He would try to enter as the tide is rising, and leave as the tide is falling. Those things happen at all different times of day during a month.

a pool ball leaves a 0.60-meter high table with an initial high table with an initial horizontal velocity of 2.4m/s. what is the

inysia [295]

Answer:

0.84 m

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

Δy = 0.60 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

0.60 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.35 s

Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 2.4 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.35 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (2.4 m/s) (0.35 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.35 s)²

Δx = 0.84 m

How much heat is needed to melt 13.74 kg of silver that is initially at 20°C?

salantis [7]

Answer:

$Q = 4.63 \times 10^6 J$

Explanation:

As we know that melting point of silver is

T = 961.8 degree C

Latent heat of fusion of silver is given as

L = 111 kJ/kg

specific heat capacity of silver is given as

$s = 240 J/kg C$

now we will have

$Q = ms\Delta T + mL$

$\Delta T = 961.8 - 20$

$\Delta T = 941.8 degree C$

now from above equation

$Q = (13.74)(240)(941.8) + (13.74)(111 \times 10^3)$

$Q = 3.1 \times 10^6 + 1.53 \times 10^6$

$Q = 4.63 \times 10^6 J$

A rock with density 1900 kg/m3 is suspended from the lower end of a light string. When the rock is in air, the tension in the st

wel

Answer:

the tension T2 when the rock is completely immersed is T2 = 29.05 N

Explanation:

from Newton's second law

F= m*a

where F= force , m= mass , a= acceleration

when the rock is suspended ,a=0 since it is at rest. Then

T1 - m*g = 0 , T1= tension when suspended in air , g= gravity

assuming constant density of the rock

m= ρ rock *V , where ρ rock = density of the rock , V= volume

thus

T1= m*g = ρ rock *g*V

V= T1/(ρ rock *g)

when the rock is submerged in oil , it receives an upward force that equals the weight of the volume of displaced oil (V displaced). Since it is completely submerged the volume displaced is the volume of the rock V=Vdisplaced

When the rock is at rest , then

F= m*a=0

T2 + ρ oil *g*V displaced - ρ rock *g*V =0

T2 = ρ rock *g*V - ρ oil *g*V = g*V (ρ rock - ρ oil)

T2 = g*V (ρ rock - ρ oil) = T1/(ρ rock *g) *g * (ρ rock - ρ oil)

T2 = T1 * (ρ rock - ρ oil)/ρ rock

replacing values

T2 = 48 N * (1900 kg/m3- 750 kg/m3)/ 1900 kg/m3 = 29.05 N

T2 = 29.05 N

the ratio of the energy per second radiated by the filament of a lamp at 250k to that radiated at 2000k, assuming the filament i

Naily [24]

Answer:

(a) $\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}$

(b) P = 0.816 Watt

Explanation:

(a)

The power radiated from a black body is given by Stefan Boltzman Law:

$P = \sigma AT^4$

where,

P = Energy Radiated per Second = ?

σ = stefan boltzman constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m².K⁴

T = Absolute Temperature

So the ratio of power at 250 K to the power at 2000 K is given as:

$\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=\frac{\sigma A(250)^4}{\sigma A(2000)^4}\\\\\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}$

(b)

Now, for 90% radiator blackbody at 2000 K:

$P = (0.9)(5.67\ x\ 10^{-8}\ W/m^2.K^4)(1\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m^2)(2000\ K)^4$
