What effect does freezing water into a ice cube have on its mass

1 answer:

8 0

The "stuff" (molecules) in water is more tightly packed than in ice, so water has greater density than ice. Don't let the fact that ice is a solid fool you! As water freezes it expands. So, ice has more volume (it takes up more space, but has less density) than water.

You hold a bucket in one hand. In the bucket is a 500 g rock. You swing the bucket so the rock moves in a vertical circle 2.2 m

slavikrds [6]

Answer:v=3.28 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of rock $m=500 gm$

diameter of circle $d=2.2 m$

radius $r=\frac{2.2}{2}=1.1 m$

At highest Point

$mg+N=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

At highest Point N=0 because mass is just balanced by centripetal Force

thus $mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{gr}$

$v=\sqrt{9.8\times 1.1}$

$v=\sqrt{10.78}$

$v=3.28 m/s$

Why does damp soil help excess electrons move

Marina CMI [18]

Explanation:

Because where there is water, energy is conducted, and moves the electrons.
They also move excess electrons because pure water is a poor conductor

An object starts from rest, and accelerates at 2m/s2 for 10s. How far has it gone in that time

blagie [28]

Answer:

100m

Explanation:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$

u=0;t=10sec;a=2m/s²

$s = 0(10) + \frac{1}{2}(2 \times {10}^{2} )$

s=10²;100m

If two bicycles of same masses move at different velocities,it will be easier to stop the bicycle that is moving at lower veloci

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

It is easier to stop the bicycle moving at a lower velocity because it will require a smaller force to stop it when compared to a bicycle with a higher velocity that needs a bigger force.

Explanation:

The question above is related to "Newton's Law of Motion." According to the Third Law of Motion, whenever an object exerts a force on another object (action force), an equal force is exerted against it. This force is of the same magnitude but opposite direction.

When it comes to moving bicycles, the force that stops their movement is called "friction." Applying the law of motion, the higher the speed, the higher the force that is needed to stop it while the lower the speed, the lower the force that is needed to stop it.

car is moving at 40 m/s. At 10 meters the driver spots a deer on the road and instantly steps on the brakes. If the car is 400 k

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

32000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)

0 = 1600 + 20a

Collect like terms

0 – 1600 = 20a

–1600 = 20a

Divide both side by –1600

a = –1600 / 20

a = –80 m/s²

The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.

Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 400 × –80

F = – 32000 N

NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.
