Answer:

yes

Explanation:

weight depends on the strength of gravity, so on a different planet, or on the moon for example, things would have a different weight but have the same mass.

Any change in the speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". You'll hear "deceleration" used for slowing down but that's not technically correct.

Four point masses of 3.0 kg each are arranged in a square on masslessrods. The length of a side of the square is 0.50m. What is

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Part a)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through B and C is given as

$I = mL^2 + mL^2 + m(0) + m(0)$

$I = 2mL^2$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

Part b)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through A and C is given as

$I = m(0^2) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(0) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 2m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = (3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 0.75 kg m^2$

Part c)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to the plane of the square

$I = m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2$

$I = 4m\frac{L^2}{2}$

$I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)$

$I = 1.5 kg m^2$

imagine that 501 people are present in a movie theater of volume 8.00 x10^3 that is sealed shut so no air can escape. Each perso

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The temperature of air will increase by $\Delta T=41044.967\ K$

Explanation:

Given:

no. of person in a theater, $n=501$

volume of air in the theater, $V=8\times 10^3\ m^3$

rate of heat given off by each person, $P=110\ J.s^{-1}$

duration of movie, $t=2\ hr=7200\ s$

initial pressure in the theater, $p_i=1.01\times 10^5\ Pa$

initial temperature in the theater, $T_i=20+273=293\ K$

specific heat capacity of air at the given conditions, $c=1.0061\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

<u>The total quantity of heat released by the total people in the theater during the movie:</u>

$Q=n.P.t$

$Q=501\times 110\times 7200$

$Q=396792000\ J$

<u>Form the relation of heat capacity:</u>

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$

∵ $p_i.V=m.R.T$

$Q=(\frac{p_i.V}{R.T}) \times c\times (T_f-T_i)$

$396792000=(\frac{1.01\times 10^5\times 8\times 10^3}{287\times 293}) \times 1.0061\times (T_f-293)$

$T_f=41337.967\ K$

Change in temperature of air:

$\Delta T=41044.967\ K$
