An object is shot upwards, from the ground, with an initial velocity of 120

Physics
1 answer:
Alex777 [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 30 metres

Explanation:

Initial velocity of object = 120m/s

Time taken = 4.0s

Distance covered by object = ?

Recall that distance = (Change in velocity / Time taken)

Distance = (120m/s)/4.0s

= (120m/s) / 4.0s

= 30m

Thus, the object will be 30 metres high

Which process requires more energy: completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at 1 atm pressure or completely vaporiz
Lilit [14]
The correct answer would be the first option. The process that would need more energy would be vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This can be seen from the latent heat of vaporization of each system. For the saturated water at 1 atm, the latent heat is equal to 40.7 kJ per mole while, at 8 atm, the latent heat is equal to 36.4 kJ per mole. The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed in order to vaporize a specific amount of substance without any change in the temperature. As we can observe, more energy is needed by the liquid water at 1 atm.

3. A car has a mass of 2.50 x 10^3 kg. If the force acting on the car is 7.65 x 10^3 N to the
const2013 [10]

Answer:

3.06m/s² to the east

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car = 2.5 x 10³kg

Force acting on the car  = 7.65 x 10³N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the car  = ?

Solution:

From Newton's second law of motion:

      Force  = mass x acceleration

   Acceleration  = \frac{Force }{mass}   = \frac{7.65 x 10^{3} }{2.5 x 10^{3} }    = 3.06m/s² to the east

At this rate, how long would it take for two continents 3500 kilometers apart to collide?
meriva

<span>Given:

3,500 kilometers

Find:</span>

 

Years for two continents to collide = ?

 

<span>Solution:

We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another are 1 centimeter per year.

So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>

</span>

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

1 km = 100,000 cm

3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm

Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means 350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.

 

Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.

<span>
To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.

vodomira [7]

Given parameters:

Mass on earth  = 50kg

Unknown:

Mass on planet Xenon = ?

Weight on planet Xenon = ?

Mass is the amount of matter contained in a particular substance.

Weight is the force on a body and it is derived from the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

         Weight  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Planet Xenon has half the gravitational force of Earth.

 This translated gives \frac{9.8}{2}   = 4.9m/s²

Now, mass is always the same every where if the amount of matter in a substance does not change.

In this problem, mass = 50kg on planet xenon.

Weight =  mass x acceleration due to gravity  = 50 x 4.9  = 245N

The weight on Xenon is 245N and the mass is 50kg
