7 0

Answer: Land cools faster than water

Reason: Water has high specific heat capacity, so it absorbs huge amount of heat energy to increase comparatively small amount of temperature. Loosing a large amount of heat requires more time, so <em>water takes more time to cool down. </em>

If you get a ticket for speeding, it is based on your average speed or instantaneous speed? Explain

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Instantaneous speed

Explanation:

Usually the speed measuring guns are used to measure the speed at a certain instant, so the measured speed is instantaneous.

The average speed is determined by the expression final distance minus initial distance divided by time

$v_{aver} =\frac{x_{f}- x_{i}}{t}$

The instantaneous speed is determined in the same way as the average, but with the exception that the travel displacements are shorter (very close one each other).

A centrifuge rotor (hollow disk) is rotating at 10,000 rpm is shut off and brought to rest by a constant frictional torque of 1.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The no of revolutions rotor turn before coming to rest is 1,601.1943 and time taken is equal to 19.21 seconds

Explanation:

here we know that torque = I×α

α= angular acceleration

I = moment of inertia of hollow disc = m× $k^{2}$

given that m=4.37kg

k=0.0710m

torque=1.2Nm

$w_{o}=10000\times \frac{\pi}{30} rad /s$

$\alpha =\frac{torque}{I}$

from the above equation we can calculate the angular acceleration of the hollow disc .

since $w^{2}-w_o^{2} =2\alpha$ $\theta$

from this above equation $\theta=\frac{w^{2}-w_{o}^{2}}{2\alpha }$

no of revolutions = $\frac{\theta}{2\pi}$ = 1,601.1943.

Now to calculate time we know that time = $\frac{2\theta}{w+w_{o}}$

so upon calculating we will be getting t=19.21 seconds

In the reaction _S+302 +2SO3, what coefficient should be placed in front of the S to balance the reaction?

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

B. 2

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

_S + 3O₂ → 2SO₃

Now let us balanced the expression;

On the product side we have 2 moles of S

On the reactant side we should have 2moles of S

So, we put the coefficient 2 to balance the expression;

We have 6 moles oxygen on both sides

A man pushes a heavy cart with a force exerted of 250 Newtons to keep it moving at a constant velocity. What is the kinetic fric

miv72 [106K]

It can't be less than 250 N or the cart wouldn't move at all. That means there is only 1 answer. It's between not enough info or 250 N. The answer is 250 N. If it was any more, there would be acceleration.

Why do plants not need digistive system

WINSTONCH [101]

Humans need a digestive system to do cellular respiration, which produces energy used for growth and movement.

Plants do not need one as they make their own energy through photosynthesis. The process produces glucose, which is a form of energy for the plants.
