Heat is a form of energy that can be transferred from one object to another or even created at the expense of the loss of other forms of energy.

If you know the amount of air pressure exerted on a tabletop, how can you calculate the force exerted on the tabletop? Multiply

babymother [125]

Answer:

Multiply the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.

Explanation:

The relationship between pressure, force and area is given by:

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where in this case, p is the air pressure, F is the force exerted and A the area of the tabletop. By re-arranging the equation, we can solve for F, the force exerted:

$p=\frac{F}{A}\\p\cdot A=\frac{F}{A}\cdot A\\pA=F$

So, the correct answer is:

The force exerted on the tabletop can be found by multiplying the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti

liq [111]

Answer:

The speed of water must be expelled at 6.06 m/s

Explanation:

Neglecting any drag effects of the surrounding water we can assume the linear momentum in this case is conserves, that is, the total initial momentum of the octopus and the water kept in it cavity should be equal to the total final linear momentum. That's known as conservation of momentum, mathematically expressed as:

$p_f=p_i$

with Pi the total initial momentum and Pf the final total momentum. The total momentum is the sum of the momentums of the individual objects, in our case the octopus and the mass of water that will be expelled:

$p_{of}+p_{wf}=p_{oi}+p_{wi}$

with Po the momentum of the octopus and Pw the momentum of expelled water. Linear momentum is defined as mass times velocity:

$m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=m_o*v_{oi}+m_w*v_{wi}$

Note that initially the octopus has the water in its cavity and both are at rest before it sees the predator so $v_{oi}=v_{wi} = 0\frac{m}{s}$ :

$m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=0$

We should find the final velocity of water if the final velocity of the octopus is 2.70 m/s, solving for $v_{wf}$ :

$v_{wf}=-\frac{m_o*v_{of}}{m_w}=-\frac{(6.00-1.85)*(2.70)}{1.85}$

$v_{wf}=-6.06\frac{m}{s}$

The minus sign indicates the velocity of the water is opposite the velocity of the octopus.

Technician A says that vehicle-to-vehicle communication results in fewer traffic collisions. Technician B says there are concern

Leto [7]

Answer:

Option C. Both technicians A and B are correct

Explanation:

Vehicle-to-vehicle communications consists of a wireless network where automobiles send messages containing operational information such as speed, location, direction of travel, braking, and loss of stability.

Technician A is correct, there will be fewer traffic collision because each driver will have enough information about traffic flow and such information will be properly managed since they have been known before hand.

By letting out information, such as your location, direction of traffic, etc, there is loss of privacy. This can lead to a security threat on the part of the users
