Answer:

The capillary rise of the glycerin is most nearly  y  =  0.0204 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the glass tube is  d =  1 \ mm =  0.001 \ m

   The density of glycerin is  \rho =  1260 \ kg /m^3

   The surface tension of the glycerin is \sigma   =  6.3 *10^{-2} \ N /m

The capillary rise of the glycerin is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{4 * \sigma  *  cos (\theta )}{ \rho * g *  d}

substituting value  

       y  =  \frac{4 * 6.3 *10^{-2}  *  cos (0 )}{ 1260 * 9.8 *  0.001}

      y  =  0.0204 \ m

Therefore the height  of the glass tube  the glycerin was able to cover is

y  =  0.0204 \ m

When is the velocity of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

A.  when the mass has a displacement of zero

Explanation:

The velocity of a mass on a spring can be calculated by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the total energy of the mass-spring system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) of the spring and the kinetic energy (K) of the mass:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the mass with respect to the equilibrium position of the spring

m is the mass

v is the velocity of the mass

Since the total energy E must remain constant, we can notice the following:

- When the displacement is zero (x=0), the velocity must be maximum, because U=0 so K is maximum

- When the displacement is maximum, the velocity must be minimum (zero), because U is maximum and K=0

Based on these observations, we can conclude that the velocity of the mass is at its maximum value when the displacement is zero, so the correct option is A.

Suppose a car manufacturer tested its cars for front-en4 collisions by hauling them up on a crane and dropping then; from a cert
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

a

Generally from third equation of motion we have that

v^2 =  u^2 + 2a[s_i - s_f]

Here v is the final speed of the car

u is the initial speed of the car which is zero

s_i is the initial position of the car which is certain height H

s_i is the final position of the car which is zero meters (i.e the ground)

a is the acceleration due to gravity which is g

So

v^2 = 0 + 2g[H - 0]

=> v  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

b

H  =  9.86 \  m

Explanation:

Generally from third equation of motion we have that

v^2 =  u^2 + 2a[s_i - s_f]

Here v is the final speed of the car

u is the initial speed of the car which is zero

s_i is the initial position of the car which is certain height H

s_i is the final position of the car which is zero meters (i.e the ground)

a is the acceleration due to gravity which is g

So

v^2 = 0 + 2g[H - 0]

=> v  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

When v  = 50 \  km/h = \frac{50 *1000}{3600} = 13.9 \  m/s we have that

13.9  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

=> H  =  \frac{13.9^2}{2 *  9.8}

=> H  =  9.86 \  m

What characteristic of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it?
Korvikt [17]
The mass of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it. This is according to Newton's Law of Gravitation, which basically states that the more mass a body has, the greater the force of attraction it exerts on other bodies with mass near it.

The gravitational force is:

F = GMm/r², where G is a constant, r is the distance between large mass M and small mass m.

Considering the fact that acceleration is force per unit mass, if we divide gravitational force by the small mass (to get force per unit mass), we see the dependence mathematically:

a = GM/r²
