If an object's velocity is steadily increasing it means that the acceleration is constant at a certain value.

Choice A shows an acceleration of zero which would only be true if the object was not moving or if its velocity was not changing.

Choice B gives us a graph showing acceleration increasing over time and is therefore incorrect.

Choice C is correct because the acceleration is constant. Steadily increasing tells us that the acceleration is fixed at a certain value.

Choice D is incorrect an represents a constant negative acceleration. This would be the case if the object was steadily decreasing in velocity.

Which of the following is not an example of a chemical reaction? Rust, Photosynthesis, Melting Ice, Heat from Fire?
FinnZ [79.3K]
Rust, photosynthesis, and heat from fire are all chemical reactions <span>because </span>new substances are formed and the chemical formula is changed. By doing this, bonds are broken and formed in the making of the new substance. Melting ice is physical change the molecules are still water molecules, it just changed physical form.

I’m not sure how to solve this
spayn [35]

Answer:

Option 10. 169.118 J/KgºC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) absorbed = 1.61 KJ

Mass of metal bar = 476 g

Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?

Next, we shall convert 1.61 KJ to joule (J). This can be obtained as follow:

1 kJ = 1000 J

Therefore,

1.61 KJ = 1.61 KJ × 1000 J / 1 kJ

1.61 KJ = 1610 J

Next, we shall convert 476 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

476 g = 476 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

476 g = 0.476 Kg

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the metal bar. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) absorbed = 1610 J

Mass of metal bar = 0.476 Kg

Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?

Q = MCΔT

1610 = 0.476 × C × 20

1610 = 9.52 × C

Divide both side by 9.52

C = 1610 / 9.52

C = 169.118 J/KgºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of the metal bar is 169.118 J/KgºC

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>

A pail in a water well is hoisted by means of a frictionless winch, which consists of a spool and a hand crank. When Jill turns
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

166 W

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which work is done.

\text{Power} = \dfrac{\text{Work done}}{\text{time}}

The work done by Jill is the product of the weight of the pail and the height it moves.

The weight is the product of the mass and acceleration of gravity, <em>g</em>. Taking <em>g</em> as 9.81 m/s², the weight is

<em>W</em> = (6.90 kg)(9.81 m/s²) = 67.689 N

Work done = (67.689 N)(27.0 m) = 1827.603 J

Power = (1827.603 J) ÷ (11.0 s) = 166 W
