Answer: The microwaves are reflected within the metal interior of the oven where they are absorbed by food. Microwaves cause water molecules in food to vibrate, producing heat that cooks the food.

A net force of 500 N acts on a 100 kg cart. What is the acceleration of the cart if the mass is doubled?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

You can solve the following equation: F=ma for acceleration.

You'll be left with this:

a=F/m

And then you substitute the force and the doubled mass

a=500N/200kg

a=2.5 m/s²

A car is moving with speed 60 m/s and acceleration 4 m/s2 at a given instant. (a) using a second-degree taylor polynomial, estim
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using second degree taylor polynomials

let S(t) be position function and set S(0)=0

where S(0) is the initial position

Then v(t) = S^i(t) and a(t)=S^{ii}(t)

we have v(0) = 60m/s, a(0) = 4m/s^2

so T_{2}(t) =S(0)+v(0)t+\frac{a(0)}{2} t^2\\\\\\=0+60t+\frac{4}{2} t^2\\\\T_{2}(t)=60t+2t^2\\\\S(1)=T_{2}(1)=60+2=62m

frutty [35]

Answer:

1. Motion

2. Empty space

3. Far apart

4. Independently

5. Random or rapid

6. Collision

7. Kinetic energy

8. Atmospheric

9. 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius

10. 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are;

I. Gas.

II. Solid.

III. Liquid.

Filling the missing words or texts in the question, we have;

The kinetic theory describes the motion of particles in matter and the forces of attraction between them. The theory assumes that the volume occupied by a gas is mostly empty space, that the particles of gas are relatively far apart, move independently of each other, and are in constant random or rapid motion. The collision between particles are perfectly elastic so that the total kinetic energy remains constant. Gas pressure results from the simultaneous collisions of billions of particles with an object. Barometers are used to measure atmospheric pressure. Standard conditions are defined as a temperature of 273 Kelvin or 0° Celsius and a pressure of 1 atm, 101.3 kPa or 760 mmHg.

8. Contrast. The energy that can be released during a nuclear fission reaction with the energy that can be released during a nuc
Cloud [144]
8) the energy released by fusion is generally 3 to 4 times larger than with fission.  Fission has very few by-products but fusion releases large amounts of radioactive particles because it starts with large nuclei.
9) Alpha particles are 2 protons and 2 neutrons all put together.  It's really the nucleus of a helium atom.  It is most dangerous if you ingest it but it can be stopped with a sheet of paper so outside the body it's not as dangerous as others and due to its size it can't get very far in the air before hitting air molecules
beta particles are high energy electrons or positrons.  They travel further due to their small size but can be stopped by a thin barrier of plastic or wood.
Gamma rays are high frequency photons (light)  They are stopped by metal plates and go through human tissue.  They are quite dangerous.
10) The mass that is lost in chemical reactions is very small. Solve E=mc² for mass and you get m=E/c².  This says the mass you lose is equal to the energy you gained divided by the speed of light squared.  c² is a VERY big number so you need a lot of energy produced to notice it.  Chemical reactions are simply too inefficient to get that much energy out.
11)You need high temperatures for fusion because you're trying to push two atoms together (to "fuse" them as the name suggests)  The electrons in one atom repel the other electrons in the other atoms.  When stripped down to only protons, you still have to overcome this repulsion (Coulomb repulsion).  High temperatures means high velocity of the particles in the plasma.  This gives them enough "oomph" to get close enough to fuse.  Once close enough to each other, the nuclear force takes over and overwhelms the Coulomb repulsion and the nuclei fuse and release energy in doing so.

A small metal sphere has a mass of 0.19 gg and a charge of -23.0 nCnC. It is 10.0 cmcm directly above an identical sphere that h
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

  a = -7.29 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law,

          F -W = m a

Force is electrical force

         F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

         k q₁ q₂ / r² -mg = m a

indicate that the charge of the two spheres is equal

         q₁ = q₂ = q

         a = (k q² / r² - m g) / m

         a = k q² / m r² - g

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

        m = 0.19 g (1kg / 1000 g) = 1.9 10⁻⁴ kg

        q1 = q2 = q = -23.0 nC (1C / 10⁹ nC) = -23.0 10⁻⁹ C

        r = 10.0 cm (1m / 100cm) = 0.1000 m

let's calculate

        a = 9 10⁹ (23.0 10⁻⁹)² / (0.1000² 1.9 10⁻⁴) - 9.8

        a = -7.29 m / s²

The negative sign indicates that the direction of this acceleration is downward
