<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Velocity is vector quantity.So it needs direction in addition to speed.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion. </em>

If the mass of an object increases, how is its acceleration affected, assuming the net force acting on the object remains the sa
vovikov84 [41]
Based on Newton's second law of motion, the net force applied to an object is equal to the product of the mass of the object and the acceleration it experiences. That is,
  
          F = ma

If we are to assume that the net force is constant and that the mass is increased, the acceleration should therefore decrease in order to make constant the value at the right-hand side of the equation.

A 52.0-kg person, running horizontally with a velocity of +3.63 m/s, jumps onto a 15.2-kg sled that is initially at rest. (a) Ig
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

Explanation:

Given that:

M = mass of person = 52 kg

m = mass of sled = 15.2 kg

U = initial velocity of person = 3.63 m/s

u = initial velocity of sled = 0 m/s

After collision, the person and the sled would move with the same velocity V.

a) According to law of momentum conservation:

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

MU + mu = (M + m)V

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}

Substituting values:

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}=\frac{52(3.63)+15.2(0)}{52+15.2} =2.81m/s

The velocity of the sled and person as they move away is 2.81 m/s

b) acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

d = 30 m

Using the formula:

V^2=2\mu(gd)\\\mu=\frac{V^2}{2gd} \\\mu=\frac{2.81^2}{2*9.8*30} =0.0134

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

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
