Physics
1 answer:
Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c. A number and a unit

Explanation:

A scalar is a real number. We often use the term scalar in the context of vectors or matrices, to stress that a variable such as a is just a real number and not a vector or matrix.

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.5 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid
bixtya [17]

Answer:

u_{s}=0.56

Explanation:

For the cat to stay in place on the merry go round without sliding the magnitude of maximum static friction must be equal to magnitude of centripetal force

F_{s.max}=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\

Where the r is the radius of merry-go-round and v is the tangential speed

but

F_{s.max}=u_{s}F_{N}=u_{s}mg

So we have

u_{s}mg=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\ u_{s}=\frac{v^2}{gr}\\ Where\\v=\frac{2\pi R}{T} \\So\\u_{s}=\frac{(\frac{2\pi R}{T} )^2}{gr} \\u_{s}=\frac{4\pi^2 r}{gT^2}

Substitute the given values

So

u_{s}=\frac{4\pi^2 5.5m}{(9.8m/s^2)(6.3s)^2} \\u_{s}=0.56

heat engine operating between 100 °C and 700 °C has an efficiency equal to 40% of the maximum theoretical efficiency. How much e
ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

Theoretical efficiency = T₁ - T₂ / T₁ where T₁ and T₂ is absolute temperature of hot and cold end of the heat engine.

= 600 / (273 + 700 )

= 600 / 973

= .6166

operating efficiency = 40% of .6166

= .4 x .6166

= .2466 = 24.66 %

efficiency = work output / heat input

= 5000 / heat input = .2466

heat input = 5000 / .2466

= 20275.75 J .

HEAT EXTRACED = 20275.75 J.
