Answer:
Explanation:
1 )
We shall apply conservation of momentum law to solve the problem.
mv = ( M +m) V , m and M are masses of small and large object , v is the velocity of small object before collision and V is the velocity of both the objects together after collision .
.5 x .2 = (1.5 + .5)V
V = .05 m /s
2 ) We shall use formula for velocity of object after elastic collision as follows
v₁ =
m₁ and m₂ are masses of first and second object u₁ and u₂ are their initial velocity and v₁ and v₂ are their final velocity.
Putting the values
=
= - .66 m /s
Since the sign is negative so it will be in opposite direction .
Answer:
B. Steam burns the skin worse than hot water because the latent heat of vaporization is released as well.
Explanation:
It is given that both steam and the boiling water when in contact with the skin cools down from 100 to 34 degrees Celsius.
For any substance of mass m, the heat required to change the temperature by is (S.I. unit = Joules).
where C, the specific heat capacity is the same and a constant for both the condensed steam and the boiling water.
But, there is a "hidden" energy (heat) released by the steam called latent heat
(given by mL, L = specific latent heat) which allows the phase transition (gas to liquid). While both of them are at the same temperature, their energy (heat) is different, which is why steam causes burns worse than boiling water
Once energy from the Sun gets to Earth, several things can happen to it:
Energy can be scattered or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols are dust, soot, sulfates and nitric oxides. When aerosols absorb energy, the atmosphere becomes warmer. When aerosols scatter energy, the atmosphere is cooled.
Short wavelengths are absorbed by ozone in the stratosphere.
Clouds may act to either reflect energy out to space or absorb energy, trapping it in the atmosphere.
The land and water at Earth's surface may act to either reflect energy or absorb it. Light colored surfaces are more likely to reflect sunlight, while dark surfaces typically absorb the energy, warming the planet.
Albedo is the percentage of the Sun's energy that is reflected back by a surface. Light colored surfaces like ice have a high albedo, while dark colored surfaces tend to have a lower albedo. The buildings and pavement in cities have such a low albedo that cities have been called "heat islands" because they absorb so much energy that they warm up.
Answer:
rad/s
Explanation:
The wave function is:
where :
k = wave number
x = position of a point on the wave
= angular frequency
t = time
What is another way to express the angular frequency (omega)
Angular frequency (omega) can be express as :
rad/s ( i.e one repetition that it takes to repeats itself)
Answer:
Centripetal force acting on the body = 9.47 N
Explanation:
Mass of body, m = 2 kg
Radius, r = 3 m
It makes one revolution in 5 seconds.
Period, T = 5 s
Centripetal force, F = mrω²
F = 2 x 3 x 1.256² = 9.47 N
Centripetal force acting on the body = 9.47 N
