Answer:
<em>11.06m/s²</em>
Explanation:
According to Newtons second law of motion
Given
Mass m = 17kg
Fm = 208N
theta = 36 degrees
g = 9.8m/s²
a is the acceleration
Substitute
208 - 0.148(17)(9.8)cos 36 = 17a
208 - 24.6568cos36 = 17a
208 - 19.9478 = 17a
188.05 = 17a
a = 188.05/17
a = 11.06m/s²
<em>Hence the the magnitude of the resulting acceleration is 11.06m/s²</em>
Answer:
(a) work required to lift the object is 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is 1029 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 35 kg
height through which the object was lifted, h = 3 m
(a) work required to lift the object
W = F x d
W = (mg) x h
W = 35 x 9.8 x 3
W = 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is calculated as;
ΔP.E = Pf - Pi
where;
Pi is the initial gravitational potential energy, at initial height (hi = 0)
ΔP.E = (35 x 9.8 x 3) - (35 x 9.8 x 0)
ΔP.E = 1029 J
Answer:
The temperature reported by a thermometer is never precisely the same as its surroundings
Explanation:
In this experiment to determine the specific heat of a material the theory explains that when a heat interchange takes place between two bodies that were having different temperatures at the start, the quantity of heat the warmer body looses is equal to that gained by the cooler body to reach the equilibrium temperature. <u>This is true only if no heat is lost or gained from the surrounding.</u> If heat is gained or lost from the surrounding environment, the temperature readings by the thermometer will be incorrect. The experimenter should therefore keep in mind that for accurate results, the temperature recorded by the thermometer is similar to that of the surrounding at the start of the experiment and if it differs then note that there is either heat gained or lost to the environment.
Answer:
There are two main methods determining a fossils age, relative dating and absolute dating. Relative dating is used to determine a fossils approximate age by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages.

Answer:
<em>b. The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.
