A student drops two metallic objects into a 120-g steel container holding 150 g of water at 25°C. One object is a 206-g cube of

copper that is initially at 88°C, and the other is a chunk of aluminum that is initially at 5.0°C. To the surprise of the student, the water reaches a final temperature of 25°C, precisely where it started. What is the mass of the aluminum chunk?

Answer:

Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g

Explanation:

For an isolated system as given the energy lost and gains in the system will be zero therefore sum of all transfer of energy will be zero,as the temperature will also remain same

A specific heat formula is given as                  

Energy Change = Mass of liquid x Specific Heat Capacity x Change in temperature

                                       Q =  m×c×ΔT

                        Heat gain by aluminium + heat lost by copper  = 0    (1)

For Aluminium:

      Q = m\times0.897\frac{J}{g.k}\times(25-5)

      Q = m x 17.94 joule

For Copper:

Q= 206g\times0.385\frac{J}{g.k} \times(88-25)

       Q= 4996.53 Joule

from eq 1

     m x 17.94 = 4996.53

     mass of aluminium = \frac{4996.53}{17.94} g

    Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g

A two-stage rocket moves in space at a constant velocity of +4300 m/s. The two stages are then separated by a small explosive ch
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

 v_{1f} = +3,394 103 m / s

Explanation:

We will solve this problem with the concept of the moment. Let's start by defining the system that is formed by the complete rocket before and after the explosions, bone with the two stages, for this system the moment is conserved.

The data they give is the mass of the first stage m1 = 2100 kg, the mass of the second stage m2 = 1160 kg and its final velocity v2f = +5940 m / s and the speed of the rocket before the explosion vo = +4300 m / s

The moment before the explosion

      p₀ = (m₁ + m₂) v₀

After the explosion

      pf = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ v_{2f}

     p₀ = [texpv_{f}[/tex]

     (m₁ + m₂) v₀ = m₁ v_{1f} + m₂ v_{2f}

Let's calculate the final speed (v1f) of the first stage

     v_{1f} = ((m₁ + m₂) v₀ - m₂ v_{2f}) / m₁

     

     v_{1f} = ((2100 +1160) 4300 - 1160 5940) / 2100

     v_{1f} = (14,018 10 6 - 6,890 106) / 2100

     v_{1f} = 7,128 106/2100

     v_{1f} = +3,394 103 m / s

come the same direction of the final stage, but more slowly

A playground merry-go-round of radius 2.00 m has a moment of inertia I = 275 kg · m2 and is rotating about a frictionless vertic
ryzh [129]

Answer:

0.2932 rad/s

Explanation:

r = Radius = 2 m

I_i = Initial angular momentum = 275\ kgm^2

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity = 14 rev/min

I_f = Final angular momentum

\omega_f = Final angular velocity

Here the angular momentum of the system is conserved

I_i\omega_i=I_f\omega_f\\\Rightarrow 275\times 14\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}=(275+275(2)^2)\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{275\times 14\times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}}{275+275(2)^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=0.2932\ rad/s

The final angular velocity is 0.2932 rad/s

Which is an example of an unstructured activity that promotes resistance training?
aleksandrvk [35]
One possible unstructured activity that promotes resistance training would be climbing playground equimpent - A. 

This is by nature a unstructured ctivity. Furthermore, it promotes resistance training because you're forced to move and pull and push yourself.
