A mine car (mass=390 kg) rolls at a speed of 0.50 m/s on a horizontal track, as the drawing shows. A 250-kg chunk of coal has a
Nady [450]

Answer:

v=0.60 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m ₁= 390 kg ,u ₁= 0.5 m/s

m₂ = 250 kg ,u₂ = 0.76 m/s

As we know that if there is no any external force on the system the total linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Pi = Pf

m ₁u ₁+m₂u₂ = (m₂ + m ₁ ) v

Now putting the values in the above equation

390 x 0.5 + 250 x 0.76 = (390 + 250 ) v

v=\dfrac{390\times 0.5+250\times 0.76}{390+250}\ m/s

v=0.60 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the system will be 0.6 m/s.

Order the speed of sound through these materials from the slowest to the fastest.
Sholpan [36]

Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Explanation:

Step 1:

Speed of sound in water varies from 1450 to 1498 meters per second

Speed of sound in Hot Molten lead is approximately 1210 meters per second

Speed of sound in warm air is approximately 338.89 meters per second

Speed of sound in cold air is approximately 293.33 meters per second

Step 2:

In warm air sound travels faster than that of sound travelling nature in cold air.

∴ Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Speed of sound in cold air the slowest while Speed of sound in water is the fastest mean.

Which has the lowest heat capacity? (values of heat capacities and calculations are unnecessary).
Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is Metals.

Generally, the specific heat of metals is low. Very high specific heat exists in water.A physical feature of matter known as heat capacity or thermal capacity is the quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature. Heat capacity is measured in joules per kelvin (J/K), the SI unit. A broad property is heat capacity. Use the following equation to determine heat capacity: heat capacity = E / T, where E is the quantity of delivered heat energy and T is the change in temperature. The formula would be as follows, for instance, if it takes 2,000 Joules of energy to raise a block's temperature by 5 degrees Celsius: 2,000 Joules per °C is the heat capacity.

Hold a pencil in front of your eye at a position where its blunt end just blocks out the Moon.
Valentin [98]

Answer:

D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m

Explanation:

Light rays coming from moon is blocked by the pencil

so as per figure we know that angle subtended by pencil and angle subtended by moon must be same

so we have

Angle = \frac{Arc}{Radius}

so we have

\frac{D}{3.8 \times 10^8 m} = \frac{0.7 cm}{75 cm}

so we have

D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m
