A football punter accelerates a .55 kg football
Ronch [10]

Answer:

17.6 N

Explanation:

The force exerted by the punter on the football is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the football:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum of the football

\Delta t=0.25 s is the time elapsed

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m = 0.55 kg is the mass of the football

u = 0 is the initial  velocity (the ball starts from rest)

v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity

Combining the two equations and substituting the values, we  find the force exerted on the ball:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.55)(8.0-0)}{0.25}=17.6 N

James Joule (after whom the unit of energy is named) claimed that the water at the bottom of Niagara Falls should be warmer than
Molodets [167]

Answer:

0.12 K

Explanation:

height, h = 51 m

let the mass of water is m.

Specific heat of water, c = 4190 J/kg K

According to the transformation of energy

Potential energy of water = thermal energy of water

m x g x h = m x c x ΔT

Where, ΔT is the rise in temperature

g x h =  c x ΔT

9.8 x 51 = 4190 x ΔT

ΔT = 0.12 K

Thus, the rise in temperature is 0.12 K.
