What happens to the volume of a loaf of bread that is squeezed? The mass? The density?

Physics

1 answer:

nalin [4]3 years ago

Explanation:

The volume of the bread decreases, making the bread appear more compact, and smaller in size. The mass stays the same, it won't change unless part of the bread is removed. The density increases, the air bubbles inside of the bread get squished down, causing the bread to be smaller, and in turn, causing it to be more solid.

I hope this helped!

Thanks!

If A = 5 and C = 13, what is sin x?

lisabon 2012 [21]

<span>By pythagorean theorem then, the vertical side of the right triangle must be 12.
Then if x is the angle between the horizontal side and the hypotenuse, sin(x) = 12/13 but also the anser should be in this sentences.

A 1.50-V battery supplies 0.414 W of power to a small flashlight. If the battery moves 4.93 1020 electrons between its terminals

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

P = VI................ Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, I = Current.

make I the subject of the equation

I = P/V................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 0.414 W, V = 1.50 V

Substitute into equation 2

I = 0.414/1.50

I = 0.276 A

Also,

Q = It............... Equation 3

Where Q = amount of charge, t = time

make t the subject of the equation

t = Q/I.................. Equation 4

From the question,

4.931020 electrons has a charge of (4.931020×1.6020×10⁻¹⁹) coulombs

Q = 7.899×10⁻¹⁹ C

Substitute these value into equation 4

t = 7.899×10⁻¹⁹/0.276

t = 2.86×10⁻¹⁸ seconds

A factory worker pushes a 30.0-kg crate a distance of 4.5 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizontally on

SIZIF [17.4K]

(a) 73.5 N

The velocity of the crate is constant: this means that the acceleration is zero (a=0), so according to Newton's second law

$\sum F = ma$

the resultant of the forces must be zero: $\sum F = 0$ (1)

The motion is along the horizontal direction, so we are only interested in the forces acting along this direction. There are two of them:

$F$ , the push applied by the worker

$F_f=-\mu mg$ , the force of friction, with $\mu=0.25$ being the coefficient of friction, $m=30.0 kg$ being the mass of the crate, and $g=9.8 m/s^2$ . The negative sign is due to the fact that the friction acts in the opposite direction to the motion. Eq.(1) then becomes

$F-\mu mg=0\\F=\mu mg=(0.25)(30.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=73.5 N$

So, this is the force that the worker must apply.

(b) 330.8 J

The work done by the pushing force of the worker on the crate is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F = 73.5 N is the force

d = 4.5 m is the displacement

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement (0 degrees, since they are in same direction)

Substituting, we have

$W=(73.5 N)(4.5 m)(cos 0^{\circ})=330.8 J$

(c) -330.8 J

To calculate the work done by friction, we apply the same formula:

$W=F_f d cos \theta$

where

$F_f = \mu mg=(0.25)(30.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=73.5 N$ is the magnitude of the force of friction

d = 4.5 m is the displacement

$\theta=180^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force of friction and the displacement (it is 180 degrees since the two are into opposite directions)

Substituting, we find

$W=(73.5 N)(4.5 m)(cos 180^{\circ})=-330.8 J$

So, the work done by friction is negative.

(d) 0 J

As before, the work done by any force on the crate is

$W=F_f d cos \theta$

We notice that both gravity and normal force are perpendicular to the displacement: therefore, $\theta=90^{circ}$ , and so

$cos \theta=0$

which means that the work done by both forces is zero.

(e) 0 J

The total work done on the crate is the sum of the work done by the four forces acting on it, so:

$W=W_{push} + W_{friction}+W_{gravity}+W_{normal}=330.8J-330.8J+0+0=0$

And this is in accordance with the work-energy theorem, which states that the variation of kinetic energy of the crate is equal to the work done on it: since the crate is moving at constant velocity, its variation of kinetic energy is zero, as well as the work done on it.

What's the difference and similarity between O2 and 2 O ?

nasty-shy [4]

O2 refers to two oxygen atoms bonded together, while 2 O refers to two oxygen atoms that are not bonded to each other. They both have two oxygen atoms, but in O2, the oxygen atoms are bonded, while in 2O, the atoms are not.
