A student has a thin copper beaker containing 100 g of a pure metal in the solid state. The metal is at 215°C, its exact melting

temperature. If the student lights a Bunsen burner and holds it for a fraction of a second under the beaker, what will happen to the metal?

Answer:

The metal will melt but their will be no change in temperature.

Explanation:

The metal is at its melting temperature which means it is still in solid phase but have to cross the enthalpy of its condensation at this same temperature to convert into liquid phase.

<u>On supplying heat, the metal's temperature will not change as the heat will be required as enthalpy of condensation to melt the solid to liquid at the melting temperature.</u>

A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,
shusha [124]

Answer:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

U_{0}=K_{f}

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

An increase in the magnitude of velocity is??
bazaltina [42]
It means the speed of the object is increasing
and
there is a positive acceleration in the direction of the velocity
hence
there is a force acting on the object, in the direction of the velocity

Evaluate tan45/tan45
SIZIF [17.4K]

I'm not sure I completely understand the expression you want evaluated.

It looks like a fraction with the same exact thing in both the numerator and the denominator. A fraction like that always boils down to ' 1 '.
