Answer:

V = 6.3 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

m₁ = 2 kg

m₂ = 18 kg

m₃ = 9 kg

V₁ = 10 m/s

V₂ = 8 m/s

V₃ = 2 m/s

__________

V - ?

Let us write the momentum conservation law for an inelastic impact:

m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ = (m₁ +m₂ + m₃) ·V

Cart speed after interaction:

V = ( m₁·V₁ + m₂·V₂ + m₃·V₃ ) / (m₁ +m₂ + m₃)

V = (2·10 + 18·8 + 9·2) / ( 2 + 18 + 9) = 182 / 29 ≈  6.3 m/s

How much heat is required to convert 0.3 kilogram of ice at 0°C to water at the same temperature
Grace [21]

Answer:

100,200J of heat is required to convert 0.3kg of ice of 0°C to water at same temperature.

Explanation:

Heat = mass * lf

Latent heat of fusion (lf) of water is 334J/g

Heat = 300g * 334 J/g

Heat = 100,200J of heat

At the same instant that a 0.50-kg ball is dropped from 25 m above Earth, a second ball, with a mass of 0.25 kg, is thrown strai
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The center of mass of the two-ball system is 7.05 m above ground.

Explanation:

<u>Motion of 0.50 kg ball:</u>

Initial speed, u = 0 m/s

Time = 2 s

Acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

Initial height = 25 m

Substituting in equation s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 s = 0 x 2 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 2² = 19.62 m

Height above ground = 25 - 19.62 = 5.38 m

<u>Motion of 0.25 kg ball:</u>

Initial speed, u = 15 m/s

Time = 2 s

Acceleration = -9.81 m/s²

Substituting in equation s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 s = 15 x 2 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 2² = 10.38 m

Height above ground = 10.38 m

We have equation for center of gravity

          \bar{x}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

          m₁ = 0.50 kg

          x₁ = 5.38 m        

          m₂ = 0.25 kg

          x₂ = 10.38 m    

Substituting

         \bar{x}=\frac{0.50\times 5.38+0.25\times 10.38}{0.50+0.25}=7.05m

The center of mass of the two-ball system is 7.05 m above ground.

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is  T  = 168.44 \ K

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

   The rate of heat transferred is    P  = 13.1 \ W

     The surface area is  A = 1.55 \ m^2

      The emissivity of its surface is  e = 0.287

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

           H  =  A e \sigma  T^{4}

=>         T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }

where  \sigma is the Boltzmann constant with value  \sigma  = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot  m^{-2} \cdot  K^{-4}.

substituting value  

             T  =  \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }

            T  = 168.44 \ K

It is epistemically possible that a completed physics might include which of the following propositions? O Souls and other spiri
ohaa [14]

Answer:

option D.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option D.

At present the knowledge of physics does not includes the study related to souls , other spiritual substance.

Physics does not give the answers of question like God created universe , matter is unreal, etc.

So, there might will be possibility that in future complete physics will give the answer of all these questions i.e. correct answer is All of the above.
