Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

The density of ice is less than the density of water.

Answer 2

The ice float on water because the density of ice is less than the density of water.

What is Density?

The density of a material describes how dense it is in a given area. A substance's density is determined by its mass per unit volume. Density is essentially a measure of how tightly something is packed.

It is a particular physical quality of a specific thing. Discovering the density principle was done by the Greek scientist Archimedes. If you are familiar with the formula and the required units, calculating density is simple. Alternatively to the symbol, the letter D can be used to denote density.

ρ=m/v where,

ρ is the density,

m= mass of object and,

v is the volume of the object.

Hence, the density of ice is 917 kg/m³, which is less than the density of water which is 997.7 kg/m³ and due to this reason the ice floats on water.

Se lanza desde el piso una piedra con velocidad vertical de +42 m/s. El punto de referencia se encuentra en el piso. Calcular: a). Escribir la ecuación de posición y la ecuación de la velocidad. b). Calcular en que instante su velocidad es nula. c). Calcular la máxima altura que llego. (Considerar la aceleración de la gravedad: a=9.81m/s2).

Answers

Answer:

a)  y = 42 t - 4,905 t² ,      v = 42 - 9.81 t,  b)   t = 4.281 s , c)   y = 89.9 m

Explanation:

This problem is an example of vertical launch

a) the expression for the position is

         y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

we substitute

          y = 42 t - 4,905 t²

the expression for speed is

        v = v₀ - gt

        v = 42 - 9.81 t

b) the speed is null when v = 0

         v₀ = gt

          t = v₀ / g

          t = 42 / 9.81

          t = 4.281 s

c) for the maximum height we can use the expression

        v² = v₀² - 2gy

    at maximum height v = 0

         y = v₀² / 2g

     let's calculate

        y = 42 2/2 9.81

        y = 89.9 m

If a 0.5 kg ball is thrown up with 250 J of kinetic energy, how high will it go?
(HINT: At the ball's highest point it has stopped.)
KE = 1/2mv2
G = 9.8 m/s2

Answers

Answer:

51.02m

Explanation:

KE = 1/2mv2

Where k.e = 250J

mass = 0.5 kg

g = 9.8 m/s2

250= 1/2×0.5×v^2

250= 0.5×0.5×v^2

250= 0.25v^2

v^2 = 250/0.25

v^2 = 1000

v =√1000

v = 31.62m/s

v^2= u^2-2gh........... (1)

Since the object will stop at it highest point, hence it final velocity there will be zero and since it is moving up against the gravity g= -9.8m/s^2. That was why the formula in equation 1 has a negative sign

From h = u^2/2g

Where v = 31.62m/s

g = 9.8m/s^2

H = (31.62m/s)^2/9.8×2

H= 1000/19.6

= 51.02m

Hence the height of it travelling will be

51.02m

The speed of light in a material is 0.50


c. what is the critical angle of a light ray at the interface between the material and a vacuum?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem indicates that the speed of light in a material medium is 0.5 10⁸ m / s, they ask to find the critical angle between the material and the vacuum

Let's find the refractive index of the material

            n = c / v

           n = 3 10⁸ / 0.5 10⁸

           n = 6

When the material passes from one medium to another, it must comply with the law of refraction

           n₁ sin θ = n₂ sin θ₂

for the angle criticize the angles tea2 = 90

          tea = sin⁻¹n₂/ n₁

The vacuum replacement index is n₂ = 1

         tea = sin⁻¹ (1/6)

         tea = 9.59º

Answer:

30 degrees

Explanation: First, what is the critical angle? Critical angle is the angle from the normal, at which light enters another medium, which causes the reflected light to reflect at an angle of 90 degrees.

Using Snell's Law:

critical angle = sin^-1(n2/n1)

n2 = c/v. In a vacuum this = 1

n1 = c/.5c = 2

critical angle = sin^-1(1/2)=30 degrees

What happens when the mantle melts?

Answers

It produces oceanic crust,

With convection, hot mantle material rises closer to the Earth's surface, raising the geothermal gradient in the area. This causes the temperature in the earth's mantle to rise, which causes the mantle to partially melt. The partial melt contains both liquid and crystals that need a higher temperature to melt.

