Answer:

Newton first law states that a body at rest remains at rest or if it is motion, remains in motion at a constant unless acted upon by a external force

Newton’s first law states that an object will not change its motion unless it is acted on by an unbalanced force, aka law of inertia.

A carpenter is driving a 15.0-g steel nail into a board. His 1.00-kg hammer is moving at 8.50 m/s when it strikes the nail. Half
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: The increase in temperature of the nail after the three blows is 8.0636 Kelvins. The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the hammer ,K.E.=

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}1.00 kg\times (8.50 m/s)^2=36.125 J

Half of the kinetic energy of the hammer is transformed into heat in the nail.

Energy transferred to the nail in one blow =

\frac{1}{2}K.E.=\frac{1}{2}\times 36.125 J=18.0625 J

Total energy transferred after 3 blows,Q =3\times 18.0625 J=54.1875 J

Mass of the nail = 15 g = 0.015 kg

Change in temperature =\Delta T

Specif heat of the steel = c = 448 J/kg K

Q=mc\Delta T

54.1875 J=0.015 kg\times 448 J/kg K\times \Delta T

\Delta T=8.0636 K\approx 8.1 K

The increase in temperature of the nail after the three blows is 8.1  Kelvins.Hence, correct option is (d).

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.
Sidana [21]
This B: False, because the definition is lacking.  

Force is when two objects interact with one another causing it to either move or not move. In our daily lives there are a lot of times force is exerted upon us, rather force is everywhere and here are the evidences:  

*Pushing a cart
*Pushing a wall
*Hitting a baseball bat
*Apple falling down from a tree.
*Balls hitting one another
*A swinging pendulum
*Throwing a paper with stone above it
*Breaking of glass in the floor
*Falling of leaves on the grass <span> </span>

Meteor Infrasound A meteor that explodes in the atmosphere creates infrasound waves that can travel multiple times around the gl
kherson [118]

Answer:

0.04455 Hz

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Wavelength, λ = 6.5km = 6500m

Distance travelled by the wave, x = 8830km = 8830000m

Time taken, t = 8.47hours = 8.47 * 3600 = 30492 secs

First, we find the speed of the wave:

Speed, v = distance/time = x/t

v = 8830000/30492 = 289.58 m/s

Frequency, f, is given as velocity divided by wavelength:

f = v/λ

f = 289.58/6500

f = 0.04455 Hz

Three resistors of 100 W, 3900 W, and 1000 W are connected in series across a 200-V battery. What is the voltage drop across the
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

40 V

Explanation:

 I will assume that  the resistors are

           100 and 3900 and 1000 OHMS    <=====(NOT W)

In series , the resistances add together 100 + 3900 + 1000 = 5000 ohms total

V = IR

I = V / R      so the total current will be   200 v / 5000 ohms = .04 amps

                   this is the current through all of the resistors

      so for the   1000 ohm resistor     V = IR     .04 (1000) = 40 V

A real gas will behave most like an ideal gas under conditions of ________.
KengaRu [80]

Answer: high temperature and low pressure

Explanation:

The Ideal Gas equation is:  

P.V=n.R.T  

Where:  

P is the pressure of the gas  

V is the volume of the gas

n the number of moles of gas  

R=0.0821\frac{L.atm}{mol.K} is the gas constant  

T is the absolute temperature of the gas in Kelvin

According to this law, molecules in gaseous state do not exert any force among them (attraction or repulsion) and the volume of these molecules is small, therefore negligible in comparison with the volume of the container that contains them.  

Now, real gases can behave approximately to an ideal gas, under the conditions described above and taking into account the following:  

When <u>temperature is high</u> a real gas approximates to ideal gas, because the molecules move quickly, preventing the repulsion or attraction forces to take effect.  In addition, at <u>low pressures</u>, the volume of molecules is negligible.
