Answer:

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C

Explanation:

We have the equation for energy

      E = mcΔT

Here m = 55 g = 0.055 kg

ΔT = T - 27.5

Specific heat capacity of aluminum = 921.096 J/kg.K

E = 725 J

Substituting

     E = mcΔT

     725 = 0.055 x 921.096 x (T - 27.5)

     T - 27.5 = 14.31

     T = 41.81 ° C = 41.8 °C

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C

Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all __________ waves because they __________.
algol [13]

Answer:

a. mechanical; require a medium to travel through

Explanation:

Longitudinal, transverse and surface waves are types of mechanical waves. For example, within the longitudinal waves are the sound waves, which needs a medium to propagate like the air. This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum.

And an example of a transverse wave is the waves that form in the water when a rock is thrown (ripples), these waves need a medium (the water) to propagate.

On the other hand, electromagnetic waves such as light waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is why we can see the light of distant stars because their light travels through the vacuum until it reaches us.

So, the answer is:

Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all mechanical waves because they require a medium to travel through .

A tennis ball is released from a height of 4.0 m above the floor. After its third bounce off the floor, it reaches a height of 1
diamong [38]

Answer:

The percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %

Explanation:

Given data,

The tennis ball is released from the height, h = 4 m

After the third bounce it reaches height, h' = 183 cm

                                                                       = 1.83 m

The total mechanical energy of the ball is equal to its maximum P.E

                                      E = mgh

                                          = 4 mg

At height h', the P.E becomes

                                      E' = mgh'

                                           = 1.83 mg

The percentage of change in energy the ball retains to its original energy,

                                 \Delta E\%=\frac{1.83mg}{4mg}\times100\%

                                  ΔE % = 45 %

The ball retains only the 45% of its original energy after 3 bounces.

Therefore, the energy retains in each bounce is

                                   ∛ (0.45) = 0.77

The ball retains only the 77% of its original energy.

The energy lost to the floor is,

                                E = 100 - 77

                                   = 23 %

Hence, the percentage of its mechanical energy does the ball lose with each bounce is 23 %

Virty [35]

There is a total of 6 half lives that need to take place.


ONE HALF LIFE = 200

TWO HALF LIFES = 100

THREE HALF LIFES  = 50

FOUR HALF LIFES = 25

FIVE HALF LIFES = 12.5

SIX HALF LIFES = 6.25


The answer is 6.25g
