In terms of energy the ice absorbs energy causing the molecules of water to have more kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from a solid to a liquid.

When the ice melts, it changes from a solid state to a liquid state.

 When it is heated, the kinetic energy of the molecules that compose it, increases, the energy that the ice received, is transformed into potential energy and the content of kinetic energy stays constant. This causes a variation in the order of the ice molecules, which have a fixed position when the matter is in solid state.

A diver leaves the end of a 4.0 m high diving board and strikes the water 1.3s later, 3.0m beyond the end of the board. Consider
shutvik [7]

Answer:

4.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the diver is the motion of a projectile: so we need to find the horizontal and the vertical component of the initial velocity.

Let's consider the horizontal motion first. This motion occurs with constant speed, so the distance covered in a time t is

d=v_x t

where here we have

d = 3.0 m is the horizontal distance covered

vx is the horizontal velocity

t = 1.3 s is the duration of the fall

Solving for vx,

v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{3.0 m}{1.3 s}=2.3 m/s

Now let's consider the vertical motion: this is an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. The vertical position at time t is given by

y(t) = h + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 4.0 m is the initial height

vy is the initial vertical velocity

We know that at t = 1.3 s, the vertical position is zero: y = 0. Substituting these numbers, we can find vy

0=h+v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\v_y = \frac{0.5gt^2-h}{t}=\frac{0.5(9.8 m/s^2)(1.3 s)^2-4.0 m}{1.3 s}=3.3 m/s

So now we can find the magnitude of the initial velocity:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(2.3 m/s)^2+(3.3 m/s)^2}=4.0 m/s

Compare positive and negative feedback mechanisms.
NeX [460]

Answer:

In positive feedback mechanism, the output is fed back to the system which further increases the output. Hence, it is known as positive feedback because it amplifies the output.

In the negative feedback mechanism, the output is fed back to the system which further decreases the the output. Hence, it is known as negative feedback because it reduces the output.

34kurt

Answer:

The average current density at the position of the area.

Explanation:

Current density is the vector whose magnitude is electric current in the cross sectional area. Current density is vector quantity which is measured in amperes. The average current density is dependent on the electric current flow. It has perpendicular direction of flow and scalar magnitude.

If it takes Tanya 9.4 hours to get to her cousin's house while driving an average of 40 mph, how far away does her
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

376 miles

Explanation:

speed = distance / time

therefore distance = speed * time

distance = 40 miles/hr * 9.4 hr

then

distance = 375 miles
