Radiant heating can direct warm air where it is needed and it is not an advantage.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Radiant heating is the process in which the heat is supplied directly to the floor and to the object. It uses infrared radiation which is a form of electromagnetic waves.

They are capable of heating the floor uniformly. Without any need for corrections and they are easy to install also. Their disadvantage is that they are capable of sucking warm air.

Forces present on a flying dove
storchak [24]

Answer:

There are four forces acting on a bird in flight, lift, thrust, drag and gravity (weight). These four forces act in pairs, as shown on the right. If a bird is to fly it must overcome drag and weight by generating a greater force of thrust and lift.

If a 140 lb. climber saved her potential energy as she descended from Mt. Everest (Elev. 29,029 ft) to Kathmandu (Elev. 4,600 ft
mamaluj [8]

Answer: 3217.79 hours.

Explanation:

Given, A 140 lb. climber saved her potential energy as she descended from Mt. Everest (Elev. 29,029 ft) to Kathmandu (Elev. 4,600 ft).

Power = 0.4 watt

Mass of climber = 140 lb

= 140 x 0.4535 kg  [∵ 1 lb= 0.4535 kg]

⇒ Mass of climber (m) = 63.50 kg

Let h_1=29,029\ ft= 8848.04\ m\ \ \ \  [ 1 ft=0.3048\ m ] and h_2= 4,600 ft = 1402.08\ m

Now, Energy saved =mg(h_1-h_2)=(63.50)(9.8)(8848.04-1402.08)=4633620.91\ J

\text{Power}=\dfrac{\text{energy}}{\text{time}}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.4=\dfrac{4633620.91}{\text{time}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{time}=\dfrac{4633620.91}{0.4}\approx11584052.28\text{ seconds}\\\\=\dfrac{11584052.28}{3600}\text{ hours}\ \ \ [\text{1 hour = 3600 seconds}]\\\\=3217.79\text{ hours}

Hence, she can power her 0.4 watt flashlight for 3217.79 hours.

Answer:

The speed of the 8-ball is 2.125 m/s after the collision.

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum</u>

The total momentum of a system of masses is conserved unless an external force is applied. The momentum of a body with mass m and velocity v is calculated as follows:

P=mv

If we have a system of masses, then the total momentum is the sum of all the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

When a collision occurs, the velocities change to v' and the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2+...+m_nv'_n

In a system of two masses, the law of conservation of linear momentum is simplified to:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

The m1=0.16 Kg 8-ball is initially at rest v1=0. It is hit by an m2=0.17 Kg cue ball that was moving at v2=2 m/s.

After the collision, the cue ball comes to rest v2'=0. It's required to find the final speed v1' after the collision.

The above equation is solved for v1':

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2-m_2v'_2}{m_1}

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{0.16*0+0.17*2-0.17*0}{0.16}

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{0.34}{0.16}

v'_1=2.125\ m/s

The speed of the 8-ball is 2.125 m/s after the collision.

A 71-kg swimmer dives horizontally off a 500-kg raft. If the diver's speed immediately after leaving the raft is 6m/s, what is t
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Momentum is used to measure the quantity of motion in an object. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Momentum = mass * velocity

The principle of conservation of momentum states that momentum cannot be created or destroyed but  can be transferred. Therefore the momentum before and after an action is equal.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Let m be the mass of the diver, M be the mass of the raft, u be the initial velocity of the diver, U be the initial velocity of the raft, v be the final velocity of the diver and V be the final velocity of the raft.

m = 71 kg, M = 500 kg, v = 6 m/s

Initial both the raft and diver are at rest, hence u and U is zero, hence:

mu + MU = mv + MV

71(0) + 500(0) = 71(6) + 500(V)

0 = 426 + 500(V)

500(V) = -426

V = -426/500

V = -0.852 m/s

The tension in the horizontal cord is 30N. Find the weight of the object.
vazorg [7]
Making a drawing of the system, we will have two forces which are tension and the weight of the object. Balancing the forces present, we do as follows:

T = W
W = 30 N

Therefore, weight is equal to 30 N. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
