  • since force=massxacceleration
  • therefore acceleration=force/mass
  • the resultant force=the acting force on the object-the frictional force
  • the resultant force=64-36=28N
  • therefore the acceleration=28/14=2m/sec^2

No. She would be doing the same amount of work that way. Work is defined to be equal to the force multiplied by the distance. Carrying two bags at a time would cause her to exert twice the effort, so the total amount of work done in the end would still be the same.

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 680 atm if the density at the surface is 1030 kg/m3. Seawater has
Pie

Answer:

1060.41kg/m^3

Explanation:

Bulk modulus is defined as the relative change in the volume of a body produced by a unit of compressive acting uniformly over its surface:

B=\rho _o \frac{\bigtriangleup P }{\bigtriangleup \rho}

Hence the density of the seawater at a depth of 680atm is calculated as:-

\rho=\rho_o +\bigtriangleup \rho=\rho_o(1+\frac{\bigtriangleup P}{B})\\\\=1030 \times (1+ \frac{(680-1)\times10^5}{2.3\times 10^9})\\=1060.41kg/m^3

What is the concentration of OH– ions at a pH = 6?
makkiz [27]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

1 × 10^-8 M

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

pH is given by the -log[H+] while

pOH is given by the -log[OH-]

But;

pH + pOH = 14

Thus; if pH is 6, then pOH = 8

pOH = 8

-log[OH-] = 8

[OH-] = 10^-8 M

The concentration of OH- ions at a pH of 6 is 1 × 10^-8 M

On a cross-country trip, a couple drives 500 mi in 10 h on the first day, 380 mi in 8.0 h on the second day, and 600 mi in 15 h
Zepler [3.9K]

We know that the average speed is simply the ratio of the total distance travelled over the total duration of the trip.

total distance = 500 mi + 380 mi + 600 mi

total distance = 1,480 mi

 

total time = 10 h + 8 h + 15 h

total time = 33 h

 

So the average speed is therefore:

average speed = 1,480 mi / 33 h

<span>average speed = 44.85 mi / h</span>

What dictates the minimum and maximum pressure allowed for plumbing fixtures?
DENIUS [597]
The answer is: the building codes, which are a set of rules that regulate the conditions that a building must meet. Those requirements are very important to guarantee safety of both the people who are building it and the people who are going to work or live inside of the building in the future
