Answer:

......................

Explanation:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.

Calculate the acceleration of a 1400-kg car that stops from 39 km/h "on a dime" (on a distance of 1.7 cm).

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

$a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}$

Explanation:

The car is under an uniforly accelerated motion. So, we use the kinematic equations. We calculate the acceleration from the following equation:

$v_f^2=v_0^2+2ax$

We convert the initial speed to $\frac{m}{s}$

$39\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=10.83\frac{m}{s}$

The car stops, so its final speed is zero. Solving for a:

$a=\frac{v_0^2}{2x}\\a=-\frac{(10.83\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(1.7*10^{-2}m)}\\a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}$

How is heat related to phase changes

bekas [8.4K]

The heat is used to break the bonds between the ice molecules as they turn into a liquid phase. Since the average kinetic energy of the molecules does not change at the moment of melting, the temperature of the molecules does not change.

A proton, which is the nucleus of a hydrogen atom, can be modeled as a sphere with a diameter of 2.4 fm and a mass of 1.67 10-27

Step2247 [10]

For the answer to the question above asking to d<span>etermine the density of the proton.
</span>Density is mass over volume.

The volume of a sphere is 4πr³/3. r is half the diameter.

So the density would be 2.3×10¹⁷ kg/m³.
I hope my answer helped you. Feel free to ask more questions. Have a nice day!

An astronaut finds herself in a predicament in which she has become untethered from her shuttle. She figures that she could get

Blizzard [7]

In order to solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum, especially when there is an impact or the throwing of an object.

The equation that defines the linear moment is given by

$mV_i = (m-m_O)V_f - m_OV_O$

where,

m=Total mass

$m_O =$ Mass of Object

$V_i =$ Velocity before throwing

$V_f =$ Final Velocity

$V_O =$ Velocity of Object

Our values are:

$m_1=5.3kgm_2=7.9kg\\m_3=10.5kg\\m_A=75kg\\m_{Total}=m=98.7Kg$

Solving to find the final speed, after throwing the object we have

$V_f=\frac{mV_0+m_TV_O}{m-m_O}$

We have three objects. For each object a launch is made so the final mass (denominator) will begin to be subtracted successively. In addition, during each new launch the initial speed will be given for each object thrown again.

That way during each section the equations should be modified depending on the previous one, let's start:

A) $5.3Kg\rightarrow 15m/s$
