Answer:

Fundamental unit is any unit that is not dependent on other units and other units can be derived from them

Explanation:

Units such as Kilogram, Mass and Time are said to be fundamental units because they are independent.

Differences between Mass and weight;

1. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

2. Mass is a scalar quantity while weight is a vector quantity

A 1-megabit computer memory chip contains many 27 fF capacitors. Each capacitor has a plate area of 3.09 × 10−11 m 2 . Determine

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Plate separation of each capacitor is 101.132 °A

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the capacitance in empty space as a function of distance (square parallel plates) is:

$C=\epsilon_{0}\frac{Area}{distance}$

clearing for distance:

$distance=\epsilon_0 \frac{Area}{Capacitance} \\\\\epsilon_0=8.8542(10)^{-12}C^2/Nm\\\\Area=3.09(10)^{-11}m^2\\Capacitance=27(10)^{-15}F\\\\Replacing\\\\distance=\frac{8.8542(10)^{-12}*3.09(10)^{-11}}{27(10)^{-15}} =1.0133(10)^{-8}m\\\\In A\\distance= 101.132 A$

Two workers are sliding 300 kg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 400 N while the ot

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The kinetic coefficient of friction of the crate is 0.235.

Explanation:

As a first step, we need to construct a free body diagram for the crate, which is included below as attachment. Let supposed that forces exerted on the crate by both workers are in the positive direction. According to the Newton's First Law, a body is unable to change its state of motion when it is at rest or moves uniformly (at constant velocity). In consequence, magnitud of friction force must be equal to the sum of the two external forces. The equations of equilibrium of the crate are:

$\Sigma F_{x} = P+T-\mu_{k}\cdot N = 0$ (Ec. 1)

$\Sigma F_{y} = N - W = 0$ (Ec. 2)

Where:

$P$ - Pushing force, measured in newtons.

$T$ - Tension, measured in newtons.

$\mu_{k}$ - Coefficient of kinetic friction, dimensionless.

$N$ - Normal force, measured in newtons.

$W$ - Weight of the crate, measured in newtons.

The system of equations is now reduced by algebraic means:

$P+T -\mu_{k}\cdot W = 0$

And we finally clear the coefficient of kinetic friction and apply the definition of weight:

$\mu_{k} =\frac{P+T}{m\cdot g}$

If we know that $P = 400\,N$ , $T = 290\,N$ , $m = 300\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then:

$\mu_{k} = \frac{400\,N+290\,N}{(300\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}$

$\mu_{k} = 0.235$

The kinetic coefficient of friction of the crate is 0.235.

What are at least three types of energy involving a microwave

timama [110]

I'm pretty sure what you are trying to ask for is radiative energy, light energy, and electronic energy.
Radiative since the microwave is releasing radiation,
Light since there is light inside the microwave,
Electronic since it is plugged in and uses electricity.
You can also use sound, but I don't think every microwave makes sound.

vovangra [49]

Answer

Hi,

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation.

Good luck!
