On a hypothetical scale X The ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.
arlik [135]

Answer:

The reading of Y is -10°.

Explanation:

For scale X, the ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 120 - 40 = 80

For scale X, the ice point and steam points are -30° and 130° respectively.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 130 - (-30) = 160

Comparing both scales:

One unit of scale X = x

One unit of scale Y = y

Scale X has 80 divisions while scale Y has 160

80x = 160y

x = 2y

50° in scale X = 10x + ice point in X scale

10 divisions in Y scale = 20y

Reading of Y scale = ice point of Y + 20y

= -30° + 20°

= -10°

Wegener developed he hypothesis that Earth's landmasses had once been fused together, and hen slowly broke apart in a process ca
ivanzaharov [21]

Solution: C. Pangea

The hypothesis of Continental drift suggests that in past, there was only one landmass on the Earth -Pangaea which drifted apart due to movement of plate tectonics causing earthquake. This hypothesis is supported by many evidences which includes presence of similar fossils on different landmasses, common land features such as widespread presence of glacial sediments etc.

An ion's position vector is initially r with arrow = 7.0i hat â 7.0j + 1.0k, and 5.0 s later it is r with arrow = 7.0i hat + 7.0
harkovskaia [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Shown in the explanation

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Position vector of a  particle at a given instant is given by:

\vec{r}=x\hat{i}+y\hat{j}+z\hat{k}

On the other hand, the average velocity is the change in the particle’s position vector divided by time interval:

\vec{v}=\frac{\Delta \vec{r}}{\Delta t}=\frac{\vec{r_{2}}-\vec{r_{1}} }{t_{2}-t_{1}} \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ \\ \vec{r_{1}}: Initial \ position \\ \\ \vec{r_{2}}: Final \ position \\ \\ t_{1}:Initial \ time \\ \\ t_{2}:Final \ time

So we have:

\vec{r_{1}}=7\hat{i}+7\hat{j}+1\hat{k} \\ \\ \vec{r_{2}}=7\hat{i}+7\hat{j}+8\hat{k} \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ \Delta \vec{r} = \vec{r_{2}}-\vec{r_{1}}=7\hat{i}+7\hat{j}+8\hat{k}-(7\hat{i}+7\hat{j}+1\hat{k}) \\ \\ \Delta \vec{r}=7\hat{k} \\ \\ \\ We \ also \ know: \\ \\ \Delta t=5s

Finally, the average velocity is:

\vec{v}=\frac{\Delta \vec{r}}{\Delta t} \\ \\ \\ \vec{v}=\frac{7\hat{k}}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{\vec{v}=\frac{7}{5}\hat{k} \ units/s}

(A) What is the maximum tension possible in a 1.00-millimeter-diameter nylon tennis racket string?
attashe74 [19]

Complete Question

(A) What is the maximum tension possible in a 1.00- millimeter-diameter nylon tennis racket string?

(B) If you want tighter strings, what do you do to prevent breakage: use thinner or thicker strings? Why? What causes strings to break when they are hit by the ball?

The  tensile  strength of the nylon string is  600*10^{6} \  N/m^2

Answer:

A

   T = 471.3 \  N

B

 To prevent breakage the thickness of the string is increased

  String breakage when the racket hit the ball is as a result of the string not being thick enough to withstand the increase in tension

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  diameter is  d =  1.00 \ mm  =  0.001 \  m  

       The  tensile strength of the nylon string is \sigma =  600 *10^{6} \  N/m^2

  Generally the radius is mathematically evaluated as

     r=  \frac{d}{2}

=>    r =  \frac{0.001}{2}

=>     r =  0.0005 \  m

The cross sectional area is mathematically represented as

     A = \pi  r^2

=>   A =  3.142  *  (0.005)^2

=>    A =  7.855*10^{-7}\  m^2

Generally the tensile strength of nylon is mathematically represented as

      \sigma  = \frac{T}{ A }

Where T is the tension on the maximum tension on the string

 So  

           T =  \sigma  *  A

=>          T =  600*10^{6} *  7.855*10^{-7}

=>         T = 471.3 \  N

Form the equation above  we  see that

        T  \  \alpha \  A

So if the tension is  increased to prevent breakage the thickness of the string is increased(i. e the cross-sectional  area )

String breakage when the racket hit the ball is as a result of the string not being thick enough to withstand the increase in tension
