Two sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 5 : 3. If its perimeter is 64 cm, find the lengths of its sides.

True or False: Inertia is the property that every material object has that causes objects to resist changes in its state of moti

goldfiish [28.3K]

That is True because if it resists it means to not do it and if it is motion, that means that it is resisting movement and that is what inertia is.

The scientific definition for inertia is: "a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged"
Glad to help. :)

In 1993, Cuban athlete Javier Sotomayor set the world record for the high jump. The gravitational potential energy associated wi

Katarina [22]

Answer:2.541

Explanation:

Well , Potential Energy = mgh

m=mass = 82

g=acceleration of gravity=9.80m/s^2

h=what we are looking for

PE=mgh

PE/(mg) = h

Substitute in the values:

1970/(82 x 9.8) = h 2.541

A toy car is moving across a table with a velocity of 7.0 m/s and drives off the end. The table is 1.8 m tall. How long will the

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option D - 0.2 s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 7 m/s

Height of table; h = 1.8m

Now,since we want to find the time the car spent in the air, we will simply use one of Newton's equation of motion.

Thus;

h = ut + ½gt²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.8 = 7t + ½(9.8)t²

4.9t² + 7t - 1.8 = 0

Using quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation gives us;

t = -1.65 or 0.22

We can't have negative t value, thus we will pick the positive one.

So, t = 0.22 s

This is approximately 0.2 s

The tallest building in the world, according to some architectural standards, is the Taipei 101 in Taiwan, at a height of 1671 f

Andrej [43]

Answer:

35.14°C

Explanation:

The equation for linear thermal expansion is $\Delta L = \alpha L_0\Delta T$ , which means that a bar of length $L_0$ with a thermal expansion coefficient $\alpha$ under a temperature variation $\Delta T$ will experiment a length variation $\Delta L$ .

We have then $\Delta L$ = 0.481 foot, $L_0$ = 1671 feet and $\alpha$ = 0.000013 per centigrade degree (this is just the linear thermal expansion of steel that you must find in a table), which means from the equation for linear thermal expansion that we have a $\Delta T =\frac{\Delta L }{\alpha L_0}$ = 22.14°. As said before, these degrees are centigrades (Celsius or Kelvin, it does not matter since it is only a variation), and the foot units cancel on the equation, showing no further conversion was needed.
