A sled is on an icy (frictionless) slope that is 30° above the horizontal. When a 40-N force, parallel to the incline and direct

ed up the incline, is applied to the sled, the acceleration of the sled is 2.0 m/s 2, down the incline.. The mass of the sled is:

Answer: 5.8kg

Explanation:

F - mg sinΦ = ma

Given that

M=?

g= 9.8

Φ= 30

a= 2

F= 40 then

40 - 9.8 * m * sin 30 = 2 * m

40 = 2 * m + 9.8 * m * sin 30

40 = (2 + 9.8 * sin 30) m

m = 40 / (2 + 9.8 * 0.5)

m = 40 / (2 + 4.9)

m = 40 / 6.9

m = 5.797kg

m = 5.8kg

In the produce section of a supermarket, five pears are placed on a spring scale. The placement of the pears stretches the sprin
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The displacement of the spring due to weight is 0.043 m

Explanation:

Given :

Mass m = 2 Kg

Spring constant k = 450 \frac{N}{m}

According to the hooke's law,

  F = -kx

Where F = force, x = displacement

Here,

F = mg         ( g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )

F = 2 \times 9.8 = 19.6 N

Now for finding displacement,

  x = \frac{F}{k}

Here minus sign only represent the direction so we take magnitude of it.

  x = \frac{19.6}{450}

  x = 0.043 m

Therefore, the displacement of the spring due to weight is 0.043 m

During an investigation, a scientist heated 123.6 g of copper carbonate till it decomposed to form a black residue. The total ma
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

See below explanation

Explanation:

The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:

CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :

MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol

MM CuO = 79 g/mol

MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.

So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which  "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)

The local meteorologist claims that the temperature is going to steadily drop over the next 4 hours. If the temperature changes
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

-7 ºF each hour

Explanation:

The problem says that in a total amount of 4 hours the total temperature drop is 28 ºF. We are asked to obtain how many Fahrenheit degrees drop each hour. To obtain the temperature, we just need to divide the total drop temperature by the total amount of time.

T[F]= 28 F/4 hrs

The result is 7 ºF. The minus sign is simply written to depict a decrease in temperature.
