How much more heat is transferred from the ocean to the atmosphere as latent heat rather than as sensible heat

1 answer:

5 0

The amount of heat transferred from the ocean to the atmosphere as latent heat than sensible heat will be 10 times as much.

Latent heat and sensible heat are defined as follows:

Latent heat: It is the heat that leaves/enters a system during a process where the temperature of the system stays constant.
Examples are phase changes where the latent heat from the system leaves (exothermic) or enters a system (endothermic).

Sensible heat: It is the heat that enters or exits a system when the temperature of the system is not constant. The entire heat flows through the two systems and in order to do so it requires a temperature difference between the systems.

Thus, the amount of heat transferred from the ocean to the atmosphere as latent heat than sensible heat will be 10 times as much.

The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

Acceleration = -g

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = u sin θ - g t

$t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

This is the time of flight.

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,

Initial velocity, u = u cos θ

Acceleration, a =0 m/s²

Time, $t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

$s=ucos\theta \times \frac{usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{2g}$
