A particle is moving with a constant speed of 25 m/s in 90 m radius circle what is the angular speed in radian per second about the center of a circle

Answers

Answer:

the angular speed in radian per second about the center of a circle is 0.278 rad/s

Explanation:

Given;

Linear velocity v = 25m/s

Radius of circular path r = 90m

The linear velocity of the particle can be expressed as a function of the angular speed as;

Linear velocity = angular speed × radius of path

v = wr

w = v/r

Where;

v = linear velocity

r = radius

w = angular speed

Substituting the given values, we have;

w = 25/90 = 0.278 rad/s

the angular speed in radian per second about the center of a circle is 0.278 rad/s

States of matter question

Answers

Answer:

Solid and liquid

Explanation:

In solid state, the particles are tightly packed together hence forming a regular shape.

In liquid state, the particles are tightly packed together with some degree of movement.

In gaseous state, the particles are loosely packed and free to move randomly.

Since the particles of both solid and liquid state are tightly packed together, their corresponding density will only show a slight difference and hence almost similar.

Where does the charge of a circuit go when it reaches a capacitor?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

When the charge of a circuit reaches the capacitor, all charge is distributed in the surface of the capacitor in order to create an electric field. The opposite of this charge is also in the capacitor, but separated.

When the capacitor receive more charges, its stability changes. Thus, the charge in one of the plates of the capacitor demands that charge on the other plate move out of the capacitor to equilibrate the charge. Thus, the current in the circuit is not interrupted.

Answer:

It gets stored somewhere in the capacitor

I a liter jar contains 0.5 moles of gas at a pressure of 2 ATM what is the temperature of the gas

Answers

Answer:

The temperature of the gas is 48.75 Kelvin.

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation as shown

PV = nRT where;

P is the pressure of the gas in ATM

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvin

From the formula, [tex]T = \frac{PV}{nR}[/tex]

Given the following parameters V = 1litre, n = 0.5moles. pressure = 2ATM

R = 0.08206 atm L/molK

On substituting to get the temperature we have:

[tex]T = \frac{2*1}{0.08206*0.5} \\T = \frac{2}{0.04103}\\T = 48.75Kelvin[/tex]

A man takes a brick out of the fire when it's at 285 degree Celsius,he drops it in a bucket of water.then covers the bucket.the bucket and cover are made of an insulating material.the bucket contains 2.6 kg of ice originally at -5 degree celsius.the 1.3 kg brick is made of iron .which has a specific heat of 448J/kg degree celsius.lets find out the temperature of brick and water once equilibrium is reached.specific heats of ice , liquid water,steam are 2090,4186,1970 respectively​

Answers

Answer: The equilibrium temperature of brick and water is 2.82 Kelvin

Explanation:

Initial Temperature Ø of the brick = 285 degree Celsius

Initial temperature of ice = - 5 degree Celsius

Mass of iron = 1.3kg

Specific heat capacity c of iron = 448J/kg

In thermal experiments,

Heat lost = heat gain.

Let's first calculate the heat lost

The brick will loose heat.

H =mcØ

Heat lost = 1.3 × 448 × (285 - T)

Heat lost = 582.4( 285 - T )

Now let's calculate for heat gain

Heat gain = mcØ + mcØ + mcØ

Heat gain = [(2.6×2090) + (2.6×4186) + (2.6×1970)](T - -5)

Heat gain = 5434 + 10883.6 + 5122(T+5)

Heat gain = 21439.6( T + 5)

Equating the heat lost and the heat gain leads to

582.4( 285 - T) = 21439.6(T+5)

Open both bracket

165984 - 582.4T = 21439.6T + 107198

Collect the like terms

21439.6T - 582.4T = 165984 - 107198

20857.2T = 58786

T = 58786/20857.2

T = 2.82 Kelvins

The equilibrium temperature of brick and water is 2.82 Kelvin

Answers

Answer:

The dog's mass is 15.3kg.

