you throw a ball vertically so it leaves the ground withe velocity of 3.71m/s. what is its acceleration at this point

1 answer:

4 0

No matter what direction you throw it, or with what speed, its acceleration is immediately 9.8 m/s^2 downward as soon as you release it from your hand, and it doesn't change until the ball hits something.

Your roommate leaves a 120W fan running in your apartment.Over the course of an hour,how much thermal energy does the fan add to

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

$4.32\cdot 10^5 J$

Explanation:

Power is related to energy by the following relationship:

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

where

P is the power used

E is the energy used

t is the time elapsed

In this problem, we know that

- the power of the fan is P = 120 W

- the fan has been running for one hour, which corresponds to a time of

$t = 1 h \cdot (60 min/h)(60 s/min)=3600 s$

So we can re-arrange the previous equation to find E, the energy (in the form of thermal energy) released by the fan:

$E=Pt=(120 W)(3600 s)=4.32\cdot 10^5 J$

Would you expect to observe every supernova in our own Galaxy? Why or why not?

Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

Only few supernova are observed in our galaxy -

Type II supernovae ( i.e. the explosions of the massive stars ) occurred in the Milky Way, and they might be hidden by the intervening dust if they are located in the more distant parts of our Galaxy .

Type Ia supernovae , which need a white dwarf star in the binary star system , are brighter than the type II supernovae , but some of them could also happen in the older parts of Galaxy which are hidden due to the buildup of the dust and gas .
