If you start with a substance as a solid, what will happen to the molecules as you add thermal energy (heat)?

Answer:

C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added

Explanation:

The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.

Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas

Ryan is driving home from work and notices a deer leaping onto the road about 25 m in front of his car. He immediately applies t

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

mu = 0.56

Explanation:

The friction force is calculated by taking into account the deceleration of the car in 25m. This can be calculated by using the following formula:

$v^2=v_0^2+2ax\\$

v: final speed = 0m/s (the car stops)

v_o: initial speed in the interval of interest = 60km/h

= 60(1000m)/(3600s) = 16.66m/s

x: distance = 25m

BY doing a the subject of the formula and replace the values of v, v_o and x you obtain:

$a=\frac{v^2-v_o^2}{2x}=\frac{0m^2/s^2-(16.66m/s)^2}{2(25m)}=-5.55\frac{m}{s^2}$

with this value of a you calculate the friction force that makes this deceleration over the car. By using the Newton second's Law you obtain:

$F_f=ma=(1490kg)(5.55m/s^2)=8271.15N$

Furthermore, you use the relation between the friction force and the friction coefficient:

$F_f= \mu N=\mu mg\\\\\mu=\frac{F_f}{mg}=\frac{8271.15N}{(1490kg)(9.8m/s^2)}=0.56$

hence, the friction coefficient is 0.56

The inductance in the drawing has a value of L = 9.4 mH. What is the resonant frequency f0 of this circuit?

yuradex [85]

Answer:

The resonant frequency of this circuit is 1190.91 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Inductance, $L=9.4\ mH=9.4\times 10^{-3}\ H$

Resistance, R = 150 ohms

Capacitance, $C=1.9\ \mu F=1.9\times 10^{-6}\ C$

At resonance, the capacitive reactance is equal to the inductive reactance such that,

$X_C=X_L$

$2\pi f_o L=\dfrac{1}{2\pi f_oC}$

f is the resonant frequency of this circuit

$f_o=\dfrac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC}}$

$f_o=\dfrac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{9.4\times 10^{-3}\times 1.9\times 10^{-6}}}$

$f_o=1190.91\ Hz$

So, the resonant frequency of this circuit is 1190.91 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.
