Answer:
a) 7200 ft/s²
b) 140 ft
c) 3.7 s
Explanation:
(a) Average acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.
a_avg = Δv / Δt
We need to find what velocity the puck reached after it was hit by the hockey player.
We know it reached 40 ft/s after traveling 90 feet over rough ice at an acceleration of -20 ft/s². Therefore:
v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)
(40 ft/s)² = v₀² + 2(-20 ft/s²)(100 ft − 10 ft)
v₀² = 5200 ft²/s²
v₀ = 20√13 ft/s
So the average acceleration impacted to the puck as it is struck is:
a_avg = (20√13 ft/s − 0 ft/s) / (0.01 s)
a_avg = 2000√13 ft/s²
a_avg ≈ 7200 ft/s²
(b) The distance the puck travels before stopping is:
v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)
(0 ft/s)² = (5200 ft²/s²) + 2(-20 ft/s²)(x − 10 ft)
x = 140 ft
(c) The time the puck takes to travel 10 ft without friction is:
t = (10 ft) / (20√13 ft/s)
t = (√13)/26 s
The time the puck travels over the rough ice is:
v = at + v₀
(0 ft/s) = (-20 ft/s²) t + (20√13 ft/s)
t = √13 s
So the total time is:
t = (√13)/26 s + √13 s
t = (27√13)/26 s
t ≈ 3.7 s
Creatine phosphate can supply the energy needs of a working muscle at a very high rate, but only for about 8–10 seconds.
Answer:
2274 J/kg ∙ K
Explanation:
The complete statement of the question is :
A lab assistant drops a 400.0-g piece of metal at 100.0°C into a 100.0-g aluminum cup containing 500.0 g of water at 15 °C. In a few minutes, she measures the final temperature of the system to be 40.0°C. What is the specific heat of the 400.0-g piece of metal, assuming that no significant heat is exchanged with the surroundings? The specific heat of this aluminum is 900.0 J/kg ∙ K and that of water is 4186 J/kg ∙ K.
= mass of metal = 400 g
= specific heat of metal = ?
= initial temperature of metal = 100 °C
= mass of aluminum cup = 100 g
= specific heat of aluminum cup = 900.0 J/kg ∙ K
= initial temperature of aluminum cup = 15 °C
= mass of water = 500 g
= specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg ∙ K
= initial temperature of water = 15 °C
= Final equilibrium temperature = 40 °C
Using conservation of energy
heat lost by metal = heat gained by aluminum cup + heat gained by water
Answer: Rods
Explanation:
The rod cells in the retina are the reason we are able to see at night and in dim light. They exist on the edges of the retina which is why they are also very useful for the peripheral vision of a human.
Rod cells number over 90 million in the eyes and although very useful for seeing in dimmer light, they are not very useful for color vision which is why humans see less colors in the dark.
A). No. Condensation happens when you take heat out of a gas.
b). No. I'm not sure what transpiration is.
<u>c). Yes.</u> Evaporation happens when you add heat to a liquid.
d). No. Sublimation sometimes happens when you add heat to a solid.
