Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 70.0 kg) and Rebecca (mass 45.0 kg), are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while a

t rest, is struck by Rebecca, who is moving at 14.0 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 8.00 m/s at an angle of 55.1 degrees from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink.
(a) What is the magnitude of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
(b) What is the direction of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
(c) What is the change in the total kinetic energy of the two skaters as a result of the collision?

Answer:

a) v=7.32m/s

b) \alpha =-35º

c) ΔK=-1094.62J

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the collision between Daniel and Rebecca is elastic which means they do not stick together

So, If we analyze the collision we got

p_{1x}=p_{2x}

To simplify the problem, lets name D for Daniel and R for Rebecca

a) p_{D1x}+p_{R1x}=p_{D2x}+p_{R2x}

Since Daniel's initial velocity is 0

m_{R}v_{Rx}=m_{D}v_{D2x}+m_{R}v_{R2x}

v_{D2x}=\frac{m_{R}*v_{R1x}-m_{R}*v_{R2x}}{m_{D}}

v_{D2x}=\frac{(45kg)(14m/s)-(45kg)(8cos(55.1)m/s)}{(70kg)}=6m/s

Now, lets analyze the movement in the vertical direction

p_{1y}=p_{2y}

Since p_{1y}=0

0=m_{D}v_{D2y}+m_{R}v_{R2y}

v_{D2y}=-\frac{m_{R}v_{2Ry}}{m_{D}}=-\frac{(45kg)(8sin(55.1)m/s)}{(70kg)}=-4.21m/s

Now, we can find the magnitude of Daniel's velocity after de collision

v_{D}=\sqrt{(6m/s)^2+(-4.21m/s)^2}=7.32m/s

b) To know whats the direction of Daniel's velocity we need to solve the arctan of the angle

\alpha =tan^{-1}(\frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-4.21}{6})=-35º

c) The change in the total kinetic energy is:

ΔK=K_{2}-K_{1}

ΔK=\frac{1}{2}[(45kg)(8m/s)^2+(70kg)(7.32m/s)^2-(45kg)(14m/s)^2]=-1094.62J

That means that the kinetic energy decreases

A 1.0-cm-tall object is 13 cm in front of a converging lens that has a 40 cm focal length.
kicyunya [14]

A) Image position: -19.3 cm

B) Image height: 1.5 cm, upright

Explanation:

A)

In order to calculate the image position, we can use the lens equation:

\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}

where

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

In this problem, we have:

p = 13 cm (object distance)

f = 40 cm (focal length, positive for a converging lens)

So the image distance is

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{40}-\frac{1}{13}=-0.0519\\q=\frac{1}{-0.0519}=-19.3 cm

The negative sign means that the image is virtual.

B)

In order to calculate the image height, we use the magnification equation:

\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}

where

y' is the image height

y is the object height

In this problem, we have:

y = 1.0 cm (object height)

p = 13 cm

q = -19.3 cm

Therefore, the image heigth is

y'=-\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(-19.3)(1.0)}{13}=1.5 cm

And the positive sign means the image is upright.

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371
arsen [322]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g.K

T_1 = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

T_2 = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K

q=81719J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}

\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.

25.16 what is the reaction product of acetic acid and ethylamine at room temperature?
Ne4ueva [31]

The ammonium salt of acetic acid is the reaction product of acetic acid and ethylamine at room temperature

<h3 /><h3>What is acetic acid ?</h3>

Acetic acid is a monofunctional carboxylic acid containing two carbon atoms. It acts as a protein solvent,  food acidity regulator, antibacterial food preservative. It is a conjugate acid of an acetate.

Acetic acid is used in the production  of acetic anhydride, cellulose acetate, vinyl acetate monomer, acetic ester, chloroacetic acid, plastics, dyes, insecticides, photographic chemicals, and rubber. Other commercial uses include the production of vitamins, antibiotics, hormones,  organic chemicals, and as a food additive. Typical concentrations of acetic acid found naturally in foods are 700 to 1200 milligrams/kg (mg/kg) in wine, up to 860 mg/kg in aged cheeses, and 2.8 mg/kg in aged cheeses. fresh orange juice.

If no heat is lost to the surroundings, how much heat must be added to raise the temperature from 20.0 ∘C to 85.0 ∘C ?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Explanation:

C_{water} = 4190 J/kg.K

C_{Al} = 910 J/Kg. K

m_{Al} = 1.50 kg

m_{water} = 1.80 kg

Q_{added} = Q_{Al} + Q_{water}

=m_{Al} C_{Al}ΔT + m_{water} C_{water}ΔT

= (1.50)(910)(85.0-20)+(1.80)(4190)(85.0-20)

= 578,955 J

= 579 kJ
