The quantity of matter in an object. More specifically, it is the measure of the inertia that an object exhibits in response to

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

The mass of an object expresses the amount of matter it comprises. Which implies that objects with higher mass contains higher matter compared to objects with lesser masses. Thereby it determines the measure of inertia experienced by an object when a force is applied to change its direction of motion, or to set it in motion when at rest, or bring it to rest when in motion.

The mass of an object the same no matter its location, and it is measured in kilograms.

An airliner arrives at the terminal, and its engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angu

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

(a) 1200 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the rotor is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

where we have

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration (negative since the rotor is slowing down)

$\omega_f$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

t = 10.0 s is the time interval

Solving for $\omega_f$ , we find the final angular speed after 10.0 s:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t = 2000 rad/s + (-80.0 rad/s^2)(10.0 s)=1200 rad/s$

(b) 25 s

We can calculate the time needed for the rotor to come to rest, by using again the same formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

If we re-arrange it for t, we get:

$t = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\alpha}$

where here we have

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\omega_f=0$ is the final angular speed

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation,

$t=\frac{0-2000 rad/s}{-80.0 rad/s^2}=25 s$

In an inkjet printer, letters and images are created by squirting drops of ink horizontally at a sheet of paper from a rapidly m

Serga [27]

Answer:

$q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C$

Explanation:

Deflection in the drop is due to electric field force

so we will have

$F = qE$

acceleration of the drop is given as

$a = \frac{qE}{m}$

$a = \frac{q(7.75 \times 10^4)}{1.00 \times 10^{-11}}$

$a = 7.75 \times 10^{15} q$

now we know that time to cross the plates is given as

$t = \frac{D}{v}$

$t = \frac{0.02}{18}$

$t = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} s$

now the deflection is given as

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$0.310 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{1}{2}(7.75 \times 10^{15} q)(1.11 \times 10^{-3})^2$

$0.310 \times 10^{-3} = 4.78 \times 10^9 q$

$q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C$

The entropy of an isolated system must be conserved, so it never changes.a. Trueb. Fasle

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

B: False

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that: the entropy of an isolated system will never decrease because isolated systems always tend to evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium which is a state with maximum entropy.

Thus, it means that the entropy change will always be positive.

Therefore, the given statement in the question is false.

With what force will a car hit a tree if the car has a mass of 3,415 kg and it is accelerating at

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

$F= 17,075\ N$

Explanation:

When the car is under an accelerating force and hits a tree, the instant force received by the tree is the same force that is accelerating the car.

The accelerating force can be calculated using Newton's second law:

$F=m\cdot a$

Where m is the mass of the car and a is the acceleration.

$F=3,415\ kg\cdot 5\ m/s^2$

$\boxed{F= 17,075\ N}$
