Carl knows that water moves through different kinds of soil at different rates. How easily water moves through a soil is known a

s permeability. Carl decides to compare the permeabilities of different soil types.
To do this, Carl takes five identical flower pots with holes in the bottom and fills each one with different soil:
rocky, gravely dirt from the side of the road
potting soil from the store
clay soil from a nearby creek
sand from a store
dirt from his own backyard
Carl pours one liter of water into each pot and measures how much water flows out of the bottom in one minute.

Which of the following variables should be kept constant during this experiment?

A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F= 20N and a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

An 8.5 kg crate is pulled 5.1 m up a 30 degree incline by a rope angled 17 degrees above the incline. The tension in the rope is

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1. a $W_t=746.63 J$

b $E_p=212.415 J$

c $W_n=183.96J$

2. $T_e=99.71J$

Explanation:

a). The work done by the tension is:

$W_t=T*dt$

$dt=\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}$

$W_t=140N*\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}$

$W_t=746.63 J$

b). The work done potential of gravity

$E_p=m*g*h$

$h=5.1*sin(17)$

$E_p=8.5kh*9.8*5.1*sin(30)$

$E_p=212.415 J$

c). The work done by the normal force

$W_n=N*d_n$

$d_n=5.1*sin(30)=2.55$

$W_n=8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)*2.55$

$W_n=183.96J$

2. The increase in thermal energy is:

$T_e=F*d$

$F_k=u_k*m*g=0.271*8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)$

$F_k=19.5N$

$T_e=19.55*5.1m$

$T_e=99.71J$

A meter stick moves parallel to its axis with speed of 0.96 c relative to you. What would you measure for the length of the stic

Fed [463]

Answer:

The length of the stick is 0.28 m.

The time the stick take to move is 0.97 ns.

Explanation:

Given that,

Relative speed of stick v= 0.96 c

Speed of light $c= 2.99793\times10^{8}\ m/s$

Proper length of stick = 1 m

We need to calculate the length of the stick

Using formula of length

$\Delta l=\Delta l_{0}\sqrt{(1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2})}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta l=1\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.96)^2c^2}{c^2}}$

$\Delta l=1\sqrt{1-(0.96)^2}$

$\Delta l=0.28\ m$

We need to calculate the time the stick take to move

Using formula of time

$t=\dfrac{\Delta l}{v}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{0.28}{0.96\times(2.99793\times10^{8})}$

$t=9.72\times10^{-10}\ sec$

$t=0.97\ ns$

Hence, The length of the stick is 0.28 m.

The time the stick take to move is 0.97 ns.

Sidana [21]

The circuit change when the wire is added will see a short circuit occur and makes bulbs 1 and 2 turn off but keeps bulbs 3 and 4 lit. Option D. This is further explained below.

<h3>How does the circuit change when the wire is added?</h3>

Generally, Electronic circuits consist of a series of interconnected parts that form a closed loop through which electricity may flow.

In conclusion, If two wires are linked together, a short circuit will develop, cutting power to bulbs 1 and 2. But there is no impact on bulbs 3 and 4. There is no problem with bulbs 3 and 4.
