Answer:

25 mm = 0 deg C

200 mm = 100 deg C

200 - 25 = 175 = change in thread per 100 deg C

95 - 25 = 70 mm - change in thread from 0 deg C

70 / 175 * 100 = 40 deg C    final temperature at 95 mm

Estimate the acceleration you subject yourself to if you walk into a brick wall at normal walking speed. (Make a reasonable esti
xenn [34]

Answer:

From certain assumptions that the walking speed is 2 m/s, and the stop time is 0.1 s the acceleration would be -20 m/s

Explanation:

Using the average acceleration formula:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} where \Delta v and \Delta t are the changes in the speed and time respectively.

We have by assuming that the walking speed is 2 m/s and the stop time is 0.1s which is equal to the change in time during the stopping.

\Delta v=v_f-v_i=0-2 m/s=-2 m/s, where v_i,v_f are the initial speed and final speed respectively, and \Delta t=0.1 s

Plugging the previous in the average acceleration formula we get

a=\frac{-2}{0.1}=-20\, m/s where the minus sign indicates an acceleration in the opposite direction of the motion (or in other word opposite to the speed's direction).

What should be the spring constant k of a spring designed to bring a 1200 kg car to rest from a speed of 85 km/h so that the occ
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

k = 5178.8 N/m

Explanation:

As we know that spring mass system will oscillate at angular frequency given as

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

now we have

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{1200}}

now the maximum acceleration of the spring block system is at its maximum compression state which is given as

a = \omega^2 A

here A= maximum compression of the spring

so here in order to find maximum compression of the spring we will use energy conservation as we know that initial total kinetic energy of the car will convert into spring potential energy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2

here we know that

v = 85 km/h

v = 85 \times\frac{1000}{3600} = 23.61 m/s

now we have

(1200)(23.61^2) = kA^2

A^2 = \frac{6.68 \times 10^5}{k}

now from above equation of acceleration we have

5.0 g = (\frac{k}{m})\sqrt{\frac{6.68 \times 10^5}{k}}

5.0(9.81) = \sqrt{k}(0.68)

k = 5178.8 N/m

Why aren’t the Appalachian Mountains still as tall as the Himalayas?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

mountains are limited in their theoretical height by several processes. First is isostasy: the bigger a mountain gets, the more it weighs down its tectonic plate, so it sinks lower. ... Bottom line: mountains can get taller than Mount Everest in earth gravity, like the Appalachians probably did—but not much taller.
