Displacement is the distance and direction from the start point to the end point. Our runner finished exactly where he started. His displacement is zero.
Answer:
1)a. It is constant the whole time the ball is in free-fall.
2)b. = 14 m/s
3) e. = 19.6 m/s
Explanation:
1) given that the only force acting on the ball is gravity, gravity acts along the vertical axis. Since no other force acts on the ball then the horizontal velocity will remain constant all through the flight since there is no horizontal force acting on the ball.
2) speed = distance/time
horizontal distance = 56m
Time = 4 seconds
Speed = 56m/4s = 14m/s
3) acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m/s^2
Initial vertical velocity = u
Final vertical velocity = v = -u
Using the law of motion;
v = u + at
a = acceleration = -g = -9.8m/s^2
t = time of flight = 4
Substituting the values;
-u = u - 4(9.8)
-2u = -4(9.8)
u = -4(9.8)/-2
u = 2(9.8) = 19.6 m/s
Initial vertical velocity = u = 19.6 m/s
Heat required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum is 28.7 kJ.
<h3>What is the energy required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum?</h3>
The heat energy required to melt 0.05 kg of aluminum is obtained from the heat capacity of aluminum and the melting point of aluminum.
The formula to be used is given below:
- Heat required = mass * heat capacity * temperature change
Assuming the aluminum sheet was at room temperature initially.;
Room temperature = 25 °C
Melting point of aluminum = 660.3 °C
Temperature difference = (660.3 - 25) = 635.3 903
Heat capacity of aluminum = 903 J/kg/903
Heat required = 0.05 * 903 * 635.3
Heat required = 28.7 kJ
In conclusion, the heat required is obtained from the heat change aluminum and the mass of the aluminum melted.
