Consider eight,eight-cubic centimeter (8 cm3) sugar cubes stacked so that they form a single 2 x 2 x 2 cube. How does the surfac
In-s [12.5K]
To find the surface area of a single cube we first nees to take the cube root of 8cm3 which is 2.

Now we know that the length of each side is 2 and we can find the area of one side by doing 2x2 which is 4.

To find the total surface area of one cube we do 4 times 6 side giving us a total of 24cm2.

To find the total surface area of the 8 individual cubes, we multiply 24cm2 by 8 to give us a total of 192cm2.

Now to find the total surface area of the one large cube, we know that each side of one of the small cubes is 4cm2 and the large cube is set up so that there are two levels of four cubes right on top of each other. So, the total area of each side of the large cube is 4cm2 times 4 which gives us 16cm2.

Then we multiply 16cm2 by 6 sides to give us a total surface area of 96cm2.

The ratio of the surface area of the single large cube comapred to the total surface area of the single cubes is 96:192

We can further simplify this ratio:

96:192

48:96

A helicopter carrying Dr. Evil takes off with a constant upward acceleration of 5.0 m/s2. Secret agent Austin Powers jumps on ju
denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) h=250\ m

b) \Delta h=0.0835\ m

Explanation:

Given:

  • upward acceleration of the helicopter, a=5\ m.s^{-2}
  • time after the takeoff after which the engine is shut off, t_a=10\ s

a)

<u>Maximum height reached by the helicopter:</u>

using the equation of motion,

h=u.t+\frac{1}{2} a.t^2

where:

u = initial velocity of the helicopter = 0 (took-off from ground)

t = time of observation

h=0+0.5\times 5\times 10^2

h=250\ m

b)

  • time after which Austin Powers deploys parachute(time of free fall), t_f=7\ s
  • acceleration after deploying the parachute, a_p=2\ m.s^{-2}

<u>height fallen freely by Austin:</u>

h_f=u.t_f+\frac{1}{2} g.t_f^2

where:

u= initial velocity of fall at the top = 0 (begins from the max height where the system is momentarily at rest)

t_f= time of free fall

h_f=0+0.5\times 9.8\times 7^2

h_f=240.1\ m

<u>Velocity just before opening the parachute:</u>

v_f=u+g.t_f

v_f=0+9.8\times 7

v_f=68.6\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Time taken by the helicopter to fall:</u>

h=u.t_h+\frac{1}{2} g.t_h^2

where:

u= initial velocity of the helicopter just before it begins falling freely = 0

t_h= time taken by the helicopter to fall on ground

h= height from where it falls = 250 m

now,

250=0+0.5\times 9.8\times t_h^2

t_h=7.1429\ s

From the above time 7 seconds are taken for free fall and the remaining time to fall with parachute.

<u>remaining time,</u>

t'=t_h-t_f

t'=7.1428-7

t'=0.1428\ s

<u>Now the height fallen in the remaining time using parachute:</u>

h'=v_f.t'+\frac{1}{2} a_p.t'^2

h'=68.6\times 0.1428+0.5\times 2\times 0.1428^2

h'=9.8165\ m

<u>Now the height of Austin above the ground when the helicopter crashed on the ground:</u>

\Delta h=h-(h_f+h')

\Delta h=250-(240.1+9.8165)

\Delta h=0.0835\ m

An insulated beaker with negligible mass contains 0.250 kg of water at 75.0C. How many kilograms of ice at -20.0C must be droppe
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg

Explanation:

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water

Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C

To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.

Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C

Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg

Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m

Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J

543600 m = 36627.5

m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.

An astronaut takes an object to the moon where there is less gravity. Explain how the mass and weight of the object on the moon
alexandr1967 [171]
The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth
