What does it mean to say mass and weight are preportional to each other?

1 answer:

4 0

It means that if the mass of a mass is increased by some factor, and nothing else changes, then the weight of that mass increases by exactly the same factor.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: A

Explanation:

A pneumatic control system uses compressed air as a method of control for HVAC systems. ... Each senor responds to changes in temperature, humidity, and static pressure as examples, to provide feedback in a control loop to open or close the actuator to meet the control set point.

Azurite is a mineral that contains 55.1% of copper. How many meter of copper wire with diameter of 0.0113 in can be produced fro

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

1402.73 m

Explanation:

Mass of Azurite=3.25 lb

Percent of copper in AZurite mineral=55.1%

Diameter of copper wire,d=0.0113 in

Radius of copper wire= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.0113}{2}=0.00565 in=\frac{565}{100000}=\frac{565}{100}\times \frac{1}{1000}=5.65\times 10^{-3}in$

$\frac{1}{1000}=10^{-3}$

Density of copper= $\rho=8.96g/cm^3$

1 lb=454 g

3.25 lb= $3.25\times 454=1475.5 g$

Mass of Azurite= $1475.5 g$

Mass of copper= $\frac{55.1}{100}\times 1475.5=813 g$

Density= $\frac{Mass}{volume}$

Using the formula

$8.96=\frac{813}{volume\;of\;copper}$

Volume of copper wire= $\frac{813}{8.96}=90.7cm^3$

Radius of copper wire= $5.65\times 10^{-3}\times 2.54=14.35\times 10^{-3} cm$

1 in=2.54 cm

Volume of copper wire= $\pi r^2 h$

$\pi=3.14$

Using the formula

$90.7=3.14\times (14.35\times 10^{-3})^2\times h$

$h=\frac{90.7}{3.14\times (14.35\times 10^{-3})^2}$

$h=140273 cm$

1 m=100 cm

$h=\frac{140273}{100}=1402.73 m$

Hence, the length of copper wire required=1402.73 m

When t=0, v=0, d=0 When t=tf, v=41m/s, d=3.5m We have 2 formulas – the ones corresponding to uniformly accelerated linear movement: vf=a*t+vo d=(1/2)*a*t^2+vo*t Let’s put the data in the formulas: 41m/s=a*t+0=a*t 3.5m=(1/2)*a*t^2+0*t=1/2*a*t^2 You can use a variety of methods to find t and a. I will choose substitution. t=(41m/s)/a 3.5m=(1/2)*a*((41m/s)/a)^2=(1/2)*a*(41m/s)^2/a^2=(1/2)*(41m/s)^2/a a=(1/2)*(41m/s)^2/(3.5m)=(1/2)*41^2(m^2/s^2)/(3.5m) a=41^2(m/s^2)/( 2*3.5)=240m/s^2
