Yes that's true they do.

A sample of gas will change its shape and size, to take on the exact shape and size of whatever container you put it in.

A mustang, has an average velocity of 33 m/s while covering a course that is 21 miles long. (1 mile = 1609 m). How long did it t

saw5 [17]

Answer:

t = 1023.9 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The average velocity of a Mustang, v = 33m/s

Distance, d = 21 miles = 33789 m

Let the driver takes t seconds. So,

Speed = distance/time

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{33789}{33}\\\\t=1023.9\ s$

So, it will take 1023.9 seconds to complete the course.

What are the horizontal and vertical components of a lizard’s displacement if it has climbed 7m directly up a tree?

madam [21]

Answer:

The horizontal component is zero.

The vertical component is $7\sin\theta$

Explanation:

Given that,

The lizard climb 7m directly up on a tree.

We know that,

The horizontal component is

$x=\cos\theta$

The vertical component is

$y=\sin\theta$

If the lizard climb 7m directly up on a tree then,

We need to find the components

Using given data

The horizontal component of lizard is

$x=0$

The vertical component is

$y=7\sin\theta$

Hence, The horizontal component is zero.

The vertical component is $7\sin\theta$

A series circuit is composed of two resistors:

WITCHER [35]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.3 Amps

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

A circuit with resistors, R1 and R2

R1 = 7 Ω

R2 = 11 Ω

Voltage = 24 V

We are required to calculate the current in the circuit.

<h3>Step 1: We need to find the effective resistance.</h3>

When resistors are arranged in series, the effective resistance is calculated by;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ..........Rₙ

Therefore;

Total resistance = 7 + 11

= 18 Ω

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the current in the circuit</h3>

From the ohm's law;

V = IR

Rearranging the formula;

I = V/R

Thus;

I = 24 V ÷ 18 Ω

= 1.333 Amps

= 1.3 Amps

Thus, the current in the circuit is 1.3 Amps

Two forces and are applied to an object whose mass is 13.3 kg. The larger force is . When both forces point due east, the object

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, It's important to remember F = ma, and in this problem m = 13.3 kg

This can be reduced to a simple system of equations problem. Now if they are both going the same way then we add them, while if they are going the opposite way we subtract them. So let's call them F1 and F2, with F1 arger than F2. Now, When we add them together F1+F2 = (.723 m/s^2)*13.3kg and then when we subtract them, and have the larger one pushing toward the east, let's call F1 the larger one, F1-F2 = (.493 m/s^2)*13.3kg.

Can you solve this system of equations seeing them like this, or do you need more help?

The period of rotation of Mars is 1 day and 37 minutes. Determine its frequency of rotation in Hertz.

Sholpan [36]

The frequency of rotation of Mars is 0.0000113 Hertz.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Period = 1 day and 37 minutes.

To find the frequency of rotation in Hertz:

First of all, we would convert the the value of period in days and minutes to seconds because the period of oscillation of a physical object is measured in seconds.

<u>Conversion:</u>

1 day = 24 hours

24 hours to minutes = $60$ × $24$ = $1440$ minutes
