Answer:

In practical terms, density is the weight of a substance for a specific volume. The density of water is roughly 1 gram per milliliter but, this changes with temperature of if there are substances dissolved in it. Ice is less dense than liquid water which is why your ice cubes float in your glass.

15. If an 800.-kg sports car slows to 13.0 m/s to check out an accident scene and the

goldfiish [28.3K]

The final combined velocity after the collision is 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the two car and of the truck must be conserved before and after the collision.

This means that we can write the following equation:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 800 kg$ is the mass of the sport car

$u_1 = 13.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the car (taking its direction as positive direction)

$m_2 = 1200 kg$ is the mass of the truck

$u_2 = 25.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the truck

$v$ is the final combined velocity of the car and the truck, after the collision

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the velocity after the collision:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(800)(13)+(1200)(25)}{800+1200}=20.2 m/s$

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the two vehicles.

In the diagram, q1 = -6.39*10^-9 C and q2 = +3.22*10^-9 C. What is the electric field at point P? pls help

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

First draw the vectors that represent both electric fields.

E1 is the elictric field created by q1, E2 is the one created by q2.

● q1 is negative so E1 will point from P.

● q2 is positive so E2 will point out of P

(Picture below)

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

The resulting electric field is equal to the sum of the two fields since both vectors are colinear.

Let E be the total field.

● E = E1 + E2

The formula of the electric field intensity is:

● E = K ×(q/d^2)

-K is Coulomb's constant

-d is the distance between the charge and the object ( here P)

-q is the charge

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E1 = K × (q1/d1^2)

The distance between q1 and P is the qum of 0.15 m 0.25 m. (0.4 m)

Coulombs constant is 9×10^9 m^2/C^2

● E1 = 9×10^9 ×[-6.39 × 10^(-9)/ 0.4^2]

● E1 = -359.43 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E2 = K ×(q2/d^2)

The distance between q2 and P is 0.25 m.

● E2 = 9×10^9×[3.22×10^(-9) /0.25^2]

● E2 = 463.68 N/C

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● E = E1 + E2

● E = -359.43+463.68

● E = 105.25 N/C

Because CMB radiation was _____ throughout the universe, scientists can only relate the source to the big bang.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: 1 The correct answer is that CMB radiation was spread uniformly throughout the whole universe.This was related to big band theory because this theory predicts that the universe was a very hot place and as it cooled down it should have been filled with laterally the remnant heat over from the Big Bang called as cosmic microwave background.

Answer: 2 CMB radiation was discovered accidentally when Penzias and Wilson were performing some experiment and they noticed a ' hum' noise that was constantly detected by the antenna even after removing all the disturbing sources.

Then it was realized that it is cosmic microwave background radiation.

A person strikes a ball with a bat. The temperature of the ball increases by 0.06ᵒC. What accounts for the increase?

marusya05 [52]

The increase in the average kinetic energy of the ball causes the increase in the temperature of the ball.

Kinetic energy of a particle is directly proportional to its temperature.

A ball initially at rest acquires kinetic energy when an external force is applied to it. As the person strikes the ball with a bat, the ball gains momentum which increases its kinetic energy of the ball.

Temperature on the other hand, is the measure of the average kinetic energy of a particle. Consequently, as the kinetic energy of the ball increases, the temperature of the ball increases as well.

Thus, we can conclude that the increase in the average kinetic energy of the ball causes the increase in the temperature of the ball.
