Answer:

C

Explanation:

Light travels in straight lines

Shadows are evidence of light travelling in straight lines. An object blocks light so that it can't reach the surface where we see the shadow.

On a cold winter day, a penny (mass 2.50 g) and a nickel (mass 5.00 g) are lying on the smooth (frictionless) surface of a froze
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

1.566 m/s in the same direction

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of penny = 0.0025 kg

m_2 = Mass of nickel = 0.005 kg

u_1 = Initial Velocity of penny = 2.35 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of nickel = 0 m/s

v_1 = Final Velocity of penny

v_2 = Final Velocity of nickel

As momentum and Energy is conserved

m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}

{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}u_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}u_{2}^{2}={\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}

From the two equations we get

v_{1}=\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\frac{0.0025-0.005}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{2\times 0.5}{0.4005+0.5}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_1=-0.78333\ m/s

The final velocity of the penny is 0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

v_{2}=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 0.0025}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{0.005-0.0025}{0.005+0.0025}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_2=1.566\ m/s

The final velocity of the nickel is 1.566 m/s in the same direction

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355 - L cans per min
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. To find the mass flow rate.

We use= 220 x 0.355/ 60

= 1.3kg/s

B. Volume flowrate is = mass flowrate / density

But density is 1000kg/m³

= 1.3kg/s/ 1000kg/m³

= 0.0013m³/s

C. Flow speead at 1

= 0.0013m³/s / (2 x 10-2m)²

= 6.5m/s

D.flow speed at 2

0.0013m³/s / (8x 10-2m)²

=1.63m/s

E. Gauge pressure at point 1

= 152+ 1/1000 ( 1.63)²- 6.5² + 1000( 9.8) ( 0-1.35)

= 119kpa

Toby's Trucking Company determined that on an annual basis, the distance traveled per truck is normally distributed, with a mean
Reptile [31]

Answer: 56994 miles

Explanation:

Given : Toby's Trucking Company determined that on an annual basis, the distance traveled per truck is normally distributed with

\mu=50,000\text{ miles}

Standard deviation : \sigma=12,000\text{ miles}

Let a be the distance traveled by at least 72% of the trucks.

Let X be the random variable that represents the distance traveled by a truck

Then P(x\geq a)=0.72

The critical value corresponds to p-value 0.72 :z=0.5828415

Also, z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

\Rightarrow\ 0.5828415=\dfrac{a-50000}{12000}\\\\\Rightarrow\ a=12000(0.5828415)+50000=56994.098\approx56994

Hence, 56994 miles will be traveled by at least (equal to and more than) 72% of the trucks .
