If a ball is given an initial speed of 15 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface, how fast will the ball be rolling in 5 seco

The surface is frictionless, so there is no frictional force acting on the ball. There are no other forces acting on the ball in the horizontal direction, so it's a uniform motion with constant speed. Therefore, the velocity of the ball will remain the same for the entire duration of the motion, and so after 5 seconds the velocity is still 15 m/s.

Which theory suggests that the moon and the earth formed at the same time from dust and the solar nebula that formed the sun?
ad-work [718]

Answer: The correct answer is option(B.).

Explanation:

The co-formation theory explain that both moon and the earth are formed at same time from the primitive solar nebula (cloud made up of dust and gases)  at the same and same place.

Where as capture theory suggests that the moon is an asteroid which was formed or created somewhere else in a solar system. And when the moon approached the earth planet it got captured by the earth's gravitational field.

Impact theory explains the formation of moon by the catastrophic collision between the earth and any planet half the size of earth's size.

Synchronous theory sheds the light on the rotation time, revolution time and sides of moon located from the surface of the earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option(B).

Indigenous people sometimes cooked in watertight baskets by placing enough hot rocks into the water to bring it to a boil. What
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of the rock = TO BE DETERMINED

Temperature of the rock = 500 °C

Mass of the water  =4.24 kg

⇒ loses 0.044kg as vapor

Initial temperature of the water = 29°C

Final temperature = 100°C

Specific heat of rock = 0.20 kcal/kg °C

Specific heat of water = 1kcal/kg°C

Latent heat of vaporization = 539 kcal/kg

<u>Step 2:</u> formules

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qtotal,water = Qwater +Qvapor

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate Qvapor

Qvapor = mass of vapor * Latent heat of vapor

Qvapor = 0.044kg * 539 kcal/kg = 23.716 kcal

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate Qwater

Qwater = mass of water * specific heat * Δtemperature

Qwater = 4.196 kg * 1kcal/kg°C *( 100-29)

Qwater = 297.916 kcal

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate Qwater,total

Qwater,total = Qwater + Qvapor

Qwater,total = 23.716 kcal + 297.916 = 321.632 kcal

<u>Step 6</u>: Calculate Qrock

Qrock = mass of rock * specific heat rock * Δtemperature

Qrock = mass of rock * 0.20 kcal/kg°C * (100-500)

Qrock = mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg

<u>Step 7:</u> Calculate mass of rock

Qlost,rock + Qgained,water = 0

Qlost,rock = -Qgained,water

mass of rock * -80 kcal/kg = -321.632 kcal

mass of rock = 4.02 kg

The rock has a mass of 4.02 kg

Starting from zero, the electric current takes 2 seconds to reach half its maximum possible value in an RL circuit with a resist
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

time=4s

Explanation:

we know that in a RL circuit with a resistance R, an inductance L and a battery of emf E, the current (i) will vary in following fashion

i(t)=\frac{E}{R}(1-e^\frac{-t}{\frac{L}{R}}), where imax=\frac{E}{R}

Given that, at i(2)=\frac{imax}{2} =\frac{E}{2R}

⇒\frac{E}{2R}=\frac{E}{R}(1-e^\frac{-2}{\frac{L}{R}})

⇒\frac{1}{2}=1-e^\frac{-2}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒\frac{1}{2}=e^\frac{-2}{\frac{L}{R}}

Applying logarithm on both sides,

⇒log(\frac{1}{2})=\frac{-2}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒log(2)=\frac{2}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒\frac{L}{R}=\frac{2}{log2}

Now substitute i(t)=\frac{3}{4}imax=\frac{3E}{4R}

⇒\frac{3E}{4R}=\frac{E}{R}(1-e^\frac{-t}{\frac{L}{R}})

⇒\frac{3}{4}=1-e^\frac{-t}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒\frac{1}{4}=e^\frac{-t}{\frac{L}{R}}

Applying logarithm on both sides,

⇒log(\frac{1}{4})=\frac{-t}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒log(4)=\frac{t}{\frac{L}{R}}

⇒t=log4\frac{L}{R}

now subs. \frac{L}{R}=\frac{2}{log2}

⇒t=log4\frac{2}{log2}

also log4=log2^{2}=2log2

⇒t=2log2\frac{2}{log2}

⇒t=4

What will be the change in velocity of a 850kg car if a force of 50,000 N
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

29.412m/s

Explanation:

F=ma where F= force, m= mass, and a=acceleration

we also know that,

a = Δv / t where Δv = change in velocity and t = time

thus F = m ( Δv / t)

50000=850(\frac{v}{0.5})

\frac{50000}{1700}= Δv

29.412m/s=Δv
