A father is pulling his child on a sled in the snow. According to Newton’s Third Law, the force the father exerts on the sled is

equal to the force the sled exerts on the father but opposite in direction. How is it possible that the father can pull the child and sled forward?

That is because there are other forces like the friction forces that apply differently on both of them. The frictional forces applied to the sled are smaller than they are on the father, for example, so it's possible for him to pull it.

State how much energy is transferred in each of the following cases: 2 grams of steam at 100 degrees Celsius condenses to water
dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When 2 gms of steam condenses to water at 100 degree latent heat of vaporization is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x latent heat of vaporization

= 2 x 2260 = 4520 J

When 2 gms of water  at 100 degree is cooled to ice water at zero degree  heat  is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x specific heat x( 100-0)

= 2 x 4.2 x 100 = 840 J

When 2 gms of water at zero degree  condenses to ice at zero degree latent heat of fusion  is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x latent heat of fusion

= 2 x 334 = 668 J

When 2 grams of steam at 100 degrees Celsius turns to ice at 0 degrees Celsius heat released will be sum of all the heat released as mentioned above ie

4520 + 840 +668 = 6028 J

This question is incomplete

Complete Question

In the United States, a standard letter-sized piece of paper is 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches long. The international standard for a letter-sized piece of paper is different. The international standard is based on SI units: 21.0 cm wide by 29.7 cm long.

a. Convert 21.0 cm to inches. Show your dimensional analysis setup.

b. Convert 29.7 cm to inches. Show your dimensional analysis setup.

c. State the dimensions, in inches, of the international standard for a letter-sized piece of paper.

d. Which piece of paper is longer: a U.S. letter-sized piece of paper, or an international letter-sized piece of paper?

Answer:

a) 8.267721 inches ≈ 8.3 inches

b) 11.6929197 inches ≈ 11.7 inches

c) It's dimensions in inches for the international standard for letter - sized for paper = 8.3 wide inches by 11.7 inches long

d) The International standard letter - sized paper is longer.

Explanation:

a. Convert 21.0 cm to inches. Show your dimensional analysis setup.

1 cm = 0.393701inch

21 cm =

Cross Multiply

21 cm × 0.393701inch/ 1 cm

= 8.267721 inches

Approximately 8.3 inches

b. Convert 29.7 cm to inches. Show your dimensional analysis setup.

1 cm = 0.393701inch

29.7 cm =

Cross Multiply

29.7 × 0.393701 inch/ 1 cm

= 11.6929197 inches

Approximately 11.7 inches

c. State the dimensions, in inches, of the international standard for a letter-sized piece of paper.

The international standard for a letter-sized has dimensions 21.0 cm wide by 29.7 cm long.

Where

21.0cm = 8.267721 inches

≈ 8.3 inches

29.7cm = 11.6929197 inches

≈ 11.7 inches

Hence, it's dimensions in inches = 8.3 inches by 11.7 inches.

d. Which piece of paper is longer: a U.S. letter-sized piece of paper, or an international letter-sized piece of paper?

U.S letter - sized paper = 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches long

International standard letter- sized paper = 8.3 wide inches by 11.7 inches long.

Hence, the International standard letter - sized paper is longer.

Why is it important to know the direction of the force applied to a moving object and the direction in which the object is movin
ELEN [110]
C is correct.  The work-force relation is given by W=F·d, where F is force vector, and d is the displacement vector.  The dot is the dot product, which is a measure of how parallel the two vectors are.  It can be restated as the product of two vector magnitudes times the cosine of the angle between them.  Therefore work is a scalar, not a vector, since the dot product returns a scalar.  
W=Fdcos(\theta)
