Answer:

Explanation:

The movement of water is able to transport mineral and nutrients such as calcium potassium etc. We can take take the example of ground water as some minerals mixed in ground water, some times those minerals are beneficial and sometimes not. for example if mercury mixes in water, it not good for health whereas copper calcium and other are good when are mixed in an appropriate amount.

no it can't do this why because I think that it is water and it can not go any where.

A 14.0 g wad of sticky clay is hurled horizontally at a 110 g wooden block initially at rest on a horizontal surface. The clay s

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

86.53 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of clay (m) = 14.0 g = 0.014 kg

Mass of block (M) = 110 g = 0.110 kg

Initial speed of block (U) = 0 m/s

Sliding distance (d) = 7.50 m

Coefficient of friction between block and surface (μ) = 0.650

Let the initial speed of clay be 'u' and speed of clay and block just after collision be 'v'.

Now, momentum is conserved just before and just after collision.

Momentum just before collision = $mu + 0 = mu$

Momentum just after collision = $(m + M)v$

Therefore, $mu=(M+m)v$ --------- (1)

Now, using newton's second law and we find the acceleration of the system.

The frictional force is given as:

$f=\mu mg=-ma\\\\a=-\mu g$

Now, using equation of motion, we can find the velocity just after collision.

$0^2=v^2+2ad\\\\v=\sqrt{-2ad}\\\\v=\sqrt{-2\times (-\mu g)\times d}\\\\v=\sqrt{2\mu gd}$

Plug in the given values and find 'v'. This gives,

$v=\sqrt{2\times 0.650\times 9.8\times 7.50}\\\\v=\sqrt{95.55}=9.77\ m/s$

Now, using equation (1) and substituting the given values, we get:

$0.014u=(0.014+0.110)\times 9.77\\\\u=\frac{0.124\times 9.77}{0.014}\\\\u=86.53\ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the clay immediately before impact is 86.53 m/s.

For a maximum superelevation of 0.08 ft/ft and a degree of curve of 4o, calculate the maximum safe speed for the curve assuming

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Superelation= 0.08ft/ft

Given curve= u•

Curve junction factor= 0.13

DR= 5729.57795

R = 5729.57795/D

R = 5729.57795/4

R = 1432.4ft

c + f = V^2/gG

0.08 + 0.13 = V^2 / (32*1432.4)

V^2 = 9625.728 or V = 98 ft/sec

The designed speed for a project considered is a minimum value which means the highway design elements will meet or exceed the standards for the design speed. The maximum safe speed under normal condition is significantly greater than design speed

Learning Goal: To review the concept of conservative forces and to understand that electrostatic forces are, in fact, conservati

CaHeK987 [17]

Explanation:

The electrostatic forces are conservative forces!

The mainly property of the conservative fields is $\vec{\nabla} \times \vec E=\vec 0$

In spherical coordinates the field's expression is:

$\vec E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0 r^2} .\^r$

and the curl expression is:

$\nabla\times \vec E=\frac{1}{r^2{\sin}\,\theta}\left|\begin{matrix}\hat{r} & r\,\hat{\theta} & r\,{\sin}\,\theta\,\hat{\varphi} \\& & \\\frac{\partial}{\partial r} & \frac{\partial}{\partial \theta} & \frac{\partial}{\partial \varphi}\\ & & \\E_r & rE_\theta & r{\sin}\,\theta\, E_\varphi\end{matrix}\right|=(0, 0, 0)$

to find the expression for the potential function associated:

$\vec E=\vec \nabla . V, \Delta V= V_b-V_a=-\int _c \vec E.d\vec l=-\int _c E\^r.dr\^r=-\int _c Edr=\int \limits^a_b \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0 r^2} dr= \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0}.(\frac{1}{r}|^b_a)= \frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon _0}.(\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{a})$
