Answer:

An object with 0 acceleration is accelerating in a direction that is opposite to a stated positive direction.

Explanation:

Acceleration is not always based on speeding up or slowing down (a constant speed is no acceleration at all), it's also based on direction. If you state that an object is positively accelerating when you throw it upwards, then it's negatively accelerating when it's falling even though it's velocity is increasing.

it is accelerating in a direction that is opposite to a stated positive direction

Explanation:

it's going backwards if positive is up then negative is down in ur case it's the opposite direction of forward

how long does it take a 750watt heater operating at full rating to rais the temperature of 1kg of water From 40°C to 70°C {S.H.C

siniylev [52]

Answer:

168 seconds (2 min 48 s)

Explanation:

Find the heat absorbed by the water.

q = mCΔT

q = (1 kg) (4200 J/kg/K) (70°C − 40°C)

q = 126,000 J

Power is energy per time.

P = q / t

750 W = 126,000 J / t

t = 168 s

It takes 168 seconds (2 min 48 s).

The concept of critical density is just like the idea of escape velocity for a projectile launched from the earth. An object lau

ikadub [295]

Answer:

v = √ 2 G M/ $R_{e}$

Explanation:

To find the escape velocity we can use the concept of mechanical energy, where the initial point is the surface of the earth and the end point is at the maximum distance from the projectile to the Earth.

Initial

Em₀ = K + U₀

Final

$Em_{f}$ = $U_{f}$

The kinetic energy is k = ½ m v²

The gravitational potential energy is U = - G m M / r

r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth

How energy is conserved

Em₀ = $Em_{f}$

½ mv² - GmM / $R_{e}$ = -GmM / r

v² = 2 G M (1 / $R_{e}$ – 1 / r)

v = √ 2GM (1 / $R_{e}$ – 1 / r)

The escape velocity is that necessary to take the rocket to an infinite distance (r = ∞), whereby 1 /∞ = 0

v = √ 2GM / $R_{e}$

Calculate the mass (in g) of 346 cm³ of polythene. The density of polythene is 0.95 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

M = 328.70g

Explanation:

From the given values:

V = 346 cm³

M of 1 cm³ of Polythene = 0.95g or 95/100g

Solve:

M = (95×346)

= 32870

100

M = 328.70g

A gas at 5.00 atm pressure was stored in a tank during the winter at 5.0 °C. During the summer, the temperature in the storage a

saw5 [17]

Answer:

a) 5.63 atm

Explanation:

We can use combined gas law

The combined gas law combines the three gas laws:

Boyle's Law, (P₁V₁ =P₂V₂)
Charles' Law (V₁/T₁ =V₂/T₂)
Gay-Lussac's Law. (P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂)

It states that the ratio of the product of pressure and volume and the absolute temperature of a gas is equal to a constant.

P₁V₁/T₁ =P₂V₂/T₂

where P = Pressure, T = Absolute temperature, V = Volume occupied

The volume of the system remains constant,

So, P₁/T₁ =P₂/T₂

a) $\frac{5}{278} =\frac{P_2}{313} \\\\P_2=\frac{5*313}{278}\\ P_2 = 5.63 atm$
