Which statements describe a physical property of matter? Check all that apply.

Physics
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition.

The change of one type of mater into another type is a chemical property (flammability, acidity, toxicity, reactivity, and heat of combustion are some examples of chemical properties.

A 14.0 m uniform ladder weighing 490 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 63.0°-angle with the horizontal.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

length of ladder r_L = 14m

weight of ladder F_L = 490N

position of firefighter r_F = 3.8m

weight of firefighter F_F = 820N

angle of ladder \alpha = 63

Unknown:

force of the wall on the ladder F_W

force of friction on base of ladder F_R

normal force on base of ladder F_N

From the free body diagram of the sketch you get 3 equations:

F_x = ma_x = F_W - F_R = 0\\ F_y = ma_y = F_N - F_F - F_L = 0\\ \tau _P = \overrightarrow{r} \times \overrightarrow{F} = r_FF_Fcos\alpha + \frac{1}{2}r_LF_Lcos\alpha - r_LF_Wsin\alpha = 0

Solving the equations gives:

F_W = F_R\\ F_N = F_F + F_L\\ F_W = \frac{r_FF_F + 0.5r_LF_L}{r_L tan\alpha}

a)

F_R = 238N\\ F_N = 1310N

b)

F_R = \mu F_N\\ \mu = \frac{F_R}{F_N} \\ \mu = 0.3

c) Using the result from b and solving for r_F

\\ \mu = 0.15\\ F_R = \mu F_N\\ r_F = 2.4m

Suppose you wanted to break a meter stick over your knee. The cross-section of a meter stick is rectangular. Will it be easier t
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

It will be easier to break the meter rule with the long side against my knee.

Explanation:

To break the meter rule involves the principle of bending moment. The long side will require less force to generate the same amount of bending moment that will have to be generated to break the meter rule. The short side on the other hand will require more force to generate this mount of bending moment. This is because the shorter has a very small surface area, which concentrates the force on your knee. The pressure is then dissipated as more pressure to your knee. Th longer side has a lesser surface area so, most of the force is used in breaking the meter rule.

At a certain elevation, the pilot of a balloon has a mass of 120 lb and a weight of 119 lbf. What is the local acceleration of g
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

31.905 ft/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the pilot, m = 120 lb

Weight of the pilot, w = 119 lbf

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 32.05 ft/s²

Local acceleration of gravity of found by using the relation

Weight in lbf = Mass in lb * (local acceleration/32.174 lbft/s²)

119 = 120 * a/32. 174

119 * 32.174 = 120a

a = 3828.706 / 120

a = 31.905 ft/s²

Therefore, the local acceleration due to gravity at that elevation is 31.905 ft/s²

A rope of length L has circular cross-sectional area A and density rho = m/V , where m is the mass of the rope and V = A · L is
hram777 [196]

Answer: µ = ρ¹ * A¹

Where x=1 and y=1

Explanation: According to the question, the mass per unit length (µ) is related to the density (ρ) and area A are related by the formulae below

µ = ρ * A

The dimension for each of these quantities is given below

Since µ is mass per unit length, unit is Kg/m and the dimension is ML^-1

ρ is density with unit kg/m³ and the dimension is ML^3

A is area with unit m², thus the dimension is M^2

Note that using dimensional analysis means we will be using the 3 fundamental quantities (mass, length and time) in our analysis.

Their dimensions below

Mass = M

Length = L

Time = T

Since the mass per unit length is related to density and area, we have a mathematical equation to provide a solution as shown below

µ = ρ^x * A^y.

By getting the power of x and y we will be able to get the formula that relates the quantities.

This is done by slotting in the dimensions of the respective quantities.

ML^-1 = (ML^-3)^x * (L²) ^y

By using law of indices on the right hand side of the equation, we have that

ML^-1 = (M^x * L^-3x) * (L^2y)

Also applying law of indices on the right hand side, we have that

ML^-1 = (M^x) * (L^-3x +2y)

The next step is to relate equal variables on both sides

For the M variable

M¹ = M^x which results to

x = 1

For the L variable

L^-1 = L^-3x+2y which results to

-1 = - 3x +2y

But x = 1

We have that

-1 = - 3(1) +2y

-1 = - 3 + 2y

-1 +3= 2y

2 = 2y

y = 1

Thus x=1 and y=1 and the formulae that relates the quantities is

µ = ρ¹ * A¹
