Answer:

The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is composition. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring. In order for a reaction to take place, there must be a change in the elemental composition of the substance in question. Thus, we shall simply refer to physical "reactions" as physical changes from now on.

Explanation:

Physical changes are limited to changes that result in a difference in display without changing the composition. Some common changes (but not limited to) are:

Texture

Color

Temperature

Shape

Change of State (Boiling Point and Melting Point are significant factors in determining this change.)

Physical properties include many other aspects of a substance. The following are (but not limited to) physical properties.

Luster

Malleability

Ability to be drawn into a thin wire

Density

Viscosity

Solubility

Mass

Volume

A student places her 490 g physics book on a frictionless table. She pushes the book against a spring, compressing the spring by

Paul [167]

Answer:

book speed is 3.99 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 490 g = 0.490 kg

compressing x = 7.10 cm = 0.0710 m

spring constant k = 1550 N/m

to find out

book speed

solution

we know energy is conserve so

we can say

loss in spring energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2 = \frac{1}{2}*m*v^2$ ..................1

put here value

$\frac{1}{2}*1550*0.071^2 = \frac{1}{2}*0.490*v^2$

v = 3.99 m/s

so book speed is 3.99 m/s

A train travels 200km/hr. how much distance will the train be from the station in 2.5 hours?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

500km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed = 200km/hr

Time taken = 2.5hrs

Unknown:

Distance = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.

Therefore;

Distance = Speed x time

So;

Distance = 200 x 2.5 = 500km

A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra down a frictionless chute. It starts at a height of 1.69 m above the bottom of the chute with

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 6.94 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can find the speed at the bottom of the ramp using energy conservation

Starting point. Higher

Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g h

Final point. Lower

$Em_{f}$ = K = ½ m v²

Em₀ = Em_{f}

½ m v₀² + m g h = ½ m v²

v² = v₀² + 2 g h

Let's calculate

v = √(1.23² + 2 9.8 1.69)

v = 5.89 m / s

In the horizontal part we can use the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

W = ΔK

-fr x = 0- ½ m v²

Newton's second law

N- W = 0

The equation for the friction is

fr = μ N

fr = μ m g

We replace

μ m g x = ½ m v²

x = v² / 2μ g

Let's calculate

x = 5.89² / (2 0.255 9.8)

x = 6.94 m

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200N. How much force does the bat (moving at 20m/s)

just olya [345]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200 N.

We need to find the force that the bat moving at 20 m/s hit the ball with.

We know that, this probelm is based on Newton's third law of motion. The force that the ball exerting on bat should be equal to the force that the bat exerting in the ball but in opposite direction.

It would mean that the ball hits the ball with a force of 200 N. Hence, the correct option is (a).
