Answer:

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Explanation:

Heat can be described as the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Which is expressed mathematically as;

H = MCΔT

Where;

H is the quantity of heat in a body, measured in Joules

M is the mass of the body, measured in kg

C is the specific heat capacity of the body, J/kg.K

ΔT is change in temperature or temperature difference.

So, heat energy in any system flows from a hotter region to a colder region due to temperature difference.

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Each bat can produce different frequencies of ultrasound. Explain why this is useful if there are many bats hunting together.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer: Although low frequency sound travels further than high-frequency sound, calls at higher frequencies give the bats more detailed information--such as size, range, position, speed and direction of a prey's flight. Thus, these sounds are used more often.

Can a particle with constant speed be accelarating?<br>what if it has constant velocity?

Olin [163]

Explanation:

it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing.

When an object is moving with constant velocity, it does not change direction nor speed and therefore is represented as a straight line when graphed as distance over time.

A 850-kg sports car accelerates from rest to 95 km/h in 6.8 s .

swat32

From the calculations, the power expended is 43650 W.

<h3>What is the power expended?</h3>

Now we can find the acceleration from;

v = u + at

u = 0 m/s

v = 95 km/h or 26.4 m/s

t = 6.8 s

a = ?

Now

v = at

a = v/t

a = 26.4 m/s/ 6.8 s

a = 3.88 m/s^2

Force = ma = 850-kg * 3.88 m/s^2 = 3298 N

The distance covered is obtained from;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = 2as

s = v^2/2a

s = (26.4)^2/2 * 3.88

s = 696.96/7.76

s = 90 m

Now;

Work = Fs

Work = 3298 N * 90 m = 296820 J

Power = 296820 J/ 6.8 s

= 43650 W

A body of mass 2.7 kg makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but w

kramer

Answer:

1.35 kg

2.67 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

$m_{1}$ = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

$m_{2}$ = mass of second body = ?

$v_{1i}$ = initial velocity of the first body before collision = $v$

$v_{2i}$ = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

$v_{1f}$ = final velocity of the first body after collision =

using conservation of momentum equation

$m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) v + m_{2} (0) = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} ) + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) (\frac{2v}{3} ) = m_{2} v_{2f}\\v_{2f} = \frac{1.8v}{m_{2}}$

Using conservation of kinetic energy

$m_{1} v_{1i}^{2}+ m_{2} v_{2i}^{2} = m_{1} v_{1f}^{2} + m_{2} v_{2f}^{2} \\(2.7) v^{2} + m_{2} (0)^{2} = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} )^{2} + m_{2} (\frac{1.8v}{m_{2}})^{2} \\(2.7) = (0.3) + \frac{3.24}{m_{2}}\\m_{2} = 1.35$
