Answer:

For a material to be a good conductor, the electricity passed through it must be able to move the electrons; the more free electrons in a metal, the greater its conductivity.

A ball is dropped from an upper floor, some unknown distance above your apartment. As you look out of your window, which is 1.50

laila [671]

Answer:

The ball is dropped at a height of 9.71 m above the top of the window.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Height of the window=1.5 m
Time taken by ball to cover the window height=0.15

Now using equation of motion in one dimension we have

$s=ut+\dfrac{at^2}{2}$

Let u be the velocity of the ball when it reaches the top of the window

then

$1.5=0.15u+\dfrac{9.8\times0.15^2}{2}\\u=3.96\ \rm m/s\\$

Now u is the final velocity of the ball with respect to the top of the building

so let t be the time taken for it to reach the top of the window with this velocity

$3.96=gt\\t=0.4\ \rm s\\$

Let h be the height above the top of the window

$h=\dfrac{gt^2}{2}\\\\h=\dfrac{9.8\times 0.4^2}{2}\\h=9.71\ \rm m$

a chamber with a fixed volume of 1.0 meters cubed contains a monatomic gas at 3.00 *10^K. The chamber is heated to a temperature

igomit [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of fixed chamber $V=1 m^3$

Initial Temperature $T_1=300 K$

Final Temperature $T_2=400 K$

Heat Supplied $Q=10 J$

From First law of thermodynamics

Change in internal energy of the system is equal to heat added minus work done by the system

$\Delta U=Q-W$

as the volume is fixed therefore work

$W=\int PdV=0$

thus $\Delta U=mc_v\Delta T=Q$

$c_v$ for mono-atomic gas is $12.471 J/K-mol$

$n\times 12.471\times (400-300)=10$

$n=0.008018 mol$

and 1 mole contains $6.022\times 10^{23} molecules$

thus No of molecules $=0.008018\times 6.022\times 10^{23}$

No of molecules $=4.82\times 10^{21} molecules$

~~~!Here's the question!~~~

gtnhenbr [62]

The answer would most likely be A since obviously gravity weighs things down which helps the every other masses stay settled in place

three girls were pushing the same car with a net force of 450 N [N48°E]. Two of the girls were pushing with forces of 310 N [N25

ElenaW [278]

The net force is the vector

∑ F = (450 N) (cos(42°) i + sin(42°) j)

and two of the forces provided by the girls are

F₁ = (310 N) (cos(115°) i + sin(115°) j)

F₂ = (250 N) (cos(285°) i + sin(285°) j)

Then the force provided by the third girl is the vector

F₃ = ∑ F - F₁ - F₂

F₃ = ((450 N) cos(42°) - (310 N) cos(115°) - (250 N) cos(285°)) i

… … … + ((450 N) sin(42°) - (310 N) sin(115°) - (250 N) sin(285°)) j

F₃ ≈ (400.722 N) i + (261.635 N) j

So, the third girl provided a force of magnitude

||F₃|| = √((400.722 N)² + (261.635 N)²) ≈ 478.572 N ≈ 480 N

pointing in a direction

arctan((261.635 N)/(400.722 N)) ≈ 33.1409° ≈ 33°

relative to East which refers to 0°; that is, 33° N of E or E33°N. Since the other forces are given relative to North or South, we can write this direction as N57°E.

So, the third girl pushed with force 480 N [N57°E].

While vacationing in the mountains you do some hiking. In the morning, your displacement is S⃗ morning= (2200 m , east) + (4000

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The hiker (you ) is 200 m below his/her(your) starting point

The resultant displacement in the north east direction is

$a = 6562.0 \ m$
