Suppose you are driving in a convertible with the top down at constant speed. You point a rifle straight upward and fire it. In

Answer:

(c) in the barrel of the rifle

Explanation:

When we are moving in a convertible with constant speed so as per inertia all the objects are moving with same speed as that the speed of convertible.

So here we can say that bullet when shot from the rifle then its speed is same as that of convertible in horizontal direction

So here we can say that if air friction is absent then bullet will move same horizontal distance as the distance moved by you in the convertible

so after it it will reach again at the same position then the displacement of you and bullet is same in horizontal direction so we can say that correct answer will be

(c) in the barrel of the rifle

A 300-kg bear grasping a vertical tree slides down at constant velocity. the friction force between the tree and the bear is:___
Nady [450]

3000 N of friction exists between the bear and the tree.

The bear goes down at a constant speed, thus there is no acceleration. The forces add up to zero. As a result, upward friction and downward weight result in zero  

i.e.,

F-mg=0

F = mg

F = (300 kg)/10 m/s^{2} (gravitational acceleration)

3000 N frictional force equals F.

How does friction force work?

  • Friction is the force that prevents two solid objects from rolling or sliding over one another. Even though frictional forces, such as the traction required to walk without slipping, may be advantageous, they can also be a significant hindrance to motion.

Between solid surfaces, there are three basic types of friction:

  • Rolling
  • Sliding.
  • Static.                                                                                                                   They are graded from strongest to weakest. Fluid friction happens when liquids or gasses are mixed together.

The resistivity of gold is 2.44 × 10-8 Ω · m at room temperature. A gold wire that is 1.8 mm in diameter and 11 cm long carries
tester [92]
Power in a wire where current is flowing can be calculated from the product of the square of the current and the resistance. Resistance is equal to the product of resistivity and length divided by the area of the wire. We do as follows:

Resistance  =  2.44 × 10-8 ( 0.11) / (π)(0.0009)^2 = 1.055x10^-3 <span>Ω

P = I^2R = .170^2 (</span>1.055x10^-3 ) = 3.048x10^-5 W

Air temperature in a desert can reach 58.0°C (about 136°F). What is the speed of sound (in m/s) in air at that temperature?
Veronika [31]

The approximate speed of sound in dry (0% humidity) air, in meters per second, at temperatures near 0 °C, can be calculated from

c_{air} = (331.3+0.606 \upsilon)

Here

\upsilon = Temperature in Celsius

Replacing with our values we have that

\upsilon=58\° C

c_{air} = (331.3+0.606*58)

c_{air} = 366.1m/s

Therefore the speed of sound in air at that temperature is 366.1m/s
