Answer:Due to change in direction

Explanation:

Given

Initially train has traveled a 100 km in North and after exchanging some railroad cars, it traveled 100 in south.

The velocity of the train changes as it direction of motion changes. Velocity is the vector quantity which require direction and magnitude for its reperesentation.

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.
kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy w = mg  [m is the mass of the body]

we have m = 50 kg.

                             Hence w = 50 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

                                             =490 N kg m/s^2

                                              = 490 N

Here newton [N] is the unit of force.

A heat pump with a COP of 3.15 is used to heat an air-tight house. When running, the heat pump consumes 5 kW of power. If the te
Jet001 [13]

Answer: 1026s, 17.1m

Explanation:

Given

COP of heat pump = 3.15

Mass of air, m = 1500kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 7°C

Final temperature, T2 = 22°C

Power of the heat pump, W = 5kW

The amount of heat needed to increase temperature in the house,

Q = mcΔT

Q = 1500 * 0.718 * (22 - 7)

Q = 1077 * 15

Q = 16155

Rate at which heat is supplied to the house is

Q' = COP * W

Q' = 3.15 * 5

Q' = 15.75

Time required to raise the temperature is

Δt = Q/Q'

Δt = 16155 / 15.75

Δt = 1025.7 s

Δt ~ 1026 s

Δt ~ 17.1 min

MAVERICK [17]
Except when necessary for takeoff and landing, <span>the minimum safe altitude required for a pilot to operate an aircraft over other than congested area is an altitude of 1000 ft above the highest obstacle within a 2000 ft horizontal radius of the aircraft.

It is also good to know that apart from taking off and landing, the aircraft must not operate at a distance less than 500 ft from any person, vessel, structure or vehicle.</span>

If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?
svet-max [94.6K]
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. 

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas. 

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles
