We could determine the acceleration using this formula
Given from the question v₀ = 23 m/s, v₁ = 0 (the car stops), t = 5 s
plug in the numbers
a = -4.6
The acceleration is -4.6 m/s²
Answer:
D) The heavier ball will have a higher temperature because the change of temperature is inversely proportional to mass.
Explanation:
As stated in the problem, the amount of heat released by each ball is
where
m is the mass of the ball
Cp is the specific heat of iron (so, it is equal for both balls)
is the change in temperature of each ball
In this problem, we are said that the amount of heat released by the two balls, Q, is the same. Cp is also the same: this means that the product 
must be the same for the two balls. So, the mass and the change in temperature are inversely proportional: therefore, the heavier ball will have a smaller change in temperature. And since both balls starts from the same temperature, 100 C, this means that the heavier ball will reach a higher temperature than the lighter ball.
Given
Car 1
m1 = 1300 kg
v1 = 20 m/s
m2 = 900 kg
v2 = -15 m/s
(Negative sign shows that direction of car 2 is opposite to car 1)
Procedure
As per the conservation of linear momentum, "The total momentum of the system before the collision must be equal to the total momentum after the collision". And this applies to the perfectly inelastic collision as well. Then the expression is,
Thus, we can conclude that the speed and direction of the cars after the impact is 5.68 m/s towards the first car.
Answer:
a)
Y0 = 0 m
Vy0 = 15 m/s
ay = -9.81 m/s^2
b) 7.71 m
c) 3.06 s
Explanation:
The knowns are that the initial vertical speed (at t = 0 s) is 15 m/s upwards. Also at that time the dolphin is coming out of the water, so its initial position is 0 m. And since we can safely assume this happens in Earth, the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.81 m/s^2 pointing downwards
Y(0) = 0 m
Vy(0) = 15 m/s
ay = -9.81 m/s^2 (negative because it points down)
Since acceleration is constant we can use the equation for uniformly accelerated movement:
Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
To find the highest point we do the first time derivative (this is the speed:
V(t) = Vy0 + a * t
We equate this to zero
0 = Vy0 + a * t
0 = 15 - 9.81 * t
15 = 9.81 * t
t = 0.654 s
At this time it will have a height of:
Y(0.654) = 0 + 15 * 0.654 - 1/2 * 9.81 * 0.654^2 = 7.71 m
The doplhin jumps and falls back into the water, when it falls again it position will be 0 again. So we can equate the position to zero to find how long it was in the air knowing that it started the jump at t = 0s.
0 = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
0 = 0 + 15 * t - 1/2 * 9.81 t^2
0 = 15 * t - 4.9 * t^2
0 = t * (15 - 4.9 * t)
t1 = 0 This is the moment it jumped into the air
0 = 15 - 4.9 * t2
15 = 4.9 * t2
t2 = 3.06 s This is the moment when it falls again.
3.06 - 0 = 3.06 s
