When an object is dropped, tossed, or kicked, as long as it is not laying on the ground, it accelerates downward, because of the force of gravity acting on it.

Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 2.09-kg object is at +2.97 m, a 2.93-kg object is at +2.53 m, a 2.57-kg

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

x = 0 m

y = 1.02 m

Explanation:

M1 = 2.09 kg

y1 = 2.97 m

M2 = 2.93 kg

y2 = 2.53 m

M3 = 2.57 kg

y3 = 0 m

M4 = 3.92 kg

y5 = -0.496 m

since all objects are situated on the Y-axis, this means the x coordinate of the center of mass is 0.

To find the y coordinate of the center of mass, we apply the equation below.

sum of moment of the objects about the origin = moment of the total mass of objects about the center of mass

M1.y1 + M2.y2 + M3.y3 + M4.y4 = Mt.Y

(2.09 x 2.97) + (2.93 x 2.53) + (2.57 x 0) + (3.92 x -0.496) = (2.09 + 2.93 + 2.57 + 3.92) Y

11.68 = 11.51 Y

Y = 11.68 / 11.51 = 1.02 m

If your speedometer has an uncertainty of 2.5 km/h at a speed of 92 km/h, what is the percent uncertainty

Elis [28]

Answer:

2.7%

Explanation:

Given:

Uncertainty of the speedometer (u)= 2.5km/h

Speed measured at that uncertainty (v) = 92km/h

Percent uncertainty (p) is given as the ratio of the uncertainty to the speed measured then multiplied by 100%. i.e

p = $\frac{u}{v} * 100$ %

p = $\frac{2.5}{92} * 100$ %

p = 2.7%

Therefore, the percent uncertainty is 2.7%

Thermodynamic Processes: An ideal gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of its initial volume. The resulting pressure will

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

Explanation:

The equation of state for ideal gases is described below:

$P\cdot V = n \cdot R_{u}\cdot T$ (1)

Where:

$P$ - Pressure.

$V$ - Volume.

$n$ - Molar quantity, in moles.

$R_{u}$ - Ideal gas constant.

$T$ - Temperature.

Given that ideal gas is compressed isothermally, this is, temperature remains constant, pressure is increased and volume is decreased, then we can simplify (1) into the following relationship:

$P_{1}\cdot V_{1} = P_{2}\cdot V_{2}$ (2)

If we know that $\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = \frac{1}{3}$ , then the resulting pressure of the system is:

$P_{2} = P_{1}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right)$

$P_{2} = 3\cdot P_{1}$

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.
