A child bounces a 52 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 20 m/s downward to 14 m/s upward.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Force on superball will be $=9.8222\times 10^{-4}N$

Explanation:

We have given mass of superball m = 52 gram = 0.052 kg

Velocity change from 20 m/sec downward to 14 m/sec upward

Let downward velocity is positive then upward velocity is negative

So downward velocity is + 20 m/sec and upward velocity is -14 m/sec

Time is given as 1800 sec

We know that acceleration is rate of change of velocity

So $a=\frac{20-(-14)}{1800}=0.0188m/sec^2$

According to newton second law

Force = ma = 0.052×0.0188 $=9.8222\times 10^{-4}N$

A 15-ft3 tank contains oxygen initially at 14.7 psia and 80°F. A paddle wheel within the tank is rotated until the pressure insi

Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

Equation for energy balance will be as follows.

$\Delta E_{system} = E_{in} - E_{out}$

$\Delta U = W_{in} - Q_{out}$

Hence, $W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Therefore, we will calculate the final temperature as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V}{T_{2}}$

$T_{2} = \frac{20 psia}{14.7}(638 R)$

= 868.03 R

Now, we will calculate the mass as follows.

m = $\frac{P_{1}V}{RT_{1}}$

= $\frac{14.7 psia \times 15 ft^{3}}{0.3353 psi ft^{3}/lbm R \times 638 R}$

= 1.031 lbm

Hence,

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Putting the values into the above equation as follows.

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

$W_{in} = 20 Btu + 1.031 lbm (\frac{0.160 Btu}{lbm R})(735 - 540)R$

$W_{in}$ = 655.2 Btu

Thus, we can conclude that work done by paddle wheel is 655.2 Btu.

Why is cheese only strechy when its hot not when its cold (i spelt stretchy wrong but i dont want to change it cuz that would ta

IgorC [24]

That is a really good question, cheese is stretchy when it is hot is because when you heat it up, it liquefies which makes it stretch. it doesn't stretch when it is cold because it is a solid and solids usually do not stretch.
