1. Susie wondered if the height of a hole punched in the side of a quart-size milk carton would affect how far from the containe

r a liquid would spurt when the carton was full of the liquid. She used 4 identical cartons and punched the same size hole in each. The hole was placed at a different height on one side of each of the containers. The height of the holes varied in increments of 5 cm, ranging from 5-20 cm from the base of the carton. She put her finger over the holes and filled the cartons to a height of 25 cm with a liquid. When each carton was filled the proper level, she placed it in the sink and removed her finger. Susie measured how far away from the carton’s base the liquid had squirted when it hit the bottom of the sink.

Response:

An experiment is conducted to verify a hypothesis, which is an expected explanation of a natural occurrence grounded in earlier studies.

The design of the experiment needs to incorporate three variable types: the variable that can be adjusted (independent variable), the one that is measured (dependent variable), and the factor that remains unchanged throughout the trial (constant variable).

The sample is split into two groups: the experimental group that contains the key factor being examined and the control group that does not.

In this scenario,

1. Hypothesis: Liquid spurts when it falls from a height.

2. Independent Variable: Variations in the height of the hole.

3. Dependent Variable: The distance the liquid squirts.

4. Constant (at least one): The amount of liquid used is held steady.

5. Control: Four identical cartons, each with an equally sized hole.

6. Number of groups: Two (control and experimental).

7. Number of trials per group: Four.

Two blocks are attached to opposite ends of a massless rope that goes over a massless, frictionless, stationary pulley. One of t
Softa [913]

Answer:

1/7 kg

Explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram for enhanced clarity regarding the question.

One of the blocks weighs 1.0 kg and accelerates downward at 3/4g.

g denotes the acceleration due to gravity.

Let M represent the block with known mass, while 'm' signifies the mass of the other block and 'a' refers to the acceleration of body M.

Given M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g.

By applying Newton's second law; \sum fy = ma_y

For the body with mass m;

T - mg = ma... (1)

For the body with mass M;

Mg - T = Ma... (2)

Combining equations 1 and 2 gives;

+Mg -mg = ma + Ma

Ma-Mg = -mg-ma

M(a-g) = -m(a+g)

Substituting M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g into this equation leads to;

3/4 g-g = -m(3/4 g+g)

3/4 g-g = -m(7/4 g)

-g/4 = -m(7/4 g)

1/4 = 7m/4

Multiplying gives: 28m = 4

m = 1/7 kg

Hence, the mass of the other box is 1/7 kg

While dangling a hairdryer by its cord, you observe that the cord is vertical when the hairdryer isoff and, once it is turned on
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

The air exiting from the hairdryer is moving at a speed of 10 m/s.

Explanation:

The thrust generated by the hairdryer enables it to maintain an elevation angled at 5° from vertical; thus, we derive from the force diagram

(1).\: tan (5^o) = \dfrac{F_t}{Mg}

by substituting M =0.420kg, g = 9.8m/s^2 into the equation and resolving for F_t we find:

F_t = Mg\:tan(5^o)

F_t = (0.420kg)(9.8m/s^2)\:tan(5^o)

\boxed{F_t = 0.3601N.}

This thrust is linked to the speed of air ejection v through the equation

(2).\: F_t = v\dfrac{dM}{dt}

where dM/dt signifies the rate of air ejection, which is known to be

0.06m^3/2s  = 0.03m^3/s

and since 1m^3 = 1.2kg,

0.03m^3/s \rightarrow 0.036kg/s

\dfrac{dM}{dt}  = 0.036kg/s,

by inserting these values into equation (2), we obtain the value of F_t as:

0.3601N = 0.036v

resulting in

v= \dfrac{0.3601}{0.036}

\boxed{v =10m/s.}

which indicates the air velocity discharged from the hairdryer.

Two identical carts travel at the same speed toward each other, and then a collision occurs. The graphs show the momentum of eac
inna [987]

Explanation:

The term 'collision' refers to the interaction between two objects. There are two distinct types of collisions: elastic and inelastic.

In this scenario, two identical carts are heading towards each other at the same speed, resulting in a collision. In an inelastic collision, the momentum is conserved before and after the incident, but kinetic energy is lost.

After the event, both objects combine and move together at a single velocity.

The graph representing a perfectly inelastic collision is attached, illustrating that both carts move together at the same speed afterward.

A hiker walks 200m west and then walks 100m north. What is the magnitude and direction of her resulting displacement?
Maru [1056]

A hiker proceeds 200 m west and subsequently another 100 m north, resulting in a displacement of 223 m. The direction can be determined using the trigonometric function where sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse, yielding an angle of 26.6 degrees. Therefore, the total displacement is 223 m at an angle of 26.6 degrees north of west.

An electrical short cuts off all power to a submersible diving vehicle when it is a distance of 28 m below the surface of the oc
Ostrovityanka [942]

Answer:

F=126339.5N

Explanation:

To compute the force required to escape, a free-body diagram for the hatch must be drawn. We will equate the downward and upward forces, thus applying the following equation:

Fw=W+Fi+F

where

Fw=   force or weight exerted by the water column above the submarine.

To calculate Fw, we can use:

Fw=h. γ. A

h=height

γ= specific weight of seawater = 10074N / m ^ 3

A=Area

Fw=28x10074x0.7=197467N

w represents the hatch weight = 200N

Fi denotes the internal pressure force in the submarine, which is 1 atm = 101325Pa. We can calculate this force using:

Fi=PA=101325x0.7=70927.5N

Finally, the force needed to open the hatch is determined by the original equation:

Fw=W+Fi+F

F=Fw-W+Fi

F=197467N-200N-70927.5N

F=126339.5N
