How would you determine the volume of an irregular shaped object.

Archy [21]

You can use the displacement method or the eureka can so basically in the displacement can what you have to do is to put some water into a measuring cylinder and measure its volume before adding the irregular shaped object and then measuring the level of water which had been displaced and then eureka can you can check online

A coffee filter of mass 1.2 grams dropped from a height of 1 m reaches the ground with a speed of 0.8 m/s. How much kinetic ener

iren [92.7K]

Answer: The energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

Here, the potential energy of the coffee filter is getting converted into kinetic energy of the coffee filter and some energy is lost by it which is gained by the air molecules in the form of kinetic energy.

So, calculating the potential energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

P = mgh

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$ (Conversion used: 1 kg = 1000 g)

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

h = height of coffee filter = 1 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$P=1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times 9.8m/s^2\times 1m\\\\P=1.176\times 10^{-2}J$

Calculating the kinetic energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$

v = speed of coffee filter = 0.8 m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times (0.8m/s)^2\\\\E=3.84\times 10^{-4}J$

As, energy lost by coffee filter = energy gained by air molecules

So, energy lost by coffee filter = Potential energy - Kinetic energy

Energy lost by coffee filter = $(1.176\times 10^{-2})-(3.84\times 10^{-4})=0.011J$

Hence, the energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

Differentiate between velocity ratio and relative velocity in two points ??

stellarik [79]

The difference between velocity and relative velocity is that velocity is measured with respect to a reference point which is relative to a different point. While relative velocity is measured in a frame where an object is either at rest or moving with respect to the absolute frame.

The second ionization energy is the energy required to remove the _______ Electron after a __________ one has been removed.

Sindrei [870]

The second ionization energy is the energy required to remove the second electron after a valence one has been removed.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

For an element, the first ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy required to remove one electron from the outermost valence shell of a neutral atom. Removing one electron increases the number of protons, making it a 1+ ion.

The nucleus (protons) has more bonding to the electrons with negative charge and thus more energy is required if another electron needs to be removed. This higher energy required to remove second electron from a 1+ ion (after the first one has been removed) is termed as the second ionization energy. Second ionization energy leads to formation of a 2+ ion. Similarly, third ionization energy is higher than second ionization energy.
