Answer:
The acceleration of the snowball is 0.3125
Explanation:
The initial speed of the snowball up the hill, u = 0
The speed the snowball reaches, v = 5 m/s
The length of the hill, s = 40 m
The equation of motion of the snowball given the above parameters is therefore;
v² = u² + 2·a·s
Where;
a = The acceleration of the snowball
Plugging in the values, we have;
5² = 0² + 2 × a × 40
∴ 2 × 40 × a = 5² = 25
80 × a = 25
a = 25/80 = 5/16
a = The acceleration of the snowball = 5/16 m/s².
The acceleration of the snowball = 5/16 m/s² = 0.3125 m/s² .

Answer:
The greater the luminosity of a star, the longer its period of oscillation.
As a substance is changing from a liquid to a gas, the distance between its molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same.
Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The external energy required to change from one state to another is mostly considered as temperature. So on increase in temperature, the solid changes to liquid and the liquid changes to gases. But the temperature remains constant in the system after changing the phase.
This is because when the temperature is increased on a liquid system, the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and thus the molecules will be distanced from each other. If we consider liquid - gas phase transition, the gas molecules are farther distanced compared to liquid molecules.
So the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and also to provide the kinetic energy to the gas molecules as they are tend to move more freely compared to liquid. Thus, the distance between the molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same on changing from liquid to gas.
