Volume of water required to store 100,000 Btu of thermal energy is 320.51foot^{3} .

<u>Explanation:</u>

The complete question is : One cubic foot of water can store 312 Btu of thermal energy. On a cold winter day a well-constructed home may require 100,000 Btu of nighttime space heating. What is the volume of water required to store this energy? In this question , it's given that One cubic foot of water can store 312 Btu of thermal energy or 312 Btu takes 1 cubic foot of water ,So

1 Btu takes  \frac{1}{312} cubic foot of water

Therefore, 100,000 Btu takes:

⇒ volume = \frac{1}{312}(100,000) foot^{3}

⇒ volume = \frac{100,000}{312} foot^{3}

⇒ volume = 320.51 foot^{3}

∴ Volume of water required to store 100,000 Btu of thermal energy is 320.51foot^{3} .

A car of mass 998 kilograms moving in the positive y–axis at a speed of 20 meters/second collides on ice with another car of mas
goldfiish [28.3K]
    <span> Let’s determine the initial momentum of each car.
#1 = 998 * 20 = 19,960
#2 = 1200 * 17 = 20,400

This is this is total momentum in the x direction before the collision. B is the correct answer. Since momentum is conserved in both directions, this will be total momentum is the x direction after the collision. To prove that this is true, let’s determine the magnitude and direction of the total momentum after the collision.

Since the y axis and the x axis are perpendicular to each other, use the following equation to determine the magnitude of their final momentum.

Final = √(x^2 + y^2) = √(20,400^2 + 19,960^2) = √814,561,600

This is approximately 28,541. To determine the x component, we need to determine the angle of the final momentum. Use the following equation.

Tan θ = y/x = 19,960/20,400 = 499/510
θ = tan^-1 (499/510)

The angle is approximately 43.85˚ counter clockwise from the negative x axis. To determine the x component, multiply the final momentum by the cosine of the angle.

x = √814,561,600 * cos (tan^-1 (499/510) = 20,400</span>

A solid disk of radius 5.50 cm and mass 1.25 kg , which is rolling at a speed of 1.50 m/s , begins rolling without slipping up a
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Deceleration of solid disk = g sin10/1 + k²/r² = g sin 10 / 1 + 1/2 = g sin 10 x 2/3

[ k is radius of gyration of disk which is equal to( 1/√2)x r ]

deceleration a = -1.1345 m/s²

v = u - at , t = u / a = 1.5 / 1.1345 = 1.322 s.
