Answer:

Maximum speed, v = 36 m/s                                                          

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of the curved road, r = 120 m

Road is at an angle of 48 degrees. We need to find the maximum speed of stay on the curve in the absence of friction. On a banked curve, the angle at which it is cant is given by :

tan\theta=\dfrac{v^2}{rg}

g is the acceleration due to gravity  

v=\sqrt{rg\ tan\theta}

v=\sqrt{120\times 9.8\times \ tan(48)}

v = 36.13 m/s

or

v = 36 m/s

So, the maximum speed to stay on the curve in the absence of friction is 36 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Density: Two blocks, A and B, are put in a tank of water. Block A has a density of 1.21 g/cm³. Block B has a density of 1.37 g/c
stira [4]

Answer:

Block A

Explanation:

Block A will float higher in the water compared to the second Block.

The density of water is 1g/cm³.

According to the principle of floatation "an object that floats in a liquid will displace equal amount of fluid to the weight of the object".

A body will become more submerged in water if it has more density because density is the mass per volume of  body.

An object with a higher density than another will sink in the liquid of the one with lesser density.

  • Object A has lesser density and will float higher up and displace very little water.
  • Object B has higher density and will be more submerged.

If 2.40 g of KNO3 reacts with sufficient sulfur (S8) and carbon (C), how much P-V work will the gases do against an external pre
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

-112.876J

Explanation:

In order to solve this question, we would need to incorporate Stoichiometry, which involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data.

Here's a balanced equation for the reaction:

16KNO_3(s) + 24C(s) + S_8(s)    \to 24CO_2(g) + 8N_2(g) + 8K_2S(s)

Let us define P - V work as;

w_{pv} = - P_{external}  \triangle Volume

where  \triangle (Volume) = (V_{final} - V_{initial})

External pressure is given as  1.00atm , therefore the work solely depends on the change in volume and since the reactants are solids, none of the reactants contribute to the volume. Hence,  V_i = 0.

To find the volume of the products, we need to first find the amount of moles of the product made from  2.40_gKNO_3, using the molar mass of  KNO_3  which is 101.1032 g/mol  

2.40_gKNO_3 . {\frac{1molKNO_3}{101.1032_g}} = 0.0237molKNO_3

Now let us convert moles of  KNO_3  into moles of CO_2 and N_2  using the stoichiometric ratios from our balanced equation of the reaction.

0.0237molKNO_3 . {\frac{24molCO_2}{16molKNO_3}} = 0.0356molCO_2

0.0237molKNO_3 . {\frac{8molN_2}{16molKNO_3}} = 0.01185molN_2

K_2S is not factored into the volume calculation because it is a solid.

Now let us also convert the moles of  CO_2  and  N_2 into grams using their respective molar masses.

0.0356molCO_2 . {\frac{44.01_g}{1molCO_2}} = 1.567_gCO_2

0.01185molN_2 . {\frac{28.014_g}{1molN_2}} = 0.332_gN_2

We will now proceed to convert grams into volume using the density values provided.

1.567_gCO_2 . {\frac{1L}{1.830_g}} = 0.856LCO_2

0.332_gN_2 . {\frac{1L}{1.165_g}} = 0.285LN_2

Summing up the two volumes, we get the final volume

0.856L + 0.258L = 1.114L = V_f

Plugging everything into the w_{pv} equation, we get:

w_{pv} = -1atm(1.114L - 0L) = -1.114L.atm

Finally, let us convert L.atm into joules using the conversion rate of;

1L.atm = 101.325J\\-1.114L.atm. {\frac{101.325J}{1L.atm}} = -112.876J

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The force generated by a single muscle fiber can be increased by increasing the frequency of action potentials

Explanation:

The force generated by a muscle fiber is the result of the shortening of the skeletal muscle, and this force is also know as muscle tension. The larger motor units shorten along with the smaller units to produce the muscle force. The time lapsed between the beginning of the action potential in the muscle and the beginning of the contraction is the latent period. Action potential is the result of the difference electrical potential as a result of passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle or nerve cell.

Analogue signals transmit information for such things as _____________.
ivann1987 [24]

Transmission of information in ANY form can be done digitally
or analoguely.

Beginning about 30 years ago, everything slowly started changing
to digital.  Today, all commercial satellite communication, all optical
fiber communication, all internet communication, all computer
communication, all commercial cable communication, all commercial
television, and much of the telephone system, are all digital. 

On your computer ... .pdf,  .jpg, .mp3  etc.  are all digital methods of
moving and storing information.

AM and FM radio are an interesting subject.  They're all still analog.
They could easily be changed to all digital, and it would be a big
improvement, both for the broadcasters and for the listeners. 
BUT ... every AM and FM radio that anybody has now would be
obsolete.   Every single radio would either need to be replaced,
OR you'd need to add a digital decoder to every radio, like we
had to do with our TV sets a few years ago when television
suddenly became all digital.  With AM and FM radios, the decoders
would be bigger, and would cost more, than most of the radios.

And that's why commercial radio broadcasting is still analog.
