A lidless shoebox is made of five rectangular pieces of cardboard forming its base and four sides. Its dimensions are: base leng

th L = 48 cm, base width W = 25 cm, and side height H = 11 cm. The base lies in quadrant I of the xy-plane, with its length along the x-axis and its width along the y-axis. The box’s sides extend in the positive z-direction. The cardboard is thin and has an area mass density of s = 0.075 g/cm2.(a) What is the x-coordinate, in centimeters, of the center of mass of the shoebox's base?

Answer:

24 cm

Explanation:

The x coordinate of the center of mass of the base of the shoebox is simply the mid point of the rectangular base of such box. As the box length lies along the x-axis and the whole base is on the first quadrant. Assume that 1 corner of the box is at the origin of the xy-plane, we can calculate the x-coordinate of the center of mass of the base is at

L/2 = 48/2 = 24 cm

When changing a tire sized 195/75 R15 to a 5 percent lower profile, the correct tire size would be _____
valentinak56 [21]

Answer and explanation:

When you are changing a car tire, the most important thing is to keep the total diameter as equal as possible.

The total car tire diameter can be calculated as:

D_{tot orig}=\frac{195 \cdot 75}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''=26.5''

The profile of this tire is 75 (the higher/taller relation), therefore a 5 percent lower profile would be:

pr=0.95·75=71.25

The problem is that the profiles are normalized and the nearest profile available is 70.

If we take a theorical tire with a profile of 71.25:

D_{tot orig}=D_{new}\\\frac{195 \cdot 75}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''=\frac{X \cdot 71.25}{2540 \cdot 2}+15''\\X=205.26

The theorical tire size should be 205/71 R15.

If we look for a real tire size, we should look for a tire with a diameter nearest to 26.5'' and a profile of 70.

The best option for real tire size is: Tire 225/70 R14 (wheel diameter of 26.4'') or 205/70 R15 (wheel diameter of 26.3'').

How would the attractive force between two spheres change if the mass of one sphere was doubled?
Dominik [7]
The force of attraction between two objects can be illustrated using Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
The relation between the different parameters is shown in the attached image.

Now, from the relation, we can deduce that the force between the two objects is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects.

This means that, if the mass of one object is doubled, then the force between the two objects will also be doubled.

An object, initially at rest moves 250m in 17s. What is it's acceleration?
Gekata [30.6K]
With the values you've given, only velocity can be found.
Acceleration is rate of change of velocity

d= 250s
t= 17s

a= d/t
 =\frac{250}{17}
 = 4.7 \frac{m}{s}
