Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

object is falling Freely with an odometer

Suppose it falls with zero initial velocity

so distance fallen in time t is given by

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

here u=0 and t=time taken

h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

for t=1 s

h_1=\frac{1}{2}g

for t=2 s

h_2=\frac{1}{2}g(2)^2=\frac{4}{2}g=2g

distance traveled in 2 nd sec=2g-\frac{1}{2}g=\frac{3}{2}g

for t=3 s

h_3=\frac{1}{2}g(3)^2=\frac{9}{2}g

distance traveled in 3 rd sec=\frac{9}{2}g-2g=\frac{5}{2}g

so we can see that distance traveled in each successive second is increasing

You need to build a prototype with machined parts that withstand a saline corrosive environment and temperatures above 200 degre
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Stainless steel

Explanation:

I will try to order the solutions from the least correct to the most correct.

Since a temperature greater than 200 ° F is required, that is to say approximately 93 ° c, <em>Polycaprolactone</em> is the least indicated. Its melting point is approximately 60 ° C, so it would not serve the required application.

On the other hand we have<em> Untreated aluminum</em>, which although it has a melting point higher than the required one, without a zinc and magnesium treatment it will easily oxidize in a salty environment, so it cannot be used in this choice either.

We have to compare the two steels.

The<em> Mild Steel </em>has a better corrosion resistance than the previous ones, but in a long-term cycle it will end up full of corrosion and therefore its properties will be highly affected.

Finally, we have <em>stainless steel</em>, which, as the name implies, contains in some of its variations chromium, zinc or magnesium in its alloys, which makes it highly resistant to corrosion.

In addition its melting point is above 1500 ° c.

The best choice is stainless steel.

A 5.5kg radio is pushed across the table. If the acceleration is 5m/s to the right, find the net force exerted on the radio.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Net force exerted on the radio is 27.5 Newton.

Given:

Mass = 5.5 kg

Acceleration = 5 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

To find:

Force exerted on the radio = ?

Formula used:

F = ma

Where F = net force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion,

F = ma

Where F = net force

m = mass

a = acceleration

F = 5.5 × 5

F = 27.5 Newton

Hence, Net force exerted on the radio is 27.5 Newton.
