Answer: incomplete supply of oxygen

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a fuel is reacted with excess supply of oxygen to result into complete oxidation of fuel to give carbon dioxide and water.

Example of complete combustion :

C+O_2 \rightarrow CO_2

Incomplete combustion happens when the supply of oxygen is limited and thus fuel can not be completely oxidized , thus forming carbon monoxide.

Example of incomplete combustion :

C+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow CO

The velocity of a free falling ball at different time intervals on unknown planet is shown in Figure 1.24.
dsp73

Answer:

a1 = (V2 - V1) / 1 s = 3.75 m/s^2

a2 = (V2 - V1) / (t2 - t1) = (7.5 - 3.75) / 1 s = 3.75 m/s^2

a3 = (V2 - V1) / (t2 - t1) = (7.5 - 3.75) / 1 s = 3.75 m/s^2

A) a = (a1 + a2 + a3) / 3 = 3.75 m/s^2

v = a (t2 - t1)

B) after    1 sec    v = 3.75 m / sec^2 * 1 sec = 3.75 m/s

    after   2 sec     v = v0 + a t = 3.75 m/s + 3.75 m/s^2 * 1 s = 7.5 m/s

C)  The velocity increases proportionaly to the time

D) One factor depends on the variation of the acceleration due to gravity because of different positions of measurement (on earth)

A much larger factor is due to air resisance of the air on the falling object

An object moving north with an initial velocity of 14 m/s accelerates 5 m/s2 for 20 seconds. What is the final velocity of the o
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Final velocity of the object(v) = 114 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 14 m/s

Accelerates (a) = 5 m/s²

Time taken = 20 seconds

Find:

Final velocity of the object(v) = ?

Computation:

According to 1st law of motion.

⇒ v = u +at

⇒ v = 14 + (5)(20)

⇒ v = 14 + 100

⇒ v = 114 m/s

Final velocity of the object(v) = 114 m/s

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Once the fridge is moving you are still applying the same push force but now the opposing friction (now kinetic) force is less.
