Kate gathered 3 of the same size made of different materials: glas, clear plastic, and aluminum painted black. She placed on the

window sill in the sun for an hour and then measured the warmth of the air in each box. Which of the following best describes the purpose of the experiment? A)To relate the type of box material to the warmth of air within the box. B)to relate the type of box material to the mass of the box. C) to relate the amount of time a box is exposed to sunlight to the warmth of air within the box. D) to relate the size of the box to the warmth of air within the box.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>To relate the type of box material to the warmth inside the box </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

3 boxes are made with three different materials glass, plastic and Aluminium. Thermal conductivity is different for different materials. thermal conductors allow easy flow of heat through them and insulators allow minimal or no flow of heat through them.

Thus the amount by which an object gets heated up depends on the value of its conductivity. In this experiment, glass and plastic are insulators and aluminium is a conductor. Among glass and plastic, plastic is a better insulator.

<em>Thus the heat contained in the boxes will be of the order </em>Aluminium>glass>plastic.

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

  • Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
  • According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
  • This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

       F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N  (1)

  • In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

      F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N  (2)

⇒    169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N  (3)

  • This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
  • Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47  N (4)

A student is swimming south applying a force of 256 N. The water exerts a westward force of 104 N. If the student has a mass of
grigory [225]

Answer:

a=2.9\ m/sec^2

Explanation:

<u>Net Forces and Acceleration</u>

The second Newton's Law relates the net force F_r acting on an object of mass m with the acceleration a it gets. Both the net force and the acceleration are vector and have the same direction because they are proportional to each other.

\vec F_r=m\vec a

According to the information given in the question, two forces are acting on the swimming student: One of 256 N pointing to the south and other to the west of 104 N. Since those forces are not aligned, we must add them like vectors as shown in the figure below.

The magnitude of the resulting force F_r is computed as the hypotenuse of a right triangle

|F_r|=\sqrt{256^2+104^2}

|F_r|=276.32\ Nw

The acceleration can be obtained from the formula

F_r=ma

Note we are using only magnitudes here

\displaystyle a=\frac{F_r}{m}

\displaystyle a=\frac{276.32Nw}{95.3Kg}

\boxed{a=2.9\ m/sec^2}
