Answer:

Chest experiences the friction forces towards right

Explanation:

Friction forces can be defined as a force a body experiences when it is made to slide against the surface. Friction force always acts to stop the the body which is moving. To stop the body, it always acts in the opposite directions to the motion of the body. Therefore, if the treasure chest is dragged across a sandy beach to the left, the frictional forces will act in the right direction.

A 5.0 kg block hangs from the ceiling by a mass-less rope. A Second block with a mass of 10.0 kg is attached to the first block
gayaneshka [121]

The tension in the first and second rope are; 147 Newton and 98 Newton respectively.

Given the data in the question

  • Mass of first block; m_1 = 5.0kg
  • Mass of second block, m_2 =10kg
  • Tension on first rope; T_1 =\ ?
  • Tension on second rope; T_2 =\ ?

To find the Tension in each of the ropes, we make use of the equation from Newton's Second Laws of Motion:

F = m\ *\ a

Where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration ( In this case the block is under gravity. Hence ''a" becomes acceleration due to gravity  g = 9.8m/s^2 )

For the First Rope

Total mass hanging on it; m_T = m_1 + m_2 = 5.0kg + 10.0kg = 15.0kg

So Tension of the rope;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 15.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 147 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 147N

Therefore, the tension in the first rope is 147 Newton

For the Second Rope

Since only the block of mass 10kg is hang from the second, the tension in the second rope will be;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 10.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 98 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 98N

Therefore, the tension in the second rope is 98 Newton

The specific heat of fat is roughly 1,700 J/(kgoC) whereas that for water is around 4200 J/(kgoC). A 0.63 kg solution of lipids
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg

Explanation:

Total heat content of the fat = heat content of water +heat content of the lipids

Let it be Q

the Q= (mcΔT)_lipids + (mcΔT)_water

total mass of fat  M= 0.63 Kg

Q= heat supplied = 100 W in 5 minutes

ΔT= 20°C

c_lipid= 1700J/(kgoC)

c_water= 4200J/(kgoC)

then,

100\times5\times60= m(1700)20+(0.63-m)(4200)20

solving the above equation we get

m= 0.46 kg

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg
