A 2.2 kgkg block slides along a frictionless surface at 1.2 m/sm/s . A second block, sliding at a faster 4.0 m/sm/s , collides w

ith the first from behind and sticks to it. The final velocity of the combined blocks is 1.8 m/sm/s ?

Answer:

0.6kg

Explanation:

the unknown here is the mass of the second block

applying the law of the conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v₃

where m₁=mass of first block=2.2kg

m₂=mass of colliding block= ?

v₁= velocity of first block=1.2m/s

v₂=velocity of colliding block=4.0m/s

v₃= final velocity of combined block=1.8m/s

applying the formula above

(2.2 × 1.2) + (m₂ × 4) = (2.2 + m₂) × 1.8

2.64 + 4m₂ = 3.96 + 1.8m₂

collecting like terms

4m₂ - 1.8m₂ = 3.96 - 2.64

2.2m₂=1.32

divide both sides by 2.2

m₂= 0.6kg

A squirrel drops an acorn onto the head of an unsuspecting dog. The acorn falls 4.0\,\text m4.0m4, point, 0, start text, m, end
kirill [66]

Answer:

0.903 seconds

Explanation:

To find how many seconds the acorn fall, we can use the formula for distance travelled with constant acceleration:

D = Vo*t + a*t^2/2,

where D is the distance travelled, Vo is the inicial speed, t is the time and a is the acceleration.

In our problem:

Vo = 0,

a = g = 9.81 m/s2,

D = 4 meters.

So, we can solve the equation to find the time:

4 = 0*t +9.81*t^2/2

4.905*t^2 = 4

t^2 = 4/4.905 = 0.8155

t =   0.903 seconds

Acids turned _______bases turned _________and neutral stayed______
garik1379 [7]
I'm not sure tbh, but if it helps, heres a game that helped me understand bases acids and neutrals for chem in 8th grade! http://static.lawrencehallofscience.org/scienceview/scienceview.berkeley.edu/html/showcase/flash/jui... I know it looks cheesy, but it helps! Chem is something youll have until college, and it helps to learn about it. You can make drinks using acids, bases, and neutrals!

A 1.00 kg block of ice, at -25.0°C, is warmed by 35 kJ of energy. What is the final temperature of the ice?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

-8.4°C

Explanation:

From the principle of heat capacity.

The heat sustain by an object is given as;

H = m× c× (T2-T1)

Where H is heat transferred

m is mass of substance

T2-T1 is the temperature change from starting to final temperature T2.

c- is the specific heat capacity of ice .

Note : specific heat capacity is an intrinsic capacity of a substance which is the energy substained on a unit mass of a substance on a unit temperature change.

Hence ; 35= 1× c× ( T2-(-25))

35= c× ( T2+25)

35 =2.108×( T2+25)

( T2+25)= 35/2.108= 16.60°{ approximated to 2 decimal place}

T2= 16.60-25= -8.40°C

C, specific heat capacity of ice is =2.108 kJ/kgK{you can google that}
