Substance A has a higher heat capacity than does substance B, and substance B has a higher heat capacity than does substance C.

If you add the same amount of heat to all three, which order shows the proper temperature increase for the three substances?
A. Temperature of C will increase first, then B, then A.
B. Temperature of A will increase first, then B, then C.
C. Temperature of B will increase first, then C, then A.

A < B < C

C will increase faster than B which is faster than A

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis depends on the time according to the equation x = ct2 - bt3, where x is in me

Sav [38]

Answer:

(a): $\rm meter/ second^2.$

(b): $\rm meter/ second^3.$

(c): $\rm 2ct-3bt^2.$

(d): $\rm 2c-6bt.$

(e): $\rm t=\dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

Explanation:

Given, the position of the particle along the x axis is

$\rm x=ct^2-bt^3.$

The units of terms $\rm ct^2$ and $\rm bt^3$ should also be same as that of x, i.e., meters.

The unit of t is seconds.

(a):

Unit of $\rm ct^2=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm c= meter/ second^2.$

(b):

Unit of $\rm bt^3=meter$

Therefore, unit of $\rm b= meter/ second^3.$

(c):

The velocity v and the position x of a particle are related as

$\rm v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dx}(ct^2-bt^3)\\=2ct-3bt^2.$

(d):

The acceleration a and the velocity v of the particle is related as

$\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(2ct-3bt^2)\\=2c-6bt.$

(e):

The particle attains maximum x at, let's say, $\rm t_o$ , when the following two conditions are fulfilled:

$\rm \left (\dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0.$
$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Applying both these conditions,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0\\2ct_o-3bt_o^2=0\\t_o(2c-3bt_o)=0\\t_o=0\ \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ 2c=3bt_o\Rightarrow t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

For $\rm t_o = 0$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6\cdot 0=2c$

Since, c is a positive constant therefore, for $\rm t_o = 0$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}>0$

Thus, particle does not reach its maximum value at $\rm t = 0\ s.$

For $\rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}$ ,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6b\cdot \dfrac{2c}{3b}=2c-4c=-2c.$

Here,

$\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}$

Thus, the particle reach its maximum x value at time $\rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.$

Earthquakes are caused by movement of the Earth's crust. What causes the Earth's crust to move?

fomenos

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other. This movement is called plate motion, or a tectonic shift.

Four particles are in a 2-d plane with masses, x- and y- positions, and x- and y- velocities as given in the table below: what i

Arte-miy333 [17]

I attached the picture of the missing table.
Center of mass is the point such that if you apply force to it, the system would move without rotating.
We can use following formula to calculate the center of mass:
$R=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ir_i$
Where M is the sum of the masses of all particles.
Part 1
To calculate the x coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_x=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ix_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_x=0.96m$
Part 2
To calculate the y coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_y=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iy_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_y=-0.84m$
Part 3
We will calculate speed along x and y-axis separately and then will add them together.
$v_x=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_x_i}{M}$
$v_y=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_y_i}{M}$
Total velocity is:
$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}$
Once we calculate velocities we get:
$v_x=-1.08\frac{m}{s}\\ v_y=-0.03\frac{m}{s}\\ v=\sqrt{(-1.08)^2+(-0.03)^2}=1.08\frac{m}{s}$
Part 4
Because origin is left to our center of mass(please see the attached picture) placing fifth mass in the origin would move the center of mass to the left along the x-axis.
Part 5
If you place fifth mass in the center of the mass nothing would change. The center of mass would stay in the same place.
