The potential energy of a watermelon is 15.0 J. The watermelon is 3.0 m high. What is the mass of the watermelon?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

m = 0.51[kg]

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 15 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 3 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\15=m*9.8*3\\m = 0.51[kg]

Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height
noname [10]

Answer:

a)   I = 2279.5 N s , b) F = 3.80 10⁵ N, c)   I = 3125.5 N s  and d)  F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Explanation:

The impulse is equal to the variation in the amount of movement.

    I =∫ F dt = Δp

     I = mv_{f} - m v₀

Let's calculate the final speed using kinematics, as the cable breaks the initial speed is zero

   v_{f}² = V₀² - 2g y

   v_{f}² = 0 - 2 9.8 30.0

   v_{f} = √588

   v_{f} = 24.25 m/s

a) We calculate the impulse

   I = 94 24.25 - 0

   I = 2279.5 N s

b) Let's join the other expression of the impulse to calculate the average force

   I = F t

  F = I / t

  F = 2279.5 / 6 10⁻³

  F = 3.80 10⁵ N

just before the crash the passenger jumps up with v = 8 m / s, let's take the moments of interest just when the elevator arrives with a speed of 24.25m/s down and as an end point the jump up to vf = 8 m / n

c)     I = m v_{f} - m v₀

       I = 94 8 - 94 (-24.25)

       I = 3125.5 N s

d)     F = I / t

       F = 3125.5 / 6 10⁻³

       F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Dont know whether its b or c. (cuz for sure it transports energy)
masha68 [24]

Sound waves are a type of classical waves and so they transport only energy without transporting matter through the medium.

A body initially at 100°C cools to 60°C in minutes and to 40°C. The temperature of body at the end of 15 minutes will be​
zhuklara [117]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A body initially at a all 100 degree centigarde cools to 60 degree centigarde in 5 minutes and to 40 degree centigarde in 10 minutes . What is the temperature of surrounding? What will be the temperature in 15 minutes?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From Newton's law of cooling;

θ1 - θ2/t = K(θ1 + θ2/2 - θo]

Where;

θ1 and θ2 are initial and final temperatures

θo is the temperature of the surroundings

K is the constant

t is the time taken

Hence;

100 - 60/5 = K(100 + 60/2 - θo)

100 - 40/10 = K(100 + 40/2 - θo)

8= (80 - θo)K -----(1)

6= (70 - θo)K -----(2)

Diving (1) by (2)

8/6 = (80 - θo)/(70 - θo)

8(70 - θo) = 6(80 - θo)

560 - 8θo = 480 - θo

560 - 480 = -θo + 8θo

80 = 7θo

θo = 11.4°

Again from Newton's law of cooling;

θ = θo + Ce^-kt

Where;

t= 0, θ = 60° and θo = 11.4°

60 = 11.4 + C e^-K(0)

60 - 11.4 = C

C= 48.6°

To obtain K

40 = 11.4 + 48.6e^-10k

40 -11.4 = 48.6e^-10k

28.6/48.6 = e^-10k

0.5585 = e^-10k

-10k = ln0.5585

k= ln0.5585/-10

K= 0.0583

Hence, the temperature in 15 minutes;

θ= 11.4 + 48.6e^(-0.0583 × 15)

θ= 31.7°
