You are an astronaut in space far away from any gravitational field, and you throw a rock as hard as you can. The rock will: slowly slow down and stop continue at the same speed forever continue to accelerate at the rate it was when it left your hand

Answers

Answer 1

the answer to that question is the second option

Answer 2
Final answer:

Drawing from Newton's first law of motion, a rock thrown in space, distant from any significant gravitational field, would continue at the same speed in perpetuity.

Explanation:

In the context of Physics, and in particular Newton's first law of motion, the rock you throw in space, far from any gravitational field, will continue at the same speed forever. This law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. In space, far from any significant gravitational field, there are essentially no external forces to slow the rock down or change its direction, so it will keep moving at the speed it had when it left your hand.

jose buys a new moped. He travels 3km south and then 4 km east. How far does he need to go to get back to where he started?

Answers

4km. its a trick question obviously lol

Answer: 5km by straight line, 7km by route.

Explanation:

The distance by route is 3km south and then 4km east, notice that the distances are perpendicular to each other, so the total distance traveled (by a straight line) is:

D = √((3km)^2 + (4km)^2) = √(9km^2 + 16km^2) = (√25)km = 5km

So the distance by a straight line that he needs to go back to where he started is 5km, and if he wants to get back by route, he must do 4km to the west and then 3km to the north, so a total of 7km

Answers

Answer:

stove burner --> pan -- > bottom of pan handle --> top of pan handle

Explanation:

Conduction is one of the three methods of transfer of heat, and it occurs when the heat is transferred by contact/collisions between the molecules of two different mediums/objects (or also between molecules of different parts of the same object).

In this case, the transfer of heat by conduction occurs as follows:

- The stove burner is heated, and it is in contact with the pan --> the molecules of the stove burner move faster (they have more kinetic energy), so they transfer thermal energy (heat) by conduction to the molecules of the pan

- The pan is heated, and the same process occurs, but this time the heat is transferred to the bottom of the pan handle, which is attached to the pan

- Then, the bottom of the pan handle becomes hot, and by conduction heat is transferred also the part of the handle which is farther from the pan, so to the top part of the handle

Answers

Ampère's law is the proper law to describe the magnetic field in a nonlinear wire, relating the circulation of the magnetic field to the electric current passing through the circuit. Hence option D is correct.

The law that describes the magnetic field in a nonlinear wire is Ampère's law. Ampère's law states that the magnetic field around an electric current is proportional to the current, with each segment of current contributing to the magnetic field. Specifically, it describes how the circulation of the magnetic field, or the line integral around a closed curve (denoted as C), is related to the electric current passing through the surface (denoted as S) that is bounded by the curve C. Importantly, the surface can be of any shape, allowing for the application of Ampère's law to wires of arbitrary configurations, including nonlinear wires.

Answers

kinematic equation used, g=10m/s/s approx


(a) 39.6 m/s and 30.7 m/s

Explanation:

Use the formula for speed as a function of distance made in a uniformly decelerated motion:

[tex]v_s^2 = v_0^2 -2sa[/tex]

with v_s the instantaneous speed at distance s and v_0 the initial speed (right after the explosion). "a" is the acceleration due to friction force, with negative sign in front of that term reflecting the fact the friction force acts against the direction of the motion. The scene after the explosion implies the fragments have come to a halt with the respective distances shown in the figure, i.e., for each fragment:

[tex]0 = v_0^2 -2sa[/tex]

and the initial speed v_0 remains to be determined:

[tex]v_0=\sqrt{2sa}[/tex]

The deceleration "a" due to friction can be found using the information we are given: the mass of a fragment and the coefficient of dynamic friction of 0.4:

[tex]F_{friction} = \mu\cdot m\cdot g \implies a = \mu\cdot g = 0.4\cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=3.92\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

So the initial velocities just after the explosion, as implied by the distances of 200m (v01) and 120m (v02) are, respectively:

[tex]v_{01}=\sqrt{2\cdot200m\cdot 3.92\frac{m}{s^2}}=39.6\frac{m}{s}\\v_{02}=\sqrt{2\cdot120m\cdot 3.92\frac{m}{s^2}}=30.7\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

(b) The speed of the third fragment is 31.7 m/s

Explanation:

Use the law of conservation of the momentum. At the time of the explosion there were three fragments. For two of them we have determined the initial speed in (a). Now we know that the total momentum of the system (container) right before the fragments were set into motion was 0. The total of the moment vectors (magnitudes with their directions) should still be 0 right after the explosion. Given the angle between the paths of fragment 0.5kg and 1kg, the total vector of their momentum can be calculated

[tex]\overline{p}_{12} = m_1 \overline{v}_1 +m_2\overline{v}_2\\[/tex]

and from the conservation law we know that the momentum of the third piece must be

