An automobile tire is rated to last for 35,000 miles. to an order of magnitude, through how many revolutions will it turn?
Furkat [3]
<span>The tire will rotate about 10 million times. An automobile tire is slightly less than 2 and half feet in diameter. It's circumference is that times pi with is a bit over 3. So 2.5 * 3 = 7.5 ft as an estimate for how far the tire rolls per revolution. A mile is a bit over 5000 feet, so call it 700 revolutions per mile. For the 35000 miles, call it 7 times 5000 miles. Now 7 times 7 is a bit under 50, so call 7 * 700 = 5000. And 5000 times 5000 = 25000000. The nearest order of magnitude is 10 million. So as an order of magnitude estimate, a automobile tire will rotate about 10 million times during it's life.</span>

A 50kg chandelier hangs from a ceiling suspended by a cable.
babunello [35]

Answer:

The tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward

Explanation:

The complete question is:

A 50kg chandelier hangs from a ceiling suspended by a cable. What is the Tension (magnitude and direction of the force) in the cable?

ANS:

Tension is the force applied axially by rope, chain, cable, rod, etc, as a reaction force. The direction of tension is always towards the support. Since, the support here, is ceiling.

Therefore, the direction of tension force will be <u>vertically upward</u><u>.</u>

Since the chandelier is hanging stationary, without any motion. Thus, there must not be any unbalanced force applied on it.

Hence, the tension force must be equal to the weight of chandelier.

Tension Force = Weight of Chandelier

T = W = mg

T = (50 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>T =   490 N</u>

<u>Thus, the tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward</u>

A student constructs a simple constant volume gas thermometer and calibrates it using the boiling point of water, 100°C, and the
just olya [345]

Answer:

The pressure corresponding to the absolute zero temperature is 0.997atm.

Explanation:

To solve this question, you draw a straight vertical line with the boiling point temperature and pressure on top of the line and the freezing point temperature and pressure on the lower part. The absolute temperature somewhere in the middle of the line with the pressure to be obtained.

So, we have;

0- (-19) / 100 - (-19) = P - 0.9267 / 1.366 - 0.9267

19 / 119 = P - 0.9267 / 0.4393

Cross multiply, we have

19 * 0.4393 = 119(P -0.9267)

8.3467 = 119P - 110.2773

119P = 118.624

P = 0.997 atm

So at 0°C, the pressure of the thermometer is 0.997atm.

If you climb to the top of Mt. Everest, you will be 8850 m (about 5.50 mi) above sea level.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

9.773m/s2

Explanation:

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s2

So,

Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on the Mount Everest.

g′=g(1−h2h)

=9.8(1−640000017696)

=9.8(1−0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s2

Hope it helped!!!
