Answer:

25.6 m

Explanation:

From kinetic equation

s=ut +0.5at^{2} where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Substituting 3.2m/s for u, 1.6m/s2 for a and 4 s for t

s=3.2*4+0.5(1.6*4^{2})=12.8+12.8=25.6 m

Therefore, the distance is 25.6 m

Leto [7]
<span>The question is asking us what is BEST to say about a runner who is running at a constant velocity? A constant velocity (=speed) means that they are not getting faster or slower - they are running exactly as fast all the time. This meanst that their speed does not change, so their change of speed is equal to 0. A change of speed is called acceleration so their C. Their acceleration is zero. - C is the correct answer. </span>

6. A 145-g baseball moving 30.5 m/s strikes a stationary 5.75-kg brick resting on small rollers so it moves without significant
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

momentum of baseball before collision

mass x velocity

= .145 x 30.5

= 4.4225 kg m /s

momentum of brick after collision

= 5.75 x 1.1

= 6.325 kg m/s

Applying conservation of momentum

4.4225 + 0 = .145 x v + 6.325 , v is velocity of baseball after collision.

v = - 13.12 m / s

b )

kinetic energy of baseball  before collision = 1/2 mv²

= .5 x .145 x 30.5²

= 67.44 J

Total kinetic energy before collision = 67.44 J

c )

kinetic energy of baseball after collision = 1/2 x .145 x 13.12²

= 12.48 J .

 kinetic energy of brick after collision

= .5 x 5.75 x 1.1²

= 3.48 J

Total kinetic energy after collision

= 15.96 J

What temperature will 1L of H20 at 200°F become when a piece of copper,0.25kg at 260.928K, comes into contact with water?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of 1 L water = 1 kg .

200⁰F = (200 - 32) x 5 / 9 = 93.33⁰C .

260.928 K = 260.928 - 273 = - 12.072⁰C .

water is at higher temperature .

Let the equilibrium temperature be t .

Heat lost by water = mass x specific heat x  fall of temperature

= 1 x 4.2 x 10³ x ( 93.33 - t )

Heat gained by copper

= .25 x .385 x 10³ x ( t +  12.072 )

Heat lost = heat gained

1 x 4.2 x 10³ x ( 93.33 - t ) = .25 x .385 x 10³ x ( t +  12.072 )

93.33 - t = .0229 ( t + 12.072)

93.33 - t = .0229 t + .276

93.054 = 1.0229 t

t = 90.97⁰C .

A battery is used to charge a parallel-plate capacitor, after which it is disconnected. Then the plates are pulled apart to twic
Igoryamba

Answer: C.

Explanation:

For a parallel-plate capacitor where the distance between the plates is d.

The capacitance is:

C = e*A/d

You can see that the distance is in the denominator, then if we double the distance, the capacitance halves.

Now, the stored energy can be written as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2/C

Now you can see that in this case, the capacitance is in the denominator, then we can rewrite this as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2*d/(e*A)

e is a constant, A is the area of the plates, that is also constant, and Q is the charge, that can not change because the capacitor is disconnected.

Then we can define:

K = (1/2)*Q^2/(e*A)

And now we can write the energy as:

E = K*d

Then the energy is proportional to the distance between the plates, this means that if we double the distance, we also double the energy.

What does frequency mean in science
matrenka [14]

There's nothing mysterious about it at all. "Frequency" simply means
"often-ness" ... how often or how frequently something happens.

-- The frequency of traditional meals is 3 per day.
-- The frequency of an equinox is 2 per year.
-- The frequency of my sleeping really late is 1 per week.
-- The frequency of my intense desire to sleep late is 30 per month.
etc.

-- The standard unit of frequency in the SI system is "per second".
The special name for that unit is "Hertz".  (Hz)
