Answer:

a) 17.81 J/K

b) 33.325 J/K

Explanation:

The expression to use here is the following:

ΔS = Q/T

Where:

Q: heat released or absorbed

T: Temperature in K

Now, in order to do this, we need to gather the data. We know that the temperature in part a) is above the freezing temperature of water, which is 0 ° C or 273 K. and the mass of the ice cube is 14.6 g.

a) Using the water heat of fusion (Cause it's melting), we can calculated the heat released using the following expression:

Q = m * Lf

Lf = 333,000 J/kg

Solving for Q first we have:

Q = (14.6 / 1000) * 333,000

Q = 4,861.8 J

Now, the entropy change is:

ΔS = 4,861.8 / 273

ΔS = 17.81 J/K

b) In this part, we follow the same procedure than in part a) but using the water heat of boiling (Lv = 2,256,000 J/kg), the temperature of boiling which is 100 °C (or 373 K) and the mass of 5.51 g (0.00551 kg)

Calculating the heat:

Q = 0.00551 * 2,256,000 = 12,430.56 J

Now the entropy change:

ΔS = 12,430.56 / 373

ΔS = 33.325 J/K

Acceleration is a change in *speed* over time. In this case, the speed of the car increased by 90 km/hr in 6 s, giving it a rate of 90 km/hr/6s, or 15 km/hr/s. We’re asked for the acceleration in m/s^2, though, so we’ll need to do a few conversions to get our units straight.

There are 1000 m in 1 km, 60 min, or 60 * 60 = 3600 s in 1 hr, so we can change our rate to:

(15 x 1000)m/3600s/s, or (15 x 1000)m/3600 s^2

We can reduce this to:

(15 x 10)m/36 s^2 = 150 m/36 s^2

Which, dividing numerator and denominator by 36, gets us a final answer of roughly 4.17 m/s^2

The nose of an ultralight plane is pointed south, and its airspeed indicator shows 28 m/s . the plane is in a 18 m/s wind blowin
leva [86]
<span>Here I think you have to find the velocity in x and y components where x is east and y is north
 So as air speed indicator shows the negative speed in y component and adding it in
  air speed while multiplying with the direction component we will get the velocity as velocity is a vector quantity so direction is also required
 v=-28 m/s y + 18 m/s (- x/sqrt(2) - y/sqrt(2))
 solving
  v= -12.7 m/s x-40.7 m/s y
 if magnitude of velocity or speed is required then
  speed= sqrt(12.7^2 + 40.7^2)
 speed= 42.63 m/s
 if angle is asked
  angle = arctan (40.7/12.7)
 angle = 72.67 degrees south of west</span>

A bus is traveling with a uniform acceleration of 2.75 meters/second2. If the initial velocity of the bus is 16.5 meters/second,
Kaylis [27]
<span>The velocity will be 41.25 m/s2 after 9 seconds. To find velocity after a specific time period, multiply the acceleration (2.75) times the number of seconds (9) to receive 24.75 m/s, then add that to the initial velocity of 16.5 m/s. 24.75 + 16.5 = 41.25 m/s2.</span>

Physics Kinematics question
just olya [345]
An interesting problem, and thanks to the precise heading you put for the question.

We will assume zero air resistance.
We further assume that the angle with vertical is t=53.13 degrees, corresponding to sin(t)=0.8, and therefore cos(t)=0.6.

Given:
angle with vertical, t = 53.13 degrees
sin(t)=0.8; cos(t)=0.6;
air-borne time, T = 20 seconds
initial height, y0 = 800 m

Assume g = -9.81 m/s^2

initial velocity, v m/s (to be determined)

Solution:

(i) Determine initial velocity, v.
initial vertical velocity, vy = vsin(t)=0.8v
Using kinematics equation, 
S(T)=800+(vy)T+(1/2)aT^2 ....(1)  
Where S is height measured from ground.

substitute values in (1):  S(20)=800+(0.8v)T+(-9.81)T^2  =>
v=((1/2)9.81(20^2)-800)/(0.8(20))=72.625 m/s  for T=20 s

(ii) maximum height attained by the bomb
Differentiate (1) with respect to T, and equate to zero to find maximum
dS/dt=(vy)+aT=0 =>
Tmax=-(vy)/a = -0.8*72.625/(-9.81)= 5.9225 s

Maximum height,
Smax
=S(5.9225)
=800+(0.8*122.625)*(5.9225)+(1/2)(-9.81)(5.9225^2)
= 972.0494 m

(iii) Horizontal distance travelled by the bomb while air-borne
Horizontal velocity = vx = vcos(t) = 0.6v = 43.575 m/s
Horizontal distace travelled, Sx = (vx)T = 43.575*20 = 871.5 m

(iv) Velocity of the bomb when it strikes ground
vertical velocity with respect to time
V(T) =vy+aT...................(2)
Substitute values, vy=58.1 m/s, a=-9.81 m/s^2
V(T) = 58.130 + (-9.81)T => 
V(20)=58.130-(9.81)(20) = -138.1 m/s (vertical velocity at strike)

vx = 43.575 m/s (horizontal at strike)
resultant velocity = sqrt(43.575^2+(-138.1)^2) = 144.812 m/s  (magnitude)
in direction theta = atan(43.575,138.1) 
= 17.5 degrees with the vertical, downward and forward. (direction)
