IRISSAK [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Plastic can be used for various purposes due to the fact that it can be molted into different shapes and sizes. It is a good packaging and transport material. Due to it's sterile nature does not support microbial growth thus used in healthcare items. It is inexpensive and can be affordable by all.

If a car skids 66 ft on wet concrete, how fast was it moving when the brakes were applied? (Round your answer to the nearest who
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

If a car skids 66 ft on wet concrete, it will move at 243 ft/s when the brake is applied.

Explanation:

To determine how fast the car was moving, after skidding, the formula below is used:

V = √32*fd

V is the car's speed (ft/s)

d is skid length (ft) = 66 ft

f is the coefficient of friction determined by the material the car was skidding on.

Coefficient of friction for wet concrete is 0.65

V = √32*fd

V = √32 *0.65* 66

V = 242.679 ft/s ≅ 243 ft/s (nearest whole number)

If a car skids 66 ft on wet concrete, it will move at 243 ft/s when the brake is applied.

What is threshold frequency
spayn [35]
Threshhold frequency is defined as the minimum light frequency necessary to start photo-electric emission from the surface. This frequency is just effecient enough to emit electrons without any additional force or energy. this minimum frequency creates the necessary result that is sought by the person. The photo electric emission for certain metals can occir with threshhold frequency. The importance of this threshhold frequency lies in the fact that this has been used to create numerous instruments like amplifiers for use of people.

Sound travels faster through rigid material like steel rather than through spongy materials like rubber. Why?
drek231 [11]
<span>since sound travels using mechanical waves and needs a material medium to propagate and since mechanical waves spread through vibrations ...and since hard materials have their atoms packed closely....they need to vibrate with a smaller amplitude to pass on the wave....thus sound travels faster in a denser medium than a less dense one.</span>

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?
fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as V_1, the relation with the final volume as

V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1

V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1

V_2 = 1.00163V_1

Initial temperature = 21.1\°C

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)

Where \gamma is the volume coefficient of copper 5.1*10^{-5}/C

1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))

1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)

0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761

T = 53.0608\°C

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C

How much heat must be added to make a 5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC that has its temperature go up 10 degrees? Q =
zlopas [31]

Answer:

100 Joule

Explanation:

Amount of heat in agiven body is given by Q = m•C•ΔT

where m is the mass of the body

c is the specific heat capacity of body. It is the amount of heat stored in 1 unit weight of body which raises raises the temperature of body by 1 unit of temperature.

ΔT is the change in the temperature of body

___________________________________________

coming back to problem

m = 5g

C = 2J/gC

since, it is given that temperature of body increases by 10 degrees, thus

ΔT = 10 degrees

Using the formula for heat as given

Q = m•C•ΔT

Q = 5* 2 * 10  Joule= 100 Joule

Thus, 100 joule heat must be added to  a  5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC to raise its temperature go up by 10 degrees.
