Answer:

Weight = 3.92 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass m = 0.4 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

Find:

Weight

Computation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

Weight = 0.4 x 9.8

Weight = 3.92 N

A bin is given a push across a horizontal surface. The bin has a mass m, the push gives it an initial speed of 1.60 m/s, and the
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The bin moves 0.87 m before it stops.

Explanation:

If we analyze the situation and apply the law of conservation of energy to this case, we get:

Energy Dissipated through Friction = Change in Kinetic Energy of Bin (Loss)

F d = (0.5)(m)(Vi² - Vf²)

where,

F = Frictional Force = μR    

but, R = Normal Reaction = Weight of Bin = mg

Therefore, F = μmg

Hence, the equation becomes:

μmg d = (0.5)(m)(Vi² - Vf²)

μg d = (0.5)(Vi² - Vf²)

d = (0.5)(Vi² - Vf²)/μg

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, bin finally stops)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 1.6 m/s

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15

g = 9.8 m/s²

d = distance moved by bin before coming to stop = ?

Therefore,

d = (0.5)[(1.6 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²]/(0.15)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>d = 0.87 m</u>

The light bulb in your room is not very bright. You want to use a concave mirror to direct its illumination into a tight, parall
ehidna [41]

A point source is to be used with a concave mirror to produce a beam of parallel light. The source should be placed midway between the center of curvature and the mirror. To solve this question you have to draw a ray diagram. Apply the mirror equation to determine the image distance and finally make sure that the first two steps are consistent with each other.

<h2>Answer: <u>El Niño</u> phenomenon </h2>

<em>El Niño</em> is a natural climatic phenomenon that occurs cyclically on our planet Earth (albeit irregularly) in periods of between 3 and 7 years. It occurs when the temperature of the Pacific Ocean in its eastern part, which is towards South America, becomes warmer than usual.

To understand it better, it is necessary to know the following:

Normally in the referred area of the Pacific, trade winds blow from east to west, which move the warm water from the area to the west, allowing deeper and colder water to emerge. But, during El Niño the trade winds weaken or even flow in reverse, from west to east. It is then, when the warm water accumulates in front of the pacific coasts of South America provoking a change in the habitual patterns of precipitation and temperature.

As a consequence, hot water evaporates and condenses, causing an increase in rainfall. Due to this change in the trade winds, the climate pattern is altered, and these rains affect more the eastern part of the Pacific, while at the other end of the ocean (in Australia and Southeast Asia) the climate becomes colder and dry.

It should be noted that this is a global phenomenon that affects and extends directly or indirectly in most regions of the planet. However, its greatest impact occurs in the American countries of the Pacific coast; and in Southeast Asia and Australia.

This phenomenom begins during the final months of the year, from October and generally may last until January of the following year, although its effects are often maintained even until March.

Thermodynamics
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

E = 3.8 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the object, m = 10 g = 0.01 kg

The heat of fusion of  aluminum is 380 kJ/kg

We need to find the energy required to melt the mass of the aluminium. It can be calculated as follows:

E = mL

So,

E = 0.01 × 380

E = 3.8 kJ

So, the energy required to melt the mass is equal 3.8 kJ.
