Answer:

Measurement is the process of finding the length, size, or quantity of a substance. ... A physical quantity (like length) has to be measured with respect to some fixed quantity. A fixed quantity with respect to which a physical quantity is measured is called a unit. A unit is used as a standard of measurement.

The owner is at the top of the organizational pyramid he owns the organization and all the investment is done by the owner.

Strategic teams do all the strategy related work like how to increase production, decrease the losses, how to increase the quality, etc.

Operational team deals with the work which is related to taking work, assigning work and giving the result to the higher authority.

a 4lb ball is travelling in a circle radius 3ft speed 6ft/s. the attached cord pulled through the center has constant speed 2ft/

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

Circle motion

Weight=4lb

Radius=3ft

Velocity Vb= 6ft/s

Velocity Vr=2ft/s

Velocity Vo=12

V2=√Vo²+Vr²

12=√Vo²+2²

Square both side

144=Vo²+4

Vo²=140

Vo=11.83ft/s

Applying conservation of angular momentum

Ha1=Hb2

MbVbr1=MbVor2

r2=Vbr1/Vo

r2=6×3/11.83

r2=1.52ft

The require time is written as.

∆r=Vrt

t=∆r/Vr

t=r1-r2/Vr

t=3-1.52/2

t=0.74sec

How do you find average velocity (average) from acceleration) and time (t)?

Tasya [4]

Average velocity is defined as the ratio in change in position to change in time,

v[ave] = ∆x/∆t

which on its own doesn't have anything to do with acceleration.

If acceleration is constant, the average velocity is the literal average of the initial and final velocities,

v[ave] = (v[final] + v[initial]) / 2

If this constant acceleration has magnitude a, the final velocity can be expressed in terms of the initial velocity by

v[final] = v[initial] + a*t

and plugging this into the previous equation gives

v[ave] = (v[initial] + a*t + v[initial])/2

v[ave] = v[initial] + 1/2*a*t

If the body in consideration is initially at rest, then

v[ave] = 1/2*a*t

which might be the relation you're looking for. But bear in mind the conditions I've underlined.

If acceleration is not constant and changes over time, so that the acceleration is some function of time a(t), then you can determine the velocity function v(t) by using the fundamental theorem of calculus. You need to know a particular velocity for some time to completely characterize v(t), though. For example, if you're given the initial velocity v[initial] = v(0), then

$\displaystyle v(t) = v(0) + \int_0^t a(u) \, du$

or if you know any other velocity for some time t₀ > 0,

$\displaystyle v(t) = v(t_0) + \int_{t_0}^t a(u) \, du$

An open container holds ice of mass 0.500 kgkg at a temperature of -17.4 âCâC . The mass of the container can be ignored. Heat i

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

a) t = 235.2minute

b) 260.94minutes

Explanation:

Heat energy is defined as the energy required to change the temperature of a substance by 1kelvin.

It is expressed as H = mc∆t where m is the mass of the water

c is the specific heat capacity of the water/ice

∆t is the change in temperature

Total heat required to melt the ice

H = mLice + mc∆t

Lice is the latent heat of fusion of ice

a) To calculate how much time tmelts passes before the ice starts to melt, we will only calculate heat energy absorb by the ice before it melts.

H = mLice

H = 0.50(334000)

H = 167,000Joules

If heat is supplied to the container at the constant rate of 710 J/minute, the time taken before the ice starts to melt will be:

t = 167,000/710

t = 235.2minutes

b) To calculate how much time trise does it take before the temperature begins to rise above 0°C, we will calculate the total energy absorbed at 0°C first.

H = 0.50(334000) + 0.50(2100)(0-(-17.4)

Note that the ice melts at 0°C which will be the final temperature

H = 167,000+18270

H = 185,270oules

Since heat is supplied to the container at the constant rate of 710 J/minute

710Joules = 1minute

185,270Joules= x

x = 185,270/710

x = 260.94minutes

The time taken before the temperature begins to rise is 260.94minutes:
