Answer:

the liquid is pushed up the straw

Explanation:

Liquid is pushed up the straw . It is not sucked up . It is pushed up by force created by atmospheric pressure difference created. by sucking we create a pressure difference . This pressure difference creates force that pushes liquid in the mouth.

We can not drink liquid by sucking it through straw on moon , because moon has no atmosphere so pushing force is absent there.

Suppose a NASCAR race car rounds one end of the Martinsville Speedway. This end of the track is a turn with a radius of approxim
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration of the car is 17.4 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the track, r = 57 m

Speed of car, v = 31.5 m/s

We need to find the centripetal acceleration of the race car. The formula for the centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

a=\dfrac{(31.5\ m/s)^2}{57\ m}

a=17.4\ m/s^2

So, the centripetal acceleration of the race car is 17.4 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.

Two identical ladders are 3.0 m long and weigh 600 N each. They are connected by a hinge at the top and are held together by a h
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The tension in the rope is 281.60 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 3.0 m

Weight = 600 N

Distance = 1.0 m

Angle = 60°

Consider half of the ladder,

let tension be T, normal reaction force at ground be F, vertical reaction at top hinge be Y and horizontal reaction force be X.

Y+F=600....(I)

X=T.....(II)

On taking moment about base

X\times l\cos\theta+Y\times l\sin\theta-F\dfrac{l}{2}\sin\theta-T\times d=0

Put the value into the formula

X\times3\cos30+Y\times3\sin30-600\times1.5\sin30-T\times1=0

3\cos30 T-T=600\times1.5\sin30-Y \times3\sin30

1.598T=450-1.5(600-F)....(III)

We need to calculate the force for ladder

2F=600\trimes  2

F=600\ N

We need to calculate the tension in the rope

From equation (3)

1.598T=450-1.5(600-600)

1.598T=450

T=\dfrac{450}{1.598}

T=281.60\ N

Hence, The tension in the rope is 281.60 N.

MissTica
A perpetual motion machine is (as the name implies) a machine that moves perpetually; it never stops. Ever. So if you created one today and set it going, it would keep on going until the Big Freeze<span>. Calling that “a long time” is an understatement of epic proportions</span>

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

a fossil of a footprint, trail, burrow, or other trace of an animal rather than of the animal itself.

Explanation:

Trace fossils are the indirect evidence of life in the past, such as the footprints, tracks, burrows, borings, and feces left behind by animals, rather than the preserved remains of the actual animal body itself.

Fossil is the naturally preserved remains of plants and animals which somehow get trapped in amber, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA remnants.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

From the initial height h

Explanation:

When a material or substance is drop from a height h, it possesses potential energy, immediately it is dropped from that height, the potential energy is gradually converted to kinetic energy, it gets to a point where the potential energy equals the kinetic energy, as the material touches the ground, all potential energy has been converted to kinetic energy already
