Which statement BEST explains why the specific heat of water is higher than the specific heat of most other substances? A) Due t

o its polarity and hydrogen bonding water can absorb heat without a significant temperature change. B) Due to the ionic bonding in liquid water, it takes more heat energy to reach boiling. C) Because water is a covalent compound, it takes a lot of energy to change its kinetic energy. D) Water has a higher density value than most substances and requires more energy to change the temperature.

A particle traveling in a circular path of radius 300 m has an instantaneous velocity of 30 m/s and its velocity is increasing a
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

5 m/s2

Explanation:

The total acceleration of the circular motion is made of 2 components: centripetal acceleration and linear acceleration of 4 m/s2. They are perpendicular to each other.

The centripetal acceleration is the ratio of instant velocity squared and the radius of the circle

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{30^2}{300} = \frac{900}{300} = 3 m/s^2

So the magnitude of the total acceleration is

a = \sqrt{a_c^2 + a_l^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5 m/s^2

Can anyone help me with 11 and 12 please
dexar [7]
The 1st one is basically B because it will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted on by an unbalanced force and the 2cd one is A because most of is transformed into thermos energy. hope this helps!
