Answer:

La persona está nadando en la alberca a una profundida de 5.575 metros.

Explanation:

La presión absoluta (P_{tot}) experimentada por la persona es la suma de la presión atmosférica (P_{atm}) y la presión hidrostática de la columna de agua de la alberca (P_{h}), medidas en kilopascales. Es decir,

P_{tot} = P_{atm}+P_{h} (1)

P_{tot} = P_{atm} + \frac{\rho\cdot g \cdot z}{1000} (2)

Donde:

\rho - Densidad del fluido de la alberca, medida en kilogramos por metro cúbico.

g - Aceleración gravitacional, medida en metros por segundo al cuadrado.

z - Profundidad de la persona en la alberca, medida en metros.

Si sabemos que P_{atm} = 101.325\,kPa, \rho = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} y P_{tot} = 156\,kPa, entonces la profundidad de la persona en la alberca es:

156 = 101.325 +\frac{(1000)\cdot (9.807)\cdot z}{1000}

54.675 = 9.807\cdot z

z = 5.575\,m

La persona está nadando en la alberca a una profundida de 5.575 metros.

Two identical 0.200kg mass are pressed against opposite ends of a light spring of force constant 1.75N/cm compressing the spring
arlik [135]

This type of a problem can be solved by considering energy transformations. Initially, the spring is compressed, thus having stored something called an elastic potential energy. This energy is proportional to the square of the spring displacement d from its normal (neutral position) and the spring constant k:

E_p=\frac{1}{2}kd^2= \frac{1}{2}175\frac{N}{m}\cdot 0.37^2m^2=11.98J

So, this spring is storing almost 12 Joules of potential energy. This energy is ready to be transformed into the kinetic energy when the masses are released. There are two 0.2kg masses that will be moving away from each other, their total kinetic energy after the release equaling the elastic energy prior to the release (no losses, since there is no friction to be reckoned with).

The kinetic energy of a mass m moving with a velocity v is given by:

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

And we know that the energies are conserved, so the two kinetic energies will equal the elastic potential one:

E_p = 2E_k=mv^2

From this we can determine the speed of the mass:

E_p =mv^2\implies v=\pm \sqrt{\frac{E_p}{m}}=\pm\sqrt{\frac{11.98J}{0.2kg}}=\pm 7.74\frac{m}{s}

The speed will be 7.74m/s in in one direction (+), and same magnitude in the opposite direction (-).

What is the correct equation for calculating the average atomic mass for 3 isotopes? (pls be 100%of your answer pls no guessing)
mariarad [96]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The correct equation for measuring the average microscopic weight  for 3 isotopes is multiply the rate of abundance by each weight and add them.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the average microscopic mass of element using weights and relative abundance we have to follow the following steps.

  • Take the correct weight of each isotope (that will be in decimal form)
  • Multiply the weight of each isotope by its abundance
  • Add each of the results together.

<em>This gives the required  average microscopic weight of the three isotopes.</em>

A car has a mass of 900 kg and a truck has a mass of 1800 kg. In which of the following situations would they have the same mome
Kaylis [27]

a) since force = mass * acceleration  

f= 900 * 0 (because constant speed = 0 acceleration)  

similarly b) f = 0

Provide descriptions and examples of the following forces: friction, gravity and elastic.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Friction:-

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing inter molecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an

EG:-

A coaster sliding against a table.

Gravity:-

The force of gravity is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself. By definition, this is the weight of the object. All objects upon earth experience a force of gravity that is directed "downward" towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found

EG:-

The force that causes a car to coast downhill even when you aren't stepping on the gas.

Elastic:-

Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. When an elastic material is stretched or compressed, it exerts elastic force. This force increases the more the material is stretched or compressed.

EG:-

An archer's stretched bow
