Answer:

D) accelerate but will not spin.

Explanation:

On the off chance that there is no air resistance the object will accelerate yet won't turn, this is on the grounds that without air resistance same force is applied on each bit of the object. Force on each segment is coordinated descending i.e parallel force. So there is no force to deliver spin movement in it.

It will accelerate because of gravity

Two objects are placed in thermal contact and are allowed to come to equilibrium in isolation. the heat capacity of object a is

Harman [31]

Given:
Ca = 3Cb (1)
where
Ca = heat capacity of object A
Cb = heat capacity f object B

Also,
Ta = 2Tb (2)
where
Ta = initial temperature of object A
Tb = initial temperature of object B.

Let
Tf = final equilibrium temperature of both objects,
Ma = mass of object A,
Mb = mass of object B.

Assuming that all heat exchange occurs exclusively between the two objects, then energy balance requires that
Ma*Ca*(Ta - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb) (3)

Substitute (1) and (2) into (3).
Ma*(3Cb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Mb*Cb*(Tf - Tb)
3(Ma/Mb)*(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb

Define k = Ma/Mb, the ratio f the masses.
Then
3k(2Tb - Tf) = Tf - Tb
Tf(1+3k) = Tb(1+6k)
Tf = [(1+6k)/(1+3k)]*Tb

Answer:
$T_{f} =( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k} )T_{b}= \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1+6k}{1+3k})T_{a}$
where
$k= \frac{M_{a}}{M_{b}}$

Round your answers to one decimal place. This parallel circuit has two resistors at 15 and 40 ohms. What is the total resistance

goldenfox [79]

-- With two resistors in parallel, the total effective resistance is
the reciprocal of (1/R₁ + 1/R₂).

1/R₁ + 1/R₂ = 1/15 + 1/40

= 8/120 + 3/120

= 11/120

So the total effective resistance is 120/11 = 10.9 ohms .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

= 12 / (120/11)

= (12 · 11) / 120

= 132/120 = 1.1 Amperes

You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car with a mass of 130 kg. One part of the track is a vertical

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Work done by friction along the motion is given as

$W_f = -5857.8 J$

Explanation:

As per work energy theorem we can say

Work done by all forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

so here car is moving from bottom to top

so here the change in kinetic energy is total work done on the car

so here we will have

$W_f + W_g = \frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2 - v_i^2)$

$W_f - mgH = \frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2 - v_i^2)$

now plug in all data in it

$W_f - (130)(9.81)(2\times 12) = \frac{1}{2}(130)(8^2 - 25^2)$

$W_f = 30607.2 - 36465$

$W_f = -5857.8 J$

Write difference between upstroke and downstroke of water pump

lakkis [162]

Explanation:

Upstroke is a mechanism which helps to raise the plunger and downstroke helps to help lower the plunger. On the up-stroke of the plunger, the lower valve opens and the upper valve is closed. ... Whereas, on the downstroke, the lower valve closes and the upper one opens.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: a) The Answer to the question is option a) None of it.

Explanation:

The reason is because according to the law of conservation of energy Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other. Therefore none of the kinetic energy was dissipated, rather it was transformed to another form of energy.
