A student was trying to find the relationship between mass and force. He placed four different masses on a table and pulled them

using a spring scale. The table shows the different masses used in the experiment and the force required to pull each mass. The student concluded that more force was required to pull heavier objects. What comment would you make regarding his conclusion? A) No clear relation can be observed between mass and force from the data. B) There is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table. C) Gravity should have been taken into account while performing the experiment. D) There is an inverse proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.

Answer:

B. There is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.

Explanation:

From the table, the values of force increases with increase in the value of mass.

if 5kg=25 N

Finding the contant of proportionality k;

k=25/5=5

thus M=k(F)...........where M is mass in kg and F is force in newton, then

M=5F

This show that for every value of mass, we get the value of Force if we multiply by a contant k=5

This means there is a direct proportionality relation between mass and force in the table.

#1 Not sure where to start. This is for AP Physics!

First,

\rho=\dfrac mV

where \rho is density, m is mass, and V is volume. We can compute the volume of the roll:

2.7\,\dfrac{\mathrm g}{\mathrm{cm}^3}=\dfrac{1275\,\mathrm g}V

\implies V\approx472.22\,\mathrm{cm}^3\approx4.72\,\mathrm m^3

When the roll is unfurled, the aluminum will be a rectangular box (a very thin one), so its volume will be the product of the given area and its thickness x. Note that we're assuming the given area is not the actual total surface area of the aluminum box, but just the area of the largest face (i.e. the area of one side of the unrolled sheet of aluminum).

So we have

V=Ax

where A is the given area, so

4.72\,\mathrm m^3=\left(18.5\,\mathrm m^2\right)x

\implies x\approx0.255\,\mathrm m=255\,\mathrm{mm}

If we're taking significant digits into account, the volume we found would have been V=470\,\mathrm m^3, in turn making the thickness x=250\,\mathrm{mm}.

In order to open the clam it catches, a seagull will drop the clam repeatedly onto a hard surface from high in the air until the
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

2.2 s

Explanation:

Hi!

Let's consider the origin of the coordinate system at the ground, and consider that the clam starts with zero velocity, the equation of motion of the clam is given by

x(t) = 23.1 m - \frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2) t^2

We are looking for a time t for which x(t) = 0

0 = 23.1 m - (4.9 m/s^2) t^2

Solving for t:

t = \sqrt{\frac{23.1}{4.9}} s = 2.17124 s

Rounding at the first decimal:

t = 2.2 s

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

a) b) d)

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The Complete question might be

In an inertial frame of reference, a series of experiments is conducted. In each experiment, two or three forces are applied to an object. The magnitudes of these forces are given. No other forces are acting on the object. In which cases may the object possibly remain at rest? The forces applied are as follows: Check all that apply.

a)2 N; 2 N

b) 200 N; 200 N

c) 200 N; 201 N

d) 2 N; 2 N; 4 N

e) 2 N; 2 N; 2 N

f) 2 N; 2 N; 3 N

g) 2 N; 2 N; 5 N

h ) 200 N; 200 N; 5 N

For th object to remain at rest, sum of all forces must be equal to zero. Use minus sign to show opposing forces

a) 2+(-2)=0 here minus sign is to show the opposing firection of force

b) 200+(-200)=0

c) 200+(-201)\neq0

d) 2+2+(-4)=0

e) 2+2+(-2)\neq0

f) 2+2+(-3) \neq0; 2+(-2)+3\neq0

g) 2+2+(-5)\neq0; 2+(-2)+5\neq0

h)200 + 200 +(-5)\neq0; 200+(-200)+5\neq0

A wave of infrared light has a speed of 6m/s and a wave length of 12 m. What is the frequency of this wave?
erastovalidia [21]
Frequency = speed / wavelength

(6 m/s) / (12 m) = 0.5 Hz.

That's not infrared light.
Infrared light waves move about 50 million times faster than that, and they're only about 0.00000007 as long as that.
