On Monday while Johnny was getting ready for school, he was in the bathroom holding his comb when he got an itch on his head. Jo

hnny used the comb to rub his itch away and when he did his hair was a mess. He turned on the faucet so there was a small stream of water flowing and as he brought the comb near the water to dampen it, he noticed that the water was pulling towards the comb. Thinking he was seeing things, he pulled the comb back and the water was flowing straight down. He again moved the comb near the stream of water and the water again was pulling towards the comb. He repeated this process many times and the water continued to move towards the comb when the comb was near the water.
What do you think is happening to the stream of water flowing from the faucet?
Support you claim in Question 1, by explaining why you think it is happening.
Formulate your hypothesis for the problem.

If a triangle is a right triangle, then the other two angles must be acute. true or false
skelet666 [1.2K]
That depends on which angle you picked first, because that determines
which angles "the other two" are.

If you picked the right angle (90°) first, before you asked the question,
then the other two are acute angles, and they're also complementary

An increase in the magnitude of velocity is called?
SSSSS [86.1K]
An increase in the magnitude of the velocity of a moving body (an increase in speed) is called a positive acceleration; a decrease in speed is called a negative acceleration. Acceleration, like velocity, is a vector quantity, so any change in the direction of a moving body is also an acceleration.

The coil springs on a car's suspension have a value of k = 64000 N/m. When the
AlladinOne [14]

80 joule is momentarily stored in each spring

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

The coil springs on a car's suspension have a value of k = 64000 N/m

When the  car strikes a bump the springs briefly compress by 5.0 cm (.05 m)

By compressing the spring, we apply a force over a distance

As a result we have done work on the spring

Doing work means that we have transferred energy to spring in form of elastic potential

Therefore,

k = 64000 N/m

x = 0.05m

<em><u>The elastic potential energy is given as:</u></em>

PE = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

Where, "k" is the spring constant and "x" is the displacement

PE = \frac{1}{2} \times 64000 \times 0.05^2\\\\PE = 32000 \times 0.0025\\\\PE = 80

Thus 80 joule is momentarily stored in each spring

A bathysphere used for deep-sea exploration has a radius of 1.50 m and a mass of 1.19 104 kg. In order to dive, this submarine t
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

m = 2,776.95 kg

Explanation:

given,

radius = 1.5 m

mass = 1.19 x 10⁴ Kg

constant speed, v = 1.4 m/s

Resistive force = 1105 N

density of sea water = 1.03 x 10³ kg/m³

Volume of vessel,

v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3

v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi\times 1.5^3

v = 14.14 m³

Upthrust,

U = ρ g V

U = 1030 x 9.8 x 14.14

U  = 142729.16 N  

Since the vessel is moving at a constant speed, the resultant force on it should equal zero.

downward acting forces = upward acting forces

Mg = U + resistive force

M x 9.8 = (142729.16+1105)

M=14676.95 Kg

Mass of water,

m = M - mass of vessel  

m = 14676.95 Kg- 11,900 kg  

m = 2,776.95 kg
