A snowball picks up speed as it rolls down the mountain.<em> (D)</em>
Since the description includes acceleration ("picks up speed"), we know that the forces on the snowball must be unbalanced.
According to the position vs time graph, the <em>average</em> <em>velocity</em> of the motorcycle is the change in position divided by the change in time. Also, note that the slope is linear and positive throughout the 5 hours, it doesn't change direction.
Therefore, we have
Avg velocity = change in direction/change in time
Avg velocity = (150km - 30km)/(5h - 0h)
Avg velocity = 24km/hr south.
Answer:
No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.
Explanation:
Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.
The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by
Q = mLf (melting/freezing,
Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),
where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.
An object's momentum is the product of its mass and its velocity:
p = mv
p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.
Given values:
p = -80kg×m/s
m = 8kg
Plug in these values and solve for v:
-80 = 8v
v = -10m/s
