Answer:

I would say it is recycling nonrenewable minerals instead of throwing them away.

Explanation:

using grocery bags only once before disposing them is also bad, but plastic is not really a resource compared to how minerals are resources.

if we recycle nonrenewable resources instead of throwing them away we would damage true resources.

Calculate the maximal friction force for a parked car between the rubber tires and a wet street. Assume the car’s mass is 1600 k

NikAS [45]

Answer:

$Fr=12544N$

Explanation:

1. Find the equation of eht maximal friction force:

The maximal friction force is given by the equation $Fr=usmg$ , where μs is the static friction coefficient, m is the car´s mass and g is the gravitational force.

2. Replace values in the equation to find the answer:

$Fr=0.8*1600kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$Fr=12544N$

1)the car's engine power is 44000W. Explain this number in a physical sense

Ratling [72]

Answer:

1) It expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) P = 20 W

3) h = 18 km

Explanation:

1) Power is the rate of transfer of energy.

⇒ Power = $\frac{Energy(or workdone)}{Time}$

i.e P = $\frac{E}{t}$

Thus a car's engine power is 44000W implies that the engine of the car can propel the car at this rate. This expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) m = 400g = 0.4 kg

t = 20 s

h = 100m

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$

P = $\frac{mgh}{t}$

= $\frac{0.4*10*100}{20}$

= $\frac{400}{20}$

P = 20 W

3) u = 600 m/s

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$

From the third equation of free fall,

$V^{2}$ = $U^{2}$ - 2gh

V is the final velocity, U is the initial velocity, h is the height.

0 = $(600)^{2}$ - 2 x 10 x h

0 = 360000 - 20h

20h = 360000

h = $\frac{360000}{20}$

= 18000

h = 18 km

The maximum height of the bullet would be 18 km.

chromatic aberration problem do refractor telescopes have that reflectors don't

<u>Explanation:</u>

Chromatic aberration is a phenom in which light rays crossing through a lens focus at various points, depending on their wavelength. Chromatic aberration is a dilemma in which lens or refracting, telescopes undergo from. The various image distances for the respective colors affect various image sizes for them.

This involves the creation of disturbing color fringes in the image. Chromatic aberration can be pretty well adjusted by the use of an achromatic doublet. Here, a positive biconvex lens is coupled with a negative lens placed backward with greater dispersion. Thus partly compensates for the chromatic aberration.

a new planet is discovered that has twice the earth’s mass and twice the earth’s radius. on the surface of this new planet, a pe

Irina18 [472]

Answer: 250n

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force is: F = (gMm)/r^2

There are two factors at play here:

1) The mass of the planet 'M'

2) The radius 'r'

We can ignore the small M and the g, they are constants that do not alter the outcome of this question.

You can see that both M and r are double that of earth. So lets say earth has M=1 and r=1. Then, new planet would have M=2 and r=2. Let's sub these two sets into the equation:

Earth. F = M/r^2 = 1/1

New planet. F = M/r^2 = 2/4 = 1/2

So you can see that the force on the new planet is half of that felt on Earth.

The question tells us that the force on earth is 500n for this person, so then on the new planet it would be half! So, 250n!

Alexxandr [17]

fraction equation is<span>
F =µR
F=friction,µ=coefficient , R=reaction = mg

use same equation for b part, but the reaction is no longer mg because the plain is now inclined. Draw a forces diagram and you will see that the reaction force can be calculated from the weight of the object and inclination of the plain using trigonometry.</span>
