Answer: K

Explanation:

From the temperature readings given, we should note that 0°F is thesame as 32°C. Therefore, 0°C is colder than 0°F.

We should note that at 0K which is written as K, it is the coolest and it is often called the absolute zero because at this degree, there can't be anything that's colder.

Therefore, the answer is K

A 3.0-kg object moves to the right with a speed of 2.0 m/s. It collides in a perfectly elastic collision with a 6.0-kg object mo

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of object 1, m₁ = 3 kg

Speed of object 1, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of object 2, m₂ = 6 kg

Speed of object 2, v₂ = -1 m/s (it is moving in left)

Since, the collision is elastic. The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the kinetic energy of the system after the collision. Let it is E. So,

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_1^2$

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\ kg\times (2\ m/s)^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6\ kg\times (-1\ m/s)^2$

E = 9 J

So, the kinetic energy of the system after the collision is 9 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

A mass on a spring with k=88.7 N/m oscillates 15 times in 9.24s. what is the objects mass? unit=kg?

sweet [91]

The mass on the spring is 0.86 kg

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is given by the equation

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

where

m is the mass

k is the spring constant

In this problem, we have:

k = 88.7 N/m is the spring constant

The system makes 15 oscillations in 9.24 s: therefore, the period of the system is

$T=\frac{9.24}{15}=0.62 s$

Now we can re-arrange the first equation to solve for the mass:

$m=k(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2=(88.7)(\frac{0.62}{2\pi})^2=0.86 kg$

Star A and Star B have measured stellar parallax of 1.0 arc second and 0.75 arc second, respectively. Which star is closer? How

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Star A is closer than Star B

Explanation:

As we know that in parallax method of distance measurement the angle subtended by the star when it covers a distance of one Parsec arc length, it is known as parallax angle

Here we can say

$angle = \frac{1 Parsec}{distance}$
