Answer: This is because water has a higher Specific Heat Capacity than air.
Explanation:
The specific heat capacity of an object measures how much heat will be required to change its temperature.
Water has a higher specific heat capacity than air, so the temperature of the water will remain fairly constant even though the air surrounding the water is experience temperature changes.
Since air has a lower Specific Heat Capacity than water, heat from the sun will readily heat it up in comparison to water.
Answer:
dr/dt = -2 cm/s.
Explanation:
The volume of a cone is given by:
(1)
- r is the radius
- h is the height
Let's take the derivative with respect to time in each side of (1).
(2)
We know that:
- dh/dt = 10 cm / s (rate increasing of height)
- dV/dt = 0 (constant volume means no variation with respect of time)
- r = 4 cm
- h = 10 cm
We can calculate how fast is the radius changing using the above information.
Therefore dr/dt will be:

The minus signs means that r is decreasing.

The motion described here is a projectile motion which is characterized by an arc-shaped direction of motion. There are already derived equations for this type of motions as listed:
Hmax = v₀²sin²θ/2g
t = 2v₀sinθ/g
y = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)
where
Hmax = max. height reached by the object in a projectile motion
θ=angle of inclination
v₀= initial velocity
t = time of flight
x = horizontal range
y = vertical height
Part A.
Hmax = v₀²sin²θ/2g = (30²)(sin 33°)²/2(9.81)
Hmax = 13.61 m
Part B. In this part, we solve the velocity when it almost reaches the ground. Approximately, this is equal to y = 28.61 m and x = 31.91 m. In projectile motion, it is important to note that there are two component vectors of motion: the vertical and horizontal components. In the horizontal component, the motion is in constant speed or zero acceleration. On the other hand, the vertical component is acting under constant acceleration. So, we use the two equations of rectilinear motion:
y = v₀t + 1/2 at²
28.61 = 30(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t²)
t = 0.839 seconds
a = (v₁-v₀)/t
9.81 = (v₁ - 30)/0.839
v₁ = 38.23 m/s
Part C.
y = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)
Hmax + 15 = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)
13.61 + 15 = xtan33° + (9.81)x²/[2(30)²(cos33°)²]
Solving using a scientific calculator,
x = 31.91 m
Answer: static electricity
Explanation:
When the plastic ruler is rubbed, friction opposes the motion and causes the transfer of electron from one surface to another such that plastic becomes negatively charged. When ruler is brought nearer to the paper, it induces the positive charge in the piece of paper.
Answer:
A.) 4.81 seconds
B.) 44.6 m/s
Explanation:
He begins his dive by jumping up with a velocity of 5 (m/s).
Let us first calculate the maximum height reached by using third equation of motion
V^2 = U^2 - 2gH
At maximum height, V = 0
0 = 5^5 - 2 × 9.8H
19.6H = 25
H = 25 /19.6
H = 1.28 m
The time taken for the diver to reach the water from the maximum height can be calculated by using second equation of motion.
Where height h = 1.28 + 100 = 101.28 m
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
As the diver drop from maximum height, U = 0
101.28 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2
4.9t^2 = 101.28
t^2 = 101.28/4.9
t^2 = 20.669
t = sqrt ( 20.669)
t = 4.55s
As the diver jumped up, the time taken to reach the maximum height will be
Time = 1.28 / 5 = 0.256
The time taken for him to hit the water below will be 0.256 + 4.55 = 4.81 seconds
B.) Velocity right before he hits the water will be
V^2 = U^2 + 2gH
But U = 0
V^2 = 2 × 9.8 × 101.28
V^2 = 1985.09
V = 44.6 m/s
