In Europe, gasoline efficiency is measured in km/L. If your car's gas mileage is 36.0mi/gal , how many liters of gasoline would

you need to buy to complete a 142-km trip in Europe? Use the following conversions: 1km=0.6214mi and 1gal=3.78L.

$36 \frac{mi}{gal} * \frac{1 km}{0.6214 mi}* \frac{1 gal}{3.78 L} = 15.3 \frac{km}{L}

142/15.3=9.27L$

A force is applied to an object at rest with a mass of 100kg. A force twice as large is applied to another object at rest with a

sukhopar [10]

According to Newton's second law. £Fext=m.a
then the acceleration of the second object will be twice as that of the first since the mass of both objects is equal(100kg) and the force F is doubled. Therefore the acceleration of object 2 will be more than that of object 1 (double)

hope this helps.

eduard

Answer:4A

Explanation:

Given

Mass is displace x= A units from its mean position x=0'

When it is set to free it will oscillate about its mean position with maximum amplitude A i.e. from x=-A to x=A

One cycle is completed when block returns to its original position

so first block will go equilibrium position x=0 and then to x=-A

from x=-A it again moves back to x=0 and finally back to its starting position x=A

so it travels a distance of A+A+A+A=4A

Answer:

<em>Correct choice: b 4H</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of the mechanical energy</u>

The mechanical energy is the sum of the gravitational potential energy GPE (U) and the kinetic energy KE (K):

E = U + K

The GPE is calculated as:

U = mgh

And the kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where:

m = mass of the object

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

When the snowball is dropped from a height H, it has zero speed and therefore zero kinetic energy, thus the mechanical energy is:

$U_1 = mgH$

When the snowball reaches the ground, the height is zero and the GPE is also zero, thus the mechanical energy is:

$\displaystyle U_2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Since the energy is conserved, U1=U2

$\displaystyle mgH=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 \qquad\qquad [1]$

For the speed to be double, we need to drop the snowball from a height H', and:

$\displaystyle mgH'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2$

Operating:

$\displaystyle mgH'=4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2 \qquad\qquad [2]$

Dividing [2] by [1]

$\displaystyle \frac{mgH'}{mgH}=\frac{4\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}{\frac{1}{2}m(v)^2}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{H'}{H}=4$

Thus:

H' = 4H

Correct choice: b 4H

What is The substance that dissolves the solute.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Do you mean the solvent? If this is off the mark, let me know in a comment.

The solvent is something that the solute is (usually) soluble in.
