Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A first-class lever is a lever in which the fulcrum is located between the input effort and the output load. In operation, a force is applied (by pulling or pushing) to a section of the bar, which causes the lever to swing about the fulcrum, overcoming the resistance force on the opposite side

1.Galileo conducted experiments from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. If he dropped a piece of burlap tied into a ball with twine and a 2-pound rock at the same time, what would he have seen and why? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

The time for both of the balls to reach the ground would be the same.

Explanation:

If no air resistance is present, the rate of descent depends only on how far the object has fallen, no matter how heavy the object is. This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. ... In air, a feather and a ball do not fall at the same rate.

A ball of mass 12 kg is released from a height of 2.5 m
find the gravitational potential energy of the ball at point A
and when it reach the ground.
then deduce the kinetic energy of the ball once it reach the ground
(use g=10 N/kg) * 5

Answers

Answer:

300 J

Explanation:

From conservation of energy;

Gravitational potential energy at top = Kinetic Energy at bottom

mgh = ½mv²

We are given;

Mass; m = 12 kg.

Height; h = 2.5 m

g = 10 m/s²

Thus;

mgh = 12 × 2.5 × 10 = 300 J

Since mgh = Kinetic Energy at bottom.

Thus; kinetic energy of the ball once it reach the ground = 300 J

A 0.225 kg sample of tin initially at 97.5°c is dropped into 0.115 kg of water. the initial temperature of the water is 10.0°c. if the specific heat capacity of tin is 230 j/kg • °c, what is the final equilibrium temperature of the tin-water mixture

Answers

Answer:

The final equilibrium temperature of the tin-water mixture is approximately 18.468 °C

Explanation:

The parameters of heat energy transfer from the tin to the water are given as follows;

The mass of the sample of tin, m₁ = 0.225 kg

The initial temperature of the tin, T₁ = 97.5 °C

The mass of the water into which the tin is dropped, m₂ = 0.115 kg

The initial temperature of the water, T₂ = 10.0 °C

The specific heat capacity of tin, c₁ = 230 J/(kg·°C)

The specific heat capacity of water, c₂ = 4,200 J/(kg·°C)

Let 'T' represent the final equilibrium temperature of the tin-water mixture, we have;

The heat lost by the tin, ΔQ[tex]_{tin}[/tex] = The heat gained by the water ΔQ[tex]_{water}[/tex]

∴  ΔQ[tex]_{tin}[/tex] = ΔQ[tex]_{water}[/tex]

Where;

ΔQ[tex]_{tin}[/tex] = m₁·c₁·(T₁ - T)

ΔQ[tex]_{water}[/tex] = m₂·c₂·(T - T₂)

By substitution, we have;

ΔQ[tex]_{tin}[/tex] = 0.225 kg × 230 J/(kg·°C) × (97.5°C - T)

ΔQ[tex]_{water}[/tex] = 0.115 kg × 4,200 J/(kg·°C) × (T - 10.0°C)

From ΔQ[tex]_{tin}[/tex] = ΔQ[tex]_{water}[/tex], we have;

0.225 kg × 230 J/(kg·°C) × (97.5°C - T) = 0.115 kg × 4,200 J/(kg·°C) × (T - 10.0°C)

∴ 5,045.625 J - 51.75 J/°C × T = 483 J/°C × T - 4,830 J

5,045.625 J + 4,830 J = 534.75 J/°C × T

∴ 534.75 J/°C × T = 9,875.625 J

T =  9,875.625 J/(534.75 J/°C) = 18.4677419 °C ≈ 18.468 °C

The final equilibrium temperature of the tin-water mixture, T ≈ 18.468 °C.

which of the following correctly describes the hierarchy of genetic material within a cell

Answers

Answer: D- Each chromosome in a cell is made up of two chromatids, which are each made up of molecules of DNA

Explanation:

A macromolecule is a large molecule that is made of many smaller units. Chromosomes are macromolecules that contain all of the genetic information in a cell. Chromosomes are each made of two smaller units called chromatids. Chromatids are each made up of molecules of DNA. Therefore, the correct description of the hierarchy of genetic material in a cell is that each chromosome in a cell is made up of two chromatids, which are each made up of molecules of DNA. The structures become more and more microscopic as one moves down the hierarchy.

How many degrees are there between the direction of motion and the force of friction?
A. O
B. 270
C. 90
D. 180

Answers

The answer is b!!!!!

The correct option is (d).

Angle should be 180° between the direction of force and the direction of motion of a body as work done is equal to force multiplied by displacement multiplied by cosx.

Friction is a force that opposes motion. When two objects are in contact, friction is acts in a direction opposite to the motion of the object.A force known as friction prevents relative motion between surfaces that are in touch. One of the more basic features of friction is that it always runs parallel to the surfaces with which it makes contact and opposes any motion or attempted motion of the systems with respect to one another.

What is the direction of friction force?When a force is applied to stop it from moving, frictional force provides resistance. As a result, it always moves in the opposite direction of an item in motion. Friction acts on the right when force is applied to the left.

An archer defending a castle is on an 15.5 m high wall. He shoots an arrow straight down at 22.8 m/s. How much time does it take to reach the ground? (Unit = s) Watch your minus signs!​

Answers

Answer:

  about 602 milliseconds

Explanation:

The motion can be approximated by the equation ...

  y = -4.9t^2 -22.8t +15.5

where t is the time since the arrow was released, and y is the distance above the ground.

When y=0, the arrow has hit the ground.

Using the quadratic formula, we find ...

  t = (-(-22.8) ± √((-22.8)^2 -4(-4.9)(15.5)))/(2(-4.9))

  = (22.8 ± √823.64)/(-9.8)

The positive solution is ...

  t ≈ 0.60195193

It takes about 602 milliseconds for the arrow to reach the ground.

A 14-gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mm carries a current of 12.5 What is the potential difference across a 2.00 - m length of the wire? *p=1.47x10^-8

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V=1.76\times 10^{-4}\ V[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of a wire, d = 1.628 mm

Radius, r = 0.814  mm = 0.000814m

Current, I = 12.5 mA

The length of the wire, l = 2m

The resistivity of the wire, [tex]\rho=1.47\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m[/tex]

We need to find the potential difference across the wire. We know that the resistance of the wire is given by :

[tex]R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}[/tex]

Also, V = IR

[tex]\dfrac{V}{I}=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\\V=\dfrac{\rho l I}{A}\\\\V=\dfrac{1.47\times 10^{-8}\times 2\times 12.5\times 10^{-3}}{\pi \times (0.000814)^2}\\\\V=1.76\times 10^{-4}\ V[/tex]

So, the potential difference of the wire is [tex]1.76\times 10^{-4}\ V[/tex].
