Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Person's body pulling on the earth

Explanation:

The weight of an object is the attraction of a person's body toward the Earth. The weight of an object is given by :

Weight (W) = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)

We know that, for an action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, there must be a reaction force for the weight of an object. The reaction force must be the person's body pulling on the earth.

How far above the bottom of the tank could a second hole be cut so that the stream emerging from it could have the same range as for the first hole

Answers

Answer: hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

Water stands at a depth H in a large open tank whose side walls are vertical  . A hole is made in one of the walls at a depth h below the water surface. Part B How far above the bottom of the tank could a second hole be cut so that the stream emerging from it could have the same range as for the first hole

answer :

At Height ( h ) from the bottom of Tank

Explanation:

Determine how far above the bottom of the tank a second hole be cut

For the second hole to have the same range as the first hole

Range of first hole = Velocity of efflux of water * time of fall of water

                               =  √ (2gh) * √( 2g (H - h) / g)

                               = √ ( 4(H-h) h)

Hence the Height at which the second hole should be placed to exercise same range of stream emerging = h from the bottom of the Tank

When hydrogen peroxide antiseptic is tightly capped and left on the shelf for a long period of time, the bottle is observed to swell. When opened, it “hisses” noticeably. Explain these observations. Is the antiseptic likely to be as effective?

Answers

Answer:

The hydrogen peroxide decomposes as: [tex]H_2O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O+O_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide antiseptic although tightly capped but left on the shelf for a long time leads to swollen bottle and opens with a hissing sound because hydrogen peroxide reacts with air in presence of light to dissociate into water and oxygen molecules that leads to high volume of content in the tightly closed bottle and formation of water molecules from hydrogen peroxide.

Once the hydrogen peroxide has turned into water molecules it is no longer effective as an antiseptic.

Answer:

A. bends towards the Equator.

Explanation:

Rossby waves are inertial waves that are naturally occurring in a rotating fluids. These waves are also called as the planetary waves.

The Rossby waves are undulated that occur in the polar front jet stream when there is a significant differences in the temperatures between the polar and the tropical air masses.

It occurs when the polar air masses moves towards the equator and when the tropical air masses moves towards the pole.  It is formed when the air bends away from the poles and bends towards the equator.

Hence the correct option is (A).

The tendon from the flexor hallucis longus muscle in the hindlimb of a turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) has a resilience of 0.93. If 9.00 J of work are done on the tendon to stretch it out, how many Joules of work does the tendon do as it is relaxing?

Answers

Answer:

8.37 Joules

Explanation:

The amount of energy that a substance, such as animal tissue or rubber can take and yet return to its original condition is known as resilience. When we stress such a substance and then let it restore to its previous state, we are referring to the substance to maintain its elastic area of the stress-strain curve.

From the given information:

the resilence is 0.93

The amount of work done during stretching of the tendon = 9.00 J

Thus,

the work done when relaxing = 0.93 × 9.00 J

= 8.37 Joules

The latent heat of vaporization of water is roughly 10 times the latent heat of fusion of water. The amount of heat required to boil away 1 kg of water is __________ the amount of heat required to melt 1 kg of ice.

Answers

Answer:

The amount of heat required to boil away 1 kg of water is 10 times the amount of heat required to melt 1 kg of ice

Explanation:

let the latent heat of fusion of ice  = L

then, the latent heat of vaporization of water = 10L

The heat of fusion of 1 kg of ice = 1 x L = L

The heat of vaporization 1 kg of water = 1 x 10L = 10L

Therefore, the amount of heat required to boil away 1 kg of water is 10 times the amount of heat required to melt 1 kg of ice

A man weighing 720 N and a woman weighing 500 N have the same momentum. What is the ratio of the man's kinetic energy Km to that of the woman Kw?

Answers

Answer:

Because weight W = M g, the ratio of weights equals the ratio of masses.

(M_m g)/ (M_w g) = [ (p^2 Man )/ (2 K_man)] / [ (p^2 Woman )/ (2 K_woman)

but p's are equal, so

K_m/K_m = (M_w g)/(M_m g) = W_woman / W_man = 450/680 = 0.662Explanation:

Calculate the period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m

Answers

Answer: The period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m is 5.73 sec.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 5 kg

Spring constant = 6 N/m

Formula used to calculate period is as follows.

[tex]T = 2 \pi \sqrt\frac{m}{k}[/tex]

where,

T = period

m = mass

k = spring constant

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]T = 2 \pi \sqrt\frac{m}{k}\\= 2 \times 3.14 \times \sqrt\frac{5}{6}\\= 5.73 s[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m is 5.73 sec.

A ship is flying away from Earth at 0.9c (where c is the speed of light). A missile is fired that moves toward the Earth at a speed of 0.5c relative to the ship. How fast does the missile move relative to the Earth

