1 answer:
IrinaK [193]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(a) 5142.86 m

(b) 317.5 m/s

(c) 49.3 degree C

Explanation:

m = 100 kg, Q = 1200 kcal = 1200 x 1000 x 4.2 = 504 x 10^4 J

(a) Let the altitude be h

Q = m x g x h

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 9.8 x h

h = 5142.86 m

(b) Let v be the speed

Q = 1/2 m v^2

504 x 10^4 =  1/2 x 100 x v^2

v = 317.5 m/s

(c) The temperature of normal human body, T1 = 37 degree C

Let the final temperature is T2.

Q = m x c x (T2 - T1)

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 4.1 x 1000 x (T2 - 37)

T2 = 49.3 degree C

A ball is thrown horizontally from a 20-m-high building with a speed of 5.0m/s
KATRIN_1 [288]
1) Horizontal velocity, Vx

Vx is constant and equal to 5.0 m/s

The graph Vx(t) = 5.0 m/s is a horizontal line (parallel to the horizontal t-axis). that intercepts the vertical-axis at 5.0 and runs from t = 0 to t = 2.

2) Vertical velocity, Vy

Vy = gt = 10t

d = at^2 / 2 => tmax = √(2d / a) = √(2*20m/10m/s^2) = 2 s

Graph Vy is an inclined line with slope 10 m/s^2, that runs from t =0 to t = 2 s, and passes through the points (0,0), (1,10), and (2,20).

Two waves with equal amplitude meet each other, resulting in a wave zero amplitude. Which phenomenon explains this result?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

(D) Interference

Explanation:

Interference is a phenomenon characteristic for waves. When two waves meet, they interfere and result in a new wave. The precise shape of the resultant wave depends on the amplitude, frequency and phase of the constituent waves. In a most basic setting, two types of interference occur: constructive (resultant amplitude increases) and destructive (resultant amplitude decreases).

What is the best description of a convergent boundary? (Do they move towards eachother, side by side past each other, away from
IrinaVladis [17]
Convergent boundaries move towards each other. They can be classified as continental-continental, or oceanic-continental.

Oceanic-Continental: Heavier oceanic plate slides under a continental plate in a process called subduction.

Continental-Continental: Tectonic plates push up against each other and often fold upwards, creating mountain ranges.

fredd [130]

Answer:

0.25m²

Explanation:

We know that the summation of forces in the vertical direction is zero

So

PA-mg=0

A=mg/p

So

Substituting

A= 75* 9.8/3*10^-3

=0.25m² which is the total shoe area
