Reil [10]2 years ago

An example of the use of expansion of materials when they are heated is in

Thermometers. Thermometer is an instrument which is used to measure the

temperature of a place.

It contains mercury which expands as temperature increases. This is used

to accurately determine the temperature of an object.

The disadvantage of expansion of materials when they are heated can be

seen in roads as there is expansion of the surface as a result of heat

exposure leads to roads being rough thereby incurring more costs for

repairs.

A car moves with a speed 72km/h, the driver uses the brakes, the car stops after 8 seconds, calculate its speed after 10 seconds
vampirchik [111]
The acceleration of the car is solved by subtracting the initial speed from the final speed then dividing the result by the elapsed time.

initial speed = 72 km/hr = 20 m/s

final speed = 0 m/s

elapsed time = 5 seconds

acceleration = (0 m/s – 20 m/s) / 5 s

acceleration = - 20m/s / 5 s

acceleration = -4 m/s^2

A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F=  20N   and  a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

Which classification scheme is based on the brightness of a star as it appears to you in the night sky?
anastassius [24]
The apparent magnitude scale is a classification scheme which is based on the brightness of stars. The range of brightness values is from 1 to 6.
The stars which are the most brightest are ranked as number 1 and also called first magnitude stars, stars which are little dimmer than number 1 are ranked as number 2 and also called second magnitude stars. Similarly the most faintest stars are ranked number 6 and also called as the sixth magnitude stars.
