The impulse given to a ball with mass of 4 kg is 16 N s. If the ball starts from rest, what is its final velocity?

1 answer:

7 0

The formula for impulse is F*(t₂-t₁)=m*(v₂-v₁), where F is the force, t is time, m is mass and v is velocity.

In our case m*(v₂-v₁)=16 N s, m=4 kg, v₁=0 and t₁=0.

m*(v₂-0)=16 N s, we solve for v₂:

4*v₂= 16

v₂=16/4

v₂=4 m/s

So the final velocity of the ball is v₂=4 m/s.

Answer:

There is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the change of voumen in a substance depending on the temperature.

The formula that describes this thermal expansion process is given by:

$\Delta V = \beta V_0 \Delta T$

Where,

$\Delta V =$ Change in volume

$V_0 =$ Initial Volume

$\Delta T =$ Change in temperature

$\beta =$ coefficient of volume expansion (Coefficient of copper and of the liquid for this case)

There are two types of materials in the container, liquid and copper, so we have to change the amount of Total Volume that would be subject to,

$\Delta V_T = \Delta V_l - \Delta V_c$

Where,

$\Delta V_l$ = Change in the volume of liquid

$\Delta V_c$ = Change in the volume of copper

Then replacing with the previous equation we have:

$\Delta V = \beta_l V_0 \Delta T- \beta_c V_0 \Delta T$

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

Our values are given as,

Thermal expansion coefficient for copper and the liquid to 20°C is

$\beta_c = 51*10^{-6}/\°C$

$\beta_l = 400*10^{-6}/\°C$

$V_0 = 16L$

$\Delta T = (95\°C-10\°C)$

Replacing we have that,

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

$\Delta V = (400*10^{-6}/\°C-51*10^{-6}/\°C)(16L)(95\°C-10\°C)$

$\Delta V = 0.475L$

Therefore there is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

How do you tell a stars life expectancy based on an hr diagram?

e-lub [12.9K]

The X-axis of the H-R Diagram indicates the star's surface temperature in degrees Kelvin. The Y-axis, on the other hand, indicates luminosity, or brightness.

Main sequence refers to a roughly diagonal, slightly S-curved line stretching between the upper-left and lower-right corners on which main sequence stars chart. They maintain a predictable relationship between luminosity and temperature: the brighter, the hotter. The upper-right quadrant of the H-R diagram is home to newly discovered red giants while the lower-left quadrant of the H-R Diagram belongs almost exclusively to white dwarfs.

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The explorer should travel to reach base camp to 5.02 Km at 4.28° south of due west.

Explanation:

Using trigonometric function like Sen(Ф), Cos(Ф) and Tan(Ф) we can get distance and direction that the explorer should travel to reach base camp. When we discompound the vector $X = 7.8*Cos(50) = 5.01 Km$ y $y = 7.8 * Sen (50) - 5.6 = 5.975 - 5.6 (Km) = 0.375 (Km)$ so that $Tan (\alpha ) = \frac{0.375}{5.01} = 4.28$ ; $\alpha = Arctang (\frac{0.375}{5.01}) = 4.28 (degree)$ to get how far we use Pythagorean theorem so $R^{2} = x^{2}+y^{2}$ so that $R=\sqrt{0.375^{2}+5.01^{2} } =5.02 (Km)$