Answers

Answer:

the required speed with which the missile move relative to the Earth is -0.727c

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

relative velocity relation;

u' = u-v / 1 - [tex]\frac{uv}{c^2}[/tex]

so let V[tex]_B[/tex] represent the velocity as seen by an external reference frame; u=V[tex]_B[/tex]

and let V[tex]_A[/tex] represent the speed of the secondary reference frame; v=V[tex]_A[/tex]

hence, u' is the speed of B as seen by A

so

u' = V[tex]_B[/tex]-V[tex]_A[/tex] / 1 - [tex]\frac{V_BV_A}{c^2}[/tex]

now, given that; V[tex]_A[/tex] = 0.9c  and V[tex]_B[/tex]  = 0.5c

we substitute

u' = ( 0.5c - 0.9c ) / 1 - [tex]\frac{(0.5c)(0.9c)}{c^2}[/tex]

u' = ( 0.5c - 0.9c ) / 1 - [tex]\frac{c^2(0.5)(0.9)}{c^2}[/tex]

u' = ( 0.5c - 0.9c ) / 1 - (0.5 × 0.9)

u' = ( -0.4c ) / 1 - 0.45

u' = -0.4c / 0.55

u' = -0.727c

Therefore, the required speed with which the missile move relative to the Earth is -0.727c

A scenario where reaction time is important is when driving on the highway. During the delay between seeing an obstacle and reacting to avoid it (or to slam on the brakes!) you are still moving at full highway speed. Calculate how much distance you cover in meters before you start to put your foot on the brakes if you are travelling 65 miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

66.83 meters

Explanation:

After a quick online search, it seems that scientists calculate the average reaction time of individuals as 2.3 seconds between seeing an obstacle and putting their foot on the brakes. Now that we have this reaction time we need to turn the miles/hour into meters/second.

1 mile = 1609.34 meters  (multiply these meters by 65)

65 miles = 104,607 meters

1 hour = 3600 seconds

Therefore the car was going 104,607 meters every 3600 seconds. Let's divide these to find the meters per second.

[tex]\frac{104,607}{3600} = \frac{29.0575 meters}{1 second}[/tex]

Now we simply multiply these meters by 2.3 seconds to find out the distance covered before the driver puts his/her foot on the brakes...

29.0575m * 2.3s = 66.83 meters

Two identical satellites orbit the earth in stable orbits. Onesatellite orbits with a speed vat a distance rfrom the center of the earth. The second satellite travels at aspeed that is less than v.At what distance from the center of the earth does the secondsatellite orbit?At a distance that is less than r.At a distance equal to r.At a distance greater than r.Now assume that a satellite of mass m is orbiting the earth at a distance r from the center of the earth with speed v_e. An identical satellite is orbiting the moon at thesame distance with a speed v_m. How does the time T_m it takes the satellite circling the moon to make onerevolution compare to the time T_e it takes the satellite orbiting the earth to make onerevolution?T_m is less than T_e.T_m is equal to T_e.T_m is greater than T_e.

Answers

Answer:

a. At a distance greater than r

b. T_m is greater than T_e.

Explanation:

a. Two identical satellites orbit the earth in stable orbits. One satellite orbits with a speed vat a distance r from the center of the earth. The second satellite travels at a speed that is less than v. At what distance from the center of the earth does the second satellite orbit?

Since the centripetal force on any satellite, F equals the gravitational force F' at r,

and F = mv²/r and F' = GMm/r² where m = mass of satellite, v = speed of satellite, G = universal gravitational constant, M = mass of earth and r = distance of satellite from center of earth.

Now, F = F'

mv²/r = GMm/r²

v² = GM/r

v = √GM/r

Since G and M are constant,

v ∝ 1/√r

So, if the speed decreases, the radius of the orbit increases.

Since the second satellite travels at a speed less than v, its radius, r increases since v ∝ 1/√r.

So, the distance the second satellite orbits is at a distance greater than r

b. An identical satellite is orbiting the moon at the same distance with a speed v_m. How does the time T_m it takes the satellite circling the moon to make one revolution compare to the time T_e it takes the satellite orbiting the earth to make one revolution?

Since the speed of the satellite, v = √GM/r where M = mass of planet

Since the satellite is orbiting at the same distance, r is constant

So, v ∝ √M

Since mass of earth M' is greater than mass of moon, M", the speed of satellite circling moon, v_m is less than v the speed of satellite circling earth at the same distance, r

Now, period T = 2πr/v where r = radius of orbit and v = speed of satellite

Since r is constant for both orbits, T ∝ 1/v

Now, since the speed of the speed of the satellite on earth orbit v  is greater than the speed of the satellite orbiting the moon, v_m, and T ∝ 1/v, it implies that the period of the satellite orbiting the earth, T_e is less than the period of the satellite orbiting the moon, T_m since there is an inverse relationship between T and v. T_e is less T_m implies T_m is greater than T_e

So, T_m is greater than T_e.

A 2 kg object traveling at 5 m s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides head-on with and sticks to a 3 kg object initially at rest. Which of the following correctly identifies the change in total kinetic energy and the resulting speed of the objects after the collision? Kinetic Energy Speed
(A) Increases 2 m/s 3.2 m/s
(B) Increases Soold 2 m/s
(C) Decreases 3.2 m/s
(D) Decreases

Answers

Answer: (d)

Explanation:

Given

Mass of object [tex]m=2\ kg[/tex]

Speed of object [tex]u=5\ m/s[/tex]

Mass of object at rest [tex]M=3\ kg[/tex]

Suppose after collision, speed is v

conserving momentum

[tex]\Rightarrow mu+0=(m+M)v\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{2\times 5}{2+3}\\\\\Rightarrow v=2\ m/s[/tex]

Initial kinetic energy

[tex]k_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 5^2\\\\k_1=25\ J[/tex]

Final kinetic energy

[tex]k_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (2+3)\times 2^2\\\\k_2=10\ J[/tex]

So, it is clear there is decrease in kinetic energy . Thus, energy decreases and velocity becomes 2 m/s.
