According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. They are just transferred from one system to another. To obey this law, the energy of the substances inside the container must be equal to the substance added to it. The energy is in the form of heat. There can be two types of heat energy: latent heat and sensible heat. Sensible heat is energy added or removed when a substance changes in temperature. Latent heat is the energy added or removed at a constant temperature during a phase change. Since there is no mention of phase change, we assume the heat involved here is sensible heat. The equation for sensible heat is:
H = mCpΔT
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cp is the specific heat of a certain type of material or substance
ΔT is the change in temperature.
So the law of conservation of heat tells that:
Sensible heat of Z + Sensible heat of container = Sensible heat of X
Since we have no idea what these substances are, there is no way of knowing the Cp. We can't proceed with the calculations. So, we can only assume that in the duration of 15 minutes, the whole system achieves equilibrium. Therefore, the equilibrium temperature of the system is equal to 32°C. The answer is C.
Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation. Which tells us that the energy of a body will always be the same regardless of where it is located. For this case we have two points, point A and point B. Point A is located at the top at 120 [m] and point B is in the middle of the cliff at 60 [m].

The important thing about this problem is to identify the types of energy at each point. Let's take the reference level of potential energy at a height of zero meters. That is, at this point the potential energy is zero.
So at point A we have potential energy and since a velocity of 18 [m/s] is printed, we additionally have kinetic energy.

At Point B the rock is still moving downward, therefore we have kinetic energy and since it is 60 [m] with respect to the reference level we have potential energy.

Therefore we will have the following equation:
![(6.5*9.81*120)+(0.5*6.5*18^{2} )=(6.5*9.81*60)+(0.5*6.5*v_{B}^{2} )\\3.25*v_{B}^{2} =4878.9\\v_{B}=\sqrt{1501.2}\\v_{B}=38.75[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%286.5%2A9.81%2A120%29%2B%280.5%2A6.5%2A18%5E%7B2%7D%20%29%3D%286.5%2A9.81%2A60%29%2B%280.5%2A6.5%2Av_%7BB%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%29%5C%5C3.25%2Av_%7BB%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%3D4878.9%5C%5Cv_%7BB%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B1501.2%7D%5C%5Cv_%7BB%7D%3D38.75%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
The kinetic energy can be easily calculated by means of the kinetic energy equation.
![KE_{B}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v_{B}^{2}\\KE_{B}=0.5*6.5*(38.75)^{2}\\KE_{B}=4878.9[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=KE_%7BB%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av_%7BB%7D%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5CKE_%7BB%7D%3D0.5%2A6.5%2A%2838.75%29%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5CKE_%7BB%7D%3D4878.9%5BJ%5D)
In order to calculate the velocity at the bottom of the cliff where the reference level of potential energy (potential energy equal to zero) is located, we must pose the same equation, with the exception that at the new point there is only kinetic energy.
![E_{A}=E_{C}\\6.5*9.81*120+(0.5*9.81*18^{2} )=0.5*6.5*v_{C}^{2} \\v_{c}^{2} =\sqrt{2843.39}\\v_{c}=53.32[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7BA%7D%3DE_%7BC%7D%5C%5C6.5%2A9.81%2A120%2B%280.5%2A9.81%2A18%5E%7B2%7D%20%29%3D0.5%2A6.5%2Av_%7BC%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Cv_%7Bc%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%3D%5Csqrt%7B2843.39%7D%5C%5Cv_%7Bc%7D%3D53.32%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
Answer:
20 m/s westward
Explanation:
Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:
is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)
is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy
Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).
