What is the amount of heat, in Sl units, necessary to melt 1 lb of ice?

Physics
1 answer:
likoan [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Heat required to melt 1 lb of ice is 151.469 KJ

Explanation:

We have given mass of ice = 1 lb

We know that 1 lb = 0.4535 kg

Latent heat of fusion for ice =334 KJ/kg

Amount if heat for fusion of ice is given by

Q=mL, here m is mass of ice and L is latent heat of fusion

So heat Q=mL=0.4535\times 334=151.469kj

So heat required to melt 1 lb of ice is equal to 151.469 KJ

For the ballistic missile aimed to achieve the maximum range of 9500 km, what is the maximum altitude reached in the trajectory
liraira [26]

Explanation:

The range <em>R</em> of a projectile is given the equation

R = \dfrac{v_0^2}{g}\sin{2\theta}

The maximum range is achieved when \theta = 45° so our equation reduces to

R_{max} = \dfrac{v_0^2}{g}

We can solve for the initial velocity v_0 as follows:

v_0^2 = gR_{max} \Rightarrow v_0 = \sqrt{gR_{max}}

or

v_0 = \sqrt{(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(9.5×10^6\:\text{m})}

\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=9.6×10^3\:\text{m/s}

To find the maximum altitude H reached by the missile, we can use the equation

v_y^2 = v_{0y}^2 - 2gy = (v_0\sin{45°})^2 - 2gy

At its maximum height H, v_y = 0 so we can write

0 = (v_0\sin{45°})^2 - 2gH

or

H = \dfrac{(v_0\sin{45°})^2}{2g}

\:\:\:\:\:\:= \dfrac{[(9.6×10^3\:\text{m/s})\sin{45°}]^2}{2(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:\:\:= 2.4×10^6\:\text{m}

Answer: because she is pedalling at her maximum speed produced by the maximum force applied. At constant speed, acceleration is equal to zero.

Explanation:

Pedalling of bicycle involves application of force. The force applied produces circular motion to the tires which eventually transform into linear speed.

V = wr

Where V = linear speed

W = angular speed

r = radius.

Change in speed V will lead to acceleration or deceleration depending on increase or decrease in speed.

If she stops accelerating, then, she must have applied force that makes her pedalling at maximum speed. She is also maintaining this uniform (constant ) speed. After reaching her maximum speed.

At constant speed, acceleration = 0

Base on this explanation, even though she is still pedalling as fast as she can, which at constant speed, she will stop accelerating and her speed reaches a maximum value because she is pedalling at her applied maximum force.
