Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

Mass = density x volume

Volume of petrol = 4.2m³

Density of petrol = 0.3kgm⁻³

Mass of petrol = 4.2 x 0.3 = 1.26kg

So;

We can now find the volume of the alcohol

Volume of alcohol = $\frac{mass}{density}$

Mass of alcohol = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol = 0.4kgm⁻³

Volume of alcohol = $\frac{1.26}{0.4}$ = 3.15m³

Two children are throwing a ball back-and-forth straight across the back seat of a car. The ball is being thrown 7 mph relative

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

the ball will fly in AX direction, making angle of 8.84° from the motion of the car

Explanation:

Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the diagram below;

Now, Lets assume line AB represent the movement of the car,

AC is the movement of the ball been thrown back and forth in the back seat

Ax is the motion of the ball it flies off the window

so from the diagram, We can see triangle ABC

where AB is 45 mph and AC = 7 mph

and angle ∠CAB = 90°

using SOH CAH TOA

TOA; tanθ = Opposite / Adjacent

tanθ = Opposite / Adjacent

tan( ∠ ABC ) = AC / AB

we substitute

tan( ∠ ABC ) = 7 / 45

tan( ∠ ABC ) = 0.15555

( ∠ ABC ) = tan⁻¹ 0.15555

( ∠ ABC ) = 8.84°

Therefor, angle ( ∠ ABC ) is 8.84°

Meaning angle ( ∠ XAA' ) is also 8.84°

Therefore, the ball will fly in AX direction, making angle of 8.84° from the motion of the car

Jonathan must lift a 3000n rock using a lever. jonathan uses 300n of force to push down on the lever to move the rock. what is t

-Dominant- [34]

The load is the weight of the rock that Jonathan lifts:
$L=3000 N$
The effort instead is the force applied in input to the lever in order to lift the rock:
$E=300 N$

So, the ratio between load and effort for this exercise is
$\frac{L}{E}= \frac{3000 N}{300 N}=10$
So, the ratio is 10:1.

Two horizontal metal plates, each 10.0 cm square, are aligned 1.00 cm apart with one above the other. They are given equal-magni

Ber [7]

Answer:

a) motion is PARABOLIC, b) positive particle is accelerated towards the negative plate, c) x = 6.19 10⁹ m

Explanation:

This exercise looks at the motion of a positively charged particle in an electric field.

a) Since the field is vertical the acceleration in this direction is

F = m a

the electric force is

F = q E

we substitute

q E = m a

a = qE / m

the mass of the particle is m = 2.00 10-16 kg

a = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 2.02 10³ / 2.00 10⁻¹⁶ kg

a = 1,616 m / s²

on the x-axis there are no relationships because there are no forces.

Since the particle has velocities in both axes, its motion is PARABOLIC,

b) the positive particle is accelerated towards the negative plate,

The field is descending, for which the event is down

c) where hit the particle on the x-axis

they indicate that the particle leaves the center of the negative plate, for which we will fix our reference system at this point.

Let's find the components of the initial velocity.

sin θ = v_{oy} / v

cos θ = v₀ₓ / v

v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

v_{oy) = 1.02 10⁵ sin 37 = 0.6139 10⁵ m / s

v₀ₓ = 1.02 10⁵ cos 37 = 0.8146 10⁵ m / s

Let's find the time it takes to hit the negative plate

y = y₀I + v_{oy} t + ½ a and t2

in this case the positions are y = y₀ = 0 and the accelerations

a = - 1,616m/s2,

we substitute

0 = 0 + v_{oy} t - ½ a_y t²

v_{oy}= ½ a_y t

t = 2v_{oy} / a_y

let's calculate

t = 2 0.6139 10⁵ / 1.616

t = 7.597 10⁴s

in this time the particle travels a horizontal distance

x = v₀ₓ t

x = 0.8145 10⁵ 7.597 10⁴

x = 6.19 10⁹ m

the particle falls off the plate

What is the definition of gravity in simple terms?

Tema [17]

Answer:

Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects

1 : A force of attraction that tends to draw particles or bodies together.

2 : The attraction of bodies by the force of gravity toward the center of the earth.

3 : Great seriousness.
