Which meteorites are the most useful for defining the age of the solar system? Why?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

meteorite is a piece of interplanetary debris that lives its fiery drops during a through the earth's atmosphere and strikes the surface of the earth.

Explanation:

the meteorites which are most useful for the determination of the age of the solar system are the primitive meteorites. they consist light of colored or grey silicates mixed with metallic grains. the parent bodies of these meteorites are also mostly believed to be pieces asteriods left after they formed in the solar system.

Un vas plin cu lichid cântăreşte 175kg. Ceea ce reprezintă de 5 ori masa vasului gol. Ştiind că volumul interior al vasului este
Mariana [72]

a) Density of the liquid: 823.5kg/m^3

b) Weight of the liquid: 1372 N

Explanation:

Translation of the text:

<em>"A full tank with liquid weighs 175kg. Which is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel. Knowing that the inside volume of the vessel is 0.17kl, calculate: </em>

<em>a) the density of the liquid; </em>

<em>b) the weight of the liquid."</em>

a)

We know that the full tank with liquid has a total mass of M = 175 kg. We can write the total mass as

M=m_L + m_V (1)

where

m_L is the mass of the liquid

m_V is the mass of the vessel

We also know that the total mass M is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel, so we have:

M=5m_V\\m_V=\frac{M}{5}=\frac{175}{5}=35 kg

which is the mass of the empty vessel.

Therefore, we can find the mass of the liquid only using (1):

m_L=M-m_V=175-35=140 kg

The density of the liquid is given by

d=\frac{m}{V}

where

m = 140 kg (mass of the liquid)

V = 0.170 kL = 170 L = 0.170 m^3 (volume of the liquid, which is equal to the volume of the vessel)

So we get

d=\frac{140}{0.170}=823.5kg/m^3

b)

The weight of a body is given by

F=mg

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

For the liquid in this problem, we have

m = 140 kg (mass)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration due to gravity)

Therefore, its weight is

F=(140)(9.8)=1372 N

Explain the following defects of a simple electric cell:
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The two major defects of simple electric cells causes current supplied to be for short time. These defects are: polarization and local action.

a. Polarization: This is a defect caused by an accumulation of hydrogen bubbles at the positive electrode of the cell. It can be prevented by the use of vent, using a hydrogen absorbing material or the use of a depolarizer.

b. Local Action: This is the gradual wearing away of the electrode due to impurities in the zinc plate. It can be controlled by the amalgamation of the zinc plate before it is used.

As a mass on a spring moves farther from the equilibrium position, how do the velocity, acceleration, and force change
Umnica [9.8K]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

m =  the mass of the object
x = the distance of the object from the equilibrium position at time t.
v = the velocity of the object at time t
a = the acceleration of the object at time t
A =  the amplitude ( the maximum distance) of the mass from the equilibrium
        position

The oscillatory motion of the object (without damping) is given by
x(t) = A sin(ωt)
where
ω =  the circular frequency of the motion
T =  the period of the motion so that ω = (2π)/T

The velocity and acceleration are respectively
v(t) = ωA cos(ωt)
a(t) = -ω²A sin(ωt)

In the equilibrium position,
x is zero;
v is maximum;
a is zero.

At the farthest distance (A) from the equilibrium position,
x is maximum;
v is zero;
a is zero.

In the graphs shown, it is assumed (for illustrative purposes) that
A = 1 and T = 1.

A block of mass 500g is pulled from rest on ahorizontal frictionless bench by a steady force F and travels 8m in 2s find the acc
Korvikt [17]

<u>We are Given:</u>

Mass of the block (m) = 500 grams or 0.5 Kg

Initial velocity of the block (u) = 0 m/s

Distance travelled by the block (s) = 8 m

Time taken to cover 8 m (t)= 2 seconds

Acceleration of the block (a) = a m/s²

<u>Solving for the acceleration:</u>

From the seconds equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2* (at²)

<em>replacing the variables</em>

8 = (0)(2) + 1/2(a)(2)²

8 = 2a

a = 4 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the block is 4 m/s²
