Why do automobiles rust faster in wet climates than in drier climates?

2 answers:

7 0

The water helps the car slide just a little bit if you drive in a wet climate but in a dry climate the car does all the work. for example when you slide across ice with sneakers. on a dry surface you cant slide, but an a icy surface you start but the ice does the rest.

Automobiles rust faster in wet climate because the chemical reaction between the metal and the iron, oxygen or water breaks down, or oxidizes, the metal causing the appearance of rust.

A body of mass m1 = 1.5 kg moving along a directed axis in the positive sense with a velocity

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

3.71 m/s in the negative direction

Explanation:

From collisions in momentum, we can establish the formula required here which is;

m1•u1 + m2•v2 = m1•v1 + m2•v2

Now, we are given;

m1 = 1.5 kg

m2 = 14 kg

u1 = 11 m/s

v1 = -1 m/s (negative due to the negative direction it is approaching)

u2 = -5 m/s (negative due to the negative direction it is moving)

Thus;

(1.5 × 11) + (14 × -5) = (1.5 × -1) + (14 × v2)

This gives;

16.5 - 70 = -1.5 + 14v2

Rearranging, we have;

16.5 + 1.5 - 70 = 14v2

-52 = 14v2

v2 = - 52/14

v2 = 3.71 m/s in the negative direction

A dockworker applies a constant horizontal force of 80.0 N to a block of ice on a smooth horizontal floor. The frictional force

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

(a) 91 kg (2 s.f.) (b) 22 m

Explanation:

Since it is stated that a constant horizontal force is applied to the block of ice, we know that the block of ice travels with a constant acceleration and but not with a constant velocity.

(a)

$s \ = \ ut \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2} at^{2} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{2(s \ - \ ut)}{t^{2}} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{2(11 \ - \ 0)}{5^{2}} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{22}{25} \\ \\ a \ = \ 0.88 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}}$

Subsequently,

$F \ = \ ma \\ \\ m \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{F}{a} \\ \\ m \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{80 \ \mathrm{kg \ m \ s^{-2}}}{0.88 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}}} \\ \\ m \ = \ 91 \mathrm{kg} \ \ \ \ \ \ (2 \ \mathrm{s.f.})$

*Note that the equations used above assume constant acceleration is being applied to the system. However, in the case of non-uniform motion, these equations will no longer be valid and in turn, calculus will be used to analyze such motions.

(b) To find the final velocity of the ice block at the end of the first 5 seconds,

$v \ = \ u \ + \ at \\ \\ v \ = \ 0 \ + \ (0.88 \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}})(5 \ \mathrm{s}) \\ \\ v \ = \ 4.4 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-1}}$

According to Newton's First Law which states objects will remain at rest

or in uniform motion (moving at constant velocity) unless acted upon by

an external force. Hence, the block of ice by the end of the first 5

seconds, experiences no acceleration (a = 0) but travels with a constant

velocity of 4.4 $m \ s^{-1}$ .

$s \ = \ ut \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\ \\ s \ = \ (4.4 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}})(5 \ \mathrm{s}) \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(0)(5^{2}) \\ \\ s \ = \ 22 \ \mathrm{m}$

Therefore, the ice block traveled 22 m in the next 5 seconds after the

worker stops pushing it.

2. What do you understand by balanced and unbalanced force

labwork [276]

Answer:

forces that are equal in size and opposite in direction. Balanced forces do not result in any change in motion. unbalanced. forces: forces applied to an object in opposite directions that are not equal in size. Unbalanced forces result in a change in motion.

Which jovian planet should have the most extreme seasonal changes? a. Saturn b. Neptune c. Jupiter d. Uranus

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

D). Uranus.

Explanation:

Jovian planets are described as the planets which are giant balls of gases and located farthest from the sun which primarily include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

As per the question, 'Uranus' is the jovian planet that would have the most extreme seasonal changes as its tilted axis leads each season to last for about 1/4 part of its 84 years orbit. The strong tilted axis encourages extreme changes in the season on Uranus. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
