Answer:

It depends on how you use the spoon...

if you are keeping one end of the spoon and pressing other end, the force you provide is supported by the force due to gravity... Hence it is easy to open this way :)

F + G ... Where F is the force you provide and G is the force due to gravity.

Answer:

the spoon is longer making the vector large hence the torque is increased making it easy to open the lid

We decided to make an iced latte by adding ice to a 200 mL hot latte at 45 °C. The ice starts out at 0 C. How much ice do we nee

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

m = 77.75 g

Explanation:

Here we know that at equilibrium the temperature of the system will be 10 degree C

so heat given by hot latte = heat absorbed by the ice

now we have

heat given by latte = $m s\Delta T$

$Q_1 = (200)(4.186)(45 - 10)$

$Q_1 = 29302 J$

now heat absorbed by ice is given as

$Q_2 = mL + ms\Delta T$

$Q_2 = m(335 + 4.186(10 - 0))$

$Q_2 = m(376.86)$

now by heat balance we have

$Q_1 = Q_2$

$29302 = m(376.86)$

$m = 77.75 g$

It has been observed that electrical connectors manufactured by Jolt Electrical Supply Company last an average of 18.2 months an

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Jolt can expect to replace 160 units.

Explanation:

given data:

standard deviation 1.7

average lfe of connectors = 18.2 months

number of connectors = 5000

$z(19) = \frac{(19-18.2)}{1.7}$

z(19) = 0.4706

P(x< 19) = P(z< 0.4706)

P(x< 19) = 0.6810 from z table

therefore 68.1% fails within 19 months.

hence 0.3190 {100-68.1} will fail during that period.

number of unit of Jolt that need to be replace, on average is 0.319*500 = 160 units.
