Answer:

C. Length: km

Explanation:

Let's analyze each option:

A. Mass: in the SI system, mass is measured in kilograms (kg), so this matching is correct.

B. Time: in the SI system, time is measured in seconds (s), so this matching is correct.

C. Length: in the SI system, length is measured in meters (m). The kilometer, instead, is a multiple of the meter ( $1 km = 1000 m$ ). Therefore, this matching is not correct.

D. Temperature: in the SI system, temperature is measured in Kelving (K), so this matching is correct.

.3.3: Populating a vector with a for loop. Write a for loop to populate vector userGuesses with NUM_GUESSES integers. Read integ

Reptile [31]

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <vector>

using namespace std;

int main() {

const int NUM_GUESSES = 3;

vector<int> userGuesses(NUM_GUESSES);

int i = 0;

int uGuess = 0;

for(i = 0; i <= userGuesses.size() - 1; i++){

cin >> uGuess;

userGuesses.at(i) = uGuess;

}

cout << endl;

return 0;

}

Explanation:

First inbuilt library were imported. Then inside the main( ) function, 3 was assigned to NUM_GUESSES meaning the user is to guess 3 numbers. Next, a vector was defined with a size of NUM_GUESSES.

Then a for-loop is use to receive user guess via cin and each guess is assigned to the vector.

How long does it take for an airplane to change its velocity from 140 m/s to 180 m/s if its

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = 4ms⁻², Vf = 180 m/s & Vi = 140m/s

a = $\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

4 = $\frac{180-140}{t}$

t = 40/4

t = 10sec

To Measure Distance Use third Equation of Motion:

2aS = Vf²-Vi²

S = $\frac{180*180 - 140*140}{2(4)}$

S = 12800/8 = 1600m

A certain heat engine takes in 300 J of energy from a hot source and then transfers 200 J of that energy to a colder object. Wha

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The efficiency is 0.33, or 33%.

Explanation:

From the thermodynamics equations, we know that the formula for the efficiency of a heat engine is:

$\eta=1-\frac{Q_2}{Q_1}$

Where η is the efficiency of the engine, Q_1 is the heat energy taken from the hot source and Q_2 is the heat energy given to the cold object. So, plugging the given values in the formula, we obtain:

$\eta=1-\frac{200J}{300J}=0.33$

This means that the efficiency of the heat engine is 0.33, or 33% (The efficiency of an engine is dimensionless).

An elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration and moves 1 m in the first 1.7 s. A passenger in the elevator i

avanturin [10]

Answer: Tension = 53.6N

Explanation:

Given that

Height h = 1 m

Time t = 1.7 s.

Mass m = 5.1 kg

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Then we can find the tension in the cord by using the formula

T = mg + ma

= 5.1 (9.8 + 0.69)

= 5.1 × 10.5

= 53.6N
