Answer:

The advantage of the SI unit over CGS unit are:

S.I has broader base. It has seven base units and two supplementary units.
S.I is metric.
S.I is coherent.
S.I is rational, i.e. it gives one unit for one physical quantity .e g. for energy of any type i.e, mechanical or heat or electrical.There is only one unit Joule(J) but in M.K.S system unit for mechanical energy is joule.

Someone who wants to sell you a Superball claims that it will bounce to a height greater than the height from which it is droppe

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

Unless there are other external forces, this will never be true. Because according to energy conservation, potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy as the ball falls down (so it loses height and gain speed). And vice versa, kinetic to potential when it bounces back. So the potential energy after must be the same (or smaller if losing heat to external environment), so it can only get the the same height or less, but not more.

A 450g mass on a spring is oscillating at 1.2Hz. The totalenergy of the oscillation is 0.51J. What is the amplitude.

Volgvan

Answer:

A=0.199

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of spring=m=450 g= $=\frac{450}{1000}=0.45 kg$

Where 1 kg=1000 g

Frequency of oscillation= $\nu=1.2Hz$

Total energy of the oscillation=0.51 J

We have to find the amplitude of oscillations.

Energy of oscillator= $E=\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2A^2$

Where $\omega=2\pi\nu$ =Angular frequency

A=Amplitude

$\pi=\frac{22}{7}$

Using the formula

$0.51=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.45(2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2A^2$

$A^2=\frac{2\times 0.51}{0.45\times (2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 1.2)^2}=0.0398$

$A=\sqrt{0.0398}=0.199$

Hence, the amplitude of oscillation=A=0.199

Disturbed by speeding cars outside his workplace, Nobel laureate Arthur Holly Compton designed a speed bump (called the "Holly h

Bezzdna [24]

: 30.50 km/h = 30.50^3 m / 3600s = 8.47 m/s

At the top of the circle the centripetal force (mv²/R) comes from the car's weight (mg)

So, the net downward force from the car (Fn) = (weight - centripetal force) .. and by reaction this is the upward force provided by the road ..

Fn = mg - mv²/R
Fn = m(g - v²/R) .. .. 1800kg (9.80 - 8.47²/20.20) .. .. .. ►Fn = 11 247 N (upwards)
(b)
When the car's speed is such that all the weight is needed for the centripetal force .. then the net downward force (Fn), and the reaction from the road, becomes zero.

ie .. mg = mv²/R .. .. v² = Rg .. .. 20.20m x 9.80 = 198.0(m/s)²

►v = √198 = 14.0 m/s

belka [17]

Answer:

Informed Consent- The study didn't conform this ethical standard.

Debriefing- The study conforms this ethical standard.

Confidentiality- The study conforms this ethical standard.

Protection from harm- The study conforms this ethical standard.

Explanation:

Informed consent is described as a procedure whereby researchers tend to provide details about specific research they are going to conduct, the risk & benefits involved in the study, different alternatives involved in the procedure, etc.

Debriefing is described as a process that is being conducted in any of the different psychological research encompassing human participants after specific research is completed. The researcher tends to describe the details of the research to the participants.

Confidentiality is described as one of the different code of ethics followed by health workers or psychologists. While practicing confidentiality, a psychologist tends to promise his or her participants that he or she will keep everything a secret whatever is being discussed or shared between both of them.

Protection from harm determines that the psychologists conducting research follows the ethics in which he or she has to protect all the participants from any kind of harm.

While practicing S-turns, a consistently smaller half-circle is made on one side of the road than on the other, and this turn is

erica [24]

Answer:

The answer is "4-5-6 because the bank is growing too quickly in the beginning of its turn".

Explanation:

The S-turns is also known as the reference technique, in which the ground track of the aircraft on both sides of a defined ground-based straight-line distance represents 2 different but equivalent circles.

Throughout the S-turns, on either side of the road, a progressively smaller half-circle is formed, and this turn does not stop until the road or reference line is crossed during the early part of the turn, the twists increase too quickly.
