From tables, the density of mercury is
13545 kg/m^3 at 20°C,
13472 kg/m^3 at 50°C.

Because mass = density * volume, the mass of mercury at 20°C is
m = (13545 kg/m^3)*(0.002 m^3) = 27.09 kg

Let V = volume of mercury at 50°C.
Because the mass of mercury does not change, therefore at 50°C,
(13472 kg/m^3)*(V m^3) = 27.09
V = 27.09/13472 = 0.0020108 m^3

Answer: B. 0.002010812 m³

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 3.0 s . (a) What is the crankshaft's angular acceleration?

Talja [164]

Answer:

75 rotations

Explanation:

f0 = 0, f = 3000 rpm = 50 rps, t = 3 s

(a) use first equation of motion for rotational motion

w = w0 + α t

2 x 3.14 x 50 = 0 + α x 3

α = 104.67 rad/s^2

(b) Let θ be the angular displacement

use second equation of motion for rotational motion

θ = w0 t + 1/2 α t^2

θ = 0 + 0.5 x 104.67 x 3 x 3

θ = 471.015 rad

The angle turn in one rotation is 2 π radian.

Number of rotation = 471.015 / (2 x 3.14) = 75 rotations

A high school physics student is sitting in a seat read-

Nataly_w [17]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the result for the force that the chair exerts on the student is:

The reaction force that the chair exerts on the student's support is equal to the student's weight.

Newton's second law gives the relationship between force, mass and acceleration of bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is is zero equilibrium condition.

∑ F = 0

Where F is the external force.

The free body diagram is a diagram of the forces on bodies without the details of the shape of the body, in the attached we can see a diagram of the forces.

Let's analyze the force on the chair.

$N_{chair} - W_{chair} - W_{student} = 0 \\ \\N_{chair} = W_{chair} + W_{student}$
