A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to
katovenus [111]
The correct answer should be c.The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

If the temperature drops that means that the molecules are coming together. If the temperature rises then it means that the molecules are spreading. If the kinetic energy falls down that means that they are slower which means that they are cooler.

Average velocity = (x( 2.08 ) - x ( 0 )) / ( 2.08 s - 0 s )
x ( 2.08 ) = 1.42 * 2.08² - 0.05 * 2.08³ =
= 1.42 * 4.3264 - 0.443456 = 6.143484 - 0.443456 ≈ 5.7 m
v = ( 5.7 m - 0 m) / (2.08 s - 0 s ) = 5.7 / 2.08 m/s = 27.4 m/s

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h =  541.2 J

m =  541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.
