Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}

where C=heat\ capacity

Q=heat\ interaction

\Delta T=change\ in\ Temperature

Explanation:

- Newton's first law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in uniform motion) remains at rest (or in uniform motion) unless acted upon an unbalanced force

In this situation, we can apply Newton's first law to the keys of the keyboard that are not hit by the fingers of the man. In fact, as no force act on the keys, they remain at rest.

- Newton's second law of motion:

"The acceleration experienced by an object is proportional to the net force exerted on the object; mathematically:

F=ma

where F is the net force, m is the mass of the object, and a its acceleration"

In this case, we can apply Newton's second law to the keys of the keyboard that are hit by the man: in fact, as they are hit, they experience a downward force, and therefore they experience a downward acceleration.

"Newton's third law of motion:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

Here We can apply Newton's third law to the pair of objects finger-key: in fact, as the finger apply a force on the key (action force), then the key exerts a force back on the finger (reaction force), equal and opposite.

A tennis player hits a ball 2.0 m above the ground.
tangare [24]

Explanation:

initial height, yo = 2 m

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

angle of projection,θ = 5 degree

distance of net = 7 m

height of net = 1 m

Let it covers a vertical distance y in time t .

Use Second equation of motion for vertical motion

As it hits the ground in time t, so put y = 0

Taking positive sign, t = 0.84 s

The ball travels a horizontal distance x in time t

X = 20 Cos5 x t

X =  16.76 m

As this distance is more than the distance of net, so it clears the net.

Let t' be the time taken to travel a horizontal distance equal to the distance of net

7 = 20 cos5 x t'

t' = 0.35 s

Let the vertical distance traveled by the ball in time t' is y'.

So,

y' = 2.008 m

So, it clears the net which is 1 m high.

It clears the net by a vertical distance of 2.008 - 1 = 1.008 m and horizontal distance 16.76 - 7 = 9.76 m

your welcome, and have a great day.
