Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo

ntal surface. Lift one end of the surface up and measure the angle the surface makes with the horizontal at the moment the block begins to slide. B. A Drop the block from different heights and measure the time of fall from each height. C. Place the block on a rough horizontal surface. Give the block an initial velocity and then let it come to rest. Measure the initial velocity and the distance the block moves in coming to rest. D. Use a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force.

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.

If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.5 m/s in the opposite directi
Lelu [443]

Answer:

ΔP = 14.5 Ns

I = 14.5 Ns

ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN

Explanation:

The mass of the ball is given as 0.145 kg in the complete question. So, the change in momentum will be:

ΔP = mv₂ - mv₁

ΔP = m(v₂ - v₁)

where,

ΔP = Change in Momentum = ?

m = mass of ball = 0.145 kg

v₂ = velocity of batted ball = 55.5 m/s

v₁ = velocity of pitched ball = - 44.5 m/s (due to opposite direction)

Therefore,

ΔP = (0.145 kg)(55.5 m/s + 44.5 m/s)

<u>ΔP = 14.5 Ns</u>

The impulse applied to a body is equal to the change in its momentum. Therefore,

Impulse = I = ΔP

<u>I = 14.5 Ns</u>

the average force can be found as:

I = ΔF*t

ΔF = I/t

where,

ΔF = Average Force = ?

t = time of contact = 2.5 ms = 2.5 x 10⁻³ s

Therefore,

ΔF = 14.5 N.s/(2.5 x 10⁻³ s)

<u>ΔF = 5.8 x 10³ N = 5.8 KN</u>

Friction always acts____ and in the ____ direction of the motion of an object ​
Fed [463]

Answer:

Friction force always acts tangent to the surface at points of contact. Friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion. There are 2 types of friction: Static friction: If the two surfaces in contact do not move relative to each other, one has static friction.

Since the aluminum bar is not an isolated system, the second law of thermodynamics cannot be applied to the bar alone. Rather, i
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

ΔS total ≥ 0 (ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings)

Explanation:

Assuming that the entropy change in the aluminium bar is due to heat exchange with the surroundings ( the lake) , then the entropy change of the aluminium bar is, according to the second law of thermodynamics, :

ΔS al ≥ ∫dQ/T

if the heat transfer is carried out reversibly

ΔS al =∫dQ/T  

in the surroundings

ΔS surr ≥ -∫dQ/T = -ΔS al → ΔS surr ≥ -ΔS al = - (-1238 J/K) = 1238 J/K

the total entropy change will be

ΔS total = ΔS al + ΔS surr

ΔS total ≥ ΔS al + (-ΔS al) =

ΔS total ≥ 0

the total entropy change will be ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings

A system undergoes a two-step process. In the first step, the internal energy of the system increases by 222 J when 150 J of wor
joja [24]

Answer:0 J

Explanation:

Given

For first step

change in internal Energy of the system is \Delta U_1=222 J

Work done on the system W_1=-150 J

For second step

change in internal Energy of the system is \Delta U_2=123 J

Work done on the system W_2=-195 J

Work done on the system is considered as Positive and vice-versa.

and from first law of thermodynamics

Q=\Delta U+W

for first step

Q_1=222-150=72 J

Q_2=123-195=-72 J

overall heat added=Q_1+Q_2

Q_{net}=72-72 =0

For overall Process Heat added is 0 J

HELP PLS MARKING BRANLIST 100 pts TAKING TEST RN
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

15 m/s^2 The first thing to calculate is the difference between the final and initial velocities. So 180 m/s - 120 m/s = 60 m/s So the plane changed velocity by a total of 60 m/s. Now divide that change in velocity by the amount of time taken to cause that change in velocity, giving 60 m/s / 4.0 s = 15.0 m/s^2 Since you only have 2 significaant figures, round the result to 2 significant figures giving 15 m/s^2
