alexandr402 [8]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Gold metal is a noble metal,i.e.,it is a non-reactive metal. As such,it does not form compounds with any other elements naturally. So it is found in its native or pure state in nature.

Heating a metal from room temperature to pouring temperature in a casting operation depends on all of the following properties e
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

(e) thermal expansion

Explanation:

The density, the heat of fusion and the melting temperature of the metal are determining characteristics to take into account to raise the temperature of the metal from room temperature to the melting temperature. Since they will determine the following:

Density: is the relationship between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies in outer space.

Heat of fusion: The enthalpy of fusion or heat of fusion is the amount of energy needed to make a mole of an element that is at its melting point pass from the solid state to the liquid, at constant pressure.

Melting temperature is defined as the temperature at which the phase transition from the solid state to the liquid occurs at normal atmospheric pressure.

While the dilution of metals will only have an influence on the volume it will occupy but not on the heating process

Final exam answers for physical science apex?
Tju [1.3M]
First table:

1. For height, we usually use cm. If it is a must to use the conversion to solve for number 1, we can first convert the ft into m then to cm and then convert the in to cm and then add the values.

5ftx\frac{0.305m}{1ft}  = 1.525mx\frac{100cm}{1m} =152.5cm

then we convert the remaining 2in into cm and add it up:
2inx\frac{2.54cm}{1in}=5.08cm

152.5cm + 5.08cm = 157.58cm or 157.6cm

Another way to do this is to convert the ft to in and add it up to the remaining 2 in then convert to cm. The answer would be more or less the same. 

2. For weight, we will convert lbs to kg. 

105lbsx\frac{1kg}{2.2lbs} =  \frac{105kg}{2.2} = 47.7kg

3. For distance we will convert mi to km. 

1.1mix\frac{1.61km}{1mi} = 1.8km

4. The unit mph is miles per hour and we will want to convert that into kph or kilometers per hour. You will use the same method that you did above to get it. We do not need to convert hours anymore, so it will stay as is.

65 \frac{mi}{hr}x\frac{1.61km}{1mi} = 104.7\frac{km}{hr}

5. Now for the next one it is very straightforward because 1V = 1V no matter where you go. So if the given is 220V then that means that the converted value is also 220V. 

6. Now to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, then all you have to do is use the formula given above and fill in what you know. 

The given is  70°F

°C = \frac{5}{9} (F - 32)
     = \frac{5}{9} (70 - 32)
     = \frac{5}{9} (38)
     = \frac{190}{9}
     = 21.1°C

The second table is very easy, all you need to do is convert the values to scientific notation or the other way around. All you need to do is move the decimal till you have a coefficient that is between 1 to 10 and then count how many times you moved the decimal. That will be the number or the exponent of 10. 

1. $150,000 = $1.5 x 10^5

If you moved the decimal to the left, the exponent will be positive. 

Now the other way around. To convert scientific notation to standard form, just move the decimal the number of places indicated by the exponent of 10. If it is positive, you will move to the right and if it is negative, you will move to the left. 

2. 2.59x10^6 = 2,590,000m

Now notice that the next value is less than 1. This means you will be moving the the decimal to the right to make it have a coefficient of 1 to 10. You need to move it 3 times to the right so that means the exponent will be negative. 

3. 0.005in = 5.0 x 10^(-3)in

Now do not forget to put in your units. In math or even in science the unit is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. 

Hope this helped you and good luck!

4. I drop a pufferfish of mass 5 kg from a height of 5.5 m onto an upright spring of total length 0.5 m and spring constant 3000
KatRina [158]

Answer:

a)  0.28 m or 28 cm is the minimum  height above ground the fish reaches.

b)  at the height of 0.484 m height , the pufferfish will eventually come to rest.

c) There exists  two types of energy remain at the equilibrium point in the system. These are :

Gravitational potential energy  = 23.72J

Spring potential energy   = 0.384 J

Explanation:

Given that :

Mass of the pufferfish m =5kg

initial height of the fish h =5.5m

length of the spring l =0.5m

Spring constant K =3000N/m

a)

Assuming no energy loss to friction, what is the minimum height above the ground that the pufferfish reaches?

Lets assume that the minimum height the fish reaches is = x meters

Now by using the conservation of energy; we realize that :

Initial total energy = final total energy

Gravitational potential energy =

Gravitational potential energy' + Spring potential energy (kinetic energy is zero in both cases)

mgh = mgx + \frac{1}{2}K(l-x)^2

Replacing our given values into the above equation; we have :

(5)(9.8)(5.5) = (5)(9.5)(x) + \frac{1}{2}(3000)(0.5-x)^2

269.5 = 47.5 x + 1500(0.5 -x )²

269.5 = 47.5 x + 1500(0.25 - x²)

269.5 = 47.5 x + 375 - 1500 x²

269.5 - 375 = 47.5 x - 1500 x²

-105.5 = 47.5 x - 1500 x²

-105.5 + 1500 x² - 47.5 x = 0

1500 x² - 47.5 x - 105.5 = 0

By using quadratic equation and taking the positive value;

x = 0.28 m or 28 cm is the minimum height above ground the fish reaches.

b)

At the equilibrium position the weight of fish will be equal to the force applied by the spring thus

mg = kx

substituting  our given values ; we have:

(5)(9.8) = 3000x

x = 61.22

x = 0.016m  : so this is the compression in the spring

Now; to determine the height  the pufferfish gets to before  it eventually come to rest; we have

(0.5-0.016) m = 0.484m

therefore, at the height of 0.484 m height , the pufferfish will eventually come to rest.

c)

There exists  two types of energy remain at the equilibrium point in the system. These are :

Gravitational potential energy  = mgh' = (5)(9.8)(0.484)

= 23.72J

and spring potential energy  

=\frac{1}{2}Kx^2\\ = \frac{1}{2}(3000)(0.016)^2\\= 0.384J
