GaryK [48]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The acceleration of the elephant is 5m/s^2 (squared).

Explanation:

Given: Force=200N, Mass=1000kg

Required: acceleration=?

Equation: a=F/m

Solution: a=200N/1000kg

Answer: a=5m/s^2

A child's first bicycle has 12-inch tires. These tires have a 6-inch radius. How fa r does the bicycle move forward each time th
Lilit [14]

Answer:

a. s = 0.96 m

b. s = 2.15 m

Explanation:

a.

The relationship between the linear displacement and the angular displacement is given as follows:

s = r\theta

where,

s = linear distance covered = ?

r = radius of wheel = (6 in)(0.0254 m/1 in) = 0.1524 m

θ = angular displacement = (1 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 2π rad

Therefore,

s = (0.1524\ m) 2\pi

<u>s = 0.96 m</u>

<u></u>

b.

Assuming, we have to find linear displacement here, as well:

s = r\theta

where,

s = linear distance covered = ?

r = radius of wheel = (13.5 in)(0.0254 m/1 in) = 0.3429 m

θ = angular displacement = (1 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 2π rad

Therefore,

s = (0.3429 \ m) 2\pi

<u>s = 2.15 m</u>

Two lightweight rods 24 cm in length are mounted perpendicular to an axle and at 180 ∘ to each other. At the end of each rod is
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Angular momentum ( L ) = moment of inertia x angular velocity ( I X ω )

Moment of inertia of two  480 g masses about axle = 2 x mr²  = 2 x 480 x10⁻³ x( 24 x 10 ⁻ 2 )²  = 0. 552960  kg m².

Angular velocity = 5 rad / s.

Angular momentum = 0.552960 x 5 = 2.765 kg m2.

The direction of angular momentum will be along axle.So vector angular

momentum  makes zero degree  with axle.

In one sentence describe how the electricity in an action potential is generated
vova2212 [387]

Due to influx of potassium ions, electricity is generated in axon of a neuron.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Axon membrane is the semi permeable membrane that is full of potassium and sodium channels. There’s also Sodium Potassium ATPase pumps. When there’s an impulse coming through the synapse, the potassium channels open. This leads to influx of sodium from outside the membrane to inside it. Then the membrane becomes positive.

Then the electricity is generated and its conducted from one part to another. After the impulse is conducted, the sodium potassium pumps come in action which transports 3 sodium inside and 2 potassium outside in consumption to an ATP.

Dylan has two cubes of iron. The larger cube has twice the mass of the smaller cube. He measures the smaller cube. Its mass is 2
lbvjy [14]
Density = mass/volume, volume = mass/density.
Since the mass of the small cube equals 20 and the mass of the large cube is double it would be 40.
Now plug in volume = 40 g/(7.87 g/cm^3).
Thus giving you a volume 5.08 cm^3
