A race car sits on the starting line on a racetrack. when the race starts, the car's tires exert a force on the track. According to newton's third law of motion, what causes the car to accelerate forward?
A. the track surface exerts a force that is larger and in the same direction as the force exerted by th tires.
B. a normal force that is equal in a magnitude to gravity pushes up on the car
C. the force of friction between the car tires and the track pulls the car forward
D. the track exerts a force that is equal and in the opposite direction as the force exerted by the tires

Answers

Answer:

D. the track exerts a force that is equal and in the opposite direction as the force exerted by the tires

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This speaks of equality in magnitude of force applied but in an opposite direction to one another.

According to this reaction, a car's tires exert a force on the track, this means that in accordance to Newton's third law, the track must exert an equal but opposite force on the car's tires. This causes the car to accelerate forward.

3.7 kg of a saturated water vapor at 0.4 MPa is isothermally cooled until it is a saturated liquid. Calculate the amount of heat rejected during this process in MJ. (Report your answer in 3 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

7.894 MJ

Explanation:

Given that:

The mass of the saturated water vapor = 3.7 kg

The pressure of the saturated water vapor = 0.4 MPa

From saturated properties of steam tables when the pressure is at 0.4 Mpa

The enthalpy in (kJ/kg);

hf = 604.7 kJ/kg

hg = 2738.1 kJ/kg

The rejected heat during this process is:

Q = m(hg - hf)

Q = 3.7(2738.1 - 604.7) kJ/kg

Q = 3.7(2133.4) kJ/kg

Q = 7893.58 kJ/kg

Q = 7.894 MJ

how does the siphon work​

Answers

Answer:

A simple siphon raises water over a crest and discharges it at a lower level.It works coninueasly due to pull of gravity.

Explanation:

Siphons are tubes which draw fluid over the rim of a tank to a lower point. After an initial pressure change to initiate the flow, siphons operate continuously due to the pull of gravity.

Working:

A simple siphon raises water over a crest and discharges it at a lower level. As water flows through a siphon, energy due to pressure and elevation is either lost to pipe friction or converted to velocity energy.

28 Why is soft iron used for the core of an electromagnet?

А Soft iron easily becomes a permanent magnet.
B Soft iron is a good electrical conductor.
с Soft iron is a poor thermal conductor.
D Soft iron loses its magnetism when the current in the coil is switched off.​

Answers

Answer:

An electromagnet is a form of magnet that is made by the passage of electric current through a coil of wire. The core of an electromagnet increases the strength of the produced magnetic field

Soft iron is used as the core of an electromagnet because soft iron is a magnetic material and therefore it is permeable to and becomes magnetized by the magnetic field coming from the flowing current, thereby allowing more flux to pass through the core of the electromagnet, producing a magnetic field strength that is several times that of an air core electromagnet as the relative permeability (to magnetic flux, compared to vacuum) of soft iron is about 64 × 10³

However, once the current is switched, the soft iron does not remain its magnetic, and therefore, the electromagnet becomes demagnetized, thereby being able to maintain its electromagnetic characteristics (being made magnetic by the flow of electric current)

7. A thin wire was wound 30 times closely over a boiling tube. The total length of the windings as measured was found to be 6.3mm. Determine the diameter of the wire .​

Answers

Answer:

Diameter of wire = 0.00021 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Number of windings = 30

Length of windings = 6.3 mm to meters = 0.0063 meters

To find the diameter of the wire, we would use this mathematical expression;

Length of windings = number of windings * diameter of wire

Substituting the values into the expression, we have;

0.0063 = 30 * diameter of wire

Diameter of wire = 0.0063/30

Diameter of wire = 0.00021 meters

An observer measures a 100 Hz Doppler shift as an ambulance goes by. At rest, the frequency of the ambulance's siren is 2,000 Hz. What is the speed of the ambulance?

Answers

The change in the frequency of the sound, due to the relative motion of the source of sound and the observer, is determined by the Doppler's Effect.

The speed of the ambulance (source) is "6517 m/s"

The equation of Doppler's Effect is given as follows:

[tex]f_o = \frac{v+v_o}{v+v_s}f_s[/tex]

where,

[tex]f_o\\[/tex] = frequency of sound measure by observer  = 100 Hz

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

[tex]v_o[/tex] = speed of observer = 0 m/s

[tex]v_s[/tex] = speed of ambulance (source) = ?

