Hello User!

Here is the answer :

Radiation

Heat is transferred by radiation. The energy is carried by electromagnetic wave. The energy is carried from the Sun to space surrounding. Therefore, thermal energy from the Sun travels to Earth as electromagnetic waves

on a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3 , length 92.8 cm and diameter 2.05 cm fr

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3 , length 92.8 cm and diameter 2.05 cm from a storage room to a machinist, the  weight of rod w is 23.41 N .

<h3>How is the weight calculated?</h3>

Given ,

density (d) = 7800 kg/m³

D = 2.05 cm = 0.0205 m

r = D/2 = 0.0205 / 2 =0.01025 m

h = 92.8 cm = 0.928 m

The weight is calculated by ,

W = m × g

But, to find mass (m)

m = d × V

The volume of the rod, because is cylindrical, is,

V = π × r² × h

∴ V = 3.14 × (0.01025)² × 0.928

∴ V = 3.14 × 1.051 × 10⁻⁴ × 0.928

∴ V = 3.0625 × 10⁻⁴

Now to calculate mass,

m = d × V

∴ m = 7800 × 3.0625 × 10⁻⁴

∴ m = 2.3887 Kg

Now, for calculating weight

W = m × g

∴ W =  2.3887 × 9.8

∴ W = 23.41 N

∴ The weight of the rod W assuming the free-fall acceleration is 23.41 N .

<h3>What is weight?</h3>
  1. The weight of an object is the force exerted on it by gravity.
  2. It is define weight as a vector quantity, the force of gravity acting on an object.
  3. Some define weight as a scalar quantity that is the magnitude of gravity.

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

A train is traveling down a straight track at 20. m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of -1.0
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: d = 0 m, it does not move

Explanation:

Data

vo = 20 m/s

a = -1 m/s2

t = 40 s

d = ?

Formula

d = vot + (1/2)at²

Substitution

d = (20)(40) + (1/2)(-1)(40)²

d = 800 - 800

d = 0 m                                  It suggest that it does not move.

                                       I hope it can help you

Because ions in an ionic crystal are tightly bound together, _____. it takes little energy to change them from a solid to a liqu
umka2103 [35]
Ions are particles formed when an atom of an element looses or gains electrons to attain a stable configuration.They are either positively charged (cations) or negatively charged (anions). Ionic crystals consists of ions bound together by electrostatic attraction forming a regular arrangement, geometric structure called crystal lattice. In an ionic solid the ions are held by strong attractive forces (tightly bound) and cannot move from their positions in the crystal structure and  therefore, do not conduct electricity.
