Physics
1 answer:
marysya [2.9K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Lightning is an electrical discharge caused by imbalances between storm clouds and the ground, or within the clouds themselves. Most lightning occurs within the clouds

How many grams are in 6.53 moles of Mn?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

359 g Mn

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Dimensional Analysis
  • Reading the Periodic Table of Elements

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

6.53 mol Mn

<u>Step 2: Find conversion</u>

1 mol Mn = 54.94 g Mn

<u>Step 3: Dimensional Analysis</u>

<u />6.53 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} Mn(\frac{54.94 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} Mn}{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} Mn} ) = 358.758 g Mn

<u>Step 4: Simplify</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

358.758 g Mn ≈ 359 g Mn

Why is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge an ideal place for SWARM to collect electrical conductivity data?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a "spreading center" or a "divergent plate boundary." The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year.

A block of mass M is connected by a string and pulley to a hanging mass m. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block M a
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

a)  y = 0.98 t², t=1s y= 0.98 m,  

b) he two blocks must move the same distance

c) v = 1.96 m / s,  d)  a = -1.96 m / s², e)  x = 0.98 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

Big Block

Y axis

             N-W = 0

             N = M g

X axis

             T- fr = Ma

the friction force has the expression

             fr = μ N

             fr = μ Mg

small block

             w- T = m a

             

we write the system of equations

             T - fr = M a

             mg - T = m a

we add and resolved

             mg-  μ Mg = (M + m) a

             a = g \ \frac{m - \mu M}{m+M}

             a = 9.8 \ \frac{10- 0.2 \ 20}{ 10 \ +\ 20}

             a = 9.8 (6/30)

             a = 1.96 m / s²

a) now we can use the kinematic relations

             y = v₀ t + ½ a t²

the blocks come out of rest so their initial velocity is zero

             y = ½ a t²

             y = ½ 1.96 t²

             y = 0.98 t²

for t = 1s y = 0.98 m

       t = 2s y = 1.96 m

b) Time is a scale that is the same for the entire system, the question should be oriented to how far the big block will move.

As the curda is in tension the two blocks must move the same distance

c) the velocity of the block M

           v = vo + a t

           v = 0 + 1.96 t

for t = 1 s v = 1.96 m / s

       t = 2 s v = 3.92 m / s

d) the deceleration if the chain is cut

when removing the chain the tension becomes zero

           -fr = M a

          - μ M g = M a

          a = - μ g

          a = - 0.2 9.8

          a = -1.96 m / s²

e) the distance to stop the block is

         v² = vo² - 2 a x

        0 = vo² - 2a x

        x = vo² / 2a

        x = 1.96² / 2 1.96

        x = 0.98 m

the time to travel this distance is

        v = vo - a t

        t = vo / a

        t = 1.96 /1.96

        t = 1 s
