1 answer:

8 0

A dark-colored (igneous rock,) commonly extrusive from volcanic eruptions and composed primarily of the minerals of calcic plagioclase and pyroxene, and sometimes olivine. Basalt is the fine-grained equivalent of gabbro.

The speed of a 180-g toy car at the bottom of a vertical circular portion of track is 7.75 m/s. If the radius of curvature of th

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

11.28 N toward the center of the track

Explanation:

Centripetal force: This is the force that tend to draw a body close to the center of a circle, during circular motion.

The formula for centripetal force is given as,

F = mv²/r................................ Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass of the toy car, v = velocity, r = radius

Given: m = 108 g = 0.108 kg, v = 7.75 m/s, r = 57.5 cm = 0.575 m

Substitute into equation 1

F = 0.108(7.75²)/0.575

F = 11.28 N

Hence the magnitude and direction of the force = 11.28 N toward the center of the track

An ice skater starts with a velocity of 2.25 m/s in a 50.0 degree direction. After 8.33s, she is moving 4.65 m/s in a 120 degree

Mnenie [13.5K]

The y-component of the acceleration is $0.22 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The y-component of the acceleration is given by

$a_y = \frac{v_y-u_y}{t}$

where

$v_y$ is the y-component of the final velocity

$u_y$ is the y-component of the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

For the ice skater in this problem, we have:

u = 2.25 m/s is the initial velocity, in a direction $\theta=50.0^{\circ}$

v = 4.65 m/s is the final velocity, in a direction $120^{\circ}$

t = 8.33 s is the time elapsed

The y-components of the initial and final velocity are:

$u_y = u sin \theta = (2.25)(sin 50^{\circ})=1.72 m/s\\v_y = v sin \theta = (4.65)(sin 50^{\circ})=3.56 m/s$

So the y-component of the acceleration is

$a_y = \frac{3.56-1.72}{8.33}=0.22 m/s^2$

If the mass of a material is 46 grams and the volume of the material is 14 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?

umka21 [38]

Answer

3.2857 g/cm³

Explanation

Density of a material is the mass of a unit volume of that material. It's SI unit is Kg/m³ but its has other units like g/cm³.

Density = mass/volume

= 46/14

= 3.2857 g/cm³

From the lens equation calculate the position of the following images produced by a convex lens.

fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

(i)

O is the object and I is the image.

The image formed is enlarged and it is erect. So the magnification will be positive (+) and greater than 1.

Refer above image. 1

(ii)

O is the object and I is the image.

The image formed is diminished and erect. So the magnification will be positive (+) and less than1.

Refer above image. 2

(iii)

The image will be formed as the 2F on the other side of the lens and it will be of same of the object.
