Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

This analysis can be easily deduced by means of Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of the forces or the total force on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

F = total force [N]

m = mass [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

We must clear the acceleration value.

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

We see that the term of the mass is in the denominator, so that if the value of the mass is increased the acceleration decreases, since they are inversely proportional.

Does the air exert a buoyant force on all objects in air or only on objects such as balloons that are very light for their size?

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Solution:-

Buoyancy is the force that causes objects to float. It is the force exerted on an object that is partly or wholly immersed in a fluid. Buoyancy is caused by the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an object immersed in a static fluid. It is also known as the buoyant force. Buoyancy is the phenomena due to Buoyant Force.

It is as an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in a fluid. As we know, the pressure in a fluid column increases with depth. Thus, the pressure at the bottom of an object submerged in the fluid is greater than that at the top. The difference in this pressure results in a net upward force on the object which we define as buoyancy.

- The formula for buoyant force (Fb) is given:

Fb = ρ*g*V

- The force acts on all objects. However, it depends on the fluid density and amount of volume displaced.

- The Buoyant force exerted by air with density = 1.225 kg/m^3 on an object with volume (V) is:

Fb = ρ*g*V = 1.225*9.81*V = 12.02*V

- For the similar object with mass (m), the downward weight would be:

W = m*g

- For the object to float the buoyant force (Fb) must be greater than weight of the object:

Fb > W

12.02*V > m*9.81

V / m > 0.816

- The ratio of V / m must be at-least = 0.816.

- Assuming the object is fully immersed in air, then the volume displaced V = ρ_material*V

ρ_material < 1 / 0.816

ρ_material < 1.225 or ( ρ_air )

- So the for an object to float in air its material density must always be less than that of air. That why in balloons lighter gas is used which have density less than that of air like Helium.

A 8.00-kg object is hung from the bottom end of a vertical spring fastened to an overhead beam. The object is set into vertical

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

109.32 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the hung object, m = 8 kg

Period of oscillation of object, T = 1.7 s

Force constant, k = ?

Recall that the period of oscillation of a Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

T = 2π √(m/k), where

T = period of oscillation

m = mass of object and

k = force constant if the spring

Since we are looking for the force constant, if we make "k" the subject of the formula, we have

k = 4π²m / T², now we go ahead to substitute our given values from the question

k = (4 * π² * 8) / 1.7²

k = 315.91 / 2.89

k = 109.32 N/m

Therefore, the force constant of the spring is 109.32 N/m

g determine what frequency is required of a source powering a 100 uf capacitor a 500 ohm resistor and a s50 mH inductor in serie

polet [3.4K]

Answer: $71.16\ Hz$

Explanation:

Given

Capacitance $C=100\ \mu F$

Resistance $R=500\ \Omega$

Inductance $L=50\ mH$

In LCR circuit, current is maximum at resonance frequency i.e.

$X_L=X_C\ \text{and}\ \omega_o=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow \omega_o=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{50\times 10^{-3}\times 100\times 10^{-6}}}\\\\\Rightarrow \omega_o=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5}\times 10^{-3}}\\\\\Rightarrow \omega_o=0.447\times 10^{3}$

Also, frequency is given by

$\Rightarrow 2\pi f=\omega_o\\\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{\omega_o}{2\pi}$

$\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\times 0.447\times 10^3\\\\\Rightarrow f=71.16\ Hz$

In general, if the temperature of a chemical reaction is increased, the reaction rateA. IncreasesB. decreasesC. remains the same

In-s [12.5K]

A. Increases

I would assume this to be the answer because heat is another form of energy. If there is more energy the molecules will become more active. This makes A the most logical answer.
