Answer:

The mass of sprinter is 65 kg.

Explanation:

Force is defined as the push or pull on an object with some mass that causes change in its velocity.

It is also defined as the mass multiplied by the acceleration of the object.

Mathematically,

F=ma

where,

F = force exerted on starting blocks = 100 N

m = mass of the sprinter = ?

a = acceleration of the sprinter = 10 m/s^2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

650 kg.m/s^2=m\times 10m/s^2\\\\m=\frac{650 N}{10 m/s^2}=65kg

Hence, the mass of sprinter is 65 kg.

The relation between force, mass of an object and its acceleration is given by following equation

F = mass of object X acceleration

The unit of Force is Newton (N)

unit of acceleration is ms⁻²

unit of mass if Kg

[all these are SI units]

Mass of object =\frac{Force}{acceleration}

mass of sprinter =\frac{650}{10}=65kg

The density of copper is 8.94 g/cm3. An irregular shaped sample of metal is 14 g and displaces a volume of 2.98 mL. (a) Find the
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Explanation:

<h2>(a).</h2>

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question

mass of metal = 14 g

volume = 2.98 mL = 2.98 cm³

It's density is

density =  \frac{14}{2.98}  \\  = 4.69798657...

We have the answer as

4.70 g/cm³

<h2>(b).</h2>

The metal is not copper since it's density is less than that of copper.

Distinguish between dunes and loess
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Dunes are loose sand hills.

Loess is a compacted wind-blown formation of sediment.

Explanation:

Sand dunes are, as their name implies, made of sand which is itself made of tiny quartz pieces. Sand dunes are present where there is a ready source of broken down sandstone or other type of rock and wind to transport the sand. The dunes are mobile and loose and migrate over time.

Loess comes in vast formations and was created in a very different way. In the last ice age, winds from the north carried sediments loosened and ground by glaciers southwards. There, the sediments accumulated in large formations and became compacted over time.

245 g water sample initially at at 32 oC absorbs 17 kcal of heat. What is the final temperature of water?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:62.66°C or 235.66K

Explanation:Q=McpT, the energy was given in calories so you first convert to Joules by multiplying the value in calories by 4.184J.

17*4.184=71.128kJ.

71.128kJ=mcpT

71.128kJ=245*4.187*(T-Tm)

Tm is the final temperature of the mixture. The T is the temperature given which should be converted to Kelvin by adding 273...T=32+273=305K.

71128J=245*4.187*(305-Tm)

71128=312873.575-1025.815Tm

1025.815Tm=312873.575-71128

1025.815Tm=241745.58

Tm=241745.58/1025.815

Tm=235.66K
