The stratospheric chemical that prevents much of the solar ultraviolet radiation from penetrating to earth's surface is:

The rate of change of velocity or speed is known as acceleration. If a car increases it speed form 10 to 20m/s in 2 seconds, the

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A) 5 m/s/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 10m/s²

Final velocity = 20m/s²

Time, t = 2 seconds.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

$Acceleration, a = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Acceleration, a = \frac{20 - 10}{2}$

$Acceleration, a = \frac{10}{2}$

Acceleration, a = 5m/s²

3. A large passenger ship required a force of 1,600,000 N to move 2000 m. How much work is done on the ship?

Dovator [93]

Answer:

3,200,000,000 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as the amount of energy transferred as an object is moved a certain distance with a certain force. Mathematically, we express this with the equation

$W=Fs$

where W is work (measured in joules), F is the force applied (in Newtons), and s is the distance, also called the displacement (in meters).

Here, we have F = 1,600,000 N and s = 2000 m, so our work will be

$W=1.600.000(2.000)=3.200.000.000$ J

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses in the outer sec

Alex

Answer:

ωM = 1.7 rad/s

vM = 3.4 m/s

ωA = 1.7 rad/s

vA = 1.7 m/s

Explanation:

Calculation of the angular speed (ω)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

ω = θ / t Formula (1)

Where:

ω: angular speed (rad/s)

θ:angle that the particle travels (rad)

t: time interval (s)

Equivalence

1 revolution = 2π rad

Data

θ= 1 revolution = 2π rad

t = 3.7 s

We replace data in the formula (1):

ω = (2π rad) / (3.7s )= 1.7 rad/s

Because the angular speed depends only on the number of turns in a time interval then Mary's angular speed (ωM) is equal to Alex's angular speed (ωA).

ωM = ωA = 1.7 rad/s

Calculation of the tangential speed (v)

We use the following formula for circular motion:

v = ω*r Formula (2)

Where:

v : tangential speed (m/s)

ω: angular speed ( rad/s)

r : radius of the circular path (m)

Data

ωM = ωM = ω= 1.7 rad/s

rM = 2m : Mary's circular path radius

rA = 1m : Alex's circular path radius

We apply the formula (2) to calculate v:

vM = ω* rM = (1.7) (2) = 3.4 m/s

vA = ω* rA = (1.7) (1) = 1.7 m/s

Oil having a specific gravity of 0.9 is pumped as illustrated with a water jet pump. The water volume flowrate is 1 m3 /s. The w

love history [14]

Answer:

The rate at which the pump moves oil is 1 m³/s

Explanation:

Assumptions:

there is steady-state flow

oil and water are incompressible

first fluid is water, second fluid is oil and third fluid is the mixture of oil and water.

$\rho_1Q_1 + \rho_2Q_2 = \rho_3Q_3 -------equation (i)$

where;

ρ is the fluid density

Q is the volumetric flow rate

$Q_1 + Q_2 = Q_3--------equation (ii)$

Substitute in Q₃ in equation i

$\rho_1Q_1 + \rho_2Q_2 = \rho_3(Q_1 +Q_2)$

divide through by ρ₁

$\frac{\rho_1Q_1}{\rho_1}+ \frac{\rho_2Q_2}{\rho_1} =\frac{ \rho_3(Q_1 +Q_2)}{\rho_1}\\\\Note; \frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1} = \gamma_2 \ and \ \frac{\rho_3}{\rho_1} = \gamma_3\\\\Q_1 + \gamma_2Q_2 = \gamma_3(Q_1+Q_2)$

Make Q₂ the subject of the formula

$Q_2 = \frac{Q_1(1- \gamma_3)}{\gamma_3-\gamma_2} = \frac{1 (\frac{m^3}{s}) (1-0.95)}{0.95-0.9} = 1 \ \frac{m^3}{s}$

Therefore, the rate at which the pump moves oil is 1 m³/s

Which is the best desciption of a molecule?

balandron [24]

A molecule is the smallest particle in a chemical element or compound that has the chemical properties of that element or compound. Molecules are made up of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons among atoms.