Explanation:

Given that the formula for kinetic energy is k.e = 1/2×m×v² where m represents mass and v is the velocity. Then, you have to substitute the following values into the formula :

[tex]k.e = \frac{1}{2} \times m \times {v}^{2} [/tex]

Let k.e = 6000,

Let v = 28,

[tex]6000 = \frac{1}{2} \times m \times {28}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]6000 \div 784 = \frac{1}{2} \times m[/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times m = \frac{375}{49} [/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{375}{49} \div \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{375}{49} \times 2[/tex]

Using Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc², the amount of energy released can be determined.

The cuboid and the cube below are placed on the floor. The cuboid has a weight of 60N and the cube has a weight of 40N. Which exerts a greater pressure on the ground? Prove your answer.

Answers

Hello. You forgot to put the image that shows information needed to answer that question. The image is attached below:

Answer:

The cuboid and the cube exert the same pressure on the floor.

Explanation:

To answer this question, we must first consider that the area of the cuboid is equal to 24cm^2, while the area of the cube is equal to 16cm^2.

With that, we must calculate the pressure that each exerts, with the formula:

P = F / A

Cuboid: P = 60 / 0.0024 = 25000 N/m^2

Cube: P = 40 / 0.0016 = 25000 N/m^2

Answer:

Check Explanation

Explanation:

Pressure applied on a surface is defined as the force applied divided by the perpendicular cross sectional Area to the applied force

Pressure exerted by the cuboid = (weight of the cuboid)/(surface Area of the base of the cuboid touching the ground)

Weight of the cuboid = 60 N

surface Area of the base of the cuboid touching the ground = A(cuboid)

P(cuboid) = [60/A(cuboid)]

Pressure exerted by the cube = (weight of the cube)/(surface Area of the base of the cube touching the ground)

Weight of the cube = 40 N

surface Area of the base of the cube touching the ground = A(cube)

P(cube) = [40 ÷ A(cube)]

So, the diagram for the two structures, a cube and a cuboid is still missing from the internet, without this diagram and the surface area of their bases, we cannot truly tell which structure is undergoing which pressure. So, what I've done will make it very much simpler if all the diagrams are beyond.

P(cuboid) = [60/A(cuboid)]

P(cube) = [40/A(cube)]

Plugging in the surface areas, esp when their surface areas would be known wicked.

That way, the pressure appears so, you will go!!!

a dolphin emits a sonar chirp, and hears an echo from a fish 0.325 s later. if the speed of sound in the ocean is 1520 m/s, how far is the fish from the dolphin? (unit=m/s)

Answers

Answer:

distance = 1/2 (0.325) × 1520

= 247m

The  fish will be approximately 494 meters away from the dolphin.

To determine the distance between the dolphin and the fish, we can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

In this scenario, the speed we need to consider is the speed of sound in the ocean, which is given as 1520 m/s. The time delay between the emission of the sonar chirp and the reception of the echo is 0.325 seconds.

By substituting these values into the formula, we can calculate the distance:

Distance = 1520 m/s × 0.325 s

Multiplying the speed of sound by the time delay gives us:

Distance = 494 m

Therefore, the fish is approximately 494 meters away from the dolphin.

The reason we can use the formula Distance = Speed × Time in this scenario is because the speed of sound is constant in the given medium (ocean), and the time delay represents the round-trip time for the sound wave to travel from the dolphin to the fish and back.

Convection is usually described as a ___________; when something is heated, it rises, cools, and then falls in a circular pattern.

Answers

Answer:

Current

Explanation:

Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat. Simply put, Convection is the circular motion that happens when warmer air or liquid — which has faster moving molecules, making it less dense — rises, while the cooler air or liquid drops down.

An everyday example of convection is boiling water ; The heat passes from the burner into the pot, heating the water at the bottom. The water at the bottom rises and is replaced by the water at the top of the pot.

This rise of less dense water at a higher temperature and fall of denser water at a lower temperature sets up a convention current circularly until the water boils. This is a typical example of the day to day application of convection currents.

°C – 0/100 – 0 = °F – 32/212 –32

°C/100 = °F – 32 /180

Cross multiply

100(°F – 32) = 180 x °C

Divide both side by 100

°F – 32 = 180 x °C /100

°F – 32 = 9/5 x °C
