What volume (in liters) of gasoline has a total heat of combustion equal to the energy obtained in part (a)? (see section 17.6;

antiseptic1488 [7]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L

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

Volume = mass/density

Mass = 0.0565 Kg,

Density = 900 kg/m³

= 0.0565 kg/ 900 kg /m³

= 6.3 × 10^-5 M³

but; 1000 L = 1 m³

Hence, <u>volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L</u>

In the Daytona 500 auto race, a Ford Thunderbird and a Mercedes Benz are moving side by side down a straightaway at 71.0 m/s. Th

elena55 [62]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Thunderbird is 995.157 meters behind the Mercedes</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given that all the cars were moving at a speed of 71 m/s when the driver of Thunderbird decided to take a pit stop and slows down for 250 m. She spent 5 seconds in the pit stop.

Here final velocity $v=0 \ m/s$

initial velocity $u= 71 m/s$ distance

Distance covered in the slowing down phase = $250 m$

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$a= \frac {(v^2-u^2)}{2s}$

$a = \frac {(0^2-71^2)}{(2 \times 250)}=-10.082 \ m/s^2$

$v=u+at$

$t= \frac {(v-u)}{a}$

$= \frac {(0-71)}{(-10.082)}=7.042 s$

$t_1=7.042 s$

The car is in the pit stop for 5s $t_2=5 s$

After restart it accelerates for 350 m to reach the earlier velocity 71 m/s

$a= \frac {(v^2-u^2)}{(2\times s)} = \frac{(71^2-0^2)}{(2 \times 370)} =6.81 \ m/s^2$

$v=u+at$

$t= \frac{(v-u)}{a}$

$t= \frac{(71-0)}{6.81}= 10.425 s$

$t_3=10.425 s$

total time= $t_1 +t_2+t_3=7.042+5+10.425=22.467 s$

Distance covered by the Mercedes Benz during this time is given by $s=vt=71 \times 22.467= 1595.157 m$

Distance covered by the Thunderbird during this time= $250+350=600 m$

Difference between distance covered by the Mercedes and Thunderbird

= $1595.157-600=995.157 m$

Thus the Mercedes is 995.157 m ahead of the Thunderbird.

When objects exchange charge, why do we say it's the negative charge that moves and not the positive?

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It is said that the negative charge moves because the electrons in the atoms of any object are taken or given to the atoms of another object.

Explanation:

The atom is made up of protons, electrons and neutrons. The number of protons is exactly the same to the number of electrons for a certain element. For example, hydrogen: it has a proton, and therefore, an electron.

The electron has a negative charge. The proton has a positive charge. And the neutron has no charge, so it is neutral. While the atom has the same number of protons and electrons, it will not be electrically charged.

An example of how a charge exchange occurs between two objects is through the case of rubbing. This makes the atoms of the two objects close enough that there is an electron transfer, causing any of the objects to gain or lose electrons as a consequence of each other interaction. In the case of transferring electrons, the atom will have a greater number of protons, so it will be positively charged. When the atom receive electrons, it will have a greater number of electrons, so it will be negatively charged.

Therefore, since it is the electrons that move from one atom to another, then it is the negative charge that moves (<em>characterized by the electrons</em>) and not the positive charge (<em>characterized by the protons</em>).
