Answer:

an influence that is able to change the motion of a body or create motion or stress in a stationary body. The magnitude of an influence is often calculated by multiplying the mass of the body by its acceleration.

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements

pickupchik [31]

Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118 elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).

Cual sera el caudal que lleva un rio cuando se desplaza a 200 litros cada 40 segundos

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Q = 5 L/s

Explanation:

To find the flow you use the following formula (para calcular el caudal usted utiliza la siguiente formula):

$Q=\frac{V}{t}$

V: Volume (volumen) = 200L

t: time (tiempo) = 40 s

you replace the values of the parameters to calculate Q (usted reemplaza los valores de los parámteros V y t para calcular el caudal):

$Q=\frac{200L}{40s}=5\frac{L}{s}$

Hence, the flow is 5 L/s (por lo tanto, el caudal es de 5L/s)

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is Fsail = 330 N north. The water exerts a force of Fkeel = 210 N east.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is $a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction is $\theta = 32.5 6^o$ north of east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The force exerted by the wind is $F_{sail} = (330 ) \ N \ north$

The force exerted by water is $F_{keel} = (210 ) \ N \ east$

The mass of the boat(+ crew) is $m_b = 260 \ kg$

Now Force is mathematically represented as

$F = ma$

Now the acceleration towards the north is mathematically represented as

$a_n = \frac{F_{sail}}{m_b}$

substituting values

$a_n = \frac{330 }{260}$

$a_n = 1.269 \ m/s^2$

Now the acceleration towards the east is mathematically represented as

$a_e = \frac{F_{keel}}{m_b }$

substituting values

$a_e = \frac{210}{260}$

$a_e =0.808 \ m/s^2$

The resultant acceleration is

$a_r = \sqrt{a_e^2 + a_n^2}$

substituting values

$a_r = \sqrt{(0.808)^2 + (1.269)^2}$

$a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2$

The direction with reference from the north is evaluated as

Apply SOHCAHTOA

$tan \theta = \frac{a_e}{a_n}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{a_e}{a_n } ]$

substituting values

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{0.808}{1.269 } ]$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [0.636 ]$

$\theta = 32.5 6^o$
