force acting away from the center in a circular motion neutralizes or overcomes the gravitational force on the water particles.

<u>Centrifugal force is mathematically related as:</u>

F=m.r.\omega^2

where:

m = mass of the revolving body

r = radius of revolution

\omega= angular velocity in radians per second

This force F acts in radially outward direction.

What two measurements are needed to determine density?
g100num [7]
Density is defined as (mass) per unit (volume).  So in order to calculate
the density of a glob of some substance, you pretty much have to measure
its mass and its volume.

Why is air considered a fluid
34kurt

Answer:

A fluids is any substance that flows. Air is made of stuff, air particles, that are loosely held together in a gas form. Although liquids are the most commonly recognized fluids, gasses are also fluids. Since air is a gas, it flows and takes the form of its container.

How could you test the hypothesis that elephants interpreted the ground signal as being farther away than the air signal?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

One way to test the hypothesis is to create two waves, one in the air and one on the ground at the same time. One of them for the elephant to get closer and another for the elephants to move away. Observe the reaction of the animal and with this we know which sound came first.

Explanation:

This hypothesis is based on the fact that the speed of sound in air is v = 343 m / s with a small variation with temperature.

The speed of sound in solid soil is an average of the speed of its constituent media, giving values ​​between

 wood      3900 m / s

 concrete 4000 m / s

 fabrics     1540 m / s

 earth       5000 m / s wave S

 ground    7000 m / s P wave

 

we can see that the speed on solid earth is an order of magnitude greater than in air.

One way to test the hypothesis is to create two waves, one in the air and one on the ground at the same time. One of them for the elephant to get closer and another for the elephants to move away. Observe the reaction of the animal and with this we know which sound came first.

From the initial information, the wave going through the ground should arrive first.

The atmosphere of Mars is almost all carbon dioxide and the average surface pressure is 610 Pa (as compared with 101,000 Pa on E
Karolina [17]

Answer:

   z = 3,737 10⁵ m

Explanation:

a) As they indicate that the atmosphere behaves like an ideal gas, we can use the equation

          P V = n R T

          P = (n r / V) T

We replace

         P = (n R / V) T₀ e^{- C z}

b) Let's apply this equation in the points

Lower

        .z = 0

         P₀ = 610 Pa

         P₀ = (nR / V) T₀

Higher.

         P = 10 Pa

          P = (n R / V) T₀ e^{- C z}

We replace

        P = P₀ e^{- C z}

        e^{- C z} = P / P₀

        C z = ln P₀ / P

        z = 1 / C ln P₀ / P

Let's calculate

        z = 1 / 1.1 10⁻⁵ ln (610/10)

        z = 3,737 10⁵ m

What did physicist James Joule's famous paddle wheel experiment demonstrate?
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

<u>Answer </u>

A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water


<u>Explanation</u>

James Joule allowed some water to fall from a height of 1 foot. the water would turn a paddle wheel at the bottom causing a temperature of water to raise.

The height form which the water fell, mass and the temperature of water was measured and used to calculate mechanical equivalent of heat.

From the choices given the best answer is A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water.
