What is the speed that the Earth orbits the Sun?

Why is it a good idea to start with room temperature water in the calorimeter?

densk [106]

Explanation:

It is a good idea to start with room temperature water in the calorimeter because the room temperature water helps to determine the heating up/cooling down because of the environment as the experiment takes place. Because the calorimeter heat is the same as the heat of the water.

Rama09 [41]

Assume the motion when you are in the car or in the school bus to go to the school.

To describe the motion the first thing you need is a point of reference. Assume this is your house.

This should be a description:

When you are sitting and the car has not started to move you are at rest.

The car starts moving from rest, gaining speed, accelerating. You start to move away from your house, with a positive velocity (from you house to your school) and positive acceleration (velocity increases).

The car reaches a limit speed of 40mph, and then moves at constant speed. The motion is uniform, the velocity is constant, positive, since you move in the same direction), and the acceleration is zero.

When the car approaches the school, the driver starts to slow down. Then, you speed is lower but yet the velocity is positive, as you are going in the same direction. The acceleration is negative because it is in the opposite direction of the motion.

When the car stops, you are again at rest: zero velocity and zero acceleration.

In all the path your velocity was positive, constant at times (zero acceleration) and variable at others (accelerating or decelerating).

When you comeback home, then you can start to compute negative velocities, as you will be decreasing the distance from your point of reference (your house).

During your summer internship for an aerospace company, you are asked to design a small research rocket. The rocket is to be lau

Viktor [21]

Answer:

6.75 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = 16 m/s²

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Let y be the distance the rocket is accelerating

960-y is the distance traveled in free fall

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 16\times y+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v^2=32y\ m/s$

In free fall

$v^2-u^2=2g(960-y)\\\Rightarrow 0-32y=2g(960-y)\\\Rightarrow -32y=2\times -9.81(960-y)\\\Rightarrow 960-y=\dfrac{-32}{2\times -9.81}y\\\Rightarrow 960-y=1.63098878695y\\\Rightarrow 960=2.63098878695y\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{960}{2.63098878695}\\\Rightarrow y=364.881828749\ m$

The distance the rocket will keep accelerating is 364.881828749 m

After which it will travel 960-364.881828749 = 595.118171251 m in free fall

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 364.881828749=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 16\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{364.881828749\times 2}{16}}\\\Rightarrow t=6.75353452598\ s$

The time the rocket is accelerating is 6.75 seconds

You have a 16-kg suitcase. what work did you do when you have slowly lifted it 0.80 m upward?

Anna71 [15]

The formula is:
Work = Force · Displacement
F = m · g
F = 16 kg · 9.8 m/s² = 156.8 N
and we know that:
d = 0.8 m
W = 156.8 N · 0.8 m = 125.44 J
Answer:
W = 125.44 J.

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.60 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.300 T. Calcu

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Complete question:

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.60 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.300 T. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire assuming the following angles between the magnetic field and the current.

a) 60 ⁰

b) 90 ⁰

c) 120 ⁰

Answer:

(a) When the angle, θ = 60 ⁰, force = 4.07 N

(b) When the angle, θ = 90 ⁰, force = 4.7 N

(c) When the angle, θ = 120 ⁰, force = 4.07 N

Explanation:

Given;

length of the wire, L = 2.8 m

current carried by the wire, I = 5.6 A

magnitude of the magnetic force, F = 0.3 T

The magnitude of the magnetic force is calculated as follows;

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)$

(a) When the angle, θ = 60 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(60)\\\\F = 4.07 \ N$

(b) When the angle, θ = 90 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(90)\\\\F = 4.7 \ N$

(c) When the angle, θ = 120 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(120)\\\\F = 4.07 \ N$
