Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast
kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 is the mass of the first mosquito

u_1 = 0 is the initial velocity of the mosquito

m_2 = 50 m_1 is the mass of the raindrop

u_2 = 8.4 m/s is the initial velocity of the raindrop

v is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:  

m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s

Which event demonstrates electromagnetic waves transferring energy?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Sun heating a car sitting in a parking lot

Explanation:

The sun heating a car sitting in a parking lot is an example of electromagnetic waves transferring energy.

  • Electromagnetic waves are produced from the vibration between electric and magnetic fields.
  • These waves can be propagated through vacuum with no particles inside of them.
  • The sun produces electromagnetic radiation through the process of nuclear fusion.
  • These radiations are used to warm the earth surface.
  • The sun heating a car sitting a parking lot is one vivid example.

Why does your heart not get tired of constantly beating throughout your body
Ipatiy [6.2K]

cardiac muscle is striated. Uniquely, the cells of this kind of muscle are joined strongly together at adherens junctions that “enable the heart to contract forcefully without ripping the fibers apart.”

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

2.36 x 10^6 J

Explanation:

Tc = 0°C = 273 K

TH = 22.5°C = 295.5 K

Qc = heat used to melt the ice

mass of ice, m = 85.7 Kg

Latent heat of fusion, L = 3.34 x 10^5 J/kg

Let Energy supplied is E which is equal to the work done

Qc = m x L = 85.7 x 3.34 x 10^5 =  286.24 x 10^5 J

Use the Carnot's equation

\frac{Q_{H}}{Q_{c}}=\frac{T_{H}}{T_{c}}

Q_{H}=286.24\times 10^{5}\times \frac{295.5}{273}

QH = 309.8 x 10^5 J

W = QH - Qc

W = (309.8 - 286.24) x 10^5

W = 23.56 x 10^5 J

W = 2.36 x 10^6 J

Thus, the energy supplied is 2.36 x 10^6 J.
