v2 = ?

m1 = 10kg

m2 = 70kg

v1 = 4m/s

E1 = E2

E1 = 1/2 * m1 * v1^2 = 1/2 * 10kg * 4m/s^2 = 80J

E2 = 1/2 * m2 * v2^2 = 80 J

v2 = √(E2/(2 * m2)) = √(80J/(2 * 70kg)) = about 0.76m/s

Answer:

V=0.5m/s

Explanation:

A large 10.kg medicine ball is caught by a 70.kg student on the track team. If the ball was moving at 4.0 m/s, how fast will the student be moving after catching the ball?

taking it stepwisely

This problem can be solved with the knowledge of momentum.

the total momentum before collision must be equal to the total momentum after collusion.

This is an inelastic collision because the object and the boy will stick together after catching the boy.

Therefore

m1u1+m2u2= (m1+m2)V

m1=mass of the medicine ball 10kg

m2= mass of the student,70kg

U1=4m/s

u2=0m/s

V=common velocity after the student catches the medicine ball

10*4+70*0= (10+70)V

40=80V

V=40/80

V=0.5m/s

The student will move with a speed of 0.5m/s after catching the ball.

Often times we think about insulation, we think about keeping cold items cold, such as drinks in an ice chest or the cool temper
Burka [1]

Answer:

So, insulation essentially works by creating a sort of barrier between the hot and the cold object. This barrier helps to reduce heat transfer by either reflecting the thermal radiation or by decreasing thermal conduction and convection from one object to the other.

What is the volume of a rock with a density of 3.00 g/cm3 and a mass of 600g?
Mademuasel [1]
The equation of D = m/V

Where D = density
m = mass
and V = volume

We are solving for V, so with the manipulation of variables we multiply V on both sides giving us 
V(D) = m 
now we divide D on both sides giving us
V = m/D 

We know our mass which is 600g and our density is 3.00 g/cm^3
so
V = 600g/3.00g/cm^3 = 200cm^3  or 200mL

a cubic centimeter (cm^3) is one of the units for volume. It's exactly like mL. 1 cm^3 = 1 mL
 
If you wish to change it to L, you'd have to convert.

A calorimeter directly measures ______ in order to calculate ______. (1 point)
Aneli [31]

The complete sentence is:

A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.

In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and \Delta T is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
