Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Each student exert a force of F=400 N

Let mass of car be m

there are 18 students who lifts the car

Total force by 18 students F=18\times 400=7200 N

therefore weight of car W=7200

mass of car m=\frac{W}{g}

m=\frac{7200}{9.8}=734.69 kg

(b)7200 N \approx 1618.624\ Pound-force

734.69 kg\approx 1619.71 Pounds

An object with mass 3.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring stiffness constant k = 270 N/m and is executing simple harmonic m
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Part a)

A = 0.066 m

Part b)

maximum speed = 0.58 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that angular frequency of spring block system is given as

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

here we know

m = 3.5 kg

k = 270 N/m

now we have

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{270}{3.5}}

\omega = 8.78 rad/s

Part a)

Speed of SHM at distance x = 0.020 m from its equilibrium position is given as

v = \omega \sqrt{A^2 - x^2}

0.55 = 8.78 \sqrt{A^2 - 0.020^2}

A = 0.066 m

Part b)

Maximum speed of SHM at its mean position is given as

v_{max} = A\omega

v_{max} = 0.066(8.78) = 0.58 m/s

What is the maximum number of unpaired d electrons that an atom or ion can possess?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

The d subshell has 5 orbitals, each capable of holding a maximum of two electrons. Hund's rule tells us that every orbital in a sub-level must first be singly occupied by electrons before any orbital is doubly occupied. Therefore five electrons will fill the five orbitals within the d subshell.

Which of the following describes the reactants of a chemical reaction
AlekseyPX

The options attached to the question are given below:

A. The substances that are formed.

B.  The substances that are changed.  

C. The starting materials.

D.  The chemical ingredients

ANSWER

The correct option is C.

A chemical reaction is made up of two distinct parts, which are reactants and products. The reactants refers to the starting material of the chemical process, which react together under suitable conditions. The products on the other hand refers to the new substance that is formed as a result of the reaction of the reactants. The reactants are usually find at the left side of chemical equations while the product is found at the right.

How is the bike in the picture a system and how is the Earth a system?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The earth is a vast, complex system powered by two sources of energy: an internal source (the decay of radioactive elements in the geosphere, which generates geothermal heat) and an external source (the solar radiation received from the Sun); the vast majority of the energy in the earth system comes from the Sun.
