A small car of mass m and a large car of mass 4m drive along a highway at constant speeds VS and VL. They approach a curve of ra

dius R. The small and large cars have accelerations as and aL respectively, as they travel around the curve. The magnitude of as is twice of that of aL. How does the speed of the small car VS compare to the speed of the large car VL as they move around the curve

4 0

Answer:

v_S=\sqrt{2}v_L

Explanation:

The acceleration experimented while taking a curve is the centripetal acceleration a=\frac{v^2}{r}. Since a_S=2a_L, we have that: \frac{v_S^2}{r_S}=\frac{2v_L^2}{r_L}

They take the same curve, so we have: r_S=r_L=R

Which means: v_S^2=2v_L^2

And finally we obtain: v_S=\sqrt{2}v_L

An ideal gas in a piston is placed in a refrigerator, which removes 413 J of energy from the gas via cooling. The plunger on the
maria [59]

Answer:

The net change in the internal energy of the gas in the piston is -343J

Explanation:

Because heat and workdone are the only means of energy transfer between the system and the surrounding, change in internal energy is given by;

∆E = q + w

q = heat transfer

w = workdone

Because heat is lost by the system, the heat transfer is negative

q = -413J

Because work is done on the system, workdone is positive

w = +70J

∆E = -413J + 70J

∆E = -343J

Does the moon actually change shape as it revolves/rotates around the Earth? Explain your answer
rusak2 [61]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The moon doesn’t change shape on its own.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Shapes of moon that we observe is based on the different perspectives of view from the earth and position of moon with respect to the sun. The changes arise due to the rotation of earth on its own axis as well as the revolution of moon on its orbit. The moon doesn’t have any light of its own.

It just reflects off the light from the sun. Due to tidal locking phenomenon one face of the moon permanently faces the sun. Because of the changes in position of moon with respect to the sun the moon is lighted up variably giving rise to various phases like new moon, full moon, crescent etc.

What is the weight of a feather (mass = 0.0001 kg) that floats through earth's and the moon's atmospheres?
Dvinal [7]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

Acceleration of gravity = 9.81 m/s² on Earth, 1.62 m/s² on the Moon.

The feather's weight is . . .

On Earth:  (0.0001 kg) x (9.81 m/s²) = <em>0.000981 Newton </em>

On the Moon:  (0.0001 kg) x (1.62 m/s²) = <em>0.000162 N</em>

The presence or absence of atmosphere makes no difference.  In fact, the numbers would be the same if the feather were sealed in a jar, or spinning wildly in a tornado, or hanging by a thread, or floating in a bowl of water or chicken soup.  Weight is just the force of gravity between the feather and the Earth.  It's not affected by what's around the feather, or what's happening to it.
