Answer 1

Answer:

No. Neither the USGS nor any other scientists have ever predicted a major earthquake. We do not know how, and we do not expect to know how any time in the foreseeable future. USGS scientists can only calculate the probability that a significant earthquake will occur in a specific area within a certain number of years.

The illustration in figure below shows a uniform metre rule weighing 30 N pivoted on a wedge placed under the 40 cm mark and carrying a weight of 70 N hanging 2 from the 10 cm mark. The ruler is balanced horizontally by a weight W hanging from the 100 cm mark. Calculate the value of the weight W.

Answers

Answer:

W = 30 N

Explanation:

Applying the summation of torques about the wedge for equilibrium, taking the clockwise direction as negative. Since the ruler is balanced horizontally about the wedge. Therefore, the summation of all torques acting about the wedge must be equal to zero.

[tex](70\ N)(40\ cm - 10\ cm)-(30\ N)(50\ cm-40\ cm)-(W)(100\ cm - 40\ cm) = 0\\W(60\ cm) = (70\ N)(30\ cm)-(30\ N)(10\ cm)\\\\W = \frac{1800\ N.cm}{60\ cm}[/tex]

W = 30 N

are players trying to minimize or maximize friction when playing volleyball?

Friction in Volleyball

Frication plays a huge role in every aspect of our lives; it can play a negative or positive role. In volleyball there are various types of friction that have positive influences on the way the game is played and there are others that play a negative role in the way the game is played.

Positive friction in volleyball.

In volleyball the aim of the game is to strike a ball into play that your opponent cannot return or finds it difficult to return. A friction force that makes this possible is the friction of the air on the ball, for example when a player hits a ball with topspin into play, the friction of the air on the ball makes it spin faster than it otherwise would. Topspin makes a ball harder to pick-up and pass to the setter.  

Another force that is present is the ball itself, if there was no friction it would be virtually impossible to pass set, or hit the ball, the ball would just slip through your arms or hands.

When jumping a player also uses the frictions of their feet on the floor to gain a higher jump to strike the ball at maximal height, if this didn't exist players would be slipping and sliding around all over the court.  

Negative friction in volleyball.

Friction also plays a negative part in the game of volleyball, when a player dives for a ball the friction of the court on their skin causes court burn or friction burn. Although the friction of the rubber soles of shoes on the court is a positive it can also be a negative, if there is too much friction players can become injured from the sudden stopping that the friction can cause. Some injuries that can result from this would be hyperextensions of the knees and or ankle injuries.

None. In volleyball rolling, sliding, and fluid friction all influence the movements in volleyball. Rolling friction does contribute to the volleyball. Fluid friction helps the ball fly through the air. The heavier the ball, the quicker it will accelerate. In volleyball the aim of the game is to strike a ball into play that your opponent cannot return or finds it difficult to return. A friction force that makes this possible is the friction of the air on the ball.

Building a space station, in which astronauts would live for a considerable time, is essential even if the space station project were to contribute no new knowledge about space or Earth that could not otherwise be obtained. For future missions to explore Mars, we will need the medical knowledge that the space station project will give us about the limits of human capacities to live in spacecraft for an extended time.
The argument makes the assumption that
(A) the exploration of Mars will be carried out by people traveling in spacecraft and not by robots alone
(B) the capacities of astronauts are typical of those of ordinary human beings

A 1500 kg car accelerats from 55.0 m/s to 90.0 m/s. Calculate the impulse experienced by the car​

Answers

Answer:

The impulse experienced by the car is 52,500 kg.m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 1500 kg

initial velocity of the car, u = 55 m/s

final velocity of the car, v = 90 m/s

The impulse experienced by the car is the change in linear momentum, calculated as follows;

J = ΔP = mv  - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 1500(90 - 55)

ΔP = 52,500 kg.m/s

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the car is 52,500 kg.m/s.

Explanation:

The force between lo and Jupiter is given by Newton's Gravitational Formula:

[tex]F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} \\[/tex]

where,

F = Force = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

m₁ = mass of lo = 8.932 x 10²² kg

m₂ = mass of Jupiter = 1.9 x 10²⁷ kg

r = distance between lo and Jupiter = 4.22 x 10⁸ m

Therefore,

Is this statement correct that all charged particles experience same force in uniform electric field

Answers

Answer:

No the statement is incorrect.

