Having aced your Physics 2111 class, you get a sweet summer-job working in the International Space Station. Your room-mate, Cosm

onaut Valdimir tosses a banana at you at a speed of 16 m/s. At exactly the same instant, you fling a scoop of ice cream at Valdimir along exactly the same path. The collision between banana and ice cream produces a banana split 8.2 m from your location 1.4 s after the banana and ice cream were launched.
1. How fast did you toss the ice cream?

2. How far were you from Valdimir when you tossed the ice cream?

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m

which of the numbers on this figure indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism)?
Tpy6a [65]

The number that indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism) is that showing schist and gneiss rocks.

<h3>What is regional metamorphism?</h3>

Regional metamorphism occurs when rocks undergoes changes as a result of high temperatures and pressure deep within the earth's crust.

Regional metamorphic rocks are usually foliated or squashed in appearance.

Examples of regional metamorphism rocks are schist and gneiss rocks.

Therefore, the figure that indicates typical continental conditions (regional metamorphism) is that showing schist and gneiss rocks.

The freezer compartment in a conventional refrigerator can be modeled as a rectangular cavity 0.3 m high and 0.25 m wide with a

Answer:

Thickness of Styrofoam insulation is 0.02741 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 0.25 m

Depth = 0.5 m

Power = 400 W

Temperature = 33°C

We need to calculate the area of Styrofoam

Using formula of area

A=2(lb+bh+hl)

Put the value into the formula

A=2(0.3\times0.5+0.25\times0.5+0.5\times0.3)

A=0.85\ m^2

Inner surface temperature of freezer

T_{i}=-10°C=263\ K

Outer surface temperature of freezer

T_{o}=33+273=306\ K

We need to calculate the thickness of Styrofoam insulation

Using Fourier law,

q=\dfrac{kA}{L}(T_{o}-T_{i})

L=\dfrac{kA}{q}(T_{o}-T_{i})

Put the value into the formula

L=\dfrac{0.30\times0.85}{400}(306-263)

L=0.02741\ m

Hence, Thickness of Styrofoam insulation is 0.02741 m.

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?
Lostsunrise [7]
That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)<span />
