Answer:

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made

Explanation:

The design of an experiment is to place the beaker in the microwave, with a good amount of water (approximately ⅔ of its capacity) and turn it on for small periods of time, generally the minimum is 30 s, quickly open the microwave, place a thermometer or better yet an infrared thermometer to measure the temperature of the water; repeat this several times.

The advantage of the infrared thermometer is that it reduces the transfer of heat between the water and the thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made.

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The main precaution that must be taken is not to open the microwave while it is on.

A North American tourist takes his 26.0 W, 120 V AC razor to Europe, finds a special adapter, and plugs it into 220 V AC. Assumi
Irina-Kira [14]

Explanation:

For North America,

Power, P = 26 W

Voltage of AC razor, V = 120 V

For Europe,

Voltage of AC razor, V' = 220 V

The power of razor in North America is given by :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{120^2}{26}\\\\R=553.84\ \Omega

Let P' is the power consumed by razor in Europe. Now,

P'=\dfrac{V'^2}{R}\\P'=\dfrac{220^2}{553.84}\\\\P'=87.38\ \Omega

So, the razor consumed 87.38 watts of power as it is ruined.

Two forces of magnitudes 4.0 Newtons and 3.0 Newtons pull on a box. The forces make an angle of 40° with each other. What is the
leonid [27]

Answer:

6.6 N

Explanation:

Let's take the direction of the force of 4.0 N as positive x-direction. This means that the force of 3.0 N is at 40 degrees above it. So the components of the two forces along the x- and y-directions are:

F_{1x} = 4.0 N\\F_{1y} = 0

F_{2x} = 3.0 N cos 40^{\circ}=2.3 N\\F_{2y} = 3.0 N sin 40^{\circ} = 1.9 N

So the resultant has components

F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=4.0 N +2.3 N = 6.3 N\\F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y} = 0 + 1.9 N = 1.9 N

So the magnitude of the resultant is

F=\sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}=\sqrt{(6.3)^2+(1.9)^2}=6.6 N

And in order for the body to be balanced, the third force must be equal and opposite (in direction) to this force: so, the magnitude of the third force must be 6.6 N.

A 2.0 kg particle moves in a circle of radius 3.1 m. As you look down on the plane of its orbit, the particle is initially movin
Ghella [55]

Answer

given,

L(t) = 10 - 3.5 t

mass of particle = 2 Kg

radius of the circle = 3.1 m

a) torque

    τ = \dfrac{dL}{dt}

    τ = \dfrac{d}{dt}(10 - 3.5 t)

    τ = -3.5 N.m

Particle rotates clockwise as i look down the plane. Hence, its angular velocity is downward.

L decreases the angular acceleration upward. so, net torque is upward.

b) Moment of inertia of the particle

    I = m R^2

    I = 2 x 3.1²

    I = 19.22 kg.m²

    L = I ω

    ω = \dfrac{L}{I}

    ω = \dfrac{10 - 3.5 t}{19.22}

    ω = 0.520 - 0.182 t

  A = 0.52 rad/s             B = -0.182 rad/s²

A track coach records how long it takes a sprinter to run 100 meters the track coach is recording what dimension of behavior
melamori03 [73]
Behavior has at least six dimensions, which are: frequency, duration, latency, topography, locus, and force. Since the coach is recording how long it takes, the track coach is recording the duration behavior because duration is a synonym for time. Duration is your answer.
