The initial velocity (its speed before falling off) is approximately 1.95 m/s
Answer:
Before giving an injection, a nurse dabs some alcohol onto the patient`s arm. This makes the patient`s skin feels cold. Explain Why ?
<em> Evaporative cooling makes this to be possible</em>
Explanation:
The concept
For a liquid to evaporate, there must be a breakdown of the bond between the molecules of the liquid. These bonds are broken when the molecules gain heat energy. So basically evaporation occurs when the molecules of the substance gain energy in form of heat.
Our Scenario
Just like the way our body excretes sweat on a sunny day, alcohol takes energy from the skin to evaporate. The bond holding the molecules of alcohol breaks faster due to its low boiling point and this account why it evaporates faster. The sudden evaporation of alcohol when dabbed on the skin results in quick utilization of heat energy making the skin feel cold for some time.
The utilization of heat energy from the skin results in evaporation cooling which makes the skin feel colder.
Answer:C
Explanation:
Partially submerged block along with vessel is accelerated upwards .
Initially the block weight is supported by buoyant force such that it is in equilibrium.
when the system start accelerating upwards then the effective gravity will be
g+a where a is the acceleration of the system.
so only net gravity is increased so block will not ascend or descend.
Mathematically


where
density of liquid
V=volume of object inside the water
Explanation:
A boat at sea is being moved by the ocean current at 5 metres/minute directly to the east.
At the same time, it is being moved directly to the north at 3 metres/minute by a strong wind.
We need to find the magnitude and direction of the boat's overall velocity.
As both velocities are moving perpendicular to each other. The resultant velocity is given by :

For direction,

Hence, this is the required solutin.
