Answer:

zero.

Explanation:

The condition for an object to be in equilibrium is that there is no resulting force acting on it, in other words, that the force on the object is zero:

$F=0$

and by Newton's second law we know that

$F=ma$

where $m$ is the mass of the object, and $a$ its acceleration.

So combining the two things:

$F=ma=0$

⇒ $ma=0$ , This equation is fulfilled when $a=0$

Wich tells us that for the the block to be in equilibrium, the acceleration must be zero:

$a=0$

Calculate the molarity of a 10. 0% cacl₂ solution. The density of the solution is 1. 0835 g/cm³.

brilliants [131]

The molarity of 10% CaCl2 is 0.9%

concentration of the given salt CaCl₂ = 10%

Density of a solution = 1.0835 g/cm³

Volume = m / d

= 100 / 1.0835

= 92.29 litres

Density = mass / volume

1.0835 × 92.29 = mass

mass = 99.99 gram

Thus the molarity can be calculated by = moles of solute / volume of solution multiplied by 100

= 0.9008/ 92.29 X 100 %

= 0.009 X 100 %

= 0.9 %

The molarity of 10% CaCl2 is 0.9%

Explain why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not. (Be sur

Firlakuza [10]

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.

<h3>Why an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break?</h3>

An egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not because the momentum and acceleration increases when the egg is thrown downward due to gravity but when we throw an egg in the vertical direction, they move against gravity so the momentum and acceleration decreases.

So we can conclude that an egg thrown at a concrete wall will break, but an egg thrown at a sheet hanging from the ceiling will not due to high momentum and acceleration.

An aircraft with a mass of 10,000 kg starts from rest at sea level and takes off, then flies to a cruising speed of 620 km/h and

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The change in potential energy and kinetic energy are 980 MJ and 148.3 MJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of aircraft = 10000 kg

Speed = 620 km/h = 172.22 m/s

Altitude = 10 km = 1000 m

We calculate the change in potential energy

$\Delta P.E=mg(h_{2}-h_{1})$

$\Delta P.E=10000\times9.8\times(10000-0)$

$\Delta P.E=10000\times9.8\times10000$

$\Delta P.E=980000000\ J$

$\Delta P.E=980\ MJ$

For g = 10 m/s²,

The change in potential energy will be 1000 MJ.

We calculate the change in kinetic energy

$\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_{2}^2-v_{1}^2)$

$\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times10000\times(172.22^2-0^2)$

$\Delta K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times10000\times(172.22^2)$

$\Delta K.E=148298642\ J$

$\Delta K.E=148.3\ MJ$

For g = 10 m/s²,

The change in kinetic energy will be 150 MJ.

Hence, The change in potential energy and kinetic energy are 980 MJ and 148.3 MJ.

In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 1850 J of work is done on the gas

Oliga [24]

Answer:

The value of change in internal l energy of the gas = 1850 J

Explanation:

Work done on the gas (W) = - 1850 J

Negative sign is due to work done on the system.

From the first law we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)

Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas

Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas

W = work done on the gas

Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.

⇒ Q = 0

So from equation (1)

⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)

⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)

⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)

⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J

This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.

The fixed hydraulic cylinder C imparts a constant upward velocity v = 2.2 m/s to the collar B, which slips freely on rod OA. Det

Olenka [21]

Answer:

so angular velocity is 7.13128 sec−1

Explanation:

velocity v = 2.2 m/s

displacement s = 220 mm = 0.220 m

distance d = 510 mm = 0.510 m

to find out

angular velocity

solution

we know that

angular velocity will be velocity ( v) / (displacement² + distance²) .....1

now put all these value in equation 1 and we get angular velocity i.e.

angular velocity = velocity ( v) / (displacement² + distance²)

angular velocity = 2.2 / (0.22² + 0.51²)

angular velocity = 2.2 / 0.3085

angular velocity = 7.13128

so angular velocity is 7.13128 sec−1
