Many of water's emergent properties, such as its cohesion, its high specific heat, and its high heat of vaporization, result fro

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option 5.

Explanation:

Many of the properties of water like high specific heat, cohesion, high vaporization heat, etc can be contributed to the polar nature of water molecule.

Water being a polar molecule as it contains positively charged hydrogen and an electro-negative oxygen which results in uneven or non uniformity in sharing of electrons which leads to dipole formation and hence polarization of the molecule due to which it attracts its neighboring molecules.

This polar nature imparts the properties like cohesion, surface tension , adhesion, etc due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in water molecule.

Aiden takes 0.10s to throw a baseball, which leaves his hand with a velocity of 49m/s. The balls acceleration is

Brums [2.3K]

Since the ball was not moving before it let Aiden's hand, the formula used to calculate the acceleration is
$a = \frac{v}{t}$
, where a is acceleration, v is velocity and t is the time. We put them in the formula and get
$a = \frac{49}{0.1} \\ a = \frac{490}{1} \\ a = 490$
The acceleration is 490 m/s^2

Assuming a 8 kilogram bowling ball moving at 2 m/s bounces off a spring at the same speed that had before bouncing what is the a

Naya [18.7K]

a) 32 kg m/s

Assuming the spring is initially at rest, the total momentum of the system before the collision is given only by the momentum of the bowling ball:

$p_i = m u = (8 kg)(2 m/s)=16 kg m/s$

The ball bounces off at the same speed had before, but the new velocity has a negative sign (since the direction is opposite to the initial direction). So, the new momentum of the ball is:

$p_{fB}=m v_b =(8 kg)(-2 m/s)=-16 kg m/s$

The final momentum after the collision is the sum of the momenta of the ball and off the spring:

$p_f = p_{fB}+p_{fS}$

where $p_{fS}$ is the momentum of the spring. For the conservation of momentum,

$p_i = p_f\\p_i = p_{fB}+p_{fS}\\p_{fS}=p_i -p_{fB}=16 kg m/s -(-16 kg m/s)=32 kg m/s$

b) -32 kg m/s

The change in momentum of bowling ball is given by the difference between its final momentum and initial momentum:

$\Delta p=p_{fb}-p_i=-16 kg m/s - 16 kg m/s=-32 kg m/s$

c) 64 N

The change in momentum is equal to the product between the average force and the time of the interaction:

$\Delta p=F \Delta t$

Since we know $\Delta t=0.5 s$ , we can find the magnitude of the force:

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{-32 kg m/s}{0.5 s}=-64 N$

The negative sign simply means that the direction of the force is opposite to the initial direction of the ball.

d) The force calculated in the previous step (64 N) is larger than the force of 32 N.
