The solution for this problem is:
Let u denote speed. 

Equating momentum before and after collision: 
= 0.060 * 40 = (1.5 + 0.060) u 
= 2.4 = 1.56 u
= 2.4 / 1.56 = 1.56 u / 1.56
= 1.6 m / s is the answer for this question. This is the speed after the collision.

A Carnot heat engine uses a hot reservoir consisting of a large amount of boiling water and a cold reservoir consisting of a lar
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

W= 4.89 KJ

Explanation:

Lets take

temperature of hot water T₁ = 100⁰C

T₁ = 373 K

Temperature of cold ice T₂= 0⁰C

T₂ = 273 K

The latent heat of ice LH= 334 KJ

The heat rejected by the engine Q= m .LH

Q₂= 0.04 x 334

Q₂= 13.36 KJ

Heat gain by engine = Q₁

For Carnot engine

Q_1=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}Q_2

Q_1=\dfrac{373}{273}\times 13.36

Q₁  = 18.25 KJ

The work W= Q₁  - Q₂

W= 18.25 - 13.36 KJ

W= 4.89 KJ

frez [133]

We need to consider for this exercise the concept Drag Force and Torque. The equation of Drag force is

F_D = c_D A \frac{\rho V^2}{2}

Where,

F_D = Drag Force

c_D = Drag coefficient

A = Area

\rho= Density

V = Velocity

Our values are given by,

c_D = 0.5 (That is proper of a cone-shape)

A = 9m^2

\rho = 1.2Kg/m^3

V = 6.5m/s

Part A ) Replacing our values,

F_D = 0.5*9*\frac{1.2*6.5^2}{2}

F_D = 114.075N

Part B ) To find the torque we apply the equation as follow,

\tau = F*d

\tau = (114.075N)(7)

\tau = 798.525N.m

What is dark energy? How is dark energy related to the theory of the multiverse?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

In the 1980s, astronomers turned to multiverse theory to explain the “luckily small” amount of dark energy in our universe. According to cosmologist's theories, this small amount of dark energy appeared to enable our universe to host life, while most universes in the multiverse couldn't.
