A projectile is launched straight up. From launch to landing back down takes 8s.

1 answer:

6 0

39.2 m/s is the launch velocity.
This will make the velocity zero after 4 seconds, and then 32.9m/s after 8 seconds as it lands back down.

Two 84.5 g ice cubes are dropped into 30 g of water in a glass. If the water is initially at a temperature of 50 C and if the ic

Setler [38]

Answer:

final temperature will be 0 degree C

Total amount of ice will be

$m_{ice} = 182 g$

total amount of water

$m_{water} = 17 g$

Explanation:

After thermal equilibrium is achieved we can say that

Heat given by water = heat absorbed by ice cubes

so we will have

Heat given by water to reach 0 degree C

$Q_1 = m_1s_1 \Delta T_1$

$Q_1 = 0.030(4186)(50 - 0)$

$Q_1 = 6279 J$

heat absorbed by ice cubes to reach 0 degree

$Q_2 = m_2 s_2 \Delta T_2$

$Q_2 = (0.169)(2100)(30)$

$Q_2 = 10647 J$

so we will have

$Q_2 > Q_1$

so here we can say that few amount of water will freeze here to balance the heat

$10647 - 6279 = mL$

$m = \frac{10647 - 6279}{335000}$

$m = 13 g$

so final temperature will be 0 degree C

Total amount of ice will be

$m_{ice} = 84.5 + 84.5 + 13$

$m_{ice} = 182 g$

total amount of water

$m_{water} = 30 - 13$

$m_{water} = 17 g$

How would the terminal velocity of a piece of tissue paper compare to the terminal velocity of a rock?

matrenka [14]

Answer: Rock require larger drag force and to achieve it rock need to move at a very high terminal velocity.

Explanation: Terminal velocity is defined as the final velocity attained by an object falling under the gravity. At this moment weight is balanced by the air resistance or drag force and body falls with zero acceleration i.e. with a constant velocity.

Case 1: Terminal velocity of a piece of tissue paper.

The weight of tissue paper is very less and it experiences an air resistance while falling downward under the effect of gravity.

Downward gravitational force, F = mg

Upward air resistance or friction or drag force will be $f_{1}$
