Answer:

The runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

Explanation:

Acceleration definition: Acceleration is rate of change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

In this case, after 3.6 seconds the acceleration is zero, it means that the velocity of the runner after 3.6 seconds is not changing and it will remain constant for the remainder of the race. Now, we have to find the velocity of the runner that he had after 3.6 seconds and that would be the runner's speed for the remainder of the race. For this we use first equation of motion.

First equation of motion:        Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf stands for final velocity

Vi stands for initial velocity

a stands for acceleration

t stands for time

In the question, it is mentioned that the runner starts from rest so its initial velocity (Vi) will be 0 m/s.

The acceleration (a) is given as 2.4 m/s²

The time (t) is given as 3.6 s

Now put the values of Vi, a and t in first equation of motion

                       Vf = Vi + a×t

                       Vf = 0 + 2.4×3.6

                       Vf = 2.4×3.6

                       Vf = 8.64 m/s

So,the runner's speed at the following times would remain 8.64 m/s.

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.30 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the
Vadim26 [7]

The resulting angular speed = 0.6 rad / s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here there is no external torque acting on the system thus we can apply the law of conservation of angular  momentum  

Angular momentum of the man = Iω

Where I = Inertia of the man about the axis of rotation

or         I = M r 2

            I  = 50 * 1.25*1.25 = 78.125

w = Angular velocity of the man, that can be calculated as follows

Tangential velocity of man = v = 2m/s  

So time taken to describe this circle is t = (2*pi* r) / v

Now angle described in 1 revolution θ = 2*pi radians

This angle is subtended in time t = (2*pi* r) / v

Thus angular speed = w = θ/t = 2*pi* ( v/ 2π r) = v/r = 2.70 / 1.25 = 2.16 rad/s

So angular momentum of man = Iw = 78.125 * 2.16 = 168.75.

To conserve the angular momentum before and after,

Angular momentum of disk = angular momentum of the man  

           i.e.             Iw of disk = 168.75

                                disk of I = (disk of M*R^2) / 2

                                              = (1.00 * 102 * 2.30 * 2.30) / 2

                                              = 269.79

                 Thus 269.79 of disk of w = 168.75

      Resulting angular speed of disk = 168.75 / 269.79 = 0.6 ras / s

MATHPHYS CAN U HELP ME PLEASE

Explanation:

(1) The heat added to warm the ice to 0°C is:

q = mCΔT = (0.041 kg) (2090 J/kg/°C) (0°C − (-11°C)) = 942.59 J

The heat added to melt the ice is:

q = mL = (0.041 kg) (3.33×10⁵ J/kg) = 13,653 J

The heat added to warm the water to 100°C is:

q = mCΔT = (0.041 kg) (4186 J/kg/°C) (100°C − 0°C) = 17,162.6 J

The heat added to evaporate the water is:

q = mL = (0.041 kg) (2.26×10⁶ J/kg) = 92,660 J

The heat added to warm the steam to 115°C is:

q = mCΔT = (0.041 kg) (2010 J/kg/°C) (115°C − 100°C) = 1236.15 J

The total heat needed is:

q = 942.59 J + 13,653 J + 17,162.6 J + 92,660 J + 1236.15 J

q = 125,654.34 J

(2) When the first two are mixed:

m C₁ (T₁ − T) + m C₂ (T₂ − T) = 0

C₁ (T₁ − T) + C₂ (T₂ − T) = 0

C₁ (6 − 11) + C₂ (25 − 11) = 0

-5 C₁ + 14 C₂ = 0

C₁ = 2.8 C₂

When the second and third are mixed:

m C₂ (T₂ − T) + m C₃ (T₃ − T) = 0

C₂ (T₂ − T) + C₃ (T₃ − T) = 0

C₂ (25 − 33) + C₃ (37 − 33) = 0

-8 C₂ + 4 C₃ = 0

C₂ = 0.5 C₃

Substituting:

C₁ = 2.8 (0.5 C₃)

C₁ = 1.4 C₃

When the first and third are mixed:

m C₁ (T₁ − T) + m C₃ (T₃ − T) = 0

C₁ (T₁ − T) + C₃ (T₃ − T) = 0

(1.4 C₃) (6 − T) + C₃ (37 − T) = 0

(1.4) (6 − T) + 37 − T = 0

8.4 − 1.4T + 37 − T = 0

2.4T = 45.4

T = 18.9°C

(3) Heat gained by the ice = heat lost by the tea

mL + mCΔT = -mCΔT

m (3.33×10⁵ J/kg) + m (2090 J/kg/°C) (30.8°C − 0°C) = -(0.176 kg) (4186 J/kg/°C) (30.8°C − 32.8°C)

m (397372 J/kg) = 1473.472 J

m = 0.004 kg

m = 4 g

4 grams of ice is melted and warmed to the final temperature, which leaves 128 grams unmelted.

(4) The heat added to warm the ice to 0°C is:

q = mCΔT = (0.028 kg) (2090 J/kg/°C) (0°C − (-67°C)) = 3920.84 J

The heat added to melt the ice is:

q = mL = (0.028 kg) (3.33×10⁵ J/kg) = 9324 J

The heat added to warm the melted ice to T is:

q = mCΔT = (0.028 kg) (4186 J/kg/°C) (T − 0°C) = (117.208 J/°C) T

The heat removed to cool the water to T is:

q = -mCΔT = -(0.505 kg) (4186 J/kg/°C) (T − 27°C)

q = (2113.93 J/°C) (27°C − T) = 57076.11 J − (2113.93 J/°C) T

The heat removed to cool the copper to T is:

q = -mCΔT = -(0.092 kg) (387 J/kg/°C) (T − 27°C)

q = (35.604 J/°C) (27°C − T) = 961.308 J − (35.604 J/°C) T

Therefore:

3920.84 J + 9324 J + (117.208 J/°C) T = 57076.11 J − (2113.93 J/°C) T + 961.308 J − (35.604 J/°C) T

13244.84 J + (117.208 J/°C) T = 58037.418 J − (2149.534 J/°C) T

(2266.742 J/°C) T = 44792.58 J

T = 19.8°C

(5) Kinetic energy of the hammer = heat absorbed by ice

KE = q

½ mv² = mL

½ (0.8 kg) (0.9 m/s)² = m (80 cal/g × 4.186 J/cal × 1000 g/kg)

m = 9.68×10⁻⁷ kg

m = 9.68×10⁻⁴ g

(6) Heat rate = thermal conductivity × area × temperature difference / thickness

q' = kAΔT / t

q' = (1.09 W/m/°C) (4.5 m × 9 m) (10°C − 4°C) / (0.09 m)

q' = 2943 W

After 10.7 hours, the amount of heat transferred is:

q = (2943 J/s) (10.7 h × 3600 s/h)

q = 1.13×10⁸ J

q = 113 MJ

They will be travelling slower than 10mph.
if they were travelling at the same speed then they would stay an equal distance apart.
if they were travelling fatser then they would be getting further away more quickly than Bobby is catching up.
maybe they are travelling at 5mph but I'd say it's a safer option to chose under 10mph
