Answer:

The distance is 35.0 m

Explanation:

- Distance corresponds to the amount of space travelled by an object, regardless of the direction of the motion. Therefore, if an object moves several times into different directions, the distance can be simply calculated by adding the distance covered during each motion.

In this case, the ball moves a first time by d_1 = 30.0 m and a second time by d_2 = 5.0 m, so the total distance is

d=d_1 +d_2 = 30.0 m+5.0 m=35.0 m

- Displacement corresponds instead to the spatial difference between the starting point and the final point of the motion: since the ball here travelled 30.0 m south and 5.0 m north, we must take into account the opposite directions in the two motions, by adding a negative sign. So, the displacement of the ball is

D=d_1 -d_2 = 30.0 m-5.0 m=25.0 m (in the south direction)

A ball is falling after rolling off a tall roof<br> The ball has what type of energy.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Linear and rotational Kinetic Energy + Gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

The ball rolls off a tall roof and starts falling.

Let us first consider the potential energy or more specifically gravitational potential energy (mgh; m = mass of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height of the roof). This energy comes because someone or something had to do work to take the ball to the top of the roof against the force of gravity. The potential energy is naturally maximum at the top and minimum when the ball finally reaches the ground.

Now, the ball starts to roll and falls off the roof. It shall continue rotating because of inertia (Newton's first law). This contributes to the rotational kinetic energy (\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2; I=moment of inertia of the ball & \omega = angular velocity).

Finally comes the linear kinetic energy or simply, kinetic energy (\frac{1}{2}mv^2) which is caused due to the velocity v of the ball.

Which of the folltrue or false: the ratio of heat exchange in conduction is independent of exposure time.owing techniques uses e
Sliva [168]

True conditions

Efficiency of Heat Exchanger are as below:

the heat exchange process between two fluids with different temperatures using solid walls occurs in various engineering applications. The tool to achieve this exchange is a heat exchanger. Some applications like air conditioning, power generation, waste heat recovery, and chemical processing use this device.

The basis of the work of a heat exchanger is that the hot fluid enters the heat exchanger at temperature T1 and its heat capacity is Chot. Also, the cold fluid with the heat capacity of Ccold enters temperature t1; in the meantime, the hot fluid loses its heat, and its temperature drops to T2. It delivers heat to the cold fluid to increase its temperature to t2 and leave the heat exchanger at this temperature.
