Forces that act on an object but are not equal in size

Physics
1 answer:
mezya [45]3 years ago

Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction and do not cause a change in an object's movement are called balanced forces.

forces that aren't equal in size and do cause a change in movement (what it seems like you're asking for) are called UNBALANCED FORCES

so answer (in case that wasn't clear, as I'm tired) : unbalanced forces

Canola oil is less dense than water, so it floats on water, but its index of refraction is 1.47, higher than that of water. When
kupik [55]

Answer:

therefore critical angle c= 69.79°

Explanation:

Canola oil is less dense than water, so it floats over water.

Given n_{canola}= 1.47

which is higher than that of water

refractive index of water n_{water}=1.33

to calculate critical angle of light going from the oil into water

we know that

sinc= \frac{n_{water}}{n_{canola}}

now putting values we get

sinc= \frac{1.33}{1.47}

c= sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.47} )

c=69.79°

therefore critical angle c= 69.79°

0.0884 moles of a diatomic gas
Sloan [31]

Answer:

W = - 118.24 J (negative sign shows that work is done on piston)

Explanation:

First, we find the change in internal energy of the diatomic gas by using the following formula:

\Delta\ U = nC_{v}\Delta\ T

where,

ΔU = Change in internal energy of gas = ?

n = no. of moles of gas = 0.0884 mole

Cv = Molar Specific Heat at constant volume = 5R/2 (for diatomic gases)

Cv = 5(8.314 J/mol.K)/2 = 20.785 J/mol.K

ΔT = Rise in Temperature = 18.8 K

Therefore,

\Delta\ U = (0.0884\ moles)(20.785\ J/mol.K)(18.8\ K)\\\Delta\ U = 34.54\ J

Now, we can apply First Law of Thermodynamics as follows:

\Delta\ Q = \Delta\ U + W

where,

ΔQ = Heat flow = - 83.7 J (negative sign due to outflow)

W = Work done = ?

Therefore,

-83.7\ J = 34.54\ J + W\\W = -83.7\ J - 34.54\ J\\

<u>W = - 118.24 J (negative sign shows that work is done on piston)</u>

Vlad [161]

B. Energy

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon B. Energy.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Kilo-watt Hours (kWh) is the unit that measures the electricity consumption of customers. Since Power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit per unit time,

P = \frac{E}{t} \\E= P\times t

If energy is transmitted at a constant rate over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt hours is the product of power in kilowatts(kW) and time in hours (h)

1\ kWh = 3.6\times 10^6\ Joules

to start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 290 m/s at 53.0° above the ho
kap26 [50]
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.

The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m

The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.

This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m

So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)

A box sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface runs into a fixed spring, compressing it a distance x1 from its relaxed posit
inn [45]

Answer:twice of initial value

Explanation:

Given

spring compresses x_1 distance for some initial speed

Suppose v is the initial speed and k be the spring constant

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy converted into spring Elastic potential energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_1^2----1

When speed doubles

\dfrac{1}{2}m(2v)^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_2^2----2

divide 1 and 2

\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}

x_2=2x_1

Therefore spring compresses twice the initial value
