After 8 s, both the balloon and the stone have upward velocity of
v = (1.25 m/s^2)*(8 s) = 10 m/s
Both the balloon and the stone would have traveled upward by a height of
h = (1/2)*(1.25 m/s^2)*(8 s)^2 = 40 m

When the stone is dropped, it will
(a) have an initial upward speed of  10 m/s,
(b) it will be 40 m above ground,
(c) the time for it to reach the ground is given by
    (10 m/s)t - (1/2)*(9.81 m/s^2)t^2 = -40
    4.9t^2 - 10t - 40 =0
    Use the quadratic formula to obtain t = 4.054 s
(d) it will travel a distance upward, s, given by
    0 = 10^2 - 2(9.8)s => s = 5.1 m
    The stone will attain a height of 45.1 m aboe ground.

Answer:
c. The stone will reach the ground in 4 s.

. What is the relationship between potential energy, kinetic energy, and speed as the skater moves down and up the U-shaped ramp
kykrilka [37]
Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest

Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest

THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.

An ordinary egg can be approximated as a 5.5-cm diameter sphere. The egg is initially at a uniform temperature of 8°C and is dro
kupik [55]

Answer:

a) Q_{in} = 13.742\,kW, b) \Delta S = 370.15\,\frac{kJ}{K}

Explanation:

a) The heat transfered to the egg is computed by the First Law of Thermodynamics:

Q_{in} +U_{sys,1} - U_{sys,2} = 0

Q_{in} = U_{sys,2} - U_{sys,1}

Q_{in} = \rho_{egg}\cdot \left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot r^{3}\right)\cdot c \cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})

Q_{in} = \left(1020\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\right)\cdot (0.025\,m)^{3}\cdot \left(3.32\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (70\,^{\textdegree}C - 8\,^{\textdegree}C)

Q_{in} = 13.742\,kW

b) The amount of entropy generation is determined by the Second Law of Thermodynamics:

\Delta S = \frac{Q_{in}}{T_{in}}

\Delta S = \frac{13.742\,kJ}{370.15\,K}

\Delta S = 370.15\,\frac{kJ}{K}

An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 52.0° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explode
sasho [114]

The x- and y-coordinates are 9142.57 m and -304.425 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the motion of the shell is in a plane (two dimensional space) and the acceleration is that due to gravity which is vertically downward, we resolve initial velocity of the shell v_{0} in horizontal and vertical directions. If the initial velocity of the shell is making angle with the horizontal, the horizontal component of initial velocity will be

                v_{x}=v_{0} \times \cos \theta

As the acceleration of the shell is vertical having no horizontal component, the shell may be considered to move horizontally with constant velocity of v_{x} and hence the horizontal distance covered (or the x coordinate of the shell with point of projection as origin) is given by

           v_{x}=v_{o} \times \cos \theta=300 \times \cos \left(52^{\circ}\right)=184.69 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

           v_{y}=v_{o} \times \sin \theta==300 \times \sin \left(52^{\circ}\right)=236.4 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

For motion with constant acceleration, we know

            s=s_{0}+v_{0} t+\left(\frac{(1)}{2}\right) a t^{2}

Along the horizontal, x-axis, we might write this as

            x=x_{0}+v_{x 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{x} t^{2}

Measuring distances relative to the firing point means

               x_{0}=0

we know that,

              a_{x}=0

or,

             v_{x}=v_{x 0}=\text { constant }

By applying the values, we get,

           x=0+(184.69 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times 0 \times(49.5)^{2}\right)=9142.57 \mathrm{m}

The acceleration of gravity is vertically downward and is g=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} , hence the vertical distance covered (or y coordinate of the shell) is given by the second equation of motion

           y=y_{0}+v_{y 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{y} t^{2}

we know, y_{0}=0 and a_{y}=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}, so,

          y=0+(236.4 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times(-9.8) \times(49.5)^{2}\right)

                 y = 11701.8 - 4.9(2450.25)= 11701.8 - 12006.225 = - 304.425 m
