Answer:

yes

Explanation:

Water HEATS up and turns into steam. Steam is made from HEAT. Granite can be compromised by HEAT. Lead compounds can be good insulators.

You're driving a vehicle of mass 1350 kg and you need to make a turn on a flat road. The radius of curvature of the turn is 71 m

sergey [27]

Answer:

$v=12.65\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of vehicle, $m=1350\ kg$

radius of curvature, $r=71\ m$

coefficient of friction, $\mu=0.23$

<u>During the turn to prevent the skidding of the vehicle its centripetal force must be equal to the opposite balancing frictional force:</u>

$m.\frac{v^2}{r} =\mu.N$

where:

$\mu=$ coefficient of friction

$N=$ normal reaction force due to weight of the car

$v=$ velocity of the car

$1350\times \frac{v^2}{71} =0.23\times (1350\times 9.8)$

$v=12.65\ m.s^{-1}$ is the maximum velocity at which the vehicle can turn without skidding.

A charged particle enters a uniform magnetic field B with a velocity v at right angles to the field. It moves in a circle with p

alukav5142 [94]

A) d. 10T

When a charged particle moves at right angle to a uniform magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude os given by

$F=qvB$

where q is the charge of the particle, v is the velocity, B is the strength of the magnetic field.

This force acts as a centripetal force, keeping the particle in a circular motion - so we can write

$qvB = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

which can be rewritten as

$v=\frac{qB}{mr}$

The velocity can be rewritten as the ratio between the lenght of the circumference and the period of revolution (T):

$\frac{2\pi r}{T}=\frac{qB}{mr}$

So, we get:

$T=\frac{2\pi m r^2}{qB}$

We see that this the period of revolution is directly proportional to the mass of the particle: therefore, if the second particle is 10 times as massive, then its period will be 10 times longer.

B) $a. f/10$

The frequency of revolution of a particle in uniform circular motion is

$f=\frac{1}{T}$

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

We see that the frequency is inversely proportional to the period. Therefore, if the period of the more massive particle is 10 times that of the smaller particle:

T' = 10 T

Then its frequency of revolution will be:

$f'=\frac{1}{T'}=\frac{1}{(10T)}=\frac{f}{10}$

Which of the following statements is most closely associated with Einstein's general theory of relativity?

Fudgin [204]

The answer is the first one. That's because the general theory of relativity is the thing experiencing whatever is experiencing relative to something else. The second answer is just plain wrong. The third answer is just a constant, and doesn't relate to experiencing anything. And the fourth answer is a force between two objects, and it has no second comparison. The first answer is how a subject experiences two different things.

A planetâs moon revolves around the planet with a period of 39 Earth days in an approximately circular orbit of radius of 4.8Ã10

Alchen [17]

Answer:

v = 895 m/s

Explanation:

Time period is given as 39 Earth Days

$T = 39 days \times 24 hr \times 3600 s$

$T = 3369600 s$

now the radius of the orbit is given as

$r = 4.8 \times 10^8 m$

so the total path length is given as

$L = 2 \pi r$

$L = 2\pi (4.8 \times 10^8)$

$L = 3.015 \times 10^9$

now the speed will be given as

$v = \frac{L}{T}$

$v = \frac{3.015 \times 10^9}{3369600}$

$v = 895 m/s$
