Heat gained by water= 25.1 J

Explanation:

As per the law of conservation of energy

Heat gained by water= Heat lost by the nail

Heat lost by nail= Q= m c ΔT

m= mass of nail= 1.5 g

c= specific heat capacity of nail=0.449 j/ g °C

ΔT= change in temperature=57.8-95= -37.2° C

Q=1.5 (0.449)(-37.2)

Q=-25.1 J

This is negative because the heat is lost by the nail. Same amount of heat is gained by the water.

so heat gained by water=25.1 J

An underground cannon launches a cannonball from ground level at a 35 degree angle. the cannonball is shot with an initial veloc
user100 [1]

Answer:

Time = 1.75[s]; Distance traveled = 21.5 [m]; Max height = 15 [m]

Explanation:

First, we have to break down the velocity vector into the X & y components.

(v_{x})_{0} = 15 * cos( 35)= 12.28[m/s]\\(v_{y})_{0} = 15 * sin( 35)= 8.6[m/s]\\\\

To find the time t that lasts the ball of cannon in the air we must use the following equation of kinematics, in this equation the value of y is equal to zero because it will be proposed that the ball lands at the same level that was fired.

y=(v_{y} )_{0}-\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}   \\where:\\g=9.81[m/s^2]\\t = time[s]\\y=0[m]

0=8.6*t-\frac{1}{2}*9.81*t^{2}  \\4.905*t^{2}=8.6*t\\ t=1.75[s]

In order to find the distance traveled horizontally from the cannonball, we must use the speed kinematics equation in the X coordinate.

x = (v_{x})_{0}  *t\\x=12.28*1.75\\x=21.5 [m]

In order to find the last value, we must bear in mind that when the cannonball reaches the maximum height, the velocity in the component y is equal to zero, and we can find the value of and with the following kinematic equation

y = (v_{y})_{0} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*(t)^{2} \\y = 0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.81*(1.75)^{2}\\ y=15 [m]

At the top of a giant swing on the gymnastics high bar, candy's velocity is 1 m/s, and she is 3.5 m high. if candy's mass is 50
Allushta [10]
The total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy:
E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 +mgh
where m=3.5 kg is Candy's mass, v=1 m/s is her velocity and h=3.5 m is her height. If we replace these numbers, we find the mechanical energy of the system:
E= \frac{1}{2} (50 kg)(1m/s)^2 + (50 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.5 m)=1742 J =1.74 kJ

A 3.6-volt battery is used to operate a cell phone
Marina CMI [18]

Explanation :

It is given that,

Potential energy, V=3.6\ V

Power dissipated,  P=0.064\ Watt

We know that the power dissipated is given by :

P=VI

I is the current passing through the phone.

I=\dfrac{P}{V}

I=\dfrac{0.064\ W}{3.6\ V}

I=0.017\ A

or

I = 0.018 A

Hence, the current that passes through the phone is (1) 0.018 A.

How might the distance between the needle and the water droplets have affected the movement of the droplets?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The behavior of droplets trapped in geometric structures is essential to droplet manipulation applications such as for droplet transport. Here we show that directional droplet movement can be realized by a V-shaped groove with the movement direction controlled by adjusting the surface wettability of the groove inner wall and the cross sectional angle of the groove. Experiments and analyses show that a droplet in a superhydrophobic groove translates from the immersed state to the suspended state as the cross sectional angle of the groove decreases and the suspended droplet departs from the groove bottom as the droplet volume increases. We also demonstrate that this simple grooved structure can be used to separate a water-oil mixture and generate droplets with the desired sizes. The structural effect actuated droplet movements provide a controllable droplet transport method which can be used in a wide range of droplet manipulation applications.
