Answer:

(a) F = 320

(b) = F = -5.1625

Explanation:

The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:

F = 1.8C + 32

Solving (a): F = 2C

Substitute 2C for F in the above equation

F = 1.8C + 32

2C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

2C - 1.8C = 32

0.2C = 32

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5

C = 160

Recall that F = 2C

F = 2 * 160

F = 320

Solving (b): F = ¼C

Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula

F = 1.8C + 32

¼C = 1.8C + 32

Convert fraction to decimal

0.25C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

0.25C - 1.8C = 32

-1.55C = 32

Divide both sides by -1.55

C = 32/(-1.55)

C = -32/1.55

C = -20.65

Recall that: F = ¼C

F = -¼ * 20.65

F = -5.1625

1) 15 / 12 = 1.25 ratio
2) to increase acceleration  1.25 times (with same F, or same engine) you have to lower mass 1.25 times
3) 1515/1.25 = 1212 kg

What is the equation for momentum? Please help need answer ASAP.
Leona [35]
Momentum is mass in motion and only applies to objects in motion. It's a term that describes a relationship between the mass and velocity of an object, and we can see this when it is written in equation form, p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass in kg and v is velocity in m/s.

If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it oscillates. Suppose
Volgvan

Answer:

a) A=0.125 m

b) T = 1.72 s

c) f= 0.58 Hz

Explanation:

a) As we are told that the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position was 0.125 m (from which it was released at zero initial speed), this is the amplitude of the resultant SHM, so, A=0.125 m

b) In order to find the period, we must get the total time needed to complete a full cycle (which means that the block must pass twice through the equilibrium point). We are told that at t=0.860 sec, the block has reached to the other end of the trajectory, and it  has passed through the equilibrium point only once.

This means that the period must be exactly the double of this time:

T = 2*0. 860 sec = 1.72 sec.

c) In a SHM, the frequency is defined just as the inverse of the period (like in a uniform circular movement), so we can get the frequency  f as follows:

f = 1/T = 1/ 1.72 s= 0.58 Hz

1.- An elevator is being lowered at a constant speed by a steel cable attached to an electric motor. Which statement is correct?
Nady [450]

Answer:

the correct one is C

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the work definition

    W = F. s

Where the bold characters indicate vectors and the point is the scalar producer

    W = F s cos θ

Where θ is the angles between force and displacement.

Let us support this in our case. The cable creates an upward tension and with the elevator going down the angle between them is 180º so the work of the cable on the elevator is negative.

The evade has a downward force, its weight so the force goes down and the displacement goes down, as both are in the same direction the work is positive

When examining the statements the correct one is C
