Shelby the Skater's rocket provides a forward force of

Physics
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a=3.17\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Force force acting on the Skater's rocket is 220 N

Resistive force acting on it, F' = 30 N

Mass of Shelby, m = 60 kg

We need to find the acceleration of Shelby. Net force acting on Shelby is given by :

Net force = 220-30

= 190 N

The formula of net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of Shelby

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{190}{60}\\\\a=3.17\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of Shelby is 3.17\ m/s^2

Select the phrases that correctly describe density. Density is a chemical property. Density relates a mass to its volume. Densit
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Density relates a mass to its volume.

Density varies with temperature

Density determines if a substance floats or sinks.

Density may have units of grams per milliliter (g/mL)

Explanation:

Density D is a characteristic property of a substance or material and is defined as the relationship between the mass m of a body or substance and the volume V it occupies:

D=\frac{m}{V}

This means the density is inversely proportional to the volume.

On the other hand, density is a scalar quantity and according to the International System of Units its unit is D=\frac{kg}{m^{3}} , although it can be also expressed in \frac{g}{ml}.

It should be noted that the density of a body is related to its buoyancy, a substance or body will float on another fluid if its density is lower. In addition, if the pressure of the substance remains constant, as the temperature increases, the density decreases; this means density varies with the temperature as well.

Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor? Select two options.
vlada-n [284]

Wind speed and air temperature are used to calculate a windchill factor.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Wind-chill factor is the reduction of body temperature due to the passing flow of lower-temperature air.

The air temperature  value is always higher than the wind chill numbers. the heat index will be used if the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature.So, Wind speed and air temperature are mainly used to calculate a windchill factor.

There are many ways, the surface loses its heat through conduction, evaporation,radiation, and convection.The rate of convection depends on  the difference in temperature between the surface and the fluid surrounding the surface and the velocity of that fluid with respect to the surface. The air around the warm surface will be heated, an insulating  layer of warm air forms against the surface.The layer becomes a boundary between two. As the wind speed is high the surface cools down rapidly.

8. Il An 8.00 kg package in a mail-sorting room slides 2.00 m down a
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Normal force = m g cos 53 = 8 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * cos 53 = 47.1823 N

  no work is done by this force

Force friction = coeff friction * force normal = .4 * 47.1823 = 7.55 N

   work of friction = 7.55 * 2 m = 15.1 j

Force Downplane = mg sin 53 = 62.61  N

    work = 62.61 * 2 = 125.22 j

Net Force downplane =   force downplane - force friction = 55.06 N

net Work = force * distance = 55.06 N * 2 M = 110.12 j

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.8m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels
katovenus [111]

To solve this problem we will apply the laws of Mersenne. Mersenne's laws are laws describing the frequency of oscillation of a stretched string or monochord, useful in musical tuning and musical instrument construction. This law tells us that the velocity in a string is directly proportional to the root of the applied tension, and inversely proportional to the root of the linear density, that is,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here,

v = Velocity

\mu= Linear density (Mass per  unit length)

T = Tension

Rearranging to find the Period we have that

T = v^2 \mu

T = v^2 (\frac{m}{L})

As we know that speed is equivalent to displacement in a unit of time, we will have to

T = (\frac{L}{t}) ^2(\frac{m}{L})

T = (\frac{7.8}{0.83})^2 (\frac{0.49}{7.8})

T = 5.54N

Therefore the tension is 5.54N

Plz answer the question
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Ray A = Incidence ray

Ray B = Reflected ray

Explanation:

From the law of reflection,

Normal: This is the line that makes an angle of 90° with the reflecting surface.

Ray A is the incidence ray: This is the ray that srikes the surface of a reflecting surface. The angle formed between the normal and the incidence ray is called the incidence angle

Ray B is the reflected ray: This is the ray leaves the surface of a reflecting surface. The angle formed between the reflected ray and the normal is called reflected angle
