Answer:
negative acceleration of 4m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 66m/s
Final velocity = 26m/s
Time taken = 10s
Unknown:
Description of the acceleration = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
acceleration =
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Now insert the parameters and solve;
Acceleration =
= -4m/s²
So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²
As you coast down a long hill on your bicycle, potential energy from your height is converted to kinetic energy as you and your bike are pulled downward by gravity along the slope of the hill. While there is air resistance and friction slowing you down by a little bit, your speed increases gradually until you apply the brakes, causing enough friction to slow yourself and the bike to a stop at the bottom
Answer:
3349J/kgC
Explanation:
Questions like these are properly handled having this fact in mind;
Quantity of heat = mcΔ∅
m = mass of subatance
c = specific heat capacity
Δ∅ = change in temperature
m₁c₁(∅₂-∅₁) = m₂c₂(∅₁-∅₃)
m₁ = mass of block = 500g = 0.5kg
c₁ = specific heat capacity of unknown substance
∅₂ = block initial temperature = 50oC
∅₁ = equilibrium temperature of block and water after mix= 25oC
m₂= mass of water = 2kg
c₂ = specific heat capacity of water = 4186J/kg C
∅₃ = intial temperature of water = 20oC
0.5c₁(50-25) = 2 x 4186(25-20)
And we can find c₁ which is the unknown specific heat capacity
c₁ =
= 3348.8J/kg C≅ 3349J/kg C
Since the formula is mass/volume the density is 3.4915......g/cm^3
