Answer:

Gap left = Change in length on heating

Gap=Initial length×Coefficient of linear expansion×change in temperature

Gap=10×0.000012×15m

⟹Gap=0.0018 m

this is an example u have to put your equation in it

What does a curved gradient line in a distance-time graph represent?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

If the line is curved, the slope is changing, which also means the velocity is changing. In a distance-time graph, the gradient of the line is equal to the speed of the object. The more the gradient (and the steeper the line) the faster the object is moving.

A particle moves at a constant speed of 34 m/s in a circular path of radius 6.3 m. From this information, what can be calculated
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration

Explanation:

  • The centripetal acceleration is the motion inwards towards the center of a circular path.
  • <em><u>Centripetal acceleration is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path. </u></em>
  • That is;

         ac = v²/r

         Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m

Which is true regarding the penetrating power of radiation? (2 points) Select one:
Monica [59]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Alpha particles are heaviest among alpha, beta and gamma so they have least amount of Penetration compared to both.

Gamma Particles are lightest among three so they can Penetrate most .

The order of Penetration is given by

Alpha< Beta < Gamma

What is the dependent variable in this
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

"the plants had already started growing."

Explanation:

I think this is the answer because the definition of a dependent variable is the variable that is being affected by the change. Since the plants had already started growing BECAUSE of "They ran out of the farmer's compost, so

some of the plants received that compost

when the seeds were planted and other

plants got hardware store compost after

the plants had already started growing."

Sorry if I am wrong, I am just a 4th grader, pls don't hate on me, I am just trying to help :)
