The statement that is the most true regarding the states of matter is the first statement.

A. Most matter on Earth exists as a solid, liquid, or gas.

This is correct since most of the matter on Earth exists in those 3 states, meanwhile plasma is not a state that most of matter on earth is found in since it is mostly associated to stars and the external galactic regions.

Therefore, B is incorrect.

C is false, since almost of all of the matter on earth can transform and change through each of the 3 states of matter, solid, liquid, and gas.

D is false since most of the matter in universe is actually made out of plasma instead of a liquid. In fact, over 99% of the known universe's matter is said to consist of plasma.

A 36.0 kg box initially at rest is pushed 5.00 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 130

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(a) W = 650J

(b) Wf = 529.2J

(d) W = 0J

(e) ΔK = 120.8J

(f) v2 = 2.58 m/s

Explanation:

(a) In order to find the work done by the applied force you use the following formula:

$W=Fd$ (1)

F: applied force = 130N

d: distance = 5.0m

$W=(130N)(5.0m)=650J$

The work done by the applied force is 650J

(b) The increase in the internal energy of the box-floor system is given by the work done of the friction force, which is calculated as follow:

$W_f=F_fd=\mu Mgd$ (2)

μ: coefficient of friction = 0.300

M: mass of the box = 36.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

$W_f=(0.300)(36.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.0m)=529.2J$

The increase in the internal energy is 529.2J

(c) The normal force does not make work on the box because the normal force is perpendicular to the motion of the box.

$W = 0J$

(d) The same for the work done by the normal force. The work done by the gravitational force is zero because the motion of the box is perpendicular o the direction of the gravitational force.

(e) The change in the kinetic energy is given by the net work on the box. You use the following formula:

$\Delta K=W_T$ (3)

You calculate the total work:

$W_T=Fd-F_fd=(F-F_f)d$ (4)

F: applied force = 130N

Ff: friction force

d: distance = 5.00m

The friction force is:

$F_f=(0.300)(36.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)=105.84N$

Next, you replace the values of all parameters in the equation (4):

$W_T=(130N-105.84N)(5.00m)=120.80J$

$\Delta K=120.80J$

The change in the kinetic energy of the box is 120.8J

(e) The final speed of the box is calculated by using the equation (3):

$W_T=\frac{1}{2}M(v_2^2-v_1^2)$ (5)

v2: final speed of the box

v1: initial speed of the box = 0 m/s

You solve the equation (5) for v2:

$v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{2W_T}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(120.8J)}{36.0kg}}=2.58\frac{m}{s}$

The final speed of the box is 2.58m/s

The engine starter and a headlight of a car are connected in parallel to the 12.0-V car battery. In this situation, the headligh

stepladder [879]

Answer:

The total power they will consume in series is approximately 2.257 W

Explanation:

The connection arrangement of the headlight and the engine starter = Parallel to the battery

The voltage of the battery, V = 12.0 V

The power at which the headlight operates in parallel, $P_{headlight}$ = 38 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in parallel, $P_{kick \ starter}$ = 2.40 kW

We have;

P = V²/R

Where;

R = The resistance

V = The voltage = 12 V (The voltage is the same in parallel circuit)

For the headlight, we have;

R₁ = V²/ $P_{headlight}$ = 12²/38 = 72/19

R₁ = 72/19 Ω

For the kick starter, we have;

R₂ = V²/ $P_{kick \ starter}$ = 12²/2.4 = 60

R₂ = 60 Ω

When the headlight and kick starter are rewired to be in series, we have;

Total resistance, R = R₁ + R₂

Therefore;

R = ((72/19) + 60) Ω = (1212/19) Ω

The current flowing, I = V/R

∴ I = 12 V/(1212/19) Ω = (19/101) A

We note that power, P = I²R

In the series connection, we have;

$P_{headlight}$ = I² × R₁

∴ $P_{headlight}$ = ((19/101) A)² × 72/19 Ω = 1368/10201 W ≈ 0.134 W

The power at which the headlight operates in series, $P_{headlight, S}$ ≈ 0.134 W

$P_{kick \ starter}$ = ((19/101) A)² × 60 Ω = 21660/10201 W ≈ 2.123 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in series, $P_{kick \ starter, S}$ ≈ 2.123 W

The total power they will consume, $P_{Total}$ = $P_{headlight, S}$ + $P_{kick \ starter, S}$

Therefore;

$P_{Total}$ ≈ 0.134 W + 2.123 W = 2.257 W

Which BEST describes what happens when light reaches opaque materials?

kati45 [8]

B) no light pass through

Explanation:

An opaque material is a material that does not allow light to pass through. Opaque materials are the most common materials, they do not allow light to pass through.

All opaque materials will cast shadows along their path when there is a screen.
Transparent materials allows light to pass through for example glasses.
Translucent materials allows light to go through partially.
