A ball is thrown up at a speed of 20 m/s.

Physics
1 answer:
ioda3 years ago
6 0

Given:

(Initial velocity)u=20 m/s

At the maximum height the final velocity of the ball is 0.

Also since it is a free falling object the acceleration acting on the ball is due to gravity g.

Thus a=- 9.8 m/s^2

Now consider the equation

v^2-u^2= 2as

Where v is the final velocity which is measured in m/s

Where u is the initial velocity which is measured in m/s

a is the acceleration due to gravity measured in m/s^2

s is the displacement of the ball in this case it is the maximum height attained by the ball which is measured in m.

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

0-(20x20)= 2 x- 9.8 x s

s= 400/19.6= 20.41m

Thus the maximum height attained is 20.41 m by the ball

A. A cook leaves a plastic spoon and a wooden spoon in a pot of hot water for the same length of time. The spoons have the same
Slav-nsk [51]

a) The one with the higher capacity will have smaller change in temperature

b) Yes, because the total energy is saved (enclosed) inside.

c) Heat from hot iron heats the water, then if there is still enough heat, the water can boil and evaporate

d) Q2+Q1=0, Q1 is for Iron and Q2 is for water

-C1M1(t-T1)=C2M2(t-T2)

t=\frac{C_1M_1T_1+C_2M_2T_2}{C_1M_1+C_2M_2}=26 C.

e) Closed system (isolated system) because the energy is transferred only between water and iron.

f) It would be smaller.

An average sleeping person metabolizes at a rate of about 80 W by digesting food or burning fat. Typically, 20% of this energy g
Leto [7]

Answer:

<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

Explanation:

The Power generated by metabolizing food = 80 W

The watt W is equivalent to the Joules per sec J/s

therefor power = 80 J/s

20% of this energy is not used for heating, amount available for heating is

==> H = 80% of 80 = 0.8 x 80 = 64 J/s

The inner body temperature = 37 °C = 273 + 37 = 310 K

The entropy of this inner body ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/310 = 0.2065 J/K-s

The skin temperature is cooler than the inner body by 7 °C

Temperature of the skin =  37 - 7 = 30 °C = 273 + 30 = 303 K

The entropy of the skin = ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/303 = 0.2112 J/K-s

change in entropy of the person's body = (entropy of hot region: inner body) - (entropy of cooler region: skin)

==> 0.2065 - 0.2112 =<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

A constant voltage of 12.00 V has been observed over a certain time interval across a 1.20 H inductor. The current through the i
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The time is 0.5 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage V= 12.00 V

Inductance L= 1.20 H

Current = 3.00 A

Increases rate = 8.00 A

We need to calculate change in current

\Delta A = 8.00-3.00= 5.00\ A

We need to calculate the time interval

Using formula of inductor

V=L\dfrac{\Delta A}{\Delta t}

\Delta t =\dfrac{L\Delta A}{V}

Where, \Delta A = change in current

V = voltage

L = inductance

Put the value into the formula

\Delta t=\dfrac{1.20\times5.00}{12.00}

\Delta t=0.5\ sec

Hence, The time is 0.5 sec.

What would the kinetic energy and potential energy be with the snowboarder, before during and after a jump?
Reika [66]

Answer: Before the jump, the snowboarder would carry potential energy.

During the jump he will carry kinetic energy.

And after the jump, assuming hes at a full stop, he will carry potential energy once again.
