Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

Mass is one of the most fundamental and important physical quantities, because it is a quantification of the amount of matter.

Mass is also often described as a measure of the inertia of an object, which is the resistance of an object to be moved.

Many laws and equations of nature make use of the concept of mass and the official unit of mass in the international system is the kilogram (Kg).

Why is it important to select a coordinate system when studying motion?

kvv77 [185]

Motion is detected when an object changes its position with respect to a reference point. Coordinate system is basically used to represent motion. A coordinate system uses numbers or coordinates which represent position of the reference points on a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space. The trajectory of a point or line can be studied on a coordinate system which describes various aspects of motion like velocity, acceleration, distance, displacement etc. Coordinate system is important because it helps to choose a starting point and the direction (which will be positive).

Given that water at standard pressure freezes at 0∘c, which corresponds to 32∘f, and that it boils at 100∘c, which corresponds t

Zolol [24]

The temperature difference of 1 K is equivalent to the temperature difference of 1 °C. Therefore, we find the relationship between the change in °F and °C.
A change of 212 - 32 °F is the same as a change of 100 - 0 °C. Thus:
(212 - 32) °F = (100 - 0) °C
1 °C = 1.8 °F
1 K = 1.8 °F

011 10.0 points

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

2.47 m

Explanation:

Let's calculate first the time it takes for the ball to cover the horizontal distance that separates the starting point from the crossbar of d = 52 m.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is constant:

$v_x = v cos \theta = (25)(cos 35.9^{\circ})=20.3 m/s$

and the time taken to cover the horizontal distance d is

$t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{52}{20.3}=2.56 s$

So this is the time the ball takes to reach the horizontal position of the crossbar.

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y=u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

$u_y = v sin \theta =(25)(sin 35.9^{\circ})=14.7 m/s$ is the initial vertical velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

And substituting t = 2.56 s, we find the vertical position of the ball when it is above the crossbar:

$y=(14.7)(2.56) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2.56)^2=5.52 m$

The height of the crossbar is h = 3.05 m, so the ball passes

$h' = 5.52- 3.05 = 2.47 m$

above the crossbar.

In a certain time interval, natural gas with energy content of 19000 J was piped into a house during a winter day. In the same t

Bumek [7]

Explanation:

Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.

Hence, $\Delta E$ = 0. And, as $\Delta E$ = 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.

Therefore,

Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)

= -21000 J

or, |Q| = 21000 J

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.
