I'm assuming it was to keep the data consistent? The further you are from a heat source the less heat will get to you as the temperature tries to reach equilibrium and the waves start to spread out, so you should keep everything the same distance to get consistent results. I don't have any information so this is just my assumption

A 13.0-g wad of sticky clay is hurled horizontally at a 110-g wooden block initially at rest on a horizontal surface. The clay s
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

v_{ic}=92.53 m/s

Explanation:

We need to apply conservation of momentum and energy to solve this problem.

<u>Conservation of momentum</u>

p_{i}=p_{f}

m_{c}v_{ic}=(m_{c}+m_{w})V (1)

  • m(c) is the mass of stick clay
  • m(w) is the mass of the wooden block
  • v(ic) is the initial velocity of clay
  • V is the final velocity of the system clay plus wood.

<u>Conservation of total energy</u>

The change in kinetic energy is equal to the change in internal energy, in our case it would be the energy loss due to the friction force. Let's recall the definition of work, it is the dot product between force and displacement, Therefore:

\Delta E=W

\frac{1}{2}(m_{c}+m_{w})V^{2}=F_{friction}*d

\frac{1}{2}(m_{c}+m_{w})V^{2}=\mu (m_{c}+m_{w})gd

We can find V from this equation:

V=\sqrt{2\mu gd}=\sqrt{2*0.65*9.81*7.5}=9.78 m/s

Now, let's put V into the equation (1) and find v(ic)

v_{ic}=\frac{(m_{c}+m_{w})V}{m_{c}}=\frac{123*9.78}{13}=92.53 m/s

I hope it helps you!

A person uses 750 kcal on a long walk calculate the energy used for the walk in kilojoules
guapka [62]
Basically, this problem asks you to convert kilocalories (kcal) to kilojoules (kJ). Both are units of energy. To convert kcal to kJ, the equivalence is: 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ. Through dimensional analysis, the solution is as follows:

750 kcal * 4.184 kJ/1 kcal = 3,138 kJ
