Yes it is, cause someone could slip and accidentally stab themselves

No, because on the hard wood, it is usually sort of grippy so you would not slip, and on carpet the carpet absorbs the water so it is inside and around the carpet not visible.

Minchanka [31]

Answer: The energy absorbed by the reaction from the water is 996 Joules.

Explanation:

Energy absorbed by the reaction or energy lost by the water to the reaction,Q.

Mass of the the reaction ,m = 60 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.15 J\g ^oC

Change is temperature= $\Delta T=19^oC-23^oC=-4^oC$

$Q=mc\Delta T=60 g\times 4.15 J\g ^oC\times (-4^oC)=-996 Joules$

Negative sigh indicates that energy was given by the water to the reaction.

The energy absorbed by the reaction from the water is 996 Joules.

A man works on a striaght road from his home to market 2.5km away dwith a speed of 5km/h.Finding the market closed, he instantly

umka21 [38]

Answer:

5.625km/h

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance between home and market, d=2.5 km

Speed, v1=5km/h

Speed, v2=7.5 km/h

We have to find the average speed of the man over the interval of time 0 to 40min.

Time, $t=\frac{distance}{speed}$

Using the formula

$t_1=\frac{2.5}{5}=0.5 h=0.5\times 60=30 min$

1 hour =60 min

$t_2=\frac{2.5}{7.5}=\frac{1}{3}hour=\frac{60}{3}=20min$

Distance traveled by man in 10 min with speed 7.5 km/h= $\frac{2.5}{20}\times 10=2.5/2km$

Therefore,

Total distance covered=2.5+2.5/2=3.75 km

Time=40 min=40/60=2/3 hour

Average speed= $\frac{total\;distance}{total\;time}$

Average speed= $\frac{3.75}{2/3}=5.625km/h$

Kinetic energy varies jointly as the mass and the square of the velocity. A mass of 1515 grams and velocity of 77 centimeters pe

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The second kinetic energy is 162 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, $m_1=15\ g$

Velocity, $v_1=7\ cm/s$

Kinetic energy, $K_1=147\ ergs$

Mass, $m_2=10\ g$

Velocity, $v_2=9\ cm/s$

We need to find kinetic energy $K_2$ . Kinetic energy is given by :

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

So,

$\dfrac{K_1}{K_2}=\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}\times \dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}\\\\K_2=\dfrac{K_1}{\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}\times \dfrac{v_1^2}{v_2^2}}\\\\K_2=\dfrac{147}{\dfrac{15}{10}\times \dfrac{7^2}{9^2}}\\\\K_2=162\ J$

So, the second kinetic energy is 162 J.