Partial melting is an important process in geology with respect to the chemical differentiation of crustal rocks. On the Earth, partial melting of the mantle at mid-ocean ridges produces oceanic crust, and partial melting of the mantle and oceanic crust at subduction zones creates continental crust.

A person of mass 55 kg swings on a rope length 4 m from rest (when the rope makes an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical) and collides perfectly inelastically with a 70 kg person on the ground when the rope is exactly vertical. Determine the maximum angle the rope makes with the vertical after the 55 kg person picks up the 70 kg person.

Answers

Answer:

θ = 19.66°

Explanation:

To determine the angle that the rope makes with the vertical for the two people, you first take into account the potential energy of the first person before he swings on the rope:

[tex]U=mgh[/tex]

h: distance to the ground

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

m: mass of the first person = 55 kg

In the image attache below you can notice that the height h is:

[tex]h=4-4cos(30\°)=0.53m[/tex]

Then, the potential energy is:

[tex]U=(55kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.53m)=285.67J[/tex]

When the first person picks up the second person (when the rope is exactly vertical), all the potential energy becomes kinetic energy. Next, when both people reaches the maximum height h' the energy must be equal to the initial potential energy of the first person:

[tex]U'=(m_1+m_2)gh'=285.67\ J[/tex]

From the previous equation you can get h':

[tex]h'=\frac{285.67J}{(55kg+70kg)(9.8m/s^2)}=0.2332m[/tex]

Finally, you obtain the angle between the rope at the height h,' and the vertical, by calculating the following:

[tex]h'=4-4cos(\theta)\\\\\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-h'}{4})=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-0.2332}{4})=19.66\°[/tex]

hence, the angle between the rope and the vertical, when the two people are in the rope is 19.66°

¿Alguien me puede ayudar? Problema: Un niño le pide gastada a su papá y éste le contesta que le dará los $120 que tiene en su bolsillo siempre y cuando conteste cuántas monedas de a $5 y de a $2 tiene en él si en total hay 33. ¿Qué debe contestar el niño si quiere los $120?

Answers

Answer: there are 15 coins of $2 and 18 coins of $5

Explanation:

I will answer in English.

X is the number of $5 coins.

Y is the number of $2 coins.

We have the system of equations:

Y + X = 33

Y*2 + X*5 = 120

first, we must isolate one of the variables in one of the equations and then replace it in the other equation, let's isolate Y in the first equation:

Y = 33 - X.

Then we can replace it in the other equation:

(33 - X)*2 + X*5 = 120

66 - X*2 + X*5 = 120

X*3 = 54

X = 54/3 = 18

and using the equation for Y.

Y = 33 - X = 33 - 18 = 15

So there are 15 coins of $2 and 18 coins of $5

Answer: seen below

Explanation:

a) Water has the highest specific heat capacity in this case while sand has the lowest specific heat capacity.

b) Sand absorb the least energy for it temperature change (increase or decrease). This means that their temperatures change more quickly due to it low specific heat capacity of 0.290J/g°C) at 25°C)

c) using the formula:

Q = m × cP × (final temperature -initial temperature)

where:

Q = heat

m = is the mass

cP = is the mass heat capacity,

T= is the temperature

Q = 2 kg × 600 J/(kg°C) × (30°C - 20°C)

Q = 12000 J

d) in simpler term, The second law of thermodynamics states that when energy changes from one form to another form, entropy The second law of thermodynamics says that when energy changes from one form to another form, or matter moves freely, entropy (which is a measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work) in a closed system increases. This is why your feet gets cold when you put them in the water.

explain how you would measure the volume of irregular shaped object using the displacement method​

Answers

Answer:

Place the object in the graduated cylinder, and record the resulting water volume as "b." Subtract the volume of the water alone from the volume of the water plus the object. For instance, if "b" was 50 milliliters and "a" was 25 milliliters, the volume of the irregularly shaped object would be 25 milliliters.

The volume of the irregular solid can be measured using a graduated cylinder having a known volume of water.

A solid is irregular if it does not fit into any of the known shapes. It is possible to determine the volume of these objects using the displacement method.

