Answer:

Barbed wire.

Explanation:

The technology that brought about the end of the open range cattle and large cattle drives in the America west is Barbed wire.

Barbed wire is nothing but wire with cluster of short, sharp spikes set at a regular interval along its length. It mainly, used to make fences of farmed fields to protect from being grazed by herbivores. Moreover, it is used to make boundary of countries as line of control.

The man fire a 50-g arrow that moves at an unknown speed. It hits and embeds in a 350-g block that slides on an air track. At th
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

a)  vAix = 80 m/s

b) The assumptions and implications were:

Assume that friction between the block and the surface it rests on does not change the momentum of the system during the collision.

Assume that friction is negligible throughout the process and the system’s internal energy does not change.

Assume all the system’s kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy at the end of the process.

If any of the assumptions are invalid then the arrow must have been travelling initially, vAix > 80 m/s

Explanation:

Arrow embeds into block

Take in the first instance the system to be the arrow + block (isolated). Establish reference coordinate system with the +x axis running horizontally in the direction of the arrow’s motion. The initial state (i) is the arrow travelling with velocity vAix and the final state (f) is the arrow embedded in the block. Now, apply the component form of the Generalized Impulse Momentum Equation to this system:

pAi + pBi + JonA + JonB = pAf + pBf

pAix + pBix + Jx = pAfx + pBfx

mA*vAix + mB*vBix + 0 = (mA + mB)*vfx

0.05*vAix + 0 = (0.05 + 0.35)*vfx

vAix = 8*vfx        (1)

Arrow embeds into block

Now consider the next phase of motion and take as the system the arrow + block + spring. The initial state (i) is the arrow and block travelling with velocity equivalent to the final velocity from equation 1 (final state velocity in first phase becomes initial velocity in next phase);  vix’ = vfx  and the final state (f) is the arrow + block brought to rest and the spring compressed an amount, Δx = 0.1 m. Now, apply the Generalized Work Energy Principle to the system

Ei + W = Ef

Ki + Usi + W = Kf + Usf

0.5*(mA + mB)*vix’² = 0.5*k*Δx²

(0.05 + 0.35)*vfx² = 4000*(0.1)²

vfx = √(40/0.4) = 10 m/s

Substituting above back into equation 1:

vAix = 8* 10 m/s = 80 m/s

Arrow embeds into block

The assumptions and implications were:

Assume that friction between the block and the surface it rests on does not change the momentum of the system during the collision.

Assume that friction is negligible throughout the process and the system’s internal energy does not change.

Assume all the system’s kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy at the end of the process.

If any of the assumptions are invalid then the arrow must have been travelling initially, vAix > 80 m/s

Physics, calculating net force. Please work it out for me
Margarita [4]

Answer:

F = 2985.125 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 8 m

Speed of Micheal, v = 17 m/s

Mass of body, m = 65 kg  We need to find the net force acting on Micheal. Net force act the bottom of the circle is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\\F=m(\dfrac{v^2}{r}+g)\\\\=65(\dfrac{17^2}{8}+9.8)\\\\=2985.125\ N

So, the net force is 2985.125 N.

Which property helps to explain differences in the specific heat capacities of
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

D. Forces between molecules

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of water can be defined as the amount of heat a gram of water must lose or absorb in order to change its temperature by a degree Celsius. It is measured in Joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). Generally, the specific heat capacity of water is 4.182J/kg°C and is the highest among liquids.

Mathematically, the specific heat capacity of a substance is given by the formula;

c = \frac {Q}{mdt}

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

Cohesion is a property of water and it typically refers to the attraction between molecules of water which holds them together.

In Science, the property which helps to explain differences in the specific heat capacities of two substances is the forces between molecules.

This ultimately implies that, the more closely bonded the atoms of a substance are, the higher or greater would be the substance's specific heat capacity. Thus, it varies for the various states of matter i.e solid, liquid and gas.

The critical angle between a medium and air is 430. What is the speed of light in that medium?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.

Explanation:

since the critical angle is Фc = 430, we know that the refractive index is given by:

n = 1/sin(Фc)

  = 1/sin(430)

  = 1.06

then if n is the refractive index of the medium and c is the speed of light, then the speed of light in the medium is given by:

v = c/n

  = (3×10^8)/(1.06)

  = 281907786.2 m/s

Therefore, the speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.
