A student placed an ice cube on a table and observed it for five minutes. He noticed that the ice cube seemed to get smaller and

was now surrounded by a small puddle of water. Explain what happened to the ice cube. Be sure to tell what caused the ice cube to change and how the puddle of water formed. When will the temperature of the ice cube stabilize?

Answer:

the ice cube melted due to the absorption of heat from the surrounding of the ice, the has a heat capacity of zero so it turns it from its solid state to its liquid state which leads to the formation of the puddle

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

N=459.01N

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law:

N+F_y-W=0

The component of the force on the y-axis can be obtained through the Pythagorean Theorem. This is because the components are the cathetus of a right triangle and its hypotenuse is the magnitude of the force:

sin12^\circ=\frac{F_y}{F}\\F_y=Fsin12^\circ

Replacing and solving for N:

N=W-Fsin12^\circ\\N=485N-(125N)sin12^\circ\\N=459.01N

A sample of tendon 3.00 cm long and 4.00 mm in diameter is found to break under a minimum force of 128 N. If instead the sample
Hatshy [7]

Answer:128 N

Explanation:

Sample of 3 cm and 4 mm diameter found to break under a minimum force of 128 N .

If sample is 1.5 cm long with same cross-sectional area then minimum force required to break is also 128 N because the applied force is same for any length and diameter of tendon.

A rectangular block weighs 240 N. the area of the block in contact with the floor is 20 cm2.calculate the pressure on the floor(
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

12 N/cm²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted by the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) =.?

Weight and force has the same unit of measurement. Thus, we force applied is equivalent to the weight of the block. Thus,

Force (F) = Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) = 240 N

Finally, we shall determine the pressure on the floor as follow:

Force (F) = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F/A

P = 240 / 20

P = 12 N/cm²

Therefore, the pressure on the floor is 12 N/cm².

You slip a wrench over a bolt. Taking the origin at the bolt, the other end of the wrench is at x=18cm, y=5.5cm. You apply a for
mart [117]

Answer:

The torque on the wrench is 4.188 Nm

Explanation:

Let r = xi + yj where is the distance of the applied force to the origin.

Since x = 18 cm = 0.18 cm and y = 5.5 cm = 0.055 cm,

r = 0.18i + 0.055j

The applied force f = 88i - 23j

The torque τ = r × F

So, τ = r × F = (0.18i + 0.055j) × (88i - 23j) = 0.18i × 88i + 0.18i × -23j + 0.055j × 88i + 0.055j × -23j

= (0.18 × 88)i × i + (0.18 × -23)i × j + (0.055 × 88)j × i + (0.055 × -22)j × j  

= (0.18 × 88) × 0 + (0.18 × -23) × k + (0.055 × 88) × (-k) + (0.055 × -22) × 0   since i × i = 0, j × j = 0, i × j = k and j × i = -k

= 0 - 4.14k + 0.0484(-k) + 0

= -4.14k - 0.0484k

= -4.1884k Nm

≅ -4.188k Nm

So, the torque on the wrench is 4.188 Nm