[tex]\overline{p}_3=-\overline{p}_{12}[/tex]

in particular, its magnitude will be same as the magnitude of the resultant vector, counteracting (at an angle 180 degrees from the resultant). This will eventually allow us to determine the speed of the third fragment. The magnitudes are:

[tex] |\overline{p}_{1}| = 0.5kg\cdot 39.6 \frac{m}{s} = 19.8 kg\frac{m}{s}\\|\overline{p}_{2}|=1.0kg\cdot 30.7\frac{m}{s}=30.7kg\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

and the resulting moment:

[tex] |\overline{p}_{12}| = \sqrt{|\overline{p}_1|^2+|\overline{p}_2|^2+2|\overline{p}_1||\overline{p}_2|\cos 40^\circ}=47.6 kg\frac{m}{s}=|\overline{p}_3|[/tex]

and so the speed of the third fragment is 

[tex]v_{03} = \frac{|\overline{p}_3|}{1.5kg}=\frac{47.6kg\frac{m}{s}}{1.5kg}=31.7\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

(c) The total kinetic energy is 1617 Joules

Explanation:

[tex]E_k = \frac{1}{2}\sum_{i=1}^3 m_i v_{0i}^2 = 0.5\cdot(0.5\cdot 39.6^2+1\cdot 30.7^2+1.5\cdot 31.7^2)kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}=1617.0J[/tex]

(d) The area will be proportional to the fourth power of the initial velocities.

Explanation:

Consider the area of a circle with radius equal to the distance a fragment traveled. We can choose a fragment with largest such distance or choose the average of the areas for each fragment, or another geometric measure, however, this choice won't affect the qualitative answer.

The distance of a fragment "i"  traveled as a function of the initial speed is

[tex]s_i = \frac{v_{0i}^2}{2a}[/tex]

The circular area is then

[tex]A_i = \pi(\frac{v_{0i}^2}{2a})^2\implies A_i \propto v_{0i}^4[/tex]

The area due to a fragment with initial velocity is proportional to the fourth power of that velocity. This can be generalized to all fragments by assuming a common factor amplifying the velocities. Such factor will also show up in the fourth power in the area formula above, justifying the answer: the effect of an amplification of the initial speed has a fourth-power effect on the area of spread. 

At a distance of 1 A.U., the earth takes one year to travel around the sun. How far away is a planet that takes eight years to go around the sun?

Answers

Answer:

4 AU

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Kepler's third law, which states that the ratio between the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the Sun and the cube of its average distance from the Sun is constant for every planet orbiting the Sun:

[tex]\frac{T^2}{r^3}=k[/tex]

where

T is the orbital period

r is the average distance of the planet from the Sun

If we take two planets 1 and 2, the equation can be rewritten as

[tex]\frac{T_1^2}{r_1^3}=\frac{T_2^2}{r_2^3}[/tex]

In this problem, we have:

[tex]T_1 = 1 y[/tex] is the orbital period of the Earth

[tex]r_1 = 1 AU[/tex] is the distance of the Earth from the Sun

[tex]T_2 = 8 y[/tex] is the orbital period of the second planet

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate r2, the averag distance of the other planet from the Sun:

[tex]\frac{r_2^3}{T_2^2}=\frac{r_1^3}{T_1^2}\\r_2 = \sqrt[3]{\frac{r_1 ^2 T_2^2}{T_1^2}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(1 AU)^3(8 y)^2}{(1 y)^2}} =4 AU[/tex]

The word problem is about finding the dimensions of a garden using a given amount of fencing material, applying the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, and considering that the length is twice the width.

Imagine you have a small garden in the shape of a rectangle. The length of the garden is twice its width. You want to put a fence around the entire garden to keep the rabbits out. If you have 30 meters of fencing material available, what are the dimensions of your garden?

To solve this problem, we need to set up an equation using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, which is P = 2l + 2w, where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width. Since the length is twice the width, we can express the length as l = 2w. Substituting this into the perimeter formula gives us P = 2(2w) + 2w, which simplifies to P = 6w. Knowing the total perimeter is 30 meters, we can find the width using 30 = 6w, which yields w = 5 meters. The length, being twice the width, is then l = 10 meters.

A person weighing 490N stands on a scale in an elevator. What does the scale read (normal force) when the elevator rises at a constant velocity of 5 m/s?

