A student is investigating the best method for heating marshmallows using an open flame.

Physics
1 answer:
Llana [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is Conduction.

Explanation:

In the first scenario given in the question where the student is holding the marshmallows on the side of the flame, she is subjecting the marshmallow the a heat transfer by radiation since the marshmallow is not in direct contact with the fire.

Heat transfer by radiation is done so with the heating of the air between the object and the heat source and does not need any contact between the source and the heated material.

And later when she places the marshmallow over the flames, the heat transfer type she is observing is heat transfer by conduction.

I hope this answer helps.

A 9.0 kg bowling ball races down the lane at 15 m/s before striking a bowling pin (at rest) with a mass of 0.85 kg. If the 0.85
artcher [175]

Answer:

v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The system ball-pin is modelled by the Principle of Moment Conservation:

(9\,kg)\cdot (15\,\frac{m}{s} ) + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (0\frac{m}{s} ) = (9\,kg)\cdot v + (0.85\,kg)\cdot (45\,\frac{m}{s} )

The velocity of the bowling ball after the collision is:

v = 10.75\,\frac{m}{s}

A projectile is launched at an angle of 30 and lands 20 s later at the same height as it was launched. (a) What is the initial s
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

(a) 196 m/s

(b) 490 m

(c) 3394.82 m

(d) 2572.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, let us know one thing. When an object is thrown in the air, it experiences two forces acting in two different directions, one in the horizontal direction called air resistance and the second in the vertically downward direction due to its weight. In most of the cases, while solving numerical problems, air resistance is neglected unless stated in the numerical problem. This means we can assume zero acceleration along the horizontal direction.

Now, while solving our numerical problem, we will discuss motion along two axes according to our convenience in the course of solving this problem.

<u>Given:</u>

  • Time of flight = t = 20 s
  • Angle of the initial velocity of projectile with the horizontal = \theta = 30^\circ

<u>Assume:</u>

  • Initial velocity of the projectile = u
  • R = Range of the projectile during the time of flight
  • H = maximum height of the projectile
  • D = displacement of the projectile from the initial position at t = 15 s

Let us assume that the position from where the projectile was projected lies at origin.

  • Initial horizontal velocity of the projectile = u\cos \theta
  • Initial horizontal velocity of the projectile = u\sin \theta

Part (a):

During the time of flight the displacement of the projectile along the vertical is zero as it comes to the same vertical height from where it was projected.

\therefore u\sin \theta t +\dfrac{1}{2}(-g)t^2\\\Rightarrow u\sin \theta t=\dfrac{1}{2}(g)t^2\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{gt^2}{2\sin \theta t}\\\Rightarrow u=\dfrac{9.8\times 20^2}{2\sin 30^\circ \times 20}\\\Rightarrow u=196\ m/s

Hence, the initial speed  of the projectile is 196 m/s.

Part (b):

For a projectile, the time take by it to reach its maximum height is equal to return from the maximum height to its initial height is the same.

So, time taken to reach its maximum height will be equal to 10 s.

And during the upward motion of this time interval, the distance travel along the vertical will give us maximum height.

\therefore H = u\sin \theta t +\dfrac{1}{2}(-g)t^2\\\Rightarrow H = 196\times \sin 30^\circ \times 10 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times(-9.8)\times 10^2\\ \Rightarrow H =490\ m

Hence, the maximum altitude is 490 m.

Part (c):

Range is the horizontal displacement of the projectile from the initial position. As acceleration is zero along the horizontal, the projectile is in uniform motion along the horizontal direction.

So, the range is given by:

R = u\cos \theta t\\\Rightarrow R = 196\times \cos 30^\circ \times 20\\\Rightarrow R =3394.82\ m

Hence, the range of the projectile is 3394.82 m.

Part (d):

In order to calculate the displacement of the projectile from its initial position, we first will have to find out the height of the projectile and its range during 15 s.

\therefore h = u\sin \theta t +\dfrac{1}{2}(-g)t^2\\\Rightarrow h = 196\times \sin 30^\circ \times 15 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times(-9.8)\times 15^2\\ \Rightarrow h =367.5\ m\\r = u\cos \theta t\\\Rightarrow r = 196\times \cos 30^\circ \times 15\\\Rightarrow r =2546.11\ m\\\therefore D = \sqrt{r^2+h^2}\\\Rightarrow D = \sqrt{2546.11^2+367.5^2}\\\Rightarrow D =2572.5\ m

Hence, the displacement from the point of launch to the position on its trajectory at 15 s is 2572.5 m.

The freight cars a and b have a mass of 20 mg and 15 mg, respectively. if the cars collide and couple together, what is the velo
igomit [66]

Suppose car A is moving with a velocity Va, and car b with a velocity Vb,

According the principle of conservation of momentum:

Va x Ma + Vb x Mb = (Ma + Mb) V

V = (Va x Ma + Vb x Mb)/(Ma +Mb)

V = speed of cars after coupling

V = (Va x 20 mg + Vb x  15 mg)/(20 mg + 15 mg)

Put in the values of Va and Vb, and get the V
