Answer:

About 6.26m/s

Explanation:

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Divide both sides by mass:

gh=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2

Since the point of equality of kinetic and potential energy will be halfway down the cliff, height will be 4/2=2 meters.

(9.8)(2)=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2 \\\\v^2=39.4 \\\\v\approx 6.26m/s

Hope this helps!

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

32 °C.

Explanation:

Hola.

En este caso, debemos entender que la relación entre el calor y la temperatura viene dada por:

Q=mCp\Delta T

De este modo, dado que estamos estudiando la misma sustancia (agua) con masa constante, la relación calor-temperatura es lineal y directamente proporcional, por tal razón, si se duplica el calor suministrado, la temperatura también será duplicada, de modo que:

\Delta T_{nuevo}=2*16\°C\\\\\Delta T_{nuevo}=32\°C

¡Saludos!

A ball rolls for 8 seconds and travels 24 meters. How fast was it traveling?
belka [17]

Answer:

The speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The time period of the ball, t = 8 s

The distance the ball rolled, d = 24 m

The velocity of an object is defined as the object's displacement to the time taken. The formula for the velocity is,

                              v = d / t      m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 24 / 8

                                  = 3 m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s
