Answer: 1.76 m/s²

Explanation:

F = mass x acceleration

0.44 N = (0.25)(a)

0.44/0.25 = 1.76

a = 1.76

An object is moving with a constant velocity of 278 m/s. How long will it take it to travel 7500 m, using the formula Delta X=Vt

rusak2 [61]

If the velocity is constant then the acceleration of the object is zero.
$a=0 (m/s^2)$
Thus when we apply the equation
$\Delta X=vt+(at^2/2)$
It remains
$\Delta X =vt$
or equivalent
$t=(\Delta X/v) =7500/278 =26.98 (seconds)$

A platinum ball weighing 100 g is removed from a furnace and dropped into 400 g of water at 0 degree C. If the equilibrium tempe

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

T = 1010 degree Celsius

Explanation:

mass of ball (Mb) = 100 g

mass of water (Mw) = 400 g

temp of water = 0 degree

specific heat of platinum (C) = 0.04 cal/g degree celsius

we can calculate the temperature of the furnace from the equation before

Mb x C x (temp of furnace (T) - equilibrium temp) = Mw x (equilibrium temp - temp of furnace)

100 x 0.04 x ( T - 10) = 400 x (10 - 0)

4 (T - 10) = 4000

T - 10 = 1000

T = 1010 degree Celsius

A river 800m wide flows at the rate of 5km/h . A swimmer who can swim at 10km/h in still water wants to cross the river straight

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

At an angle of $30^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

$R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}$
