A person speed walking down a street covers 20m in 5s. What is the speed of the individual? *

Physics

Answer:

4 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance moved with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed (S) = Distance (d) /time (t)

S = d/t

With the above formula, we can easily calculate the speed of the individual as follow:

Distance travalled (d) = 20 m

Time (t) = 5 secs

Speed (S) =?

S = d/t

S = 20/5

S = 4 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the individual is 4 m/s

PLEASE HELP ME :)
ddd [48]

A) 350 J

- The initial internal energy of the cup is

U_i = 230 J

- The final internal energy of the cup is

U_f = 580 J

According to the first law of thermodynamics:

U_f - U_i = Q+W

where

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done on the system

The work done on the system in this case is 0, so we can rewrite the equation as

U_f - U_i = Q

And so we find the heat transferred

Q=580 J - 230 J=350 J

B) IN the cup

Explanation:

in this situation, we see that the internal energy of the cup increases. The internal energy of an object/substance is proportional to its temperature, so it is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the object/substance. Therefore, in this case, the temperature (and the energy of the molecules of the substance) has increased: this means that heat has been transferred INTO the system from the environment (the heat came from the sun).

A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal
givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.
