The reason why a delivery truck filled with birds sitting on the floor be heavier than a truck with the same birds flying around is because when the birds are sitting on the floor, they are adding their weight to the truck.

Meanwhile, if the birds are flying around they aren't resting on the truck or touching it, so therefore their weight wouldn't be added to the truck.

The mass of the truck will remain the same as you cannot change the mass but the weight will vary depending on the items and objects placed in it.

The old rubber boot has two leaks. The top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. What is the velocity of the water coming

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s

Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks.

Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2

For a caffeinated drink with a caffeine mass percent of 0.65% and a density of 1.00 g/mL, how many mL of the drink would be requ

slava [35]

Explanation:

First we will convert the given mass from lb to kg as follows.

157 lb = $157 lb \times \frac{1 kg}{2.2046 lb}$

= 71.215 kg

Now, mass of caffeine required for a person of that mass at the LD50 is as follows.

$180 \frac{mg}{kg} \times 71.215 kg$

= 12818.7 mg

Convert the % of (w/w) into % (w/v) as follows.

0.65% (w/w) = $\frac{0.65 g}{100 g}$

= $\frac{0.65 g}{(\frac{100 g}{1.0 g/ml})}$

= $\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}$

Therefore, calculate the volume which contains the amount of caffeine as follows.

12818.7 mg = 12.8187 g = $\frac{12.8187 g}{\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}}$

= 1972 ml

Thus, we can conclude that 1972 ml of the drink would be required to reach an LD50 of 180 mg/kg body mass if the person weighed 157 lb.

Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the

leonid [27]

Answer:

$KE_A=33\ J$

$KE_B=99\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

Let mass of the particle B be, $m_B=m$

then the mass of particle A, $m_A=3m$

Energy stored in the compressed spring, $E=132\ J$

Now when the compression of the particles with the spring is released, the spring potential energy must get converted into the kinetic energy of the particles and their momentum must be conserved.

Kinetic energy:

$\frac{1}{2}m_A.v_A^2+\frac{1}{2}m_B.v_B^2=132$

$3m.v_A^2+m.v_B^2=264$ .............................(1)

<u>Using the conservation of linear momentum:</u>

$m_A.v_A+m_B.v_B=0$

$3m.v_A+m.v_B=0$ .............................(2)

Put the value of $v_A$ from eq. (2) into eq. (1)

$3m\times (\frac{-v_B}{3})^2+m.v_B^2=264$

$v_B^2=\frac{198}{m}$ ...........................(3)

<u>Now the kinetic energy of particle B:</u>

$KE_B=\frac{1}{2}\times m_B\times v_B^2$

$KE_B=\frac{1}{2}\times m\times \frac{198}{m}$

$KE_B=99\ J$

Put the value of $v_B^2$ form eq. (3) into eq. (1):

$v_A^2=\frac{22}{m}$

<u>Now the kinetic energy of particle A:</u>

<u /> $KE_A=\frac{1}{2}m_A.v_A^2$ <u />

<u /> $KE_B=\frac{1}{2}\times 3m\times \frac{22}{m}$ <u />

$KE_A=33\ J$
