Answer:

a=51.77\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a toy, m = 0.62 kg

Force with which a child pull the toy = 16.3 N

The force with which the toy pulled in the opposite direction = -15.8 N

We need to find the acceleration of the toy. Let F be the net force acting on the toy. It is equal to :

F = 16.3 N - (-15.8 N)

= 32.1 N

Let a be the acceleration of the toy. Using Newton' second law of motion to find it.

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{32.1}{0.62}\\\\a=51.77\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the toy is 51.77\ m/s^2.

The specific heat of a solid Y is 11.5 cal/g°C. A sample of this
fgiga [73]

The sample of the solid in grams is 5.5g

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY:

  • The quantity of heat absorbed or released by a substance can be calculated using the following formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat absorbed/released (cal)

m = mass of the substance (g)

c = specific heat (cal/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

  • According to the information provided in this question:

Q = 7.90Kcal = 7900cal

m = ?

c = 11.5 cal/g°C

T1 = 135K = 135K − 273.15 = -138.1°C

T2 = 260K = 260K − 273.15 = -13.15°C

∆T = -13.15 - (-138.1) = 124.95°C

  • Hence, the mass of the substance can be calculated as follows:

m = Q ÷ c∆T

m = 7900 ÷ (11.5 × 124.95)

m = 7900 ÷ 1436.93

m = 5.5grams.

Therefore, the sample of the solid in grams is 5.5g.

Describe the path of an electrical impulse as it moves through a neuron
maksim [4K]

Answer & Explanation:

The nerve impulses start in the dendrites then moves down the axon starting in the axon. Nerve impulses speed up the myelin sheath. Then through the nodes of ranvier speeding up action potential then at the axon terminal the electrical impulse goes through the synapse through electrical then chemical with neurotransmitters and electrical again back to a dendrite.

The carnival ride has a 2.0m radius and rotates 1.1 times persecond.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

a) v = 13.8 m / s , b) a = 95.49 m / s² , c) a force that goes to the center of the carnival ride  and d)   μ = 0.10

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the angular kinematics relationships and the equation that relate this to the linear kinematics

a) reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     w = 1.1 rev / s (2pi rad / 1rev) = 6.91 rad / s

The equation that relates linear and angular velocity is

     v = w r

     v = 6.91  2

     v = 13.8 m / s

b) centripetal acceleration is given by

     a = v² / r = w² r

     a = 6.91² 2

     a = 95.49 m / s²

c) this acceleration is produced by a force that goes to the center of the carnival ride

d) Here we use Newton's second law

     fr -W = 0

     fr = W

     μ N = mg

Radial shaft

      N = m a

      N = m w² r

      μ m w²  r = m g

      μ = g / w² r

      μ = 9.8 / 6.91² 2

      μ = 0.10
