A cyclist is travelling eastwards at a velocity

Physics
1 answer:
VMariaS [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.02 m/s^2

Explanation:

change in velocity= 4.5m/s - 2.3m/s = 2.2 m/s

acceleration= change in velocity/change in time

acceleration= 2.2/120= 0.0183

= 0.02 (to 2 significant figures)

A 21.6−g sample of an alloy at 93.00°C is placed into 50.0 g of water at 22.00°C in an insulated coffee-cup calorimeter with a h
IrinaK [193]

Answer : The specific heat capacity of the alloy 1.422J/g^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

C_1 = specific heat of alloy = ?

C_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of alloy = 21.6 g

m_2 = mass of water = 50.0 g

T_f = final temperature of system = 31.10^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of alloy = 93.00^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 22.00^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

21.6g\times c_1\times (31.10-93.00)^oC=-50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (31.10-22.00)^oC

c_1=1.422J/g^oC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the alloy 1.422J/g^oC

Friction occurs when microscopic hills and valleys stick together<br><br> true or false
Reika [66]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth. Rougher surfaces have more friction between them. Heavier objects also have more friction because they press together with greater force. Friction produces heat because it causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster and have more energy.

How are balanced &amp; unbalanced forces related to net force?
Levart [38]

Answer:

An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. ... A net force = unbalanced force. If however, the forces are balanced (in equilibrium) and there is no net force, the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant.

A 34n force is applied to a 213kg mass how much does the mass accelerate
motikmotik
We Know, F = m*a
Here, F = 34 N
m = 213 Kg

Substitute their values in the equation,
34 = 213 * a
a = 34/213
a = 0.159 m/s²

So, your final answer & the acceleration of the object would be 0.159 m/s²

Hope this helps!

The moon has a diameter of 3.48 x 106 m and is a distance of 3.85 x 108 m from the earth. The sun has a diameter of 1.39 x 109 m
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.00903 rad

0.00926 rad

6.268\times 10^{-6}

Explanation:

s = Diameter of the object

r = Distance between the Earth and the object

Angle subtended is given by

\theta=\frac{s}{r}

For the Moon

\theta_m=\dfrac{3.48\times 10^6}{3.85\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \theta_m=0.00903\ rad

The angle subtended by the Moon is 0.00903 rad

For the Sun

\theta_s=\dfrac{1.39\times 10^9}{1.5\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow \theta_s=0.00926\ rad

The angle subtended by the Sun is 0.00926 rad

Area ratio is given by

\frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{\pi r_m^2}{\pi r_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{d_m^2}{d_s^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=\dfrac{(3.48\times 10^{6})^2}{(1.39\times 10^9)^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{A_m}{A_s}=6.268\times 10^{-6}

The area ratio is 6.268\times 10^{-6}
