5 0

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

This is a trick question, the mass of the wrench would be 0 due to it being in space and has no gravitational pull to weight it down. And since acceleration is defined as the rate and change of velocity with no respect of time and the wrench is moving at a constant velocity, that means the velocity is 0. and since F = m*a it would be F = 0 * 0 = 0 N

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Upper disk rotates at a constant angular velocity. The velocity at any height from stationery disk, say at x metres

U_o=v(\frac {x}{h}) where v is tangential velocity at radius r from the centre of disk

U_o=r\omega (\frac {x}{h})

The radial component of velocity is given as

U_r=0

The z component of velocity is also given as  

W=0

Total velocity, v= r\omega (\frac {x}{h})\hat e_{o}

A diver rises quickly to the surface from a 5.0 m depth. If she did not exhale the gas from her lunds before rising, by what fac
Inessa [10]

Answer:

1.5 times

Explanation:

h = depth of the diver initially = 5 m

\rho = density of seawater = 1030 kg m⁻³

P_{i} = Initial pressure at the depth

P_{f} = final pressure after rising = 101325 Pa

Initial pressure at the depth is given as

P_{i} = P_{f} + \rho gh\\P_{i} = 101325 + (1030) (9.8) (5)\\P_{i} = 151795 Pa

V_{i} = Initial volume at the depth

V_{f} = Final volume after rising

Since the temperature remains constant, we have

P_{f} V_{f} = P_{i} V_{i}\\(101325) V_{f} = (151795) V_{i}\\V_{f} = 1.5 V_{i}
