A red water balloon is thrown horizontally from the top of a bridge. At the same instant, a yellow water balloon is dropped off

the bridge from the same height. Compare the time of fall for the two balloons. Assume air resistance is negligible.

The time of fall for the two balloons is equal.

Here the conditions given resembles a free fall. Since the air resistance is negligible, gravitational force is the only force acting on both the balloons which means the two balloons are falling in a vacuum. In a vacuum, if two objects of different mass are thrown from the same height, both objects will reach the ground at the same time.

Free fall is nothing but a condition in which an object falls solely under the influence of gravity.

Therefore, the time of fall for both yellow and red water balloons is equal no matter the weight where air resistance is negligible.

Explanation:

It is known that energy balance relation is as follows.

           \Delta E_{system} = E_{in} - E_{out}

Also,   W_{in} = \Delta U

so,       W_{in} = mC_{v}(T_{2} - T_{1})  

According to the ideal gas equation,

           T_{2} = T_{1} \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}

Putting the values into the above equation as follows.

             T_{2} = T_{1} \frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}

                         = (520R) \frac{40psia}{30psia}

                         = 693.3 R

Now, we will convert the temperature into degree Fahrenheit as follows.

            693.3 - 458.67

          = 234.63^{o}F

From table A-2E_{a}

 C_{p} = 0.240 Btu/lbm R  and   C_{v} = 0.171 Btu/lbm

Now, we will substitute the energy balance as follows.

            W_{in} = mC_{v}(T_{2} - T_{1})  

                         = 2 lbm \times 0.171 Btu/lbm R (693.3 - 520)

                         = 59.3 Btu

Thus, we can conclude that final temperature of air is 59.3 Btu.

If the average velocity of a duck is zero in a given time interval, what can you say about the displacement of the duck for that
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Also 0

Explanation:

Since average speed of an object is that object's displacement over a unit of time, when an average speed is 0, its displacement over a unit of time must also be 0. When an average speed is not 0, then its displacement over a unit of time is also not 0 for that interval.

A copper transmission cable 140 {\rm km} long and 12.5 {\rm cm} in diameter carries a current of 115 {\rm A}.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

1. V=22.0407\ V

2. Q=9126837\ J

Explanation:

Given:

length of copper cable, l=140\ km=1.4\times 10^5\ m

diameter of copper cable, d=12.5\ cm=0.125\ m

current through the copper wire, i=115\ A

We have the resistivity of copper, \rho=1.68\times10^{-8}\ \Omega.m

<u>We know that the resistance of a wire is given as:</u>

R=\rho.\frac{l}{a}

where:

a= cross sectional area of the wire

R=1.68\times 10^{-8}\times\frac{140000}{\pi.\frac{0.125^2}{4} }

R=0.1917\ \Omega

1.

<u>Now from the  Ohm's law:</u>

V=R.i

V=0.1917\times 115

V=22.0407\ V

2.

<u>From the Joules law the thermal energy generated as an effect of electrical energy is mathematically given as:</u>

<u />Q=i^2.R.t

where:

t= time duration for which the current flows

Q=115^2\times 0.1917\times 3600 (∵ we have 3600 seconds in 1 hour)

Q=9126837\ J

Is boiling a pot of water an example of Thermodynamics?
garri49 [273]

Answer: I think I have the answer to your problem!!

A pot of boiling water is a nice everyday example to explain internal energy, heat, and work. However, it's not a good choice for applying the first law of thermodynamics, because the boiling pot isn't a closed system.