Answers

Answer:

490 N

Explanation:

The elevator is rising at constant velocity: this means the acceleration of the system is zero, so according to Newton's second law, the net force on the system is also zero:

[tex]F_{net} = ma =0[/tex]

There are two forces acting on the person standing on the scale:

- its weight, downward, whose magnitude is W=490 N

- The normal force of the scale on the person, N, which is upward

Since the net force must be zero, we have:

[tex]W-N=0[/tex]

From which we find the normal force:

[tex]N=W=490 N[/tex]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the car, m = 2000 kg

Acceleration of the car, [tex]a=4\ m/s^2[/tex]

We need to find the force used to accelerate the car. The product of mass and acceleration is called the force exerted to an object. It is given by :

A spring with a spring constant value of 2500 is compressed 32 cm. A 1.5-kg rock is placed on top of it, then the spring is released. Approximately how high will the rock rise? 9 m 17 m 27 m 85 m

Answers

Answer:

9 m

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy initially stored in the spring is given by:

[tex]U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2[/tex]

where

k = 2500 N/m is the spring constant

x = 32 cm = 0.32 m is the compression of the spring

Substituting:

[tex]U=\frac{1}{2}(2500 N/m)(0.32 m)^2=128 J[/tex]

Due to the law of conservation of energy, when the spring is released all this energy is converted into kinetic energy of the rock, which starts moving upward. As the rock reaches its maximum height, all the energy has been converted into gravitational potential energy:

[tex]U=mgh[/tex]

where

m = 1.5 kg is the rock's mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

h = ? is the maximum height reached by the rock

Using U=128 J, we find h:

What must happen to the temperature of a material for thermal expansion to occur.

Answers

in most cases the temperature must increase for thermal expansion to occur. Most substances expand as temperature increases because the atoms or molecules vibrate faster as temperature increases and experience greater separation.

Thermal expansion occurs when the temperature of a material increases, leading to greater kinetic energy and separation between atoms, causing the material to expand in all dimensions.

For thermal expansion to occur in a material, the temperature of that material must increase. This increase in temperature results in an increase in the kinetic energy of the material's atoms or molecules. As discussed in the Kinetic Theory, in a solid, this kinetic energy manifests as small, rapid vibrations which cause atoms to push neighboring atoms or molecules slightly farther apart from each other.

An increase in the average separation between particles translates into an expansion of the material in all dimensions. This behavior is observed in everyday phenomena, such as the buckling of railroad tracks due to thermal expansion. The degree to which a material expands in response to temperature change can be quantified by its coefficient of thermal expansion, which generally varies with temperature.

5. Where would a roller coaster have the greatest potential energy? A. at the top of a hill B. halfway up the hill C. halfway down the hill D. at the bottom of the hill

Answers

A. at the top of a hill

Final answer:

The roller coaster would have the greatest potential energy at the top of a hill, as potential energy is greatest at the highest point. Option A

Explanation:

The roller coaster would have the greatest potential energy at the top of a hill (option A). At the top of the hill, the roller coaster has the most potential energy because it is at the highest point and has the greatest ability to do work.

As the roller coaster goes down the hill, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.

In terms of energy, potential energy is at its maximum at the top of the hill and decreases as the roller coaster moves down, while kinetic energy is at its minimum at the top of the hill and increases as the roller coaster gains speed. Option A

An 8.0newton block is accelerating down a frictionless ramo inclined at 15 degrees to the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the net force causing the blocks acceleration?

1. 0N
2. 2.1N
3. 7.7N
4. 8.0N

Answers

Final answer:

The magnitude of the net force causing the block's acceleration can be found using Newton's second law of motion. For a block on a frictionless ramp inclined at 15 degrees, the net force is equal to the weight of the block multiplied by the sine of the angle of incline. In this case, the magnitude of the net force is approximately 2.1 newtons.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the net force causing the block's acceleration can be determined using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force on an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration. Since the ramp is frictionless, the only force acting on the block is its weight. We can break the weight into two components: the force along the ramp (parallel) and the force perpendicular to the ramp.

The force along the ramp can be found by multiplying the weight by the sine of the angle of incline, which is 15 degrees. The force perpendicular to the ramp is the weight multiplied by the cosine of the angle of incline. Since there is no force perpendicular to the ramp, we only need to consider the force along the ramp. Given that the weight of the block is 8.0 newtons, the magnitude of the net force causing the block's acceleration is 8.0 newtons multiplied by the sine of 15 degrees, which is approximately 2.1 newtons. Therefore, the correct option is 2.1N.

Final answer:

The magnitude of the net force causing the block's acceleration down a 15-degree frictionless incline is 2.1N, calculated using the gravitational force component along the incline.

Explanation:

The student is asking about the magnitude of the net force causing acceleration in a block sliding down a frictionless incline. The block has a weight of 8.0 newtons, and the incline is at a 15-degree angle to the horizontal. To find the net force, we need to calculate the component of the gravitational force that acts along the incline. This is done by multiplying the weight of the block by the sine of the angle of the incline.

Here's the calculation: net force (F_net) = weight (mg) × sin(θ), where g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²) and θ is the incline angle. Plugging in the known values, F_net = 8.0 N × sin(15°). The sine of 15 degrees is approximately 0.2588. So, F_net = 8.0 N × 0.2588 ≈ 2.07 N.

Therefore, the correct answer is 2.1N, which is the magnitude of the net force causing the block's acceleration down the incline.
