is retractable measuring tape a simple machine?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A simple machine is a device that multiply an applied force by the use of the mechanical advantage built into the machine. Therefore, a simple machine changes the direction in which the applied force acts or the magnitude of the applied force, or both in order to do work

A retractable measuring tape is a device used for length measurement such that the direction of the applied force is reversed during retraction, while the magnitude of the output force is constant and dependent on the coil in the measuring

Therefore, the measuring tape does not have a constant mechanical advantage or act as a force multiplier, and therefore;

It is not a simple machine

A hot cube of iron was heated up using 1500 J of thermal energy and was placed in a beaker of water. Before it was heated, the iron cube was 20.0 ˚C. The cube of iron raised the temperature of the water to 45.0 ˚C. If the iron cube has a mass of 133 g, what is the specific heat capacity of iron?

Answers

Answer:

451.13 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)............... Equation 1

Where Q = Heat, c = specific heat capacity of iron, m = mass of iron, t₂= Final temperature, t₁ = initial temperature.

Make c the subject of the equation

c = Q/m(t₂-t₁).............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: Q = 1500 J, m = 133 g = 0.113 kg, t₁ = 20 °C, t₂ = 45 °C

Substitute these values into equation 2

c = 1500/[0.133(45-20)]

c = 1500/(0.133×25)

c = 1500/3.325

c = 451.13 J/kg.°C

A mass hanging from a pendulum at the end of a string of negligible mass. The string has a length of 0.84 m. With the string hanging vertically, the object is given an initial velocity of 1.4 m/s parallel to the ground and swings upward on a circular arc. Eventually, the object comes to a momentary halt at a point where the string makes an angle θ with its initial vertical orientation and then swings back downward. Find the angle θ.

Answers

Explanation:

tan(theta)=(v^2)/(length of string × g)

=(1.4^2)/(0.84 × 9.8m/s )

=1.96/(8.232)

=0.2380952381

theta=arctan(0.2380952381)

=13.4°

Answers

Answer:

R = 4.77 ohms

Explanation:

Four resistors are given such that,

R₁ = 2 ohms

R₂ = 3 ohms

R₃ = 5 ohms

R₄ = 10 ohms

Here, R₁ and R₂ in series. The equivalent is given by :

R₁₂ = R₁ + R₂

= 2 + 5

R₁₂ = 7 ohms

Similarly, R₃ and R₄ are in series. so,

R₃₄ = R₃ + R₄

= 10+5

R₃₄ = 15 ohms

Now, R₁₂ and R₃₄ are in parallel. So,

[tex]\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_{12}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{34}}\\\\\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{7}+\dfrac{1}{15}\\\\R=4.77\ \Omega[/tex]

So, the equivalent resistance s 4.77 ohms.

Answer:

.04 kg m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is simply mass multiplied by velocity given by p = mv. You can consider momentum as mass in motion.

Before the collision, the data given for the toy train:

v = 0.5m/s

m = 75g

We need to convert grams into the SI unit of mass, kg.

75g / 1000g * 1kg = 0.075kg

Using p = mv, we can determine:

p = 0.075kg * 0.5m/s = 0.0375 kg m/s

Rounding to the value of 1 sig-fig, it comes out to be 0.04 kg m/s.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The Law of Momentum Conservation applies, and the formula for us here specific to this problem is:

[tex][(m_bv_b)+(m_mv_m)]_b=[(m_b+m_m)v_{both}]_a[/tex] and filling in:

[(1.50*4.50)+60.0*0)] = [(1.50 + 60.0)v] and

6.75 + 0 = 61.5v so

C. When the independent variable is continuous and shows a causal link to the
dependent variable,
D. When there is no independent variable.

Answers

Answer:

B. When the independent variable composed of categories and does not show a relationship to the dependent variable

Explanation:

A bar graph, is a graph used for presenting data grouped into categories, which are the independent variables of the graph, and the measurement of each category, which are represented as rectangular bars having lengths proportional to the value of the category, on a chart

In the bar graph or chart, there is no direct relationship between the categories, which are the x-values and the dependent variables , which are the length of the bars, the y-values, as the length of the rectangular bar in one category, cannot be obtained from another category through a relationship

Therefore, the correct option is option is when the independent variable composed of categories and does not show a relationship to the dependent variable

If a train traveled 400 miles north and traveled back 275 miles south and the total trip took 5 hours to complete, what was the average velocity of the train in mph?

Answers

The average velocity is 25 mph north.

Average velocity = displacement/time

Displacement =

(400 mi north) + (275 mi south)

Displacement = 125 mi north

Average V = (125 mi north) / 5 hours.

Average V = 25 mph north

Answers

Complete question:

(b) How much energy must be supplied to boil 2kg of water? providing that the specific latent heat of vaporization of water is 330 kJ/kg. The initial temperature of the water is 20 ⁰C

Answer:

The energy that must be supplied to boil the given mass of the water is 672,000 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of water, m = 2 kg

heat of vaporization of water, L =  330 kJ/kg

initial temperature of water, t = 20 ⁰C

specific heat capacity of water, c = 4200 J/kg⁰C

Assuming no mass of the water is lost through vaporization, the energy needed to boil the given water is calculated as;

Q = mc(100 - 20)

Q = 2 x 4200 x (80)  

Q = 672,000 J

Q = 672,000 J

Q = 672,000 J

Therefore, the energy that must be supplied to boil the given mass of the water is 672,000 J

for an ideal monoatomic gas, the internal energy U os due to the kinetic energy and U=3/2RT per mole.show that cv=3/2R per mole and Cp=5/2RPer mole​

Answers

Answer:

i. Cv =3R/2

ii. Cp = 5R/2

Explanation:

i. Cv = Molar heat capacity at constant volume

Since the internal energy of the ideal monoatomic gas is U = 3/2RT and Cv = dU/dT

Differentiating U with respect to T, we have

= d(3/2RT)/dT

= 3R/2

ii. Cp - Molar heat capacity at constant pressure

Cp = Cv + R

substituting Cv into the equation, we have

Cp = 3R/2 + R

taking L.C.M

Cp = (3R + 2R)/2

Cp = 5R/2

A person weighs 60 kg. The area under the foot of the person is 150 cm2. Find the pressure exerted on the ground by the person. (Take g 10m/s2)

Answers

Answer:

40000 N/m²

Explanation:

Applying,

P =  F/A................... Equation 1

Where P = Pressure, F = Force, A = Area.

From the question,

The force(F) exerted by the person's foot is thesame as it's weight.

F = W = mg............ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the person, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = mg/A................ Equation 3

Given: m = 60 kg, g = 10 m/s², A = 150 cm² = (150/10000) m² = 0.015 m²

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (60×10)/0.015

P = 600/0.015

P = 40000 N/m²

Which is exothermic? Which is endothermic? How do you know?

Answers

Answer:

Option 1 is endothermic

Option 2 is exothermic

Explanation:

In Chemistry, Exothermic reactions are reactions whereby heat energy is transferred to the surroundings and the temperature of the surroundings increases. Endothermic reactions are those whereby heat energy from the surroundings is absorbed and thereby making the temperature of the surroundings to decrease.

This means in simple terms that endothermic reactions will have heat on the reaction side of the equation while exothermic will have heat on the product side of the equation.

Thus;

Option 1 is endothermic since it has heat absorbed on the reactant side.

Option 2 is exothermic since it gives off heat on the product side.
