Mr. Fuller assigned his science class a lab comparing the masses of objects to the nearest gram using a balance. The mass of a p

aper clip is about 1 gram. How many paper clips will it take to balance the scale, if it is determined that a 1 centimeter cube of aluminum has the mass of 2.7 grams?

The scale would need 10 aluminum cubes on one side. Figure out how many paper clips would be needed on the other side to balance this. You have to use more than one aluminum cube because you need to have enough cubes so that you get a whole number mass. 10 cubes gives you a total mass of 27 g for the aluminum.

A truck moving at 13.3 m/s hits a concrete wall. As a result of the collision, a 6-kg wrench moves forwards and strikes the wall
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The velocity of the wrench must be equal to the velocity of the truck . So momentum of the wrench before it hits the wall

= mv = 6 x 13.3 = 79.8 kg m /s

If resisting force of wall be F , impulse on the wrench = F x time

= F x .07

Impulse = change in momentum of the wrench = mv - 0 = mv = 79.8 kgm/s

So F x .07 = 79.8

F = 1140 N .

A tiny particle with charge + 5.0 μC is initially moving at 55 m/s. It is then accelerated through a potential difference of 500
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

ΔK.E = 2.5 × 10⁻³ J

Explanation:

Given data in the question, we have:

Charge of the particle, q = 5.0 μC = 5 × 10 ⁻⁶ C

Initial speed of the particle, v = 55 m/s

The potential difference, ΔV = 500 V

Now, the gain in kinetic energy is given as

ΔK.E = q × ΔV

on substituting the values in the above formula, we get

ΔK.E = 5 × 10 ⁻⁶ C × 500 V

or

ΔK.E = 2.5 × 10⁻³ J

The momentum of a car 54,400 kg * m/s. If the car weighs 16,680N what is the velocity of the car
wariber [46]

G=mg=>m=G/g=16680/9.8=1702 kg

p=mv=>v=p/m=54400/1702=32 m/s

The particle accelerator at CERN can accelerate an electron through a potential
asambeis [7]

Answer:

K.E = 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV

Explanation:

Given that a particle accelerator at CERN can accelerate an electron through a potentialdifference of 80 kilovolts.

To Calculate the kinetic energy (in keV) of the electron​, let us first find the electron charge which is 1.60 × 10^-19C

The kinetic energy = work done

K.E = e × kV

Substitute e and the voltage into the formula

K.E = 1.60 × 10^-19 × 80

K.E = 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV

Therefore, the kinetic energy is approximately equal to 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV
