Answer:

The speed of the raindrop  and the mosquito is 8.02 m/s.

Explanation:

mass of mosquito = m

mass of drop = 45 m

initial velocity of mosquito, u = 0 m/s  

initial velocity of drop,  u' = 8.2 m/s

During the inelastic collision, the momentum of the system is conserved.  

Let the speed of rain drop and the mosquito is v.

Use the conservation of momentum

m x u + 45 m x u' = (m +  45 m) v

m x 0 + 45 m x 8.2 = 46 m x v

v = 8.02 m/s

What is the emf of a battery that increases the electric potential energy of 0.060 CC of charge by 0.70 JJ as it moves it from t
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

emf = 11.667 V

Explanation:

Given: charge q = 0.060 C, electric potential energy E =0.70 J,

Solution :

by definition 1 volt = 1 joule per coulomb

so Voltage = emf = E/C

emf =  0.70 J / 0.060 C

emf = 11.667 V

Part Two: Criteria, Constraints, and Prioritizations
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Usually, a solution can have several criteria and constraints. Even though all are important, some criteria are more important than others. The same holds true for constraints. But what do you do if it's impossible for a solution to cover every criterion while avoiding every constraint? In cases like this, you can use prioritization. Listing criteria and constraints based on priority shows the relative importance of each. You will need to prioritize the criteria and constraints for each sub-problem so that you can design a solution for each one individually. Prioritization can help you compare two different possible solutions. For example, the criterion that cars travel at 15 mph through the neighborhood might be a higher priority than the constraint that homeowners are only willing to spend $10,000 on this issue. If this is the case, you would want to generate solutions that also follow the priority in mind. All criteria are important, but engineers must sometimes make a trade-off, which is a compromise or change in one or more criteria or constraints so that they can be met at the same time. This is where prioritization comes in handy as it helps determine the trade-offs. A solution that is doing a better job of meeting one criterion may result in not completely meeting another criterion. Prioritization will help you choose which solution to go with.

A 7.99 g sample of hcn is found to contain 0.296 g of h and 4.14 g of n.Find the mass of carbon in a sample of hcn with a mass o
Thepotemich [5.8K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Mass of C in 3.40 g of HCN =1.51 gram.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Mass of sample of HCN = 7.99 g

  Mass of H in 7.99 g of HCN = 0.296 g

  Mass of N in 7.99 g of HCN = 4.14 g

  Mass of C in 7.99 g of HCN = (7.99-0.296-4.14) = 3.554 g

  Now mass of HCN = 3.40 g

  Mass of C in 3.40 g of HCN = \frac{3.554}{7.99} *3.40 =1.51 g

 So mass of C in 3.40 g of HCN =1.51 gram.

What adaptation of a cheetah is shown in the image?
pychu [463]

The adaptation of a cheetah is shown in the image which shows it running is its long and strong legs to run fast which is denoted as option B.

<h3>What is Adaptation?</h3>

These are the physical and behavioral features which ensures that they survive in their changing environment.

Cheetahs are known to have long and strong legs which is the reason why it runs at a very high speed.
