Answer:

a = 15.1 g

Explanation:

The relation between mass and acceleration is given by :

m\propto \dfrac{1}{a}

If a₁ = 0.80g, m₁ = 1510 kg, m₂ = 80 kg, we need to find a₂

So,

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{a_1m_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{0.8g\times 1510}{80}\\\\a_2=15.1g

So, the car's acceleration would be 15.1 g.

What frequency is received by a person watching an oncoming ambulance moving at 110 km/h and emitting a steady 800-Hz sound from
Strike441 [17]

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The frequency of sound perceive by observer changes from source emitting the sound. The frequency received by observer f_{obs} is more than the frequency emitted by the source. The expression to find the frequency received by the person is,

f_{obs} = f_s (\frac{v_w}{v_w-v_s})

f_s= Frequency of the source

v_w= Speed of sound

v_s= Speed of source

The velocity of the ambulance is

v_s = 119km/h (\frac{1000m}{1km})(\frac{1h}{3600s})

v_s = 30.55m/s

Replacing at the expression to frequency of observer we have,

f_{obs} = 800Hz(\frac{345m/s}{345m/s-30.55m/s})

f_{obs} = 878Hz

Therefore the frequency receive by observer is 878Hz

A storage tank holds methane at 120 K, with a quality of 25 %, and it warms up by 5°C per hour due to a failure in the refrigera
lord [1]

One of the fundamental pillars to solve this problem is the use of thermodynamic tables to be able to find the values of the specific volume of saturated liquid and evaporation. We will be guided by the table B.7.1 'Saturated Methane' from which we will obtain the properties of this gas at the given temperature. Later considering the isobaric process we will calculate with that volume the properties in state two. Finally we will calculate the times through the differences of the temperatures and reasons of change of heat.

Table B.7.1: Saturated Methane

T_1 = 120K

p_1 = 191.6kPa

v_f = 0.002439m^3/kg

v_{fg} = 0.30367 m^3/kg

Calculate the specific volume of the methane at state 1

v_1 = v_f+x_1v_{fg}

v_1 = 0.002439+ (0.25)(0.30367)

v_1 = 0.0783m^3/kg

Assume the tank is rigid, specific volume remains constant

v_2 = v_1

v_2 = 0.0783m^3/kg

Now from the same table we can obtain the properties,

At v_g = 0.0783m^3/kg

T_2 = 145K

p_2 = 823.7kPa

We can calculate the time taken for the methane to become a single phase

t = \frac{T_2-T_1}{\dot{T}}

Here

T_1 = Initial temperature of Methane

\dot{T} = Warming rate

Replacing

t = \frac{(145-273)-(120-273)}{5}

t = \frac{25}{5}

t = 5hr

Therefore the time taken for the methane to become a single phase is 5hr

If the mass of one of two particles is doubled and the distance between them is doubled, the force of attraction between the two
andre [41]
The force of attraction between the two particles will remain the same, because when mass is doubled, force of attraction is doubled. However, when distance between their centers is doubled, then force of  attraction is halved. As such double and half cancel out each other and force of attraction remains the same.

You are moving at a speed 2/3 c toward randy when randy shines a light toward you. at what speed do you see the light approachin
yarga [219]
I see the light moving exactly at speed equal to c.

In fact, the second postulate of special relativity states that:
"The speed of light in free space has the same value c<span> in all inertial frames of reference."
</span>
The problem says that I am moving at speed 2/3 c, so my motion is a uniform motion (constant speed). This means I am in an inertial frame of reference, so the speed of light in this frame must be equal to c.

What's your normal body temperature? it may not be 98.6°f, the oft-quoted average that was determined in the nineteenth century.
harkovskaia [24]

(98.6 - 98.2)ºF = .4ºF

.4ºF* 5ºC/9ºF = 0.222 ºC
