The Law of Conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant-it is said to be the conserved over time. It applies by us burning calories because humans can lose or gain weight.
Answer:
V=15.3 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:
the elastic potencial energy is given by:
The work is defined as:
this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.
The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:
the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.
The displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.
<h3>
Resultant velocity of the train</h3>
The resultant velocity of the train is calculated as follows;
R² = vi² + vf² - 2vivf cos(θ)
where;
- θ is the angle between the velocity = (90 - 51) + 37 = 76⁰
R² = 8.81² + 9.66² - 2(8.81 x 9.66) cos(76)
R² = 129.75
R = √129.75
R = 11.39 m/s
<h3>Displacement of the train</h3>
Δx = vt
Δx = 11.39 m/s x 2.23 s
Δx = 25.4 m
Thus, the displacement of the train after 2.23 seconds is 25.4 m.

Answer:
The specific heat capacity of the zinc metal measured in this experiment is 0.427 J/g.°C
Explanation:
From the experimental data, the water loses heat because its initial temperature is greater than the final temperature of the mixture. On the other hand, the zinc metal gains heat because its initial temperature is less than the final temperature of the mixture
Heat loss by water = Heat gain by zinc metal
m1C1(T1 - T3) = m2C2(T3 - T2)
m1 is mass of water = 55.4 g
C1 is specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g.°C
m2 is mass of zinc metal = 23.4 g
C2 is specific heat capacity of zinc metal
T1 is the initial temperature of water = 99.61 °C
T2 is the initial temperature of zinc metal = 21.6 °C
T3 is the final temperature of the mixture = 96.4 °C
55.4×4.2(99.61 - 96.4) = 23.4×C2(96.4 - 21.6)
746.9028 = 1750.32C2
C2 = 746.9028/1750.32 = 0.427 J/g.°C
If we ignore air resistance, as we always do,
there is no horizontal acceleration.
Gravity acts only in the vertical direction, and
no other forces act on the ball after the punt.
