Answer:

<em>Zoe caught a lower ratio of catfish to trout on the second day of her fishing trip</em>

Explanation:

<u>Proportions and Ratios</u>

To compare two quantities we can perform them some 'test' operations like subtraction or division. If we subtract the first quantity from the second quantity, the difference can be positive if the second is greater, negative if the first is greater, or zero if they are equal.

A similar situation comes if we divide the last by the first. If the ratio (division) is greater than one, then the last quantity is greater than the first if it's less than one, the first is greater, and if it's exactly one, they are equal.

Zoe caught 9 catfish and 6 trout on her first day. It produces a ratio of 9/6=1.5 catfish to trout relation. The second day she caught 17 catfish and 13 trout, which gives us a ratio of 17/13=1.3 catfish to trout.

Based on the ratios we can say Zoe caught a lower ratio of catfish to trout on the second day of her fishing trip

A spherical balloon is being inflated and the radius of theballoon is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/s.(A) Express the radius (r)
goblinko [34]

Answer:

A.) r = 2t

B.) V = 33.5t^3

Explanation:

Given that a spherical balloon is being inflated and the radius of the balloon is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/s

A) Express the radius (r) of the balloon as a function of the time (t).

Since the rate = 2 cm/s that is,

Rate = radius/ time

Therefore,

2 = r/t

Make r the subject of formula

r = 2t

(B) If V is the volume of the balloon as a function of the radius, find V or and interpret it.

Let assume that the balloon is spherical. Volume of a sphere is;

V = 4/3πr^3

Substitute r = 2t into the formula

V = 4/3π(2t)^3

V = 4/3π × 8t^3

V = 32/3 × πt^3

V = 33.5t^3

A ball of mass 4.5 kg moving with speed of 2.2 m/s in the +x-direction hits a wall and bounces back with the same speed in the x
Levart [38]

Answer:

The change of the momentum of the ball is -19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}

Explanation:

We should find \varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=\overrightarrow{p_{f}}-\overrightarrow{p_{i}} (1)with \overrightarrow{p_{i}} the initial momentum and \overrightarrow{p_{f}} the final momentum. Linear momentum is defined as \overrightarrow{p}=m\overrightarrow{v}, using that on (1):

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m \overrightarrow{v_{f}}-m \overrightarrow{v_{i}} (2)

It's important to note that momentum and velocity are vectors and direction matters, so if +x direction is the direction towards the wall and the -x direction away the wall \overrightarrow{v_{i}}=+2.2\, \frac{m}{s} and \overrightarrow{v_{f}}=-2.2\, \frac{m}{s} so (2) becomes:

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=m(-2.2- (+2.2))=-(4.5)(4.4)

\varDelta\overrightarrow{p}=-19.8\, \frac{mkg}{s}

Radiant heat makes it impossible to stand close to a hot lava flow. Calculate the rate of heat loss by radiation from 1.00 m^2 o
VARVARA [1.3K]

The rate of heat loss by radiation is equal to <u>-207.5kW</u>

Why?

To calculate the heat loss rate (or heat transfer rate) by radiation, from the given situation, we can use the following formula:

HeatLossRate=E*S*A*((T_{cold})^{4} -(T_{hot})^{4} )

Where,

E, is the emissivity of the body.

A, is the area of the body.

T, are the temperatures.

S, is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, which is equal to:

5.67x10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2}*K^{-4} }

Now, before substitute the given information, we must remember that the given formula works with absolute temperatures (Kelvin), so,  we need to convert the given values of temperature from Celsius degrees to Kelvin.

We know that:

K=Celsius+273.15

So, converting we have:

T_{1}=1110\°C+273.15=1383.15K\\\\T_{2}=36.2\°C+273.15=309.35K

Therefore, substituting the given information and calculating, we have:

HeatLossRate=E*S*A*((T_{cold})^{4} -(T_{hot})^{4} )

HeatLossRate=1*5.67x10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2}*K^{-4} }*1m^{2} *((309.35K)^{4} -(1383.15})^{4} )\\\\HeatLossRate=5.67x10^{-8}\frac{W}{K^{-4} }*(95697.42K^{4} -3.66x10^{12}K^{4})\\ \\HeatLossRate=5.67x10^{-8}\frac{W}{K^{-4} }*(-3.66x10^{12} K^{4})=-207522W=-207.5kW

Hence, we have that the rate of heat loss is equal to -207.5kW.
