Hey there Kendrell!

Yes, this is very true, when the car slows down, our bodies will tend to lean forward a little bit, and this is actually due to the "motion of inertia".

Inertia allows for this to happen, this is why in this case, we have this case.

Hope this helps.

2 Magnetism comes from the word
AysviL [449]

Answer:

A Magnesia

Explanation:

The word magnetism comes from the word Magnesia, which is the name for a region in Asia Minor, where fragments of Fe3O4 ore (magnetite) were found, which attracts other metal objects.

Magnetism is a physical phenomenon by which we describe the attractive or repulsive force between materials.

This phenomenon has been known for thousands of years.

Un tubo cilindrico hueco de cobre mide 3 m de longitud tienen un diametro exterior de 4cm y un diametro interior de 2 cm¿cuanto
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

 W = 9.93 10² N

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we must use the concept of density

           ρ = m / V

the tabulated density of copper is rho = 8966 kg / m³

let's find the volume of the cylindrical tube

           V = A L

           V = π (R_ext  ² - R_int ²) L

let's calculate

          V = π (4² - 2²) 10⁻⁴  3

          V = 1.13 10⁻²  m³

         m = ρ V

        m = 8966 1.13 10⁻²

        m = 1.01 10² kg

the weight of the tube

        W = mg

         W = 1.01 10² 9.8

         W = 9.93 10² N

A. What is the RMS speed of Helium atoms when the temperature of the Helium gas is 343.0 K? (Possibly useful constants: the atom
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(a) 1462.38 m/s

(b) 2068.13 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k

K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K

T = absolute temperature of atoms

The K.E is also given as:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

Comparing both equations:

(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT

v² = 3KT/m

v = √[3KT/m]

where,

m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?

Therefore,

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>

(b)

For double temperature:

T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K

all other data remains same:

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>