[tex]f_s[/tex] = actual frequency = 2000 Hz

Therefore, using the values, we get:

[tex]100\ Hz = \frac{343\ m/s + 0\ m/s}{343\ m/s + v_s}(2000\ Hz)\\\\(100\ Hz)(343\ m/s + v_s) = (343\ m/s)(2000\ Hz)\\\\v_s = \frac{686000\ Hz.m/s - 34300\ Hz.m/s}{100\ Hz}[/tex]

v_s = 6517 m/s

Q010) A well in which the water rises on its own to a level above its aquifer Group of answer choices is the result of pressure within a confined aquifer that creates a potentiometric surface. is called an ordinary well. always pushes water higher than the ground surface. cannot be used for commercial or public use, as the water is under too much pressure.

Answers

Answer:

The result of pressure within a confined aquifer that creates a potentiometric surface

Explanation:

There are conditions under the Earth's surface, where porous rock layers are tilted and also have a confining, less porous, rock layer about the their boundary, forming a confined aquifer. The existing pressure in the aquifer is therefore confined within the water and the porous  rock layer, such that drilling into the pressurized aquifer leads to the water rising under the pressure existing in the aquifer, to a potentiometric surface which is above the actual underground level of the aquifer

Which choice shows the correct sequence of features formed by continued wave erosion?

Answers

Answer:

Wave-cut cliff, sea arch, sea stacks

Explanation:

The effect of a wave erosion is made obvious by the structures formed by the wave action.

The high areas of land adjacent to the incoming wave develop the early features or the formation of wave action, which includes the wave-cut cliff

The continuous undercutting of the cliff by the wave results in the formation of the wave cut platform

The effect of the wave further on a cliff, results in the formation of a sea arch and finally a sea stack

Therefore, the correct sequence is the wave-cut cliff, sea arch, sea stacks

a ball was changed vertically upwards with kinetic energy 200 joule what will be the total energy and Midway​

Answers

Answer:

Part 1; The total energy = Constant = 200 J

Part 2; Midway, the potential energy = The kinetic energy = 100 J

Explanation:

Part 1

According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed but changed from one form to another

The total (mechanical) energy = Potential energy + Kinetic energy = Constant

The kinetic energy given to the ball changed vertically up = 200 J

Potential energy = Mass, m × Gravity, g × Height, h

Given that the mass m of the ball and the acceleration due to gravity, g, remain the same, we have;

Potential energy ∝ The height of the ball

The potential energy at ground level = 0 J (Height , h = 0)

∴ The total (mechanical) energy = 0 J + 200 J = 200 J

At the maximum height, the ball momentarily stops, and the kinetic energy = 0 J

Therefore;

The potential energy of the ball at the maximum height, [tex]h_{max}[/tex], [tex]P.E._{max}[/tex] = 200 J

∴  [tex]P.E._{max}[/tex] = m·g·[tex]h_{max}[/tex] = 200 J

Part 2

At midway we have, the height, h = ([tex]h_{max}[/tex])/2

Therefore, [tex]P.E._{Midway}[/tex] = (m·g·([tex]h_{max}[/tex]))/2 = ([tex]P.E._{max}[/tex])/2 = (200 J)/2 = 100 J

The potential energy midway = 100 J

The  remaining 200 J - 100 J = 100 J is the kinetic energy remaining in the ball

The kinetic energy midway = 100 J

Therefore, the total energy midway = 100 J + 100 J = 200 J

How Do Manometers Work? steps by steps

Answers

Explanation:

A manometer is a device that measures air pressure using a container with a "U"-shaped tube open at one or both ends. In a closed manometer, a sample of gas is introduced into one end, which is then capped. ... This pressure represents the positive or negative difference between the gas pressure and atmospheric pressure

Answer:

I hope this helps

In the manometer, one end connects to a gas-tight seal to test the pressure source.

2. In addition, the other end of the tube is left open to the atmosphere and it will be subjected to the pressure of approximately 1 atmosphere (atm).

3. Besides, the test pressure is greater than the pressure of 1 atm (atmosphere) the liquid in the column will be forced down by the pressure.

4. Furthermore, it will cause the liquid of the reference column to rise by an equal amount.
