Answer:

t = 3.516 s

Explanation:

The most useful kinematic formula would be the velocity of the motorcylce as a function of time, which is:

v(t) = v_0 +at

Where v_0 is the initial velocity and a is the acceleration. However the problem states that the motorcyle start at rest therefore v_0 = 0

If we want to know the time it takes to achieve that speed, we first need to convert units from km/h to m/s.

This can be done knowing that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

Therefore

1 km/h = (1000/3600) m/s = 0.2777... m/s

100 km/h = 27.777... m/s

Now we are looking for the time t, for which v(t) = 27.77 m/s. That is:

27.777 m/s = 7.9 m/s^2 t

Solving for t

t = (27.7777 / 7.9) s = 3.516 s

What is latent heat of fusion?
Naddik [55]

If you have a lump of solid at its melting point ... like ice at 32°F ...
you have to put a certain amount of heat into it just to change it
to water at 32°F.  That amount of heat, that's used just to change
a solid lump into liquid without changing its temperature, is called
the heat of fusion for that substance.

The number is different for every substance.

For water, it takes 336 joules of heat to melt 1 gram of ice
into 1 gram of water, all at 32°F (0°C).
That's an enormous latent heat of fusion ... more than almost any
other known substance.  That's why ice is such a good choice
when you need something to put in your drink to cool it down.
Ice absorbs a huge amount of heat before it melts and the drink
gets watered down.

What is the difference between kinetic and gravitacional energy?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion

In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge. The reference location, where the potential is zero, is by convention infinitely far away from any mass, resulting in a negative potential at any finite distance.

In mathematics, the gravitational potential is also known as the Newtonian potential and is fundamental in the study of potential theory. It may also be used for solving the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields generated by uniformly charged or polarized ellipsoidal bodies

Explain the molecular concept of thermal energy.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The temperature of an object increases when the molecules that make up that object move faster. Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within the object or the system.
