A hiker, caught in a rainstorm might absorb 1 liter of water in her clothing. if it is windy so that this amount of water is eva

Water evaporates at 100⁰C

So change in temperature = 100-20 = 80⁰C

Amount of water to be evaporated = 1 liter = 1L*1kg/liter = 1 kg

Specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram ⁰C = 4.186 joule/gram =4186 J/kg

So heat required E = mcΔT = 1 * 4186 *80= 334880 J =334.88 kJ

So amount of heat require to evaporate water = 334.88 kJ

When a 0.622 kg basketball hits the floor, its velocity changes from 4.23 m/s down to 3.85 m/s up. If the ball was in contact wi
SVEN [57.7K]

when the ball hits the floor and bounces back the momentum of the ball changes.

the rate of change of momentum is the force exerted by the floor on it.

the equation for the force exerted is

f = rate of change of momentum

f = \frac{mv - mu}{t}

v is the final velocity which is - 3.85 m/s

u is initial velocity - 4.23 m/s

m = 0.622 kg

time is the impact time of the ball in contact with the floor - 0.0266 s

substituting the values

f = \frac{0.622 kg (3.85 m/s - (-)4.23 m/s)}{0.0266}

since the ball is going down, we take that as negative and ball going upwards as positive.

f = 189 N

the force exerted from the floor is 189 N

A circuit component with a high resistance will have a low electric current.
Zepler [3.9K]
You haven't said what 'high' resistance or 'low' current means, so there's way not enough info to nail the statement as true or false. The most precise answer is "certainly could be but not necessarily". Anyway, the current in the circuit depends on BOTH the resistance AND the voltage. So without knowing the voltage too, you can't say anything about the current.

A car's velocity as a function of time is given by vx(t)=α+βt2, where α=3.00m/s and β=0.100m/s3.
Mice21 [21]

1) Analyze the equation

Vₓ = α + β t²

Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 t²

That is a quadratic equation, so the graph is a parabola.

2) Therefore, take into account that the main points to draw a parabola are:

i) vertex

ii) concavity

iii) y-intercepts

iv) x - intercepts

Also, for all graphs you need the domain and the range.

3) Find the y-intercept (t = 0)

t = 0 ⇒ Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00

4) Find the x-intercepts (Vₓ = 0)

Vₓ = 0 ⇒ 0 = 3.00 + 0.100 t²

⇒ t² = - 3.00 / 0.100 = -30.0. Since t² cannot be negative, there is not x-intercepts.

5) Concavity

Since, the coefficient of t² is positive, the parabola open upwards.

6) Vertex

It is the local minimum of the equation. You can find it by the first derivative

Vₓ' = 2×0.100 t = 0 ⇒ t = 0

Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 3.00 m/s

⇒ vertex = (0,3.00)

7) The domain is given t ∈ [0,5.00]

8) You can also build a table with several points in the domain

t =0; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (0)² = 0

t = 1; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (1)² = 3.10

t = 2; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (2)² = 3.40

t = 3; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (3)² = 3.90

t = 4; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (4)² = 4.60

t = 5; Vₓ = 3.00 + 0.100 (5)² = 5.50

9) Range: Vₓ ∈ [ 3.00, 5.50]

10) All that information permits you to put several points in a coordinate sysment and sketch the same graph as the shown in the figure attached.
