A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds?

2 answers:

5 0

Initial velocity = 20m/s
Accelerations = 3m/s^2
Time taken = 5s

Using second equation of motion
ut+(1/2)at^2

Where, s is the distance covered by the body
u is initial velocity
a is acceleration and t is time taken by that body

= (20)(5)+(1/2)(3)(5)^2
=100 + 37.5
= 137.5

So, the total distance covered by the body in next 5s would be 137.5m

An office window has dimensions 3.1 m by 2.1 m. As a result of the passage of a storm, the outside air pressure drops to 0.954 a

Virty [35]

Answer:

Net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Dimension of the office window.

Length of the window = $3.1$ m

Width of the window = $2.1$ m

Area of the window = $(3.1\times 2.1) = 6.51\ m^2$

Difference in air pressure = Inside pressure - Outside pressure

= $(1.0-0.954)$ atm = $0.046$ atm

Conversion of the pressure in its SI unit.

⇒ $1$ atm = $101325$ Pa

⇒ $0.046$ atm = $0.046\times 101325 =4660.95$ Pa

We have to find the net force.

We know,

⇒ Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ $Pressure=\frac{Force }{Area}$

⇒ $Force =Pressure\times Area$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $Force =4660.95\times 6.51$

⇒ $Force=30342.78$ Newton (N)

So,

The net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

20 cubic inches of a gas with an absolute pressure of 5 psi is compressed until its pressure reaches 10 psi. What's the new volu

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

B. $V_{f}= 10\,cubic\,inches$

Explanation:

Assuming we are dealing with a perfect gas, we should use the perfect gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

With T the temperature, V the volume, P the pressure, R the perfect gas constant and n the number of mol, we are going to use the subscripts i for the initial state when the gas has 20 cubic inches of volume and absolute pressure of 5 psi, and final state when the gas reaches 10 psi, so we have two equations:

$P_{i}V_{i}=n_{i}RT_{i}$ (1)

$P_{f}V_{f}=n_{f}RT_{f}$ (2)

Assuming the temperature and the number of moles remain constant (number of moles remain constant if we don't have a leak of gas) we should equate equations (1) and (2) because $T_{i}=T_{f}$ , $n_{i}=n_{f}$ and R is an universal constant:

$P_{i}V_{i}= P_{f}V_{f}$ , solving for $V_{f}$

$V_{f} =\frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{P_{f}} =\frac{(5)(20)}{10}$

$V_{f}= 10 cubic\,inches$

Which of the following best describes an action-reaction pair? A. The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon. B.

Papessa [141]

An action-reaction pair would be a pair in which one of the elements exerts a force on the other element (action), and then the other element would respond to this force by exerting another force in the opposite direction (reaction).

From the given choices, we will see that:
For choice A, the moon exerts a force on the earth by pulling it (action) and the earth responds to this force by pulling the moon (reaction in opposite direction of the action).

Therefore, the correct choice would be:
A. <span>The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon.</span>
