An iron nail is driven into a block of ice by a single blow of a hammer. The hammerhead has a mass of 0.5 kg and an initial spee

d of 3.2 m/s. Nail and hammer are at rest after the blow. How much ice melts? Assume the temperature of both the ice and the nail is 0◦C before and after. The heat of fusion of ice is 80 cal/g. Answer in units of g.

Answer:

The ice melts mass is:

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy  

K_E = 1/2*m*v^2

K_E = 1/2*0.5kg*(3.2m/s)^2

K_E=2.56 kg*m^2/s^2

Heat gained by ice= mass(g) x 80 cal

( 1 cal = 4.184 *10^7er or g cm^2/ sec^2)

Assuming no loss in heat,  in the motion so both continue with temperature 0~C

To find so the mass (gm) of ice melted

m_g= 1/2 *(0.5*1000)*(3.2m/s)^2* 100*100 / (80*4.184*10^7)

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

The IRB at the university will decide whether her study meets ethical guidelines before it is initiated. The importance of these codes of conduct is to safeguard research participants, the status of psychology and the researchers or psychologists themselves. Moral issues hardly yield a simple, unequivocal, right or wrong answer. It is consequently often a matter of judgment whether the research is justified or not. For instance, it might be that a study roots psychological or physical uneasiness to participants, maybe they agonize pain or maybe even come to solemn harm.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

b) Gravity

Explanation:

Gravity acts all of the time, when you apply force to a projectile it has to be more than the forces of the gravity and air resistance together so the projectile can move,  when the rock is at the top of its trajectory the force that you applied at the beginning is getting lost, so the other forces (air resistance and gravity) make the rock fall to the floor.
