The independent variable is the time (minutes). The temperature is the dependent variable.

madam [21]

For thermometers to read temperatures correctly, they must be immersed in the substance being measured while reading the temperature. When they are taken out the substance, there is a possibility that the fluid inside would change its level due to the sudden change in the temperature. Thus, giving you an erroneous reading of the temperature.

A thin, metallic spherical shell of radius 0.227 m has a total charge of 6.03 × 10 − 6 C placed on it.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

radius $r=0.227 m$

Charge on surface $Q=6.03\times 10^{-6} C$

Point Charge inside sphere $q=1.15\times 10^{-6} C$

Electric Field at $r=0.735 m$

Treating Surface charge as Point charge and applying Gauss law

$E_{total}A=\frac{q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon _0}$

where A=surface area up to distance r

$E_{total}=\frac{Q+q}{4\pi r^2}$

$E_{total}=\frac{6.03\times 10^{-6}+1.15\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (0.735)^2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}$

$E_{total}=1.194\times 10^{5} N/C$

givi [52]

Answer:0.667 N

Explanation:

Given

It is noticed that Frictional Force is 0.2 N

Coefficient of kinetic Friction $\mu _k=0.3$

We know Friction Force is given by

$f_r=\mu _k\times Normal\ reaction$

therefore

$0.2=\mu _k\times N$

$0.2=0.3\cdot N$

$N=\frac{0.2}{0.3}$

$N=0.667 N$

never [62]

Answer:

Approximately $2.1\; \rm km$ , assuming that $g = -9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ .

Explanation:

Let $t$ denote the time required for the package to reach the ground. Let $h(\text{initial})$ and $h(\text{final})$ denote the initial and final height of this package.

$\displaystyle h(\text{final}) = \frac{1}{2}\, g\, t^2 + h(\text{initial})$ .

For this package:

Initial height: $h(\text{initial}) = 2500\; \rm m$ .
Final height: $h(\text{final}) = 0\; \rm m$ (the package would be on the ground.)

Solve for $t$ , the time required for the package to reach the ground after being released.

$\displaystyle t^{2} = \frac{2\, (h(\text{final}) - h(\text{initial}))}{g}$ .

$\begin{aligned} t &= \sqrt{\frac{2\, (h(\text{final}) - h(\text{initial}))}{g} \\ &\approx \sqrt{\frac{2\times (0\; \rm m - 2500\; \rm m)}{(-9.8\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2})}} \approx 22.588\; \rm s\end{aligned}$ .

Assume that the air resistance on this package is negligible. The horizontal ("forward") velocity of this package would be constant (supposedly at $95\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ .) From calculations above, the package would travel forward at that speed for about $22.588\; \rm s$ . That corresponds to approximately: $95\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1} \times 22.588\; \rm s \approx 2.1 \times 10^{3}\; \rm m = 2.1\; \rm km$ .
