A hot-air balloon is rising straight up with a speed of 4.6 m/s. a ballast bag is released from rest relative to the balloon at
kherson [118]

The time taken by the ballast bag to reach the ground is 2.18 s

The ballast bag at rest with respect to the balloon has the upward velocity (u) of 4.6 m/s , which is the velocity of the balloon. When it is dropped from the balloon, its motion is similar to an object thrown upwards with an initial velocity <em>u </em>and it falls under the acceleration due to gravity<em> g.</em>

Taking the upward direction as positive and the downward direction as negative, the following equation of motion may be used.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

The bag makes a net displacement <em>s</em> of 13.4 m downwards, hence

s=-13.4 m

Its initial velocity is

u=+4.6 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity acts downwards and hence it is negative.

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Use the values in the equation of motion and write an equation for t.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2 \\ -13.4=4.6t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2\\ 4.9t^2-4.6t-13.4=0

Solving the equation for t and taking only the positive value for t,

t=2.18 s

Calculate the heat flux (in W/m2) through a sheet of a metal 11-mm thick if the temperatures at the two faces are 350 and 110 ˚C
Masja [62]

q = 1156363.6W/m².

To calculate the heat flux per unit area (W/m²) of a sheet made of metal:

q = -k(ΔT/Δx)

q = -k[(T₂ - T₁)/Δx]

Where, k is the thermal conductivity of the metal, ΔT is the temperature difference and Δx is the thick.

With Δx = 11 mm = 11x10⁻³m, T₂ = 350°C and T₁ = 110°C, and k = 53.0 W/m-K:

q = -53.0W/m-K[(110°C - 350°C)/11x10⁻³m

q = 1156363.6W/m²

Move the chemistry book across the physics book again. study the thermometer to determine whether there’s a change in the physic
jekas [21]

Heat is always transferred through the movement of matter in the convection mode of heat transmission.

<h3>What is heat transfer ?</h3>

Heat transfer is the movement of heat from one solid or liquid item to another. Always, heat moves from one body with a greater temperature to one with a lower temperature. To put it another way, heat always transfers from a hotter body to a cooler body.

  • Heat energy is transferred through the mechanism of conduction when nearby atoms or molecules collide. In solids and liquids, where particles are more closely spaced, conduction happens more easily than in gases, where particles are more widely spaced.

  • Here we can say that heat is transfer when there is movement between two books and hence there is change in temperature.

A pipe originally has a radius of 1.25m. It narrows down to a radius of 0.55m. If the original force in the big pipe is 72N, wha
Gemiola [76]

Use direct proportionality: If 1.25 m = 72 N, then 0.55 m = y

0.55 m × 72 = 39.6.

39.6÷1,25 gives you your answer which is 31.68 N.
