An object is released from rest at time t = 0 and falls through the air, which exerts a resistive force such that the accelerati

on a of the object is given by a = g bv, where v is the object's speed and b is a constant. If limiting cases for large and small values of t are considered, which of the following is a possible expression for the speed of the object as an explicit function of time? A) v = g(1-e^-bt)/b B) v = (ge^bt)/b C) v = (g+a)t/b

Answer:

A) \frac{g}{b}(1-e^{-bt})

Explanation:

Since a = g - bv,

We can substitute a = dv/dt into the equation.

Then, the equation will be like dv/dt = g - bv.

So we got first order differential equation.

As known, v = 0 at t = 0, and v = g/b at t = ∞.

Since \frac{dv}{dt}= g - bv = b( \frac{g}{b} - v) ⇒ \frac{dv}{ \frac{g}{b} - v}= bdt

So take the integral of both side.

- ln (\frac{g}{b} - v) = bt + C

Since for t=0, v = 0 ⇒ C =- ln (\frac{g}{b})

v = \frac{g}{b} + e^{-bt-ln(\frac{g}{b})} = \frac{g}{b}- \frac{g}{b}e^{-bt} = \frac{g}{b}(1-e^{-bt})

Answer:

The final temperature of both objects is 400 K

Explanation:

The quantity of heat transferred per unit mass is given by;

Q = cΔT

where;

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the change in temperature

The heat transferred by the  object A per unit mass is given by;

Q(A) = caΔT

where;

ca is the specific heat capacity of object A

The heat transferred by the  object B per unit mass is given by;

Q(B) = cbΔT

where;

cb is the specific heat capacity of object B

The heat lost by object B is equal to heat gained by object A

Q(A) = -Q(B)

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

The final temperature of the two objects is given by

T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b}

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b} \\\\T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + 2C_aT_b}{C_a + 2C_a}\\\\T_2 = \frac{c_a(T_a + 2T_b)}{3C_a} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_a + 2T_b}{3}\\\\T_2 = \frac{300 + (2*450)}{3}\\\\T_2 = 400 \ K

Therefore, the final temperature of both objects is 400 K.
