Newton’s Third Law describes two different bodies acting on each other.
now you've considered the action and reactions based on d ball, but have u considered the force the athlete exacts on the ground which is external to the athlete-ball system, now the ground in which the athlete stands exert a force back on the athelete-ball system which causes the ball to accelerate

Differences between concave and convex meniscus​
BARSIC [14]

Explanation:

A concave meniscus,(normally seen) occurs when the molecules of the liquid are attracted to those of the container. This occurs with water and a glass tube. A convex meniscus occurs when the molecules have a stronger attraction to each other than to the container, as with mercury and glass.

Water is boiled at sea level in a coffeemaker equipped with an immersion-type electric heating element. The coffee maker contain
Luden [163]

Answer:

P=1362\ W

t'=251.659\ s is time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of water, T_i=18^{\circ}C

time taken to vapourize half a liter of water, t=18\ min=1080\ s

desity of water, \rho=1\ kg.L^{-1}

So, the givne mass of water, m=1\ kg

enthalpy of vaporization of water, h_{fg}=2256.4\times 10^{-3}\ J.kg^{-1}

specific heat of water, c=4180\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of given water mass to 100°C:

Q_s=m.c.\Delta T

Q_s=1\times 4180\times (100-18)

Q_s=342760\ J

Now the amount of heat required to vaporize 0.5 kg of water:

Q_v=m'\times h_{fg}

where:

m'=0.5\ kg= mass of water vaporized due to boiling

Q_v=0.5\times 2256.4

Q_v=1.1282\times 10^{6}\ J

Now the power rating of the boiler:

P=\frac{Q_s+Q_v}{t}

P=\frac{342760+1128200}{1080}

P=1362\ W

Now the time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature:

t'=\frac{Q_s}{P}

t'=\frac{342760}{1362}

t'=251.659\ s

an object moving at 10. km/hr has a kinetic energy of 10. J. what is the kinetic energy of the same object if it is moving at 20
Schach [20]
Kinetic energy is related to velocity by:
KE = (1/2)mv^2

solve for mass m
10 = (1/2)m(10)^2
10 = (1/2)m(100)
10= 50m
10/50 = m
1/5 = m

at 20 km/hr

KE = (1/2)(1/5)(20)^2
KE = (1/10)(400)
KE = 40 J

A 55.0-g aluminum block initially at 27.5 degree C absorbs 725 J of heat. What is the final temperature of the aluminum? Express
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C

Explanation:

We have the equation for energy

      E = mcΔT

Here m = 55 g = 0.055 kg

ΔT = T - 27.5

Specific heat capacity of aluminum = 921.096 J/kg.K

E = 725 J

Substituting

     E = mcΔT

     725 = 0.055 x 921.096 x (T - 27.5)

     T - 27.5 = 14.31

     T = 41.81 ° C = 41.8 °C

Final temperature of the aluminum = 41.8 °C
