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.

The kinetic friction coefficient between a cabinet and the floor is 0.3. Mass of the cabinet is 300kg. A man pushes the cabinet
podryga [215]

Answer:

<h2>0.39m/s^2</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m= 300kg

applied force F= 1000N

coefficient of friction μ= 0.3

Step two:

The net force Fn= applied force-friction force  

Fn=F-F1

F1= limiting force

F1=μ*m*g

F1=0.3*300*9.81

F1=882.9N

the Net force= 1000-882.9

Fn=117.1N

Step three:

we know that

F=ma

Fnet=ma

a= Fnet/m

a=117.1/300

a=0.39m/s^2

Can someone please help me with science.
pav-90 [236]

On the dog's return trip (between <em>t</em> = 10 and <em>t</em> = 12.5 seconds), the slope of the position function is steeper than during the first 5 seconds, which means the dog ran home faster. The only option that captures this is D.

You can check to make sure that the dog indeed runs twice as fast on the return trip. The slope of the position function during the first 5 seconds is

(change in position) / (change in time) = (5 - 0) / (5 - 0) = 5/5 = 1

while during the return trip, it is

(0 - 5) / (12.5 - 10) = -5/2.5 = -2

Ignoring the sign (which only indicates the direction in which the dog was running), we see that the dog's speed on the return trip was indeed twice as high as during the first 5 s.

Unpolarized light is incident upon two polarization filters that do not have their transmission axes aligned. If 21% of the ligh
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

49.6°

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light

I_2 = Light after passing though second filter = 0.21I_0

Polarized light passing through first filter

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Polarized light passing through second filter

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.21I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.21I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.21I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.21I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.21\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.42}\\\Rightarrow \theta=49.6^{\circ}

The angle between the two filters is 49.6°

An electric pump has 2kW power . How much water will it lift every minute if the height is 10 m ?
valkas [14]

Answer:

Given that,

  • Power = 2000 W
  • time = 60 seconds
  • distance= 10m

Power = work done ÷ time

Here, since the movement is vertical, w = mgh

So,

Power = mgh÷t

2000 = (m × 9.8 ×10) ÷ 60

m = (2000 ×60) ÷98

m = 1224.5kg
