The Specific Heat Capacity of silver is 230 J/kgK, melting point is 961.8 C so the difference is 941.8K. Now we simply do q=230J/kgK*16.5kg*941.8K and that is 3 574 131 J

Answer:

  v = 10 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the relationship between the speed of a wave and its frequency and wavelength

         v = λ f

the wavelength is the distance at which the wave repeats, in this case the distance between the two ridges λ = 48 m.

the frequency is the number of oscillations per unit of time, it is also the inverse of the period which is the time in a complete oscillation, in this case they give us the time of half a period, ½ T = 2.4 s

   T = 4.8 s

the frequency is

        f = 1 / T

        f = 1 / 4.8

        f = 0.2083 Hz

let's calculate

        v = 0.2083 48

        v = 10 m / s

A student on an amusement park ride moves in a circular path with a radius of 3.5 meters once every 8.9 seconds. What is the ave
Ulleksa [173]
Distance traveled by him = circumference of that circular path = 2πr = 2π(3.5)
= 7π = 7×3.14 = 21.98 m
time = 8.9 s  [ Given ]

Now, Average speed = distance / time
s = 21.98 / 8.9
s = 2.46 m/s

Hope this helps!

A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it st
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

<em> B.0</em>

Explanation:

Change in momentum: This is defined as the product of mass and change in velocity of a body. or it can be defined as the product of force and time of a body. The fundamental unit of change in momentum is kg.m/s

Change in momentum = M(V-U)......................... Equation 1

where M = mass of the ball, V = final velocity of the ball, U = initial velocity of the ball.

Let: M = m kg and V = U = v m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1

Change in momentum = m(v-v)

Change in momentum = m(0)

Change in momentum = 0 kg.m/s

<em>Therefore the momentum of the ball has not changed.</em>

<em>The right option is B.0</em>
