For 1983 through 1989, the per capita consumption

Physics
1 answer:
Tresset [83]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

Explanation:

We were told that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 37.1 pounds, and in 1989 it was 50 pounds.

If we assume t = 0 corresponds to year 1980. Then, for 1983 it will be t = 3 and for 1989,it will be t = 9.

Thus, expressing the information as ordered pairs, we have; (3,37. 1) and (9,50).

Let us now find slope of the linear function:

m1 = (y2 - y1)/(t2 - t1)

m1 = (50 - 37.1)/(9 - 3)

m1 = 2.15

So, we can find the linear equation as;

y - 37.1 = 2.15(t - 3)

y = 37.1 + 2.15t - 6.45

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

A storm 10.0 km in diameter has wind speeds of 10.0 m/s. What is its angular velocity in radians per second
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The value is w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the storm is  d =  10.0 \  km  =  10 000 \  m

   The wind speed is  v  =  10.0 \  m/s

   

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as

       r =  \frac{d}{2}

=>  r =  \frac{10000}{2}

=>    r =  5000 \ m

Generally the angular velocity is mathematically represented as  

        w= \frac{v}{r}

=>     w= \frac{10}{5000}

=>     w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

To get a feeling for inertial forces discuss the familiar cases of accelerating in a car in a straight line while increasing or
inn [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

When we accelerate in a car on a straight path we tend to lean backward because our lower body part which is directly in contact with the seat of the car gets accelerated along with it but the upper the upper body experiences this force  later on due to its own inertia. This force is accordance with Newton's second law of motion and is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the upper body part.

Conversely we lean forward while the speed decreases and the same phenomenon happens in the opposite direction.

While changing direction in car the upper body remains in its position due to inertia but the lower body being firmly in contact with the car gets along in the direction of the car, seems that it makes the upper body lean in the opposite direction of the turn.

On abrupt change in the state of motion the force experienced is also intense in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion.

Consider a short time span just before and after the spark plug in a gasoline engine ignites the fuel-air mixture and releases 1
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Temperature after ignition=7883.205 K

Explanation:

The number of moles is,

n=PV/RT

=(1.18x10^6)(47.9x10^-6)/8.314(325)

= 0.0209 moles

a) In this process volume is constant

Q=U

=nCv.dT

dT= Q/nCv

=1970/(1.5x8.314)(0.0209)

= 7558.205 K

The final temperature is,

= 7558.205+325

= 7883.205 K

2. As a pendulum swings, its energy is constantly converted between kinetic
Alex

Answer:

at point F

Explanation:

To know the point in which the pendulum has the greatest potential energy you can assume that the zero reference of the gravitational energy (it is mandatory to define it) is at the bottom of the pendulum.

Then, when the pendulum reaches it maximum height in its motion the gravitational potential energy is

U = mgh

m: mass of the pendulum

g: gravitational constant

The greatest value is obtained when the pendulum reaches y=h

Furthermore, at this point the pendulum stops to come back in ts motion and then the speed is zero, and so, the kinetic energy (K=1/mv^2=0).

A) answer, at point F

A toaster changes electrical energy to thermal energy. This is a/an
erastova [34]

A because the toaster converts electrical energy into heat energy and, after the bread has been heated for sufficient time, toasts pop out, ready to be buttered. And converting means transforming.
