Answer:

how much space it takes up in the world

Explanation:

1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. 2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.

A 0.20 kg mass is oscillating at a small angle from a light string with a period of 0.78 s.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

L = 15 cm

Explanation:

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = g(T/2π)²

L = 9.8(0.78/2π)²

L = 0.151027... m

L = 15 cm

Along some shorelines, incoming waves cause the water to simply rise and fall rather that form a surf zone. What does this tell

NARA [144]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Along some shorelines, incoming waves cause the water to simply rise and fall and not form surfs because of the steepness of the shorelines. Long period waves wont form surfs at steep shores because of the breaking and unstability of waves. Wave breaks at the shallow waters. The breaking of the waves depends upon H/L ratio.

How does a force pumb works

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

A force pump can be used to raise water by a height of more than 10m, the maximum height allowed by atmospheric pressure using a common lift pump.

In a force pump, the upstroke of the piston draws water, through an inlet valve, into the cylinder. On the downstroke, the water is discharged, through an outlet valve, into the outlet pipe.

A piece of aluminum has a volume of 1.50 10-3 m3. the coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is β = 69 ✕ 10-6 (°c)-1. the

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

W = 3.12 J

Explanation:

Given the volume is 1.50*10^-3 m^3 and the coefficient of volume for aluminum is β = 69*10^-6 (°C)^-1. The temperature rises from 22°C to 320°C. The difference in temperature is 320 - 22 = 298°C, so ΔT = 298°C. To reiterate our known values we have:

β = 69*10^-6 (°C)^-1 V = 1.50*10^-3 m^3 ΔT = 298°C

So we can plug into the thermal expansion equation to find ΔV which is how much the volume expanded (I'll use d instead of Δ because of format):

$dV = \beta V_{0} dT\\dV = (69*10^{-6})( C)^{-1} * (1.50*10^{-3})m^{3} * (298)C\\dV = 3.0843*10^-5$

So ΔV = 3.0843*10^-5 m^3

Now we have ΔV, next we have to solve for the work done by thermal expansion. The air pressure is 1.01 * 10^5 Pa

To get work, multiply the air pressure and the volume change.

$W = P * dV = (1.01 * 10^5)Pa * (3.0843*10^{-5})m^3\\W = 3.115143J$

W = 3.12 J

Hope this helps!
