Answer:

1 ) Warm air

2) Cold air

3) Cold water

4) Steel

5) Hot molten

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we have to warn that the sound propagates more easily in denser media, in this way we have to identify the densities of the different materials.

Density cold air = 1.2 [kg/m^3]

Density warm air = 1.01 [kg/m^3]

Density cold water = 1000 [kg/m^3]

Density steel = 7500 [kg/m^3]

Density hot molten = 14100 [kg/m^3]

Therefore in order from the slowest to the fastest:

1 ) Warm air

2) Cold air

3) Cold water

4) Steel

5) Hot molten

A 20kg object acceleration by a force of 200N with coefficient of kineticfriction is 0.4 what is acceleration of the object?

Schach [20]

Answer:

Given - M = 20 kg

k = 0.4

F = 200 N

To find -  acceleration

Solution - 

F= kMA

200 = 0.4 * 20 * acceleration

200 = 8 * a

a = 8/200

a = 0.04 m s²

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coas

Pavel [41]

Complete question is:

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.

Answer:

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_A = 100 m

h_B = 150 m

v_B = 0 m/s

From law of conservation of energy,

the distance from point A to B is;

h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m

From Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2gh

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)

(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)

(V_A) = √981

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Two metals of equal mass with different heat capacities are subjected to the same amount of heat. which undergoes the smallest c

liraira [26]

So when two metals of equal mass but different heat capabilities are subjected to same heat quantity, the metal with higher heat capacity have the small temperature change. Heat supplied is determined as heat capacity of the metal times the change in temperature.
