Answer:

time

Explanation:

weather is the atmospheric condition of a place over a short period of time, while climate is the weather condition prevailing in an area over a long period of time. From the two definitions above we can see that weather is the condition over a short period of time while climate is over longer periods, therefore the primary difference between them is time.

which object has the most gravitational potential energy? A. an 8 kg book at a height of 3m B. an 5 kg book at a height of 3 m C

astra-53 [7]

I think A is the correct answer because its high is more higher compared to the others, and the mass really does not matter, to know the gravitational potential energy, we need to know how high the object is located because gravity does not show any favor to an object that has more mass or an object that doesnt

What is gibbs paradox?

mr_godi [17]

This leads to a paradox known as the Gibbs paradox, after Josiah Willard Gibbs. The paradox allows for the entropy of closed systems to decrease, violating the second law of thermodynamics. A related paradox is the "mixing paradox".

I got part c right but idk why the other parts are wrong HELP!

dedylja [7]

a) The impulse is 76.5 Ns

b) The average force is 546.4 N

c) The final speed is 31.5 m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is defined as

$J=\int F\Delta t$

where

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the object

$\Delta t$ is the time interval during which the force is applied

If we consider a graph of the force applied vs time, it follows that the impulse exerted is equal to the area under the graph.

Therefore, in this problem, we can calculate the impulse by computing the area under the graph. We have a trapezium, whose bases are

$B=0.14-0 = 0.14s\\b=8-5=3s$

and whose height is

$h=900 N$

Therefore, the area (and the impulse) is

$J=\frac{(B+b)h}{2}=\frac{(0.14+0.03)(900)}{2}=76.5 Ns$

In this problem, the force applied is not constant. However, we can rewrite the impulse also as

$J=F_{avg} \Delta t$

where

$F_{avg}$ is the average force exerted during the whole time $\Delta t$

In this problem we have

J = 76.5 Ns is the impulse (calculated in part a)

$\Delta t = 0.14 s$ is the time interval

Solving for the average force, we find

$\Delta t = \frac{J}{F_{avg}}=\frac{76.5}{0.14}=546.4 N$

According to the impulse theorem, the impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

$J=\Delta p = m(v-u)$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem, we have

J = 76.5 Ns

m = 3.0 kg is the mass

u = 6.0 m/s is the initial velocity

Solving for v, we find the final velocity (and speed):

$v=u+\frac{J}{m}=6.0+\frac{76.5}{3}=31.5 m/s$

A mass hanging from a spring oscillates with a period of 0.35 s. Suppose the mass and spring are swung in a horizontal circle, w

Annette [7]

Answer:

66 rpm

Explanation:

The period of oscillation is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac {m}{k}}$

$\frac {k}{m}=\frac {4\pi^{2}}{T^{2}}$ where T is time period of oscillation which is given as 0.35 s, k s spring constant and m is the mass of the object attached to the spring.
