The acceleration of an object is in the direction of the net force. ... net force doubles, then so does the size of the acceleration

Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass. Masses always remain the same. Newton's Second Law of Motion: Force = mass x acceleration The acceleration of an object is: a) directly proportional to the net force acting on the object. ... c) inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Which of these chemical equations demonstrates the law of conservation of mass as it applies to the combustion of ethane? A. 2 C
WINSTONCH [101]

A. 2 C₂ H₆ + 7 O₂ → 4 C O₂ + 6 H₂ O


according to law of conservation of mass , the total mass of reactants side must be same as the total mass of product side. so we need to check if each atom in the equation has same number on both side of the equation or not.

in this equation , we have

4 atoms of carbon left and 4 atoms of carbon on right

12 atoms of hydrogen on left and 12 atoms of hydrogen on right

14 atoms of oxygen on left and 14 atoms of oxygen on right

When you cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, energy is transferred. Identify the three different ways t
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The three ways thermal energy is transferred are;

1) Conduction

2) Convection

3) Radiation

Explanation:

1) The conduction of the heat from the open flame to the marshmallow is through the direct contact of the flame with the marshmallow, such that the flame the region of the combustion reaction, that produces light and heat touches the marshmallow

2) The convection process is the transfer of heat from the rising heated combustion products, as well as the heated air that rises from the flame

3) The radiation heat transfer is the transfer of the heat from the fire to the marshmallows directly by the heat the moves in the form of electromagnetic waves at temperatures above 1000 K, without the need for a medium, such that the marshmallow can be heated by the heat coming from side of the flame.

A man is standing on the edge of a 20.0 m high cliff. He throws a rock horizontally with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s. How lo
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

t = 4.08 s

R = 40.8 m

Explanation:

The question is asking us to solve for the time of flight and the range of the rock.

Let's start by finding the total time it takes for the rock to land on the ground. We can use this constant acceleration kinematic equation to solve for the displacement in the y-direction:

  • Δx = v_0 t + 1/2at²

We have these known variables:

  • (v_0)_y = 0 m/s
  • a_y = -9.8 m/s²
  • Δx_y = -20 m

And we are trying to solve for t (time). Therefore, we can plug these values into the equation and solve for t.

  • -20 = 0t + 1/2(-9.8)t²
  • -20 = 1/2(-9.8)t²
  • -20 = -4.9t²
  • t = 4.08 sec

The time it takes for the rock to reach the ground is 4.08 seconds.

Now we can use this time in order to solve for the displacement in the x-direction. We will be using the same equation, but this time it will be in terms of the x-direction.

List out known variables:

  • v_0 = 10 m/s
  • t = 4.08 s
  • a_x = 0 m/s

We are trying to solve for:

  • Δx_x = ?

By using the same equation, we can plug these known values into it and solve for Δx.

  • Δx = 10 * 4.08 + 1/2(0)(4.08)²
  • Δx = 10 * 4.08
  • Δx = 40.8 m

The rock lands 40.8 m from the base of the cliff.

Most reactive non-metals in order?
kompoz [17]
Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.   <span>

When a mass of 0.350 kg is attached to a vertical spring and lowered slowly, the spring stretches 12.0 cm. The mass is now displ
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The period is T =  0.700 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The mass is m =  0.350  \ kg

     The extension of the spring is  x =  12.0 \ cm = 0.12 \ m

       

The spring constant for this is mathematically represented as

       k  = \frac{F}{x}

Where F is the force on the spring which is mathematically evaluated as

       F  =  mg  =  0.350 * 9.8

       F  =3.43 \ N

So  

    k  = \frac{3.43 }{ 0.12}

    k  = 28.583 \ N/m

The period of oscillation is mathematically evaluated as

      T =  2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

substituting values

     T =  2  *  3.142*  \sqrt{\frac{0.35 }{28.583} }

     T =  0.700 \ s
