Hello!

On a cold winters day, if you left a drink setting outside, it could freeze because the heat (related to the kinetic energy) of the atoms in the drink will be transferred to the environment to achieve energy equilibrium. 

Heat transfer occurs by various mechanisms, flowing from the hottest body to the coldest, that's why the heat goes from the drink, which has a higher temperature (and kinetic energy) to the environment, which has a lower temperature. This is described by the second law of thermodynamics

A radioactive substance decays at an annual rate of 131313 percent. If the initial amount of the substance is 325325325 grams, w
anyanavicka [17]

Answer: f_{(t)}=325(0.87)^{t}

Explanation:

If we have an initial amount of a radioactive material or substance, which is 325g,  and we also are told this amount decays 13\% each year, this means each year 87\% of the substance remains:

100\%-13\%=87\%=0.87

<u />

<u>To understand it better:</u>

Year 1: 325(87\%)=325(0.87)

Year 2: 325(0.87)(0.87)=325(0.87)^{2}

Year 3: 325(0.87)(0.87)(0.87)=325(0.87)^{3}

and so on until year t:

Year t: 325(0.87)^{t}

Therefore, the function tha best describes this radiation decay situation is:

f_{(t)}=325(0.87)^{t}

An object is dropped from a platform100 ft high. Ignoring wind resistance, what will its speed be when it reaches the ground?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

80 ft/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 100 ft

v₀ = 0 ft/s

a = 32.2 ft/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 ft/s)² + 2 (32.2 ft/s²) (100 ft)

v = 80.2 ft/s

Rounded, the speed when it reaches the ground is 80 ft/s.

Deffense [45]
The answer is D using the work formula
W= F•d but if it was against gravity, it would be 0 if gravity is exerting the same amount, I would pick D using the formula, but I'm not so sure sorry

Baseball outfielder throws a baseball of mass 0.15 kg at a speed of 40 m/s and initial angle of 30. What
Archy [21]

Explanation:

At the top of the the ball's trajectory, there is only the horizontal component of the initial velocity, which is v_0\cos30, so the kinetic energy of the ball at this point is

KE = \frac{1}{2}m(v_0\cos30)^2

\;\;\;\;\;= \frac{1}{2}(0.15\:\text{kg})[(40\:\text{m/s})\cos30]^2

\;\;\;\;\;= 90\:\text{J}
