Answer:

alcohol thermometer is preferred for a very cold region. Alcohol thermometer is preferred for a very cold region because its freezing point of alcohol is - 117°C. So, it can measure the temperature of the very cold region.

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface,pointing down, that averages 102 N/C. This field is maintained by various

Schach [20]

Answer:

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The electric filed is $E = 102 \ N/C$

Generally according to Gauss law

=> $E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become

$- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }$

Here $q$ is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

$A$ is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

$A = 4\pi r^2$

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value $r = 6.3781*10^6 m$

substituting values

$A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2$

$A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2$

$q = -E * A * \epsilon _o$

Here $\epsilon_o$ s the permitivity of free space with value

$\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2$

substituting values

$q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}$

$q = -461532.5 \ C$

While entering a freeway, a car accelerates from rest at a rate of 2.40 m/s2 for 12.0 s. (a) Draw a sketch of the situation. (b)

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) See attached picture, b) We know the initial velocity = 0, initial position=0, time=12.0s, acceleration= $2.40m/s^{2}$ , c) the car travels 172.8m in those 12 seconds, d) The car's final velocity is 28.8m/s

Explanation:

a) In order to draw a sketch of the situation, I must include the data I know, the data I would like to know and a drawing of the car including the direction of the movement and its acceleration, just like in the attached picture.

b) From the information given by the problem I know:

initial velocity =0

acceleration = $2.40m/s^{2}$

time = 12.0 s

initial position = 0

unknown:

displacement.

in order to choose the appropriate equation, I must take the knowns and the unknown and look for a formula I can use to solve for the unknown. I know the initial velocity, initial position, time, acceleration and I want to find out the displacement. The formula that contains all this data is the following:

$x=x_{0}+V_{x0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{x}t^{2}$

Once I got the equation I need to find the displacement, I can plug the known values in, like this:

$x=0+0(12s)+\frac{1}{2}(2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}} )(12s)^{2}$

after cancelling the pertinent units, I get that my answer will be given in meters. So I get:

$x=\frac{1}{2} (2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}} )(12s)^{2}$

which solves to:

$x=172.8m$

So the displacement of the car in 12 seconds is 172.8m, which makes sense taking into account that it will be accelerating for 12 seconds and each second its velocity will increase by 2.4m/s.

d) So, like the previous part of the problem, I know the initial position of the car, the time it travels, the initial velocity and its acceleration. Now I also know what its final position is, so we have more than enough information to find this answer out.

I need to find the final velocity, so I need to use an equation that will use some or all of the known data and the unknown. In order to solve this problem, I can use the following equation:

$a=\frac{V_{f}-V_{0} }{t}$

Next, since I need to find the final velocity, I can solve the equation just for that, I can start by multiplying both sides by t so I get:

$at=V_{f}-V_{0}$

and finally I can add $V_{0}$ to both sides so I get:

$V_{f}=at+V_{0}$

and now I can proceed and substitute the known values:

$V_{f}=at+V_{0}$

$V_{f}=(2.40\frac{m}{s^{2}}} (12s)+0$

which solves to:

$V_{f}=28.8m/s$

What is kinetic energy

mixas84 [53]

(symbol K) Energy that an object possesses because it is in motion. It is the energy given to an object to set it in motion; it depends on the mass (m) of the object and its velocity (v), according to the equation K = 1/2 mv2. On impact, it is converted into other forms of energy such as heat, sound and light.
