A rock at rest falls off a tall cliff and hits the valley below after 3.5s. What is the rocks velocity as it hits the ground

The specific heat of substance A is greater than that of substance B. Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equa

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Explanation:

For this case we know the following info:

$c_{pA} > c_{pB}$

Where c means specific heat for the substance A and B.

We also know that the initial temperatures for both sustances are equal:

$T_{iA}= T_{iB}$

We assume that we don't have melting or vaporization in the 2 substances. So we just have presence of sensible heat given by this formula:

$Q = m c_p \Delta T$

And for this case we know that Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equal amounts of energy are added to them, so then we have this:

$Q_A = Q_B$

And if we replace the formula for sensible heat we got:

$m_A c_{pA} \Delta T_A = m_B c_{pB} \Delta T_B$

And if we replace for the change of the temperature we got:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T_{iA}) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T_{iB})$

And since $T_{iA}= T_{iB}= T$ we have this:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Which property of light would provide evidence for the idea that light is a wave?

Lena [83]

Color property of light would provide evidence for the idea that light is a wave

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The reality is that light manifests practices that are representative of both waves and particles. Young proposed that light of varying colors was formed of waves possessing various lengths, a basic theory that is popularly believed today. In contradiction, the particle theory advocates envisioned that several colors were obtained from particles holding either various masses or moving at various speeds.

All waves are perceived to experience refraction when they transpire from one means to another means. Light, similar to any wave, is apprehended to refract as it transfers from one medium into another medium.

How many Mars-sized planets can fit in Jupiter

Maru [420]

Answer:

You could put over six planets the size of Mars inside the Earth. The largest planet in our Solar System, Jupiter's size is astounding. Jupiter has a volume of 1.43 x 1015 cubic kilometers. To show what this number means, you could fit 1321 Earths inside of Jupiter