Explanation:

Mathematically, force F experience of a charge particle of magnitude q in an uniform electric field E is given as

F = E/q

In uniform electric field is where the intensity of electric field remains same throughout. However, from the above equation it is clear that force experience by the charge particle also depends upon the magnitude of charge particle as well. So, with change in charge particles the force experienced by it also changes.

The eye of the Atlantic giant squid has a diameter of 3.50 × 10^2 mm. If the eye
is viewed in a concave mirror with a radius of curvature equal to the diameter
of the eye and the eye is 0.800 × 10^3 mm from the mirror, how far is the image
from the mirror? What is the size of the image? Is the image real or virtual?​

Answers

Answer:

   q = 224 mm,   h ’= - 98 mm, real imagen

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the constructor equation

        [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]

       

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image respectively.

In a mirror the focal length is

        f = R / 2

indicate us radius of curvature is equal to the diameter of the eye

       R = 3,50  10² mm

       f = 3.50 10² /2 = 1.75 10² mm

they also say that the distance to the object is p = 0.800 10³ mm

        1 / q = 1 / f - 1 / p

        1 / q = 1 / 175 - 1 /800

        1 / q = 0.004464

         q = 224 mm

to calculate the size let's use the magnification ratio

          m = [tex]\frac{h'}{h} = - \frac{q}{p}[/tex]

          h '= [tex]- \frac{q}{p} \ h[/tex]

          h ’= - 224 350 / 800

          h ’= - 98 mm

in concave mirrors the image is real.

A schoolbus accelerates to 65 mph and enters the freeway. It travels for 2.3 hours at that speed while on the freeway. What's the distance travelled on the freeway?​

Answers

Answer:

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

Explanation:

The school bus travels on the freeway at constant speed. According to the statement, we need to calculate the distance travelled by the vehicle by means of the following formula:

[tex]x = v\cdot t[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Traveled distance, in miles.

[tex]v[/tex] - Speed, in miles per hour.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, in hours.

If we know that [tex]v = 65\,\frac{mi}{h}[/tex] and [tex]t = 2.3\,h[/tex], then the distance travelled by the school bus is:

[tex]x = v\cdot t[/tex]

[tex]x = \left(65\,\frac{mi}{h} \right)\cdot (2.3\,h)[/tex]

[tex]x = 149.5\,mi[/tex]

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

Describe the net transfer of thermal energy and any changes in temperature When a metal block at 300Ak is placed in water at 15°C

Answers

Answer:

Q_c = Q_abs

Explanation:

You are asked to describe the process when placing a hot block in cold water.

The first thing to do is put all the quantities in the same units

block temperature      T_bloque = T_h = 300 K = 300 -273 = 27ºC

water temperature     T_water = T_c = 15ºC

* initially the block cools down decreasing its temperature

* the water temperature increases

* the equilibrium is established when the thermal energy of the two bodies is equal, therefore they have the same temperatures T_f

* Conservation of energy requires that the energy released by the hot block is equal to the energy absorbed by the cold body (water)

transferred thermal energy Q_c = m_block ce_block (T_h-T_f)

absorbed thermal energy Q_abs = m_agua ce_agua (T_f - T_c)

* if we subtract the energy transferred and the absorbed gives zero, therefore the net energy transferred is zero

                               Q_c = Q_abs

Which statement describes an interacting force pair represented by the third law of motion? The force exerted by a cyclist equals the combined forces of friction and air resistance. A car exerts a force on a bug as they collide and the bug exerts an equal force on the car. Gravity exerts a downward force on a refrigerator and the normal force pushes up on the refrigerator. Two people pull on opposite ends of a rope, but the rope does not move because the people pull with equal forces.

Answers

Answer:

A car exerts a force on a bug as they collide and the bug exerts an equal force on the car.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move etc,

Furthermore, take for example, While driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a car (Action) and makes a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver (Reaction) i.e The firefly hit the car and the car hits the firefly.

Hence, the statement which best describes an interacting force pair represented by the third law of motion is, a car exerts a force on a bug as they collide and the bug exerts an equal force on the car.

The ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects in this case, the car and bug. The size of the force on the car equals the size of the force on the bug. These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion.

Explanation:

We know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. So, we can say that Rogan can run 8 miles per 60 minutes. Now, we can create an equation to solve for how many minutes it would take per mile.

8/60 = 1/x

x = 7.5

So, it would take Rogan approximately 7.5 minutes to travel 1 mile.
