Answer:

C. a few days

Explanation:

The evidence that we will have to investigate is the gunshot residue on the body of the suspect. When a person fires a gun there will be a deposition of material from the components of the chemicals present in the gun. This deposit is called gunshot residue and consists of particles of the propellant or explosive primer.

Experimentation has shown that the period of time that is person will test possible for gunshot residue is 5.27 days.

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

The study of alternating electric current requires the solutions of equations of the form i equals Upper I Subscript max Baselin
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

i = Imax sin2πft

given i = 180 , Imax = 200 , f = 50  , t = ?

Put the give values in the equation above

180 = 200 sin 2πft

sin 2πft = .9

sin2π x 50t = .9

sin 360 x 50 t = sin ( 360n + 64 )

360 x 50 t = 360n + 64

360 x 50 t =  64 ,  ( putting n = 0 for least value of t )

18000 t = 64

t = 3.55 ms  .

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

Schach [20]
Velocity = (displacement) / (time)

Displacement = straight-line distance between start-point and end-point

If you stop at the same point you started from, then
your displacement for the trip is zero, and your average

Dylan has two cubes of iron. The larger cube has twice the mass of the smaller cube. He measures the smaller cube. Its mass is 2
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The volume of the larger cube is 5.08 g/cm³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of smaller cube = 20 g

Density of smaller cube \rho= 7.87 g/cm^2

Dylan has two cubes of iron.

The larger cube has twice the mass of the smaller cube.

M_{l}=2m_{s}

Density is same for both cubes because both cubes are same material.

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}

Where, V = volume

m = mass

\rho=density

We need to calculate the volume of smaller mass

The volume of smaller mass

V_{s}=\dfrac{m_{s}}{\rho_{s}}

V_{s}=\dfrac{20}{7.87}

V_{s}=2.54\ cm^3

Now, We need to calculate the volume of large cube

V_{l}=\dfrac{m_{l}}{\rho_{l}}

V_{l}=\dfrac{2\times20}{7.87}

V_{l}=5.08\ g/cm^3

Hence, The volume of the larger cube is 5.08 g/cm³.
