Answer:

0 m/s^2

Explanation:

Use a formula to answer the question

d = r * t

The object is not changing speed at any time, or if it is we are not told.  The rate is the speed.

8 = r * 1 second

8 m/sec = r

The initial speed is 8 and the final rate is 8. There is no change. So when you use this formula

a = (vf - vi)/t we get a = (8 - 8)/1 = 0

There is no acceleration because there is no change in speed.

A stone is dropped from the roof of a high building. a second stone is dropped 1.50 s later. how far apart are the stones when t
Aleksandr [31]

2nd stone time = 13.0/9.8 = 1.33 seconds

distance = 0.5*9.8*1.33^2 = 8.67 meters

1st stone time = 1.33+1.5 = 2.83 seconds

distance = 0.5*9.8*2.83^2 = 39.24 meters

39.24-8.67 = 30.57 meters apart

Calculate the percentage increase in length of a wire of diameter 2.2 mm stretched by a load of
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.21%

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 100 kg

Diameter; d = 2.2 mm = 2.2 × 10^(-3) m

Young's modulus; E = 12.5 x 10^(10) N/m².

Formula for area is;

A = πd²/4

A = (π/4) x (2.2 x 10^(-3))²

A = 3.8 x 10^(-6) m²

Force; F = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity and has a constant value of 9.8 m/s²

F = 100 × 9.8

F = 980 N

Formula for young's modulus is;

E = Stress/strain

Formula for stress = F/A

Formula for strain = ΔL/L

Thus;

E = (F/A)/(ΔL/L)

Making ΔL/L the subject, we have;

ΔL/L = (F/A)/E

Plugging in the relevant values;

ΔL/L = 980/(3.8 x 10^(-6) × 12.5 × 10^(10))

ΔL/L = 0.0021

Then percentage increase in length of a wire = 0.0021 × 100% = 0.21%

An electric heater supplies 5kw of power to atank of water assume all the energy supplied is converted into heat energy and the
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<em>8hours 45minutes</em>

Explanation:

Amount of heat energy used up by the electric substance = heat gained by the water.

Amount of heat energy used up by the electric substance = Power * Time

heat gained by the water. = mcΔt

m is the mass of the water in kg

c is the specific heat capacity

Δt is the change in temperature

Given parameters

Power = 5kW = 5000W

mass of water m = 500kg

c = 4200J/kgC

Δt = 100°C - 25°C = 75°C

Required

Time taken

Substituting the given parameters into the formula

Pt = mcΔt

5000t = 500*4200*75

5000t = 157,500,000

Divide both sides by 5000

t =  157,500,000/5000

t = 31,500 secs

t = (31,500/3600)hrs

t = 8.75hours

t = 8hours 45minutes

<em>Hence it takes 8hours 45minutes to heat 500 kg of water in the tank from 25c to 100c</em>
