LenaWriter [7]2 years ago

Answer:

a} 2400 N

b}240 kg

Explanation:

Pressure is force per unit area.

Given from the question that;

The pressure = 24000 Pa

Area = 0.46 * 0.22 =0.1012 m²

Calculating force from the formula;

P= F/A where P is pressure, F is force and A is area then

F= P*A = 24000*0.1012 = 2428.8 N

a) The weight is 2400 N  in 2 significant figures

b) Mass is calculated from the formula;

w= m* g  where w is weight, m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

2400 =  m * 9.81

m= 2400/ 9.81

m= 244.64

m= 240 kg { in 2 significant figures}

Describe a situation that includes no less than four charges of any magnitude, but they combine so that another location, p, has
Degger [83]

Answer:

Four charges of equal magnitude sitting at the vertices of a square

Explanation:

We can arrive at such a situation by thinking of a simple example first, a configuration of two charges. The force acting on the middle point of a straight line joining the two points(charges) will be zero. That is, the net Electric field will be zero as they cancel out being equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Now, we can extend this idea to a square having charge q at each vertex. If we put 'p' at the geometric center, we can see that the Electric fields along the diagonals cancel out due to the charges at the diagonally opposite vertices(refer to the figure attached). Actually, the only requirement is that the diagonally opposite charges are equal.

We can further take this to 3 dimensions. Consider a cube having charges of equal magnitude at each vertex. In this case, the point 'p' will yet again be the geometric center as the Electric field due to the diagonally opposite charges will cancel out.

In a standard tensile test a steel rod of 22-mm diameter is subjected to a tension force of 75kN. Knowing that v = 0.30 and E =
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(a) Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

Explanation:

Circular area at end of steel rod = pi * diameter^2 / 4

Area = pi * (22 * 10^-^3)/4

Area = 3.801 * 10^(-4)    meter squared

Stress = force / area

Stress = 75000 / (3.801 * 10^-4)

Stress = 197316495 Pa     OR       0.197 GPa

Modulus of elasticity = stress / strain

200 = 0.19732 / Strain

Strain = 0.0009866     (longitudinal)

(a) Strain = change in length / initial length

0.0009866 = Elongation of rod / 200

Elongation of rod = 0.19732 mm

(b) Poisson ratio = lateral strain / longitudinal strain

0.3 = lateral strain / 0.0009866

Lateral strain = 0.000296

Lateral strain = Change in diameter / original diameter

0.000296 = Change in diameter / 22

Change in diameter = 0.00651 mm

que ventajas e inconvenientes tienen las energias renovables, el agua del mar, agua embalzada, el sol, el viento
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Ventajas ambientales:

La principal ventaja es la prácticamente es nula la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI).

* Ayudan a disminuir enfermedades relacionadas con la contaminación.

* No necesitan grandes cantidades de agua para su funcionamiento.

* No crean problemas de basura difíciles de resolver, como la eliminación de residuos nucleares o escorias.

Ventajas económicas:

*Generación de empleos directos (trabajadores de la construcción, desarrolladores, fabricantes de equipo, diseñadores, instaladores, financieros).

* Competencia y reducción de precios de las generadoras tradicionales por tener un nuevo competidor, que asegure confiabilidad del servicio.

ENERGÍA SOLAR INCONVENIENTES:

La instalación de paneles solares en casas o industrias no es barato, además no todas las vivienda pueden instalarse este tipo de paneles. La legislación en cuanto al uso de los paneles solares no es la misma en todo el mundo.

ENERGÍA EÓLICA INCONVENIENTES:

La creación de parques eólicos es muy cara, además hay colectivos que se opinen a la instalación de parques eólicos en tierra porque opinan que afea el paisaje y es peligrosos para las aves que chocan al volar cerca de las hélices de los generadores eólicos.

ENERGÍA DE LAS MAREAS INCONVENIENTES:

El movimiento de las mareas mueve las turbinas. El movimiento de las mareas es capaz de mover turbinas, pero para ello hay que construir represas o aluviones.

Entre los inconvenientes está que la construcción de aluviones es muy cara. Hay oposición de grupos ecologistas que destacan que esta energía puede tener un impacto negativo sobre la fauna acuática. La energía de las mareas puede reducir el flujo de las mareas e impedir el flujo de aguas residuales al mar.

A substance freezes at -58c therefore substance melts at ?
Yanka [14]
The freezing point is the same as the melting point.

If it freezes at -58°C, hence the melting point is also <span>-58°C.</span>

The object represented by this graph is moving
Vinil7 [7]

The object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.

Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the figure, x-axis is representing increase in the time and y-axis is presenting increase in the distance from bottom to up. But the line in the graph which is plotted is decreasing from high distance to small distance with increase in time. So this indicates that as the time is increasing, the distance is decreasing.

And the object is moving toward the origin as the distance of the object motion is found to decrease with increase of time as per the graph. But the slope of the graph is found to be almost constant, this indicates that the velocity of the object is constant. Thus, the object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.
