You didn't give us a photo of Figure 4-18, so we don't know anything about
the sports car. But here's how to answer the question on your own:
Acceleration = (change in speed) divided by (time for the change)
and
Change in speed = (end speed) minus (start speed)
So, the garbage truck's acceleration is ...
(100 km/hr - 0) / (10 sec)
= 10 km/hr per second .
Calculate the acceleration of the sports car the same way,
and then you can compare them.
Answer:
Angular momentum is conserved if there are no external forces
P1 = P2
I1 ω1 = I2 ω2
ω2 / ω1 = I1 / I2
If the skater pulls their arms in (I2 < I1) then the angular speed must increase for angular momentum to be conserved.
Explanation:
a) glowing embers in a campfire : It is a non mechanical conversion
(b) a strong wind: Kinetic or mechanical
(c) a swinging pendulum: A combination of potential and kinetic energy.
(d) a person sitting on a mattress: potential energy or mechanical
(e) a rocket being launched into space
: kinetic and potential.
Answer:
ΔL = 5.09x10^-5 m
Explanation:
data provided by the exercise:
m = 56 kg
L = 35 cm = 0.35 m
r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m
Y = 1.6x10^10 N/m^2
F = 3 m*g
A = pi*r^2
The Young´s modulus is equal to:
Y = (F/A)/(ΔL/L) = (F*L)/(A*ΔL)
Clearing ΔL, we have:
ΔL = (F*L)/(A*Y) = (3*56*9.8*0.35)/(pi*(0.015^2)*1.6x10^10) = 5.09x10^-5 m
Water travels through long, thin tubes running up from the roots through the stems and leaves called xylem.Water moves up the xylem through a process called capillary action.
Capillary action allows water to be pulled through the thin tubes because the molecules of the water are attracted to the molecules that make up the tube. The water molecules at the top are pulled up the tube and the water molecules below them are pulled along because of their attraction to the water molecules above them.
