That's good !  I never heard of that before.  (Maybe because
I've never been stung by an ant.)

When an ant bites or stings, it injects a tiny amount of 'formic acid'
into your skin.  Soon, the formic acid itches, burns, and stings, and
after a while, a little piece of skin dies and falls off.  Some people
are seriously allergic to it, and it can make them really sick.

'Acids' and 'bases' are opposites, and one can neutralize (cancel out)
the other.  Tony is putting a weak 'base' on the sting, to neutralize the
formic acid that the ant left him as a little gift.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

D. the amount of chemical energy equals the amount of heat and light energy.

Explanation:

Given that the first law of thermodynamics affirmed that energy is neither created nor destroyed however, it can be transformed from one form to another. In other words, while, during the transformation of energy, no energy is lost, the input energy is also equal to output energy.

Hence, the chemical energy stored in the log is EQUAL to the heat and light energy produced by burning.

A small cylinder rests on a circular turntable that is rotating clockwise at a constant speed. Which set of vectors gives the di
I am Lyosha [343]

The question is missing the diagram. Also, the choices must have pictorial representation. So, I have attached the missing diagram and the pictorial representation of the vectors.

Answer:

The correct representation is attached below. Force and acceleration will be towards the center of rotation while the velocity will be along the tangent to the circular motion. <u>Option (D).</u>

Explanation:

From the figure, we can conclude the following points:

1. The cylinder is under a uniform circular motion as the circular table is moving at constant speed.

2. For a circular motion, velocity acts along the tangent to the circular path.

3. For a circular motion, centripetal force acts on the body that causes it move around a circular path.

4 The direction of the centripetal force is radially inward towards the center of rotation.

5. The centripetal force causes a centripetal acceleration acting on the body.

6. From Newton's second law, the net acceleration of a body is in the same direction as that of the net force acting on it. So, centripetal acceleration also acts in the radially inward direction.

Therefore, from the above conclusions, it is clear that velocity will act in the horizontal direction at the given instance of time and force and acceleration will act vertically down for the given instance.

This is shown in the picture below. The option (D).

A 17 g audio compact disk has a diameter of 12 cm. The disk spins under a laser that reads encoded data. The first track to be r
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

0.00066518 Nm

Explanation:

v = Velocity = 1.2 m/s

r = Distance to head = 2.3 cm

\omega_f = Final angular velocity

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity = 0

\alpha = Angular acceleration

t = Time taken = 2.4 s

Angular speed is given by

\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{1.2}{0.023}\\\Rightarrow \omega=52.17391\ rad/s

From equation of rotational motion

\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{52.17391-0}{2.4}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=21.73912\ rad/s^2

Torque

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=\dfrac{1}{2}mR^2\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=\dfrac{1}{2}0.017\times 0.06^2\times 21.73912\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.00066518\ Nm

The torque of the motor is 0.00066518 Nm

A battleship launches a shell horizontally at 100 m/s from the ship’s deck that’s 50 m above the water. The shell is intended to
Annette [7]

Answer:

The shell will land 10.18m away from the buoy.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first do a sketch of what the problem looks like (see attached picture).

Now, there are two cases, one with the tailwind and another with the tailwind. In both cases the shell would have the same vertical initial velocity and acceleration, therefore the shell would hit the water in the same amount of time. So we need to first find the time it takes the shell to hit the water.

In order to do so we can use the following equation:

y_{f}=y_{0}+V_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

now, we know that the final height and the initial velocity are to be zero, so we can simplify the equation like this:

0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

and solve for t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2y_0}{a}}

now we can substitute the values:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2(50m)}{-9.81m/t^2}}

t=3.19s

Since it takes 3.19s for the shell to hit the water, that's the amount of time it spends flying horizontally.

So we can consider the shell to move at a constant speed if there was no tailwind, so we can find the  distance from the ship to point A to be:

x_{A}=V_{x}t

x_{A}=(100m/s)(3.19)

x_{A}=319m

We can now find the distance between the ship to point B, which is the point the ball falls due to the tailwind. Since the movement will be accelerated in this scenario, we can find the distance by using the following formula:

x_{f}=V_{x0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{x}t^{2}

So we can substitute the given values:

x_{f}=(100m/s)(3.19s)+\frac{1}{2}(2m/s^{2})(3.19s)^{2}

Which yields:

x_{f}=329.18m

so now we can use the A and B points to find by how far the shell missed the buoy:

Distance=329.18m-319m=10.18m

So the shell missed the buoy by 10.18m.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.
