We have,

Jane mass is 55 kg
His body covered with 700 nails all of them having a surface area of 1.00 mm² each = 700 × 1 = 700 mm² = 700/1000000 = 7/10000

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Let's calculate force as we already have area;

F = ma
F = 55 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity }
F = 539 N

Now, if should she would be on 700 nails then pressure will be;

P = F/A
P = 539/7 × 10000
P = 5390000/7
P = 770,000 Pascal

And if should would be on a 1 nail only,

P = F/A
P = 539/1 × 1000000
P = 539000000 Pascal

As, you can notice yourself that the pressure will be so high with only 1 nail and because of this, nail will pass through jane's body.

4. How long will it take a car travelling with a speed of 160 km hr to cover a distance of 700 meters? Hint: km/hr should be con

Inessa [10]

Answer:

15.8 seconds

Explanation:

Create an extended calculation to convert all the unit to what you need.

160 km 1000 m 1 hour 1 min

----------- x ------------- x -------------- x ---------- = 44.4 m/s

1 hour 1 km 60 min 60 sec

So 160km/hr is equal to 44.4m/s

Now you can figure out how many seconds it will take to go 700 meters.

44.4 m

---------- X x sec = 700 m

1 sec

Solve for x sec

x sec = 700m / 44.4 m/s

= 15.8 seconds

Solution A has a speciﬁc heat of 2.0 J/g◦C. Solution B has a speciﬁc heat of 3.8 J/g◦C. If equal masses of both solutions start

fgiga [73]

Answer: 2. Solution A attains a higher temperature.

Explanation: Specific heat simply means, that amount of heat which is when supplied to a unit mass of a substance will raise its temperature by 1°C.

In the given situation we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, out of which A has lower specific heat which means that a unit mass of solution A requires lesser energy to raise its temperature by 1°C than the solution B.

Since, the masses of both the solutions are same and equal heat is supplied to both, the proportional condition will follow.

We have a formula for such condition,

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$ .....................................(1)

where:

$\Delta T$ = temperature difference

Q= heat energy

m= mass of the body

c= specific heat of the body

Proving mathematically:

According to the given conditions

we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, i.e. $m_A=m_B$

equal heat is supplied to both the solutions, i.e. $Q_A=Q_B$

specific heat of solution A, $c_{A}=2.0 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}$

specific heat of solution B, $c_{B}=3.8 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}$

$\Delta T_A$ & $\Delta T_B$ are the change in temperatures of the respective solutions.

Now, putting the above values

$Q_A=Q_B$

$m_A.c_A. \Delta T_A=m_B.c_B . \Delta T_B\\\\2.0\times \Delta T_A=3.8 \times \Delta T_B\\\\ \Delta T_A=\frac{3.8}{2.0}\times \Delta T_B\\\\\\\frac{\Delta T_{A}}{\Delta T_{B}} = \frac{3.8}{2.0}>1$

Which proves that solution A attains a higher temperature than solution B.

How far will you travel if you run for 10. minutes at 2.0 m/s?

oee [108]

We know that 1 minute= 60 seconds (or 1 min= 60 s).

10 min* (60 s/ 1 min)* (2.0 m/ 1 s)= 1,200 m.
(Note that the units cancel out so you get the answer)

The final answer is 1,200 m.

Hope this helps~
