Answer:
(a) Vf = 128 ft/s
(b) K.E = 122.8 Btu
Explanation:
(a)
In order to find the velocity of the object just before striking the surface of earth or the final velocity, we use 3rd equation of motion:
2gh = Vf² - Vi²
where,
g = 32.2 ft/s²
h = height = 253 ft
Vf = Final Velocity = ?
Vi = Initial Velocity = 10 ft/s
Therefore,
(2)(32.2 ft/s²)(253 ft) = Vf² - (10 ft/s)²
16293.2 ft²/s² + 100 ft²/s² = Vf²
Vf = √(16393.2 ft²/s²)
<u>Vf = 128 ft/s</u>
<u></u>
(b)
The kinetic energy of the object before it hits the surface of earth is given by:
K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²
where,
m = mass of object = 375 lb
K.E = Kinetic energy of object before it strikes the surface of earth = ?
Therefore,
K.E = (0.5)(375 lb)(128 ft/s)²
K.E = 3073725 lb.ft²/s²
Now, converting this to Btu:
K.E = (3073725 lb.ft²/s²)(1 Btu/25037 lb.ft²/s²)
<u>K.E = 122.8 Btu</u>
The rays of the electromagnetic spectrum from shortest to longest wavelength are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, optical rays, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma-rays.
EDIT: He has these backwards, the shortest wavelength is created by Gamma-Rays and the longest is Radiowaves.
<span> Remember- high energy = short wavelength. </span>
Answer:
Volcanic eruptions cool down the planet
Explanation:
Volcanic eruptions actually cool the planet because the particles ejected from volcanoes shade incoming solar radiation. ... The small ash and aerosol particles decrease the amount of sunlight reaching the surface of the Earth and lower average global temperatures.
Hope this helps!!! :D
