Why does your boat float but not your ring?
Damm [24]

The air that is inside a ship is much less dense than water. That's what keeps it floating! ... The closer the total density of the ship is to the density of the same volume of water, the greater the amount of the ship that will be in the water.

Why are chemical processes unable to produce the same amount of energy flowing out of the sun as nuclear fusion?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the major differences between nuclear reactions and chemical reactions is that nuclear reactions involve larger amount of energy than chemical energy. <u>This is because the force between the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is much higher than the force of attraction between electrons and the positively charged nucleus, hence nuclear reactions involves/requires a larger amount of energy (because it's reactions involve the nucleus) than chemical reactions (because it's reactions involve the electrons)</u>.

Thus, during nuclear fusion, two light nuclei are bombarded against one another to produce a larger/heavier nuclei with the release of large amount of energy (because the forces between the protons and neutrons are much higher) unlike when two atoms/molecules are chemically combined together to form a new molecule with the rearrangement of electrons in the valence shells of the participating molecules.

A 1,508 kg car rolling on a horizontal surface has a speed of 20.8 km/hr when it strikes a horizontal coiled spring and is broug
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Approximately 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}, assuming friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible.

Explanation:

Let m denote the mass of the vehicle. Let v denote the initial velocity of the vehicle. Let k denote the spring constant (needs to be found.) Let x denote the maximum displacement of the spring.

Convert velocity of the vehicle to standard units (meters per second):

\begin{aligned}v &= 20.8\; {\rm km \cdot h^{-1}} \times \frac{1000\; {\rm m}}{1\; {\rm km}} \times \frac{1\; {\rm h}}{3600\; {\rm s}} \\ &\approx 1.908\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Initial kinetic energy ({\rm KE}) of the vehicle:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2}\end{aligned}.

When the vehicle is brought to a rest, the elastic potential energy (\text{EPE}) stored in the spring would be:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}.

By the conservation of energy, if the friction between the vehicle and the ground is negligible, the initial \text{KE} of the vehicle should be equal to the {\rm EPE} of the vehicle. In other words:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\, m \, v^{2} &= \frac{1}{2}\, k\, x^{2}\end{aligned}.

Rearrange this equation to find an expression for k, the spring constant:

\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}}\end{aligned}.

Substitute in the given values m = 1508\; {\rm kg}, v \approx 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}, and x = 6.87\; {\rm m}:

\begin{aligned}k &= \frac{m\, v }{x^{2}} \\ &\approx \frac{1508\; {\rm kg} \times 1.908\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{(6.87\; {\rm m})^{2}} \\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2} \cdot m^{-3}}\\ &\approx 1.79 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm N \cdot m^{-1}}\end{aligned}

Cellus
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Its initial position was 471 m.

Explanation:

We have,

Final position of the object is 327 m

Displacement of the object is -144 m

It is required to find its initial position. The difference of final and initial position is equal to the displacement of the object. So,

d=\text{final position}-\text{initial position}\\\\-144=327-\text{initial position}\\\\\text{initial position}=327+144\\\\\text{initial position}=471\ m

So, its initial position was 471 m.
