How can a mass be hot enough to flow but still act like a solid

1 answer:

6 0

The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't

Glass absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun. Would a fraction of the incident UV light be reflected from the air/glass boun

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Any transparent surface in practical is neither a perfect absorber of electromagnetic waves neither a perfect reflector. Generally all the transparent surfaces reflect some amount of irradiation and the other parts are absorbed and transmitted.

<u>That is given by as relation:</u>

$\alpha+\rho+\tau=1$

where:

$\alpha=$ absorptivity which is defined as the ratio of the absorbed radiation to the total irradiation

$\rho=$ reflectivity is defined as the ratio of reflected radiation to the total irradiation

$\tau=$ transmittivity is defined as the ratio of total transmitted radiation to the total irradiation

A car is moving at 19 m/s along a curve on a horizontal plane with radius of curvature 49m.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

$\mu =0.75$

Explanation:

<u>Frictional Force </u>

When the car is moving along the curve, it receives a force that tries to take it from the road. It's called centripetal force and the formula to compute it is:

$F_c=m.a_c$

The centripetal acceleration a_c is computed as

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

Where v is the tangent speed of the car and r is the radius of curvature. Replacing the formula into the first one

$F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

For the car to keep on the track, the friction must have the exact same value of the centripetal force and balance the forces. The friction force is computed as

$F_r=\mu N$

The normal force N is equal to the weight of the car, thus

$F_r=\mu .m.g$

Equating both forces

$\displaystyle \mu .m.g=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle \mu =\frac{v^2}{rg}$

Substituting the values

$\displaystyle \mu =\frac{19^2}{(49)(9.8)}$

$\boxed{\mu =0.75}$

Explanation:

if the elevator is moving upward with the constant speed the spring scale will read 18 N which is the mass of each of the two blocks attached by separate springs to the scale at opposite ends.
