Answer:

275.4 kg

Explanation:

specific gravity = 0.918

Density = 0.918 g/cm^3 = 918 kg/m^3

Volume = 100 gallons = 300 litres = 300 x 10^-3 m^3 = 0.3 m^3

Mass = volume x density = 0.3 x 918 = 275.4 kg

The sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²

The given parameters;

initial velocity of the sprinter, u = 18 km/h

final velocity of the sprinter, v = 27 km/h

time of motion of the sprinter, t = 3.5 x 10⁻⁴ h

Convert the velocity of the sprinter to m/s;

$initial \ velocity, u = 18 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 5 \ m/s\\\\final \ velocity, v =27 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 7.5 \ m/s\\\\$

The time of motion is seconds;

$t = 3.5 \times 10^{-4} \ h \times \frac{3600 \ s}{1 \ h} = 1.26 \ s$

The sprinter’s average acceleration is calculated as follows;

$a = \frac{v- u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{7.5 \ m/s \ - \ 5 \ m/s}{1.26 \ s} \\\\a = 1.98 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²

An object is placed at O ona number line. It moves 3 units to the right, then 4 units to the left, and then 6 units to

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

You have a displacement of 5 units to the right.

Explanation:

First you go three to the right which lands on the 3 mark. Then you move it 4 to the left which substracts 4, landing the object at -1. Finally you move 6 to the right, and you finish at marker 5. Since displacement is not total distance but just final distance from the start point directly to end point, it is only a displacement of 5.

The ammonia molecule (NH3) has a dipole moment of 5.0×10?30C?m. Ammonia molecules in the gas phase are placed in a uniform elect

Neko [114]

Question (continuation)

(a) What is the change in electric potential energy when the dipole moment of a molecule changes its orientation with respect to E S from parallel to perpendicular?

(b) At what absolute temperature T is the average translational kinetic energy 3/2kT of a molecule equal to the change in potential energy calculated in part (a)?

Answer:

a. 9.0 * 10^-24 Joules

b. 0.44K

Explanation:

Given

Let p = dipole moment = 5.0 * 10^-30 Cm

Let E = Magnitude = 1.8 * 10^6 N/m

The charge in electric potential = Final Charge - Initial Charge

Initial Charge = Potential Energy

Initial Energy = -pE cosФ where Ф = 0

So, initial Energy = - 5.0 * 10^-30 * 1.8 * 10^6

Initial Energy = -9 * 10^-24 Joules

Final Energy = 0

Charge = 0 - (-9.0 * 10^-24)

Charge = 9.0 * 10^-24 Joules

Absolute Temperature

Change in Kinetic Energy = Change in Potential Energy = 9.0 * 10^-24

Change in Kinetic Energy = 3/2kT where k is Steven-Boltzmann constant = 1.38 * 10^-23

So,

9.0 * 10^-24 = 3/2 * 1.38 * 10^-23 * T

T = (9.0 * 10^-24 * 2)/(3 * 1.38 * 10^-23)

T = (18 * 10^-24)/(4.14 * 10^-23)

T = 0.44K

Vector → A points due north and vector → B points due west. Both vectors have the same magnitude. Which of the following vectors

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

B - A

Explanation:

For the combination of 2 vector to due southwest, 1 vector must due south and the other vector due west. Since vector B is already due west, vector A should due south. As vector A is already due north, vector -A would due south. So the combination of B + (-A) or B - A should points southwest
