Answer:

Gain in capital = $ 70.72

Explanation:

Given:

- The price of stocks when purchased P_o = $ 224.84

- The price of stocks when sold P_s = $ 295.56

Find:

what would be your capital gain (loss) on the sale, ignoring commissions

Solution:

- The capital gain or loss on the selling of stocks stems from the difference of buying and selling value of stocks. The original price of stock was P_o and the selling price would be P_s. The difference would be:

                             capital gain = P_s - P_o

                             capital gain =  $295.56 - $224.84

                             capital gain = $ 70.72

- Hence, there would be a gain in capital if sold today for about $ 70.72.

The lubrication of bone joints is a subject of ongoing medical research. Two bones connected at a joint do not touch. The bones
maks197457 [2]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

To measure the effective coefficient of friction in a bone joint, a healthy joint (and its immediate surroundings) can be removed from a fresh cadaver. The joint is inverted, and a weight is used to apply a downward force F⃗ d on the head of the femur into the hip socket. Then, a horizontal force F⃗ h is applied and increased in magnitude until the femur head rotates clockwise in the socket. The joint is mounted in such a way that F⃗ h will cause clockwise rotation, not straight-line motion to the right. The friction force will point in a direction to oppose this rotation.

Draw vectors indicating the normal force n⃗  (magnitude and direction) and the frictional force f⃗ f (direction only) acting on the femur head at point A.

Assume that the weight of the femur is negligible compared to the applied downward force.

Draw the vectors starting at the black dot. The location, orientation and relative length of the vectors will be graded

Solution :

The normal force represented by N is equal to the downward force, $F_d$ which is equal in magnitude but it is opposite in direction.

Also the frictional force acts always to oppose the motion because the bone starts moving in a clockwise direction. The frictional force that will be applied to the right direction so that the movement or the rotation at A is opposed.

Define what is energy and work​
Mashutka [201]

The work-energy principle states that an increase in the kinetic energy of a rigid body is caused by an equal amount of positive work done on the body by the resultant force acting on that body. Conversely, a decrease in kinetic energy is caused by an equal amount of negative work done by the resultant force.

If points a and b are connected by a wire with negligible resistance, find the magnitude of the current in the 12.0 v battery.
Marizza181 [45]
V = I * R
Where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. Using Ohm's law, you require resistance to find the current through the wire. Technically, if the wire has a resistance of 0, you will get infinite current. But this isn't possible. Maybe the negligible resistance refers to the battery's internal resistance - not the wire's resistance.

The temperature inside my refrigerator is about 4 degrees C. If I place a balloon in my fridge that initially has a temperature
maksim [4K]

v

Convert the given temperatures from celsius to kelvin since we are dealing with gas.

To convert to kelvin, add 273.15 to the temperature in celsius.

T1 = 22 + 273.15 = 295.15 k

T2 = 4 + 273.15 = 277.15 k

V1 = 0.5 L

Let's find the final volume (V2).

To solve for V2 apply Charles Law formula below:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

Keeping the mass at 1.0 kg and the velocity at 10.0 m/s, record the magnitude of centripetal acceleration for each given radius
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m = 50 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m = 25 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m = 16.67 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m = 12.5 m/s²

The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m = 10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 1 kg

velocity of the object, v = 10 m/s

different values of the radius, 2.0 m 4.0 m 6.0 m 8.0 m 10.0 m

The centripetal acceleration for the first radius; 2.0 m

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} \\\\a_c_1= \frac{(10)^2}{2} \\\\a_c_1= 50 \ m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration for the second radius; 4.0 m

a_c_2= \frac{(10)^2}{4} \\\\a_c_2= 25 \ m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration for the third radius; 6.0 m

a_c_3= \frac{(10)^2}{6} \\\\a_c_3= 16.67 \ m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration for the fourth radius; 8.0 m

a_c_4= \frac{(10)^2}{8} \\\\a_c_4= 12.5 \ m/s^2

The centripetal acceleration for the fifth radius; 10.0 m

a_c_5= \frac{(10)^2}{10} \\\\a_c_5= 10 \ m/s^2
