Answer: (b)0.000012/k

Explanation:

The linear expansion of the metal rod is given by

$\Delta L= L_0 \alpha \Delta T$

where

$\Delta L=0.090 cm$ is the linear expansion

$L_0 = 80 cm$ is the initial length of the rod

$\alpha$ is the linear expansivity

$\Delta T=93.6^{\circ}C=93.6 K$ is the increase in temperature

By re-arranging the equation, we find the linear expansivity:

$\alpha = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0 \Delta T}=\frac{0.090 cm}{(80 cm)(93.6K)}=0.000012 K^{-1}$

39. A dog runs on a waxed floor at an initial speed of 2 m/s. It slides to a stop with an

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

$v_f=v_0+at$ where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds

Let v1, , vk be vectors, and suppose that a point mass of m1, , mk is located at the tip of each vector. The center of mass for

g100num [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Center of mass is give as

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Where i= 1,2,3,4.....

M = m1+m2+m3 +....

x is the position of the mass (x, y)

Now,

Given that,

u1 = (−1, 0, 2) (mass 3 kg),

m1 = 3kg and it position x1 = (-1,0,2)

u2 = (2, 1, −3) (mass 1 kg),

m2 = 1kg and it position x2 = (2,1,-3)

u3 = (0, 4, 3) (mass 2 kg),

m3 = 2kg and it position x3 = (0,4,3)

u4 = (5, 2, 0) (mass 5 kg)

m4 = 5kg and it position x4 = (5,2,0)

Now, applying center of mass formula

Xcm = (Σmi•xi) / M

Xcm = (m1•x1+m2•x2+m3•x3+m4•x4) / (m1+m2+m3+m4)

Xcm = [3(-1, 0, 2) +1(2, 1, -3)+2(0, 4, 3)+ 5(5, 2, 0)]/(3 + 1 + 2 + 5)

Xcm = [(-3, 0, 6)+(2, 1, -3)+(0, 8, 6)+(25, 10, 0)] / 11

Xcm = (-3+2+0+25, 0+1+8+10, 6-3+6+0) / 11

Xcm = (24, 19, 9) / 11

Xcm = (2.2, 1.7, 0.8) m

This is the required center of mass

Who has the greater velocity, an astronaut who has just completed an orbit of the Earth or you when you have just traveled from

Alik [6]

Answer:

the answer is

Explanation:

constant acceleration

because when the object's velocity is changing then the object is accelerating or decelerating

as acceleration describe changing of velocity so the answer is constant acceleration

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Acceleration = (Change in velocity) / time taken

Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity) / time

As the object velocity changes by the same amount in each second, it means the acceleration is constant.

Why do remote controls for TV’s use infrared waves to communicate?

Delvig [45]

Answer: An IR remote (also called a transmitter) uses light to carry signals from the remote to the device so it can be controlled. It emits pulses of invisible infrared light that correspond to specific binary codes. These codes represent commands, such as power on, volume up, or channel down.
