Sam uses a flame to heat a metal rod. He measures the temperature and finds that over time, temperature increases first closest

to the flame and then farther away from the flame. How can Sam explain what is happening on the molecular level as the flame heats the metal rod through conduction?

Explanation:

the farther he buys the rod in the flame more is heated making the heat travel less and at a faster rate.

Answer: from the vertical, one should aim  86.6°

Explanation:

height of the center of object = 7.0 m - 0.05 m = 6.95 m

now let the bullet hits centre at point A height x meters from the ground

also let t be the time taken for the bullet to hit the object

so distance travelled by the target will be

d = h - x = 6.95 - x

now using the equation of motion

d = 1/2gt²

so 1/2gt² = 6.95 - x

x = 6.95 - 1/2gt² .........let this be equ 1

let angle of fire be ∅

so v(cos∅) × t = 100

our velocity v is 1200 ft/sec = 365.76 m/s

365.76(cos∅) × t = 100 ........equ 2

also vertical position of the bullet after t is

y = y₀ + c(sin∅)t - 1/2gt²

y = 1 + 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt² ----- equ 3

After time t. the vertical position x and y are same, else the bullet wouldn't have strike target at centre, so;

x = y

we substitute

equ 1 = equ 3

6.95 - 1/2gt² = 1 + 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt²

6.95 - 1 = 365.76(sin∅)t - 1/2gt² +  1/2gt²

5.95 = 365.76(sin∅)t

t = 5.96 / 365.76(sin∅)

now input the above equ  into equ 2

365.76(cos∅) ×  5.96/365.76(sin∅) = 100

5.95(cos∅)/sin∅ = 100

tan∅ = 5.95/100 = 0.0595

∅ =  3.40°

therefore from the vertical, one should aim (90° - 3.40°) = 86.6°

Ann walked 1.5 miles south to her house in 0.5 hours. what is Ann's speed? what is Ann's velocity
ipn [44]

To calculate the speed and velocity of the Ann`s we use the formula,

v= \frac{d}{t}

Here, d is distance and t is time and v if we take it with direction then it is called velocity and if we take it without the direction then it is called speed.

Given d=1.5 miles and t=0.5 hours.

Substituting these values in above equation we get

v=\frac{1.5mi }{0.5 h} = 3 mi/h

As Ann walked towards south direction therefore, Ann`s velocity is 3 mi/h south and her speed is 3 mi/h .

A small object with a 5.0-mC charge is accelerating horizontally on a friction-free surface at 0.0050 m/s2 due only to an electr
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

0.002 N/C

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Charge of object, q = 5 mC = 5 * 10^{-3} C

Acceleration of object, a = 0.005 m/s^2

Mass of object, m = 2.0 g

The Electric field exerts a particular force on the object, causing it to accelerate (Electrostatic force).

We know that Electrostatic force, F, is given in terms of Electric field, E, as:

F = qE

This means that the object exerts a force of -qE on the Electric force (Action with equal and opposite reaction).

The object also has a force, F, due to its acceleration a. This force is the product of its mass and acceleration. Mathematically:

F = ma

Equating the two forces of the object, we get:

-qE = ma

=> E = \frac{-ma}{q}

Solving for E, we have:

E = \frac{-2 * 10^{-3} * 0.005}{5 * 10^{-3}} \\\\\\E = -0.002 N/C

The magnitude will be:

|E| = |-0.002| N/C = 0.002 N/C

The electric field has a magnitude of 0.002 N/C.

A plane stops from 250 mph in 25 seconds. Calculate the plane's acceleration.
Lelechka [254]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 250 mph

v = 0 mph

t = 25 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

(0 mph) = a (25 s) + (250 mph)

a = -10 mph/s
