You pull your little sister across a flat snowy field on a sled. Your sister plus the sled have a mass of 22 kg. The rope is at

an angle of 40 degrees to the ground. As you pull with a force of 31 N, the sled travels a distance of 53 m. How much work do you do?

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of sled, m = 22 kg

Force of pull, F = 31 N

distance move, d = 53 m

Angle between force and distance, θ = 40°

The formula for the work done is

W = F x d x Cos θ

W = 31 x 53 x cos 40

W = 1258.6 J

Unless indicated otherwise, assume the speed of sound in air to be v = 344 m/s. A pipe closed at both ends can have standing wav
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

68.8 Hz

137.6 Hz, 206.4 Hz

Explanation:

L = Length of tube = 2.5 m

v = Velocity of sound in air = 344 m/s

Distance between nodes is given by

L=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}+m\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\lambda(n+1)}{2}=L\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{2L}{n+1}

Where n = 0, 1, 2, 3, ...

Making n+1 = n

\lambda=\dfrac{2L}{n}

where n = 1, 2, 3 .....

For fundamental frequency n = 1

\lambda=\dfrac{2\times 2.5}{1}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=5\ m

Frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{344}{5}\\\Rightarrow f=68.8\ Hz

The fundamental frequency is 68.8 Hz

First overtone

2f=2\times 68.8=137.6\ Hz

Second overtone

3f=3\times 68.8=206.4\ Hz

The overtones are 137.6 Hz, 206.4 Hz

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.05 m/s. If the roof is pitched at
vekshin1

1) Time in the air: 0.78 s

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A horizontal motion with constant horizontal velocity

- A vertical motion with constant downward acceleration of

g=-9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

The initial vertical velocity is

u_y = u sin \theta = (3.05)(sin(-40^{\circ}))=-1.96 m/s

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.

The vertical position of the ball is given by

y(t) = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 4.50 m is the initial heigth of the ball when it starts falling down

The ball reaches the ground when y = 0, so we have:

0 = 4.50 -1.96t-4.9t^2

This is a second-order equation; solving for t, we get

t = -1.18 s

t = 0.78 s

We discard the negative solution since it has no physical meaning, so we can say that the ball spent 0.78 s in the air.

2) Horizontal distance: 1.83 m

For this second part of the problem, we just have to consider the horizontal motion of the ball.

As we said previously, the motion of the ball along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion with constant velocity, which is given by

v_x = u cos \theta = (3.05)(cos (-40.0^{\circ}))=2.34 m/s

where u = 3.05 m/s is the initial speed and \theta the angle of projection.

For a uniform motion, we can use the following relationship between distance covered and velocity:

d=v_x t

and substituting t = 0.78 s, we find the total distance travelled along the horizontal direction by the ball before reaching the ground:

d=(2.34)(0.78)=1.83 m

The age of the universe is around 100,000,000,000,000,000s. A top quark has a lifetime of roughly 0.000000000000000000000001s. W
Maslowich

Answer:

10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.

Explanation:

You need to determine how many quark top lives there have been in the history of the universe, that is, what is the age of the universe divided by the lifetime of a top quark. Expressed in a formula, this is:

t\frac{Age of the universe}{Lifetime of a top quark}

Yo know that the "Age of the universe" is 100,000,000,000,000,000  which can also be expressed as 10¹⁷ s .

You also know that the "Lifetime of a top quark" is 0.000000000000000000000001 which can also be expressed as 10⁻²⁴ s.

Then t=\frac{10^{17} }{10^{-24} }

Recalling that the result of dividing two powers of the same base is another power with the same base where the exponent is the subtraction of the initial exponents, it is possible to calculate this division as follows:

t=10^{17-(-24)}

t=10^{17+24}

<u><em>t=10⁴¹ s</em></u>

So <u><em>10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.</em></u>

Elements that typically give up electrons CHECK ALL THAT APPLY
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B. have a lower ionization energy

D. are metals

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest unit comprising of matter that forms all chemical elements. Thus, atoms are basically the building blocks of matters and as such determines or defines the structure of a chemical element.

Generally, atoms are typically made up of three distinct particles and these are protons, neutrons and electrons.

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

Valency can be defined as a measure of the combining power of a chemical element with other atoms to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Typically, valency is measured by the amount of hydrogen atoms that a chemical element can combine with or displace to form a molecule or chemical compound.

Ionization energy can be defined as the minimum energy required to remove or detach an electron from a neutral atom in a gaseous state.

Generally, the ionization energy of chemical elements tend to increase from left to right across a period on the periodic table. This increase is due to the fact that the atomic radius of chemical elements generally decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon) i.e from left to the right of the periodic table. Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

This ultimately implies that, atoms with relatively large atomic radii tend to have a low electron affinity and a low ionization energy.

In conclusion, chemical elements that typically give up electrons are metals because their outermost shell contains excess electrons and have a lower ionization energy.

Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy without a(n) _____________ (medium/electric field).
KATRIN_1 [288]
Medium.
Medium is matter, and electromagnetic waves do not need matter to travel. Just like the sun, its plasma light travels across space to reach us.
