A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between the steel spatula and the Teflon frying p

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$f_n=3.75N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frictional force $F=0.150N$

Coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu=0.04$

Generally the equation for Normal for is mathematically given by

$f_n=\frac{F}{\mu}$

Therefore

$f_n=\frac{0.150}{0.04}$

$f_n=3.75N$

To calibrate the calorimeter electrically, a constant voltage of 3.6 V is applied and a current of 2.6 A flows for a period of 3

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$372.3 J/^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the total energy supplied to the calorimeter.

We know that:

V = 3.6 V is the voltage applied

I = 2.6 A is the current

So, the power delivered is

$P=VI=(3.6)(2.6)=9.36 W$

Then, this power is delivered for a time of

t = 350 s

Therefore, the energy supplied is

$E=Pt=(9.36)(350)=3276 J$

Finally, the change in temperature of an object is related to the energy supplied by

$E=C\Delta T$

where in this problem:

E = 3276 J is the energy supplied

C is the heat capacity of the object

$\Delta T =29.1^{\circ}-20.3^{\circ}=8.8^{\circ}C$ is the change in temperature

Solving for C, we find:

$C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}=\frac{3276}{8.8}=372.3 J/^{\circ}C$

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction

satela [25.4K]

a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes. This one isn't bad. The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No. That's silly.
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity.

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.
