The law of conservation tells us that no mass is lost. This is true because when wood burns or turns into ash, some of it is escaped as gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor into air . If we calculate the mass of these atmospheric gases that evolved when the wood turned into ash, we would find that the total mass of all these substances including the ash is equal to the log of wood.

what is the average acceleration of a four wheeler that speeds up from 3 miles per hour to 15 miles per hour in 0.6 hours
den301095 [7]
A= change in velocity / change in time

a  =  \frac{change \: in \: velocity}{change \: in \: time}
a =  \frac{15 - 3}{0.6}
a = 20 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }

A bullet of mass 6.20 10-3 kg, moving at 1320 m/s impacts a tree stump and penetrates 11.00 cm into the wood before coming to re
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

  F = -49.1   10³ N

Explanation:

Let's use the kinematics to find the acceleration the acceleration of the bullet that they tell us is constant

   v_{f}² = v₀² + 2 a x

Since the bullet is at rest, the final speed is zero

    x = 11.00 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.110 m

    0 = v₀² + 2 a x

   a = -v₀² / 2 x

   a = -1320²/(2 0.110)

   a = -7.92 10⁶ m / s²

With Newton's second law we find the force

   F = m a

   F = 6.20 10⁻³ (-7.92 10⁶)

   F = -49.1   10³ N

The sign means that it is the force that the tree exerts to stop the   bullet

a sphere with a radius of 8cm carries a uniform volume charge density of 1.5 find the magnitude of the electric field
gladu [14]

Answer:

E = 5.65 x 10¹⁰ N/C

Explanation:

First we need to find the total charge on the sphere. So, we use the following formula for that purpose:

q = \sigma V\\

where,

q = total charge on sphere

V = Volume of Sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.08\ m)^3 =  0.335\ m^3

σ = volume charge density = 1.5 C/m³

Therefore,

q = (0.335\ m^3)(1.5\ C/m^3) \\q = 0.502 C

Now, we use the following formula to find the electric field due to this charged sphere:

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}

where.

E  = Electric Field Magnitude = ?

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

r = radius of sphere = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ Nm^2/C^2)(0.502 C)}{(0.08\ m)^2}\\\\

<u>E = 5.65 x 10¹⁰ N/C</u>

Select the correct answer. Lisa’s doctor tells her that she needs to eat more foods that contain calcium to maintain her bone he
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The answer is B, if your body doesn’t consume enough vitamin D, it takes calcium from your bones. This is called losing bone mass. Losing bone mass makes the inside of your bones weaker and have a higher risk of fractures (especially children).

Which statement about homeostasis is true?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Homeostasis helps to maintain body equilibrium.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is defined as the maintenance of a fairly constant internal environment in an organism. Body fluids such as blood, lymph, and tissue fluids make up the internal environment of the body, hence by the action of the nervous and endocrine system, there levels are maintained at a body equilibrium, by the help of brain, which has overall control of homeostasis while other parts such as kidney, liver, skin, hormones are also involved.
