Answer:

A

Explanation:

The general equation which represents an exothermic reaction is :

<u>reactants - energy → products</u>

<u />

This is because on undergoing an exothermic reaction, heat energy is released, which means that the initial energy of the reactants is lost (subtracted).

A 50kg meteorite moving at 1000 m/s strikes Earth. Assume the velocity is along the line joining Earth's center of mass and the

zysi [14]

As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg

The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s

When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.

We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.

The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -

$Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50* 10^{6}\ J$

$=25*10^6\ J$

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.

$Hence,\ the\ kinetic\ energy\ gained\ by\ earth\ is\ 25*10^6\ J$

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 31.0 m/s and lands 156.3 m from the base of a ramp how high is th

BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of ramp = 124.694 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using second equation of motion,

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

From the question,

u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0

substituting values

$156.3 = 31\times t + 0$

t = $\frac{156.3}{31 }$

= 5.042 s

Similary, for the case of landing

t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0

acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 $m/s^2$

Substituting in $h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (5.042)^2$

h = 124.694 m

So height of ramp = 124.694 m

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the top of a building 112 feet tall with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. The

nordsb [41]

Answer:

$t=6.96s$

Explanation:

From this exercise, our knowable variables are <u>hight and initial velocity </u>

$v_{oy}=96ft/s$

$y_{o}=112ft$

To find how much time does the <u>ball strike the ground</u>, we need to know that the final position of the ball is y=0ft

$y=y_{o}+v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$0=112ft+(96ft/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(32.2ft/s^{2})t^{2}$

Solving for t using quadratic formula

$t=\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$

$a=-\frac{1}{2} (32.2)\\b=96\\c=112$

$t=-0.999s$ or $t=6.96s$

<u><em>Since time can't be negative the answer is t=6.96s</em></u>

If no heat is lost to the surroundings, how much heat must be added to raise the temperature from 20.0 ∘C to 85.0 ∘C ?

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

$C_{water}$ = 4190 J/kg.K

$C_{Al}$ = 910 J/Kg. K

$m_{Al}$ = 1.50 kg

$m_{water}$ = 1.80 kg

$Q_{added} = Q_{Al} + Q_{water}$

$=m_{Al} C_{Al}$ ΔT + $m_{water} C_{water}$ ΔT

= (1.50)(910)(85.0-20)+(1.80)(4190)(85.0-20)

= 578,955 J

= 579 kJ
