natima [27]

When the metal spoon comes in contact with the hot soup, heat transfer from hot soup to the spoon because of difference in temperature of the two. The kind of heat transfer represented here is conduction. In conduction, heat is transferred from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature when there is a physical contact between the two.

A skydiver of 75 kg mass has a terminal velocity of 60 m/s. At what speed is the resistive force on the skydiver half that when
ankoles [38]

Answer:

The speed of the resistive force is 42.426 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of skydiver, m = 75 kg

terminal velocity, V_T = 60 \ m/s

The resistive force on the skydiver is known as drag force.

Drag force is directly proportional to square of terminal velocity.

F_D = kV_T^2

Where;

k is a constant

k = \frac{F_D_1}{V_{T1}^2} = \frac{F_D_2}{V_{T2}^2}

When the new drag force is half of the original drag force;

F_D_2 = \frac{F_D_1}{2} \\\\\frac{F_D_1}{V_{T1}^2} = \frac{F_D_2}{V_{T2}^2} \\\\\frac{F_D_1}{V_{T1}^2} = \frac{F_D_1}{2V_{T2}^2} \\\\\frac{1}{V_{T1}^2} = \frac{1}{2V_{T2}^2}\\\\2V_{T2}^2 = V_{T1}^2\\\\V_{T2}^2= \frac{V_{T1}^2}{2} \\\\V_{T2}= \sqrt{\frac{V_{T1}^2}{2} } \\\\V_{T2}=  \frac{V_{T1}}{\sqrt{2} } \\\\V_{T2}=  0.7071(V_{T1})\\\\V_{T2}= 0.7071(60 \ m/s)\\\\V_{T2}= 42.426 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the resistive force is 42.426 m/s

amid [387]
<span>A. Rocket A will travel farther horizontally than rocket B.

This is because from the x axis, 40 m/s at 90 degrees travels directly vertical. 40 m/s at 70 degrees is slightly horizontal, so it will travel further horizontally.</span>
