Describe ehat happens at the molecular level during meilting

1 answer:

3 0

The molecules of a solid vibrate faster so that they start spreading out to become a liquid. This energy makes them vibrate faster so the bonds between molecules can't interact all that well anymore creating more distance. The stronger the bonds between the molecules the higher the energy (temperature) has to be to get them away from each other. Hope I didn't confuse you too much!

A ferry coming into port is sailing at 12 m/s. It takes 2.5km to come to rest in the port. Calculate the deceleration of the fer

pogonyaev

Answer: -0.0288 m/s^2

Explanation:

Let's suppose that the ferry decelerates at a constant rate A (deceleration is an acceleration in the opposite direction to the original motion of an object)

Then the acceleration equation of the ferry will be:

a(t) = -A

(the negative sign is because this acceleration is in the opposite direction with respect to the movement of the ferry)

To get the velocity equation of the ferry, we need to integrate with respect to the time, t, we will get:

v(t) = -A*t + v0

where v0 is the initial velocity of the ferry, v0 = 12m/s.

v(t) = -A*t + 12m/s

For the position equation of the ferry we need to integrate again over time:

p(t) = (-A/2)*t^2 + (12m/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial position of the ferry, in this case, it can be zero, because it will depend on where we put the origin on our coordinate axis.

then p0 = 0m

P(t) = (-A/2)*t^2 + (12m/s)*t

The ferry will come to rest at the moment when it's velocity is equal to zero, this will happen when:

v(t) = 0m/s = -A*t + 12m/s

We need to find the value of t.

A*t = 12m/s

t = (12m/s)/A

Now we can replace this in the position equation because we know that the ferry needs 2.5 km or 2500 meters to come to rest.

p( (12m/s)/A) = 2500m = (-A/2)*( (12m/s)/A)^2 + (12m/s)*((12m/s)/A)

2500m = (-72 m^2/s^2)/A + (144m^2/s^2)/A

2500m = (72 m^2/s^2)/A

2500m*A = (72 m^2/s^2)

A = (72 m^2/s^2)/2500m = 0.0288 m/s^2

and the acceleration of the ferry was -A, then the acceleration of the ferry is:

-0.0288 m/s^2

A car slows from 27 m/s to 5 m/s with a constant acceleration for 6.87 s. What is the car’s acceleration?

Kobotan [32]

In this case, the movement is uniformly delayed (the final rapidity is less than the initial rapidity), therefore, the value of the acceleration will be negative.

1. The following equation is used:

a = (Vf-Vo)/ t

a: acceleration (m/s2)

Vf: final rapidity (m/s)

Vo: initial rapidity (m/s)

t: time (s)

2. Substituting the values in the equation:

a = (5 m/s- 27 m/s)/6.87 s

3. The car's acceleration is:

a= -3.20 m/ s<span>^2</span>

Help with speed problems #1-3

-Dominant- [34]

1. Each plot represents the meters traveled by both the Hare and the Tortoise over a certain period of time (minutes).

2. The Tortoise lines show it lines is steadily increasing over a period of time. So as more time elapses the faster the tortoise becomes it travels more meters. The Tortoise line shows steady acceleration.

3. The Hare in the first 5 minutes had a rapid fast advancement up to 40 meters. But for the 5-20 mins. period the Hare did not move at all. Its speed stayed at the same place. But towards the end 20-25 mins. marks the Hare started moving again. At the end the Hare at first had a rapid acceleration but stopped for a long time then it sped up briefly.

The answers to your questions are as written below:

The objects that represents a negatively charged particle is : Image B
The object that represents a positively charged molecule is : Image A
The object that represents an uncharged molecule is : Image C
The object the will not move when in an electric fied is : Image C

<h3>Different types of charges molecules</h3>

A negatively charged molecule move inwards when placed in an electric field while positively charged molecule placed in a electric field will move outwards the electric field.

A neutral/uncharged molecule will remains still when placd in an elctric field due to the absence of charges.

When the ignition is first turned on a click noise is heard from under the hood of a vehicle equipped with ETC. Technician A say

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Technician A says that this is the normal operation of the ETC self -test is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An engine control unit (ECU), also widely referred to as an engine control module (ECM), is a type of electronic control device that controls an internal combustion engine with a series of actuators to ensure maximum engine performance.

It achieves so by reading values from a multitude of sensors within the engine bay, translating data using multidimensional feedback maps (the so-called lookup tables) and modifying the actuators.

Mechanically fixed and dynamically regulated by mechanical and pneumatic means, air-fuel combination, ignition time, and idle speed were before ECUs.

As soon as the system gets battery voltage, after ignition is turned, the efi computer makes a self-test of all the actuators and sensors, included the ETC.
