how wood helps in home insulation plz answer fast
plz answwweeeeeeerrrrrrr

Answers

Wood is a poor conductor and therefore a good insulator keeping heat inside

Wood is a natural insulator due to air pockets within its cellular structure, which means that it is 15 times better than masonry, 400 times better than steel, and 1,770 times better than aluminum. In addition, lightweight wood framing methods allow easy installation of additional fibre or foil insulation. i hope this is better

10). Three - fourth of the volume of a block which is floating in water extends above the surface
of the water. What is the density of the block?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Fill the graduated cylinder partially with water to a level where you can submerge the object and drop the sinker weight into the water. If you don't have a graduated cylinder to fit your object, put a cylinder in a basin, fill it to the top with water and measure the overflow into the basin. Your answer will be less accurate because of the number of times the water has been moved. Note the amount of displacement in milliliters (ml) caused by the sinker and string.

Measure the mass of your object (say a cork) on a balance scale in grams (g). Be sure the object is dry when it is measured. Record its weight. Attach the sinker with the string to the object. If you use a staple or pin, be sure to include that when you measure the displacement of the sinker in step one.

A stone is dropped from a tower of height 3600cm.Find the velocity by which it strike the ground.Also,find the time taken to reach the ground.​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Here h=36m, a=g=10m/s, u=0

Use s=ut+(1/2)at^2

36=0*t+(10t^2)/2

time=2.68 sec

As from the formula of final velovity, v=(2gh)^1/2

v=(2*10*36)^1/2

v=(720)^1/2

v=26.83………This is the final velocity

Answer:

Explanation:

s = vit + 1/2 gt*2

36 = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8 x t*2

t*2 = 7.34

t = 2.7sec

now,

2gs = vf*2 - vi*2

2 x 9.8 x 36 = vf*2 - 0

vf*2 = 705.6

vf = 26.5m/s

A radioactive isotope has a half-life of 2 hours. If a sample of the element contains 600,000 radioactive nuclei at 12 noon, how many radioactive nuclei would be left at 6 pm?

Answers

Answer: There will be 75258 nuclei left at 6 pm.

Explanation:

a) half-life of the radioactive substance:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

[tex]t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.69}{k}[/tex]

[tex]k=\frac{0.69}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{2hours}=0.346hours^{-1}[/tex]

b) Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

[tex]A=A_0e^{-kt}[/tex]

where,

k = rate constant  

t = time for decomposition = 6 hours ( from 12 noon to 6 pm)

A = activity at time t = ?

[tex]A_0[/tex] = initial activity  = 600, 000

[tex]A=600000\times e^{-0.346\times 6}[/tex]

[tex]A=75258[/tex]

Thus there will be 75258 nuclei left at 6 pm.

Find the average velocity if the takeoff velocity of an airplane on a runway is 300 km/hr with an acceleration of 1 m/s2 . A) 30 sec B) 41.7 sec C) 72.2 sec D) 83.33 sec

Answers

Answer:

83.33s

Explanation:

velocity=300km/hr ,acceleration =1m/s2

But before we can make this calculation,we have to make sure that both the acceleration and velocity are in the same units.So I decided to Chang the velocity to m/s.

Converting 300km/hr into m/s;

Changing 300km into m=300000m

Changing 1hr into secs=3600sec

Velocity in m/s=83.33m/s

But Time =velocity/acceleration

=83.33/1

=83.33sec

You have to decide what you want.  Your question says "Find the average velocity", but the choices you listed are all times, not velocities.

(300 km/hr) x (1 hr / 3600 sec) = 83.33 meters/sec

-- If the airplane starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 1 m/s², it'll take 83.33 seconds to reach takeoff speed.

-- If it starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to 83.33 m/s, then its average speed is 41.67 m/s no matter what its acceleration may be.

acts on the egg, and the amplitude of the motion decreases to 0.100 m in 5.00 s. Calculate the magnitude of the damping constant b.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer will be "0.022 kg/s".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial amplitude,

A₁ = 0.3 m

Final amplitude,

A₂ = 0.1 m

Mass of a egg,

m = 50.0 g i.e., 0.050 kg

Time,

t = 5 sec

As we know,

⇒  [tex]A_{2}=A_{1}e^{(-\frac{b}{2m})t}[/tex]

So that, the damping constant will be:

⇒  [tex]b=\frac{2m}{t} log \frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}[/tex]

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  [tex]b=\frac{2\times 0.050}{5}log \frac{0.3}{0.1}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=\frac{0.1}{5} log \frac{0.3}{0.1}[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=0.02 \ log 3[/tex]

⇒     [tex]=0.0219 \ kg/sec \ or \ 0.022 \ kg/s[/tex]

A transformer has 500 turns of the primary winding and 10 turns of the secondary winding. a) Determine the secondary voltage if the secondary circuit is open and the primary voltage is 120 V

Answers

Answer:

First we use the fact that the ratio of the voltage on the secondary and on the primary will be the same as the ratio of the number of turns of both coils,

u=u^2/U^1 = N^2/N^1

we evaluate the unkown secondary voltage

u^ 2=N^2/N^1 u1

We substitute the given values -

u^2= 10/500 * 120v = 2.4v

Hence, the answer is 2.4v.

If you double the amplitude of a box on a spring, how would that affect the acceleration at maximum displacement?

The acceleration would double.

The acceleration would remain the same.

The acceleration would triple.

The acceleration would be cut in 1/2.

Answers

Answer:

  The acceleration would double

Explanation:

Assuming the same box and spring, the maximum acceleration is proportional to amplitude. When the amplitude doubles, the acceleration would double.

quick question plz.........If force acting on a body of mass 40kg is doubled. By how much will be the acceleration change?