In this method, a graduated cylinder containing a known volume of water is used. The irregular solid is now introduced into the cylinder and the displacement of the water is noted.

The displacement of the water is obtained as;

Final volume of water - Initial volume of water. The amount of water displaced is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.

Explanation:

A small object begins a free-fall from a height of =81.5 m at 0=0 s . After τ=2.20 s , a second small object is launched vertically up from the ground with an initial velocity of 0=40.0 m/s . At what height from the ground will the two objects first meet?

Answers

Answer:

33.23 m

Explanation:

At the point where both objects will meet, the vertical height will be equal.

From the equations of motion, the vertical height of the body falling at any time is given as

(y - y₀) = ut + ½gt²

y = vertical height at any time T

y₀ = initial height of the object = 81.5 m

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s (body was dropped)

g = -9.8 m/s²

(y - 81.5) = 0 - 4.9T²

y = 81.5 - 4.9T² (eqn 1)

For an object thrown up, the vertical height of the body at any time, t, is given as

(y - y₀) = ut + ½gt²

y = vertical height of the object at any time t

y₀ = initial height of the object = 0 m

u = initial velocity = 40 m/s

g = -9.8 m/s²

y = 40t - 4.9t² (eqn 2)

At the point where the two objects meet, we equate eqn 1 and eqn 2

y = y

81.5 - 4.9T² = 40t - 4.9t²

But T = (t + 2.2) (Since object 2 was dropped 2.2 s after object 1)

81.5 - 4.9(t + 2.2)² = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 4.9(t² + 4.4t + 4.84) = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 4.9t² - 21.56t - 23.716 = 40t - 4.9t²

81.5 - 21.56t - 23.716 - 40t = 0

57.784 = 61.56t

t = (57.784/61.56) = 0.93866 = 0.94 s

Therefore, the vertical height at t = 0.93866 s is

y = (40×0.93866) - 4.9(0.93866²) = 33.23 m

A 0.10 newton spring toy with a spring constant of 160 newtons per meter is compressed 0.05 meter before it is launched. When released the spring toy pops up and reaches a maximum height of 1.5 meters.

1) How much elastic potential energy is initially stored in the spring?


2)How much internal energy is produced as the toy springs up to its maximum height?

Answers

Answer:

(1) V = 0.2 J (2) 0.05J

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

K = 160 N/m

x = 0.05 m

Now,

(1) we solve for the  initial potential energy stored

Thus,

V = 1/2 kx² = 0.5 * 160 * (0.05)²

Therefore V = 0.2 J

(2)Now, we solve for how much of the internal energy is produced as the toy springs up to its maximum height.

By using the energy conversion, we have the following

ΔV = mgh

=(0.1/9.8) * 9.8 * 1.5 = 0.15J

The internal energy = 0.2 -0.15

=0.05J

If a car accelerates uniformly from rest to 15 meters
per second over a distance of 100 meters, the magnitude of the car’s acceleration is

Answers

Answer:

1.125 m/s²

Explanation:

Applying Newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

Note: u = 0 m/s ( from rest)

make a the subject of the equation above.

a = v²/2s................ Equation 2

Given: v = 15 m/s². s =  100 m

Substitute into equation 2

a = 15²/(2×100)

a = 225/200

a = 1.125 m/s²

The magnitude of the car's acceleration is 1.125 m/s²

The calculation can be as follows;

u= 0

v= 15m/s

s= 100 meters

The formular is

v²= u² + 2as

15² = 0² + 2(a)(100)

225= 200a

a= 225/200

a= 1.125

Hence the initial velocity is 1.125 m/s²

You are pushing a box up a ramp with 70 N of force. If the ramp is made steeper and shorter, what needs to happen to the box for it to continue moving?

Answers

Answer:

A larger force than 70 N will be required for the box to continue moving

Explanation:

A ramp is an inclined plane surface that is tilted to form a slope on its opposite sides

A ramp provides mechanical advantage or force amplification, by allowing less force to lift heavier load from having to move through a longer distance to reach a particular elevation when the slope of the ramp is gentle

Therefore, when the slope is steeper, and shorter, more force than 70 N will be required for the box to continue moving.
