Anastasy [175]

Answer:

<h2>25000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 5000 × 5

We have the final answer as

<h3>25000 N</h3>

Describe the evolution of a pulsar over time, in particular how the rotation and pulse signal changes over time.
madam [21]

Answer:

As beams of particles and their associated energy are given off, the pulsar will lose energy slowly, which will decrease the rate of its rotation. The frequency of pulses would therefore decrease, so that fewer pulses are observed in a given time span. The strength of the pulse signal will also decrease so the pulses will become fainter. Eventually, the pulsar should rotate so slowly and have such a low emission of radiation that it would no longer be observable.

Determine which heat transfers below are due to the process of conduction. I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns y
Rudik [331]

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

The road is in direct contact with your skin. Thermal energy from the road will transfer to the bottom of your feet, then to the rest of your body. This is an example of conduction.


II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

Just like in the previous example, the hot leather is in direct contact with your skin (I guess if you're going to drive naked). Thermal energy from the leather will transfe to your skin, then to the rest of your body. This is also conduction.


III) A flame heats the air inside a hot air balloon and the balloon rises.

The flame heats air directly at the bottom of the balloon. The warm air expands and becomes less dense. This will rise and let the unheated, denser air in the balloon fall down toward the flame. This is an example of the convection cycle.


IV) A boy sits to the side of a campfire. He is 10 feet away, but still feels warm.

The campfire heats air directly nearby. The warm air expands and moves away from the fire in all directions, leaving behind unheated, denser air to be heated up. Some of the warm air reaches the boy. This is another example of convection.


The answer is A) 1 and 2.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

0.363999909622

Explanation:

F = Force

m = Mass = 15.6 g

C = Drag coefficient

ρ = Density of air = 1.21 kg/m³

A = Surface area = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

v = Terminal velocity = v=210\ m/s

s = Displacement = 150 m

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

Force is given by

F = ma

F=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow ma=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow C=2\times m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\times\dfrac{1}{\rho Av^2}\\\Rightarrow C=2\times15.6\times 10^{-3}\dfrac{210^2-250^2}{2\times 150}\times\dfrac{1}{1.21\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (11.2\times 10^{-3})^2(210)^2}\\\Rightarrow C=-0.363999909622

The drag coefficient is 0.363999909622 (ignoring negative sign)