A. By a factor of 2

B. By a factor of 3

C. By a factor of 4

D. remains the same

Answers

Answer:

if i'm not mistaken the answer is A

The new acceleration will be increase by the factor of 2. Hence, option (A) is correct.

Given data:

The mass of body is, m = 40 kg.

We can use the Newton's second law to obtain the result of given problem. As per the Newton's second law, "The force applied by the given object is equal to the product of mass of object and the magnitude of acceleration of object". Then the expression is,

F = ma

a = F/m .....................................................................(1)

Here,

F is the force.

m is the mass.

a is the acceleration.

if the force acting in the mass of body of 40 kg is doubled. Then new acceleration will be,

F' = ma'

(2F) = ma'

2(F/m) = a'

From equation (1) we get,

a' = 2a

Thus, we can conclude that the new acceleration will be increase by the factor of 2. Hence, option (A) is correct.

The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring and subject to the damping effect of friction is given by y(t) = 2e−t cos 4t, where y is the displacement (in centimeters) and t is the time (in seconds). Find the displacement when t = 0, t = 1 4 , and t = 1 2 . (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Answers

Note that the correct times are t = 0, t = 1/4, t = 1/2. You can tell from the spaces between the two digits. i.e 1&4 and 1&2

Answer:

y(0) = 2.00 cm

y(1/4) = 1.56 cm

y(1/2) = 1.21 cm

Explanation:

This is a very simple exercise, the displacement of the oscillating weight from equilibrium has already been modeled by the equation:

[tex]y(t) = 2e^{-t} cos 4t[/tex]

Where y = displacement ( in cm)

and t = time (in seconds)

The task is to find the displacement when t = 0, 1/4 and 1/2

When t = 0 s

[tex]y(0) = 2e^{0} cos 4(0)\\y(0) = 2* 1*1\\y(0) = 2.00 cm[/tex]

When t = 1/4 s

[tex]y(1/4) = 2e^{-1/4} cos 4(1/4)\\y(14) = 2e^{-1/4} cos (1)\\y(1/4) = 1.56 cm[/tex]

When t = 1/2

[tex]y(1/2) = 2e^{-1/2} cos 4(1/2)\\y(14) = 2e^{-1/2} cos (2)\\y(1/2) = 1.21 cm[/tex]

A schooterist move along a circular path for radius 0.2km for 2 minutes
A ) what is the distance travelled
B) what is the velocity of the schooterist

Answers

Answer:

a 1.26 km b 10.5 m/s

Explanation:

A. Distance travelled by the schooterist

Since the schooterist travels in a circular path, the distance moved is the circumference of a circle, C with radius r = 0.2 km

C = 2πr

= 2π(0.2 km)

= 1.26 km

So, the distance travelled by the schooterist is 1.26 km

B. The velocity of the schooterist

The velocity of the schooterist v = distance travelled/time

distance travelled = 1.26 km = 1260 m

time = 2 minutes = 2 × 60 s = 120 s

So, V = 1260 m/120 s

= 10.5 m/s

So, the velocity of the schooterist is 10.5 m/s

Explanation:

A block of mass m is placed on a smooth wedge of inclination θ . The whole system is accelerated horizontally so that the block does not slip on the wedge. The force exerted by the wedge on the block has a magnitude: (A) mg tan θ (B) mg sin θ (C) mg cos θ (D) mg sec θ

Answers

Answer: mg/Cosθ

Explanation:

Taking horizontal acceleration of wedge as 'a'

FCosΘ = FsinΘ

F = mass(m) × acceleration(a) = ma

For horizontal resolution g = 0

Therefore,

Horizontal = Vertical

maCosΘ = mgSinΘ

aCosΘ = gSinΘ

a = gSinΘ/CosΘ

Recall from trigonometry :

SinΘ/Cosθ = tanΘ

Therefore,

a = gtanΘ

Normal force acing on the wedge:

mgCosΘ + maSinΘ - - - - (y)

Substitute a = gtanΘ into (y)

mgCosΘ + mgtanΘsinΘ

tanΘ = sinΘ/cosΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsinΘ/cosΘsinΘ

mgCosΘ + mgsin^2Θ/cosΘ

Factorizing

mg(Cosθ + sin^2Θ/cosΘ)

Taking the L. C. M

mg[(Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ) /Cosθ]

Recall: Cos^2θ + sin^2Θ = 1

mg[ 1 /Cosθ]

mg/Cosθ

if a room is closed for 2-4 hours then when we open the door we need a little bit of more energy than the actual energy and feel someone is pushing the door from the back side . what is the reason behind it ? which force is that?

Answers

Answer:

The reason is because the pressure of the air inside the room drops with time which makes opening the door to require an increased amount of force to make up for the reduced pressure inside the room

Explanation:

From the kinetic theory of gases we have the following relation;

[tex]v_{rms} = \sqrt{\dfrac{3 \cdot K \cdot T}{m} }[/tex]

[tex]p = \dfrac{n \cdot MW \cdot v^2_{rms} }{3 \cdot V}[/tex]

Where:

K = Boltzmann constant

T = Temperature

m = Mass

MW = Molecular weight

V = Volume

[tex]v_{rms}[/tex] = Root mean square velocity

Whereby the room door is closed, the kinetic energy of the air particles will be used up such that the average velocity of the particles will decrease, given that the volume of the room is constant, the pressure inside the room will drop below the original pressure outside the room such that the force on the door due to the outside pressure is larger than the force on the door from inside the room requiring a larger amount of force to overcome the resistance of the now higher outside pressure force.
