Which describes the process of conduction?

1 answer:

3 0

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The process of conduction is described by the heat energy is transferred from the land to the air by direct contact. Conduction is the process of heat transfer that happens through the collisions between molecules.

Answer:

The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.

Explanation:

The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation: $v_f=v_0+a*t$ , where $v_f$ is the final velocity, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $a$ the acceleration, and $t$ is the time during such acceleration is applied.

Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case: $t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}=\frac{0\frac{m}{s}-282\frac{m}{s} }{-201\frac{m}{s^2} }=1.40s$ , where $v_f=0\frac{m}{s}$ because the sled is totally stopped, $v_0=282\frac{m}{s}$ is the velocity of the sled before braking and, $a=-201\frac{m}{s^2}$ is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.

In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration: $x_f-x_0=v_0*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2$ , where $x_f-x_0$ is the distance traveled, $v_0$ is the initial velocity, $t$ the time of the process and, $a$ is the acceleration of the process.

Then for this case the relationship becomes: $x_f-x_0=282\frac{m}{s} *1.40s+\frac{1}{2}(-201\frac{m}{s})*(1.40s)^2=94.22m$ .

<u>Note that the acceleration is negative because is a braking process.</u>

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The net force on the potatoes is given by:

F= 52 - mgSintheta

F= 52- (2×9.8× Sin70°)

F = 52 -18.4

F= 33.58N

Using Newton's 2nd law

F = ma

a=F/m = 33.58/ 2 = 16.79m/s^2

Using the equation of motion:

V^2= u^2 + 2as

V^2 = 0 + 2× 16.79 x2

V^2 = 67.16

V=sqrt(68.16)

V= 8.195m/s This is the exit velocity of the potatoes

Kinetic energy, K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE= 1/2 × 2 × 8.195^2

KE = 67.16J

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

t_total = 23.757 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise.

Let's start by calculating the distance and has to reach the limit speed of

v = 18.8 m / s

v = v₀ + a t₁

the elevator starts with zero speed

v = a t₁

t₁ = v / a

t₁ = 18.8 / 2.40

t₁ = 7.833 s

in this time he runs

y₁ = v₀ t₁ + ½ a t₁²

y₁ = ½ a t₁²

y₁ = ½ 2.40 7.833²

y₁ = 73.627 m

This is the time and distance traveled until reaching the maximum speed, which will be constant throughout the rest of the trip.

x_total = x₁ + x₂

x₂ = x_total - x₁

x₂ = 373 - 73,627

x₂ = 299.373 m

this distance travels at constant speed,

v = x₂ / t₂

t₂ = x₂ / v

t₂ = 299.373 / 18.8

t₂ = 15.92 s

therefore the total travel time is

t_total = t₁ + t₂

t_total = 7.833 + 15.92

t_total = 23.757 s
