As you make your way to work in Boston just after dawn, you observe that the bay's water level is surprisingly low. Considering this significantly low tide and the dark, clear sky from last night, the moon is currently in its waxing crescent phase. Among the eight lunar phases, the waxing crescent occurs after the new moon phase.

The lunar phases are a result of the moon's orbit positioned between the Earth and the Sun. The moon's surface reflects sunlight, which reaches Earth at varying angles, depending on the moon's orbit position. This creates the perception of the moon appearing to wax and wane.

Person X pushes twice as hard against a stationary brick wall as person Y. Which one of the following statements is correct?
Keith_Richards [3271]

D) Both perform no work

Explanation:

The work accomplished by a force is defined as:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F represents the applied force

d denotes the displacement

is the angle highlighted between the applied force and the displacement vector

\thetaFrom this formula, it is clear that work is only done when displacement occurs, meaning the object has to move.

In this instance, as the wall is unmoving, the displacement is zero: d = 0, thus no work is performed.

At a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.807 m/s2, the atmospheric pressure is 9.891 × 104 Pa. A barometer at th
serg [3582]

Answer:

8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

Explanation:

The measurement of pressure is indicated as p=\rho gh where p denotes the pressure, \rho signifies density, and h represents height

Given values include pressure p=9.891\times 10^4\ Pa, gravity's acceleration g=9.9870\ m/sec^2, and height =1.163 m

\rho =\frac{p}{gh}=\frac{9.891\times 10^4}{9.870\times 1.163}=8616.7468 \ kg/m^3

A large crate sits on the floor of a warehouse. Paul and Bob apply constant horizontal forces to the crate. The force applied by
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

W = -510.98 J

Explanation:

Force = 43 N, 61° SW

Displacement = 12 m, 22° NE

The work done is calculated using:

W = F*d*cos(A)

where A is the angle between the applied force and displacement.

The angle A between the force and displacement is determined as A = 61 + 90 + 22 = 172°

Hence, W = 43 * 12 * cos(172)

This results in W = -510.98 J

The negative result indicates that the work is done contrary to the direction of the force applied.

serg [3582]

Answer:

a_{acceleriation}=-4cm/s^{2}\\ or\\ a_{acceleriation}=-0.04m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Data provided

initial velocity v₀=20 cm/s at time t=3s

final velocity vf=0 at time t=8 s

Required

Average Acceleration for the interval from 3s to 8s

Solution

Acceleration can be defined as the first derivative of velocity concerning time

a_{acceleriation} =\frac{dv_{velocity}}{dt_{time}}\\a_{acceleriation} =\frac{v_{f}-v_{o} }{dt}\\ a_{acceleriation} =\frac{0-20cm/s }{8s-3s}\\ a_{acceleriation}=-4cm/s^{2}\\ or\\ a_{acceleriation}=-0.04m/s^{2}

What is the gauge pressure of the water right at the point p, where the needle meets the wider chamber of the syringe? neglect t
Yuliya22 [3333]

Details that are not provided: the problem figure is included.

We can address the exercise by applying Poiseuille's law. This law indicates that for a fluid flowing in a laminar manner within a confined pipe,

\Delta P = \frac{8 \mu L Q}{\pi r^4}

where:

\Delta P represents the pressure difference across the two ends

\mu denotes the viscosity of the fluid

L signifies the length of the pipe

Q=Av indicates the volumetric flow rate, where A=\pi r^2 is the cross-sectional area of the tube and v refers to the fluid's velocity

r stands for the pipe's radius.

This law can be utilized for the needle, allowing us to compute the pressure difference between point P and the needle's end. In this scenario, we have:

\mu=0.001 Pa/s is the dynamic viscosity of water at 20^{\circ}

L=4.0 cm=0.04 m

Q=Av=\pi r^2 v= \pi (1 \cdot 10^{-3}m)^2 \cdot 10 m/s =3.14 \cdot 10^{-5} m^3/s

and r=1 mm=0.001 m

Substituting these values into the formula yields:

\Delta P = 3200 Pa

This pressure difference specifies the value between point P and the needle's termination. As the end of the needle is under atmospheric pressure, the gauge pressure at point P, relative to atmospheric pressure, is exactly 3200 Pa.
