Answer:

Explanation:

Clinical Thermometer is meant for clinical purposes. It is developed for measuring the human body temperature. A laboratory thermometer, which is colloquially known as the lab thermometer, is used for measuring temperatures other than the human body temperature.

A car is initially driving at 30 m/s. It hits a large pothole, after which it is traveling in the same direction but at 25 m/s.

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The time of Mars is 1.65 times larger on Mars than on Earth

Explanation:

The equation that describes the system is the final speed is equal to the speed minos the speed lost by the collision with the porhole

Vf = Vo - V pothole

B) let's transform the weight of free groin system and N international system

1 N = 0.2248 lb

2.8 lbs (1N / 0.2248lbs) = 12.5 N

c) Kinematic equations are the same in all inertial systems, Mars and Earth, so we can use the height equation, with zero initial velocity

Y = Vo t - ½ g t²

Y = - ½ g t²

t = √ 2Y / g

Mars

gm = 0.37g

gm = 0.37 9.8

gm = 3,626 m / s²

t = √( 2 1.9 / 3.626 )

t = 1.02 s

Earth

t = √( 2 1.9 / 9.8)

t = 0.62 s

To make the comparison of time we are the relationship between the two

tm / te = 1.02 / 0.62

tm / te = 1.65

The time of Mars is 1.65 times larger on Mars than on Earth

A carpenter is driving a 15.0-g steel nail into a board. His 1.00-kg hammer is moving at 8.50 m/s when it strikes the nail. Half

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: The increase in temperature of the nail after the three blows is 8.0636 Kelvins. The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the hammer ,K.E.=

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}1.00 kg\times (8.50 m/s)^2=36.125 J$

Half of the kinetic energy of the hammer is transformed into heat in the nail.

Energy transferred to the nail in one blow =

$\frac{1}{2}K.E.=\frac{1}{2}\times 36.125 J=18.0625 J$

Total energy transferred after 3 blows,Q = $3\times 18.0625 J=54.1875 J$

Mass of the nail = 15 g = 0.015 kg

Change in temperature = $\Delta T$

Specif heat of the steel = c = 448 J/kg K

$Q=mc\Delta T$

$54.1875 J=0.015 kg\times 448 J/kg K\times \Delta T$

$\Delta T=8.0636 K\approx 8.1 K$

The increase in temperature of the nail after the three blows is 8.1 Kelvins.Hence, correct option is (d).

A tray is moved horizontally back and forth in simple harmonic motion at a frequency of f = 2.07 Hz. On this tray is an empty cu

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of SHM is $f=2.07\ Hz$

Amplitude of SHM is $A=3.13\ cm$

Cup begins to slip when it overcomes the friction force

Friction force $F_s=\mu mg$

Applied force $F=ma$

$ma=\mu mg$

$a=\mu g$

and maximum acceleration during SHM is

$a=A\omega ^2$

$a=A(2\pi f)^2$

$a=3.13\times 10^{-2}\times (2\pi 2.07)^2$

$a=5.296\ m/s^2$

$\mu =\frac{a}{g}$

$\mu =\frac{5.296}{9.8}=0.54$

The density of a block of wood is 694 kg/m3. Its mass is 689 g. We tie the block to the bottom of a swimming pool using a single

Serhud [2]

Answer:

<em>The tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = density of the wood block/density of water = weight of the wood block/Upthrust of the wood block in water.

R.d = D₁/D₂ = W/U

W/U =D₁/D₂.................................. Equation 1

Where W = weight of the wood block, U = upthrust of the wood block in water, D₁ = Density of the wood block, D₂ = Density of water.

Making U the subject of the equation,

U = WD₂/D₁........................... Equation 2

Given: W = mg = (689/1000)9.8 = 6.75 N, D₁ = 694 kg/m³, D₂ = 1000 kg/m³.

Substituting these values into equation 2,

U = 6.75(694)/1000

U = 4684.5/1000

U = 4.685 N.

Note: Three forces act on the wood block in the pool. and they are

(i) The weight(W) acting downs

(ii) The upthrust (U) acting upwards,

(iii) The Tension (T) in the string, acting upwards.

Thus,

W = U+T

T = W - U ................................. Equation 3

Where W = 6.75 N, U = 4.685 N

T = 6.75 - 4.685

T = 2.065 N.

T = 2.065 N

<em>Thus the tension in the string = 2.065 N</em>
