Answer:

The extreme difference between the hot chimney and the cold knife makes the chimney expand and contract so quickly it cracks.

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

Answer:

When a blade of cold knife is touched to hot glass chimney there is a sudden drop of temperature on the spot where the blade touches. As a result it cracks.

Explanation:

When a blade of cold knife is touched to hot glass chimney there is a sudden drop of temperature on the spot where the blade touches. This decrease in temperature makes the glass to contract. The stress developed on the site of contraction is responsible for the cracking of the glass chimney.

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{p'}$
$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{15.8} + \frac{1}{4.2}$
$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{2.1}{33.18} + \frac{7.9}{33.18}$
$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{10}{33.18}$
Product of extremes equals product of means:
$10*f = 1*33.18$
$10f = 33.18$
$f = \frac{33.18}{10}$
$\boxed{\boxed{f = 3.318\:cm}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

A particle starts from rest and has an acceleration function 5 − 10t m/s2 . (a) What is the velocity function? (b) What is the p

frez [133]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A particle starts from rest and has an acceleration function as :

$a(t)=(5-10t)\ m/s^2$

(a) Since, $a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

v = velocity

$dv=a.dt$

$v=\int(a.dt)$

$v=\int(5-10t)(dt)$

$v=5t-\dfrac{10t^2}{2}=5t-5t^2$

(b) $v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

x = position

$x=\int v.dt$

$x=\int (5t-5t^2)dt$

$x=\dfrac{5}{2}t^2-\dfrac{5}{3}t^3$

(c) Velocity function is given by :

$v=5t-5t^2$

$5t-5t^2=0$

t = 1 seconds

So, at t = 1 second the velocity of the particle is zero.

5. If one object has a greater speed than a second object. does the first necessarily have a greater acceleration? Explain, usin

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

5. not necessarily so that the first object could have left with initial velocity and the second not, so even if the second has a greater acceleration its velocity is less than that of the first

6. The acceleration of the motorcycle is

SI System Reductions

Vo = 80 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 22.2 m / s

Vf = 90 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 25 m / s

Vf = Vo + at at = Vf-Vo

am = (Vf-Vo) / t

am = (25 -22.2) / t = 2.8 / t

am= 2.8/t

For the bike we have

Vf = 10 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 2.78 m / s

Vo = 0

ab = (Vf -Vo) / t

ab = (2.78 -0) / t

ab = 2.8/t

Since time is the same for both of us, if we round to Significant figures the two accelerations are equal

7. If when an object is slowing or slowing down.

For example, a car goes north and must stop at the traffic light, the acceleration of the brakes goes south

8. Yes, since an object can go to the left and the acceleration to the right, but the object will lose speed over time

9. in the launch of projectiles the acceleration is negative and the speed after half the path is also negative

10. Car B must be moving to car A, because if they leave together B has more acceleration, bone that travels the distance at the same time

11. When we have friction, the velocity of an object increases by an external force, but the friction also increases the acceleration, but since it is positive, the velocity increases until the acceleration is zero and hence the velocity remains constant.

What condition is required for cloud formation in the atmosphere?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: To form a cloud, the air that rises must cool to the point where some of the water vapor molecules "clump together" at a faster pace than they are pulled apart by their thermal energy. These molecules then condense to form the clouds and water droplets.
