Answer:

The correct answer is D

shock waves

Explanation:

When a body approaches the speed of sound in the media, the waves it emits are getting closer and closer to each other, the envelope (sum) results in a kind of cylindrical cone that is similar to that formed in a supersonic process

The correct answer is D

When the speed of sound is exceeded, the body goes faster than the wave, so the so-called shock waves are formed.

  They carry a lot of energy

a car travelling at 50km/h from rest covers a distance of 10km in 40minutes. Calculate the acceleration​
Margarita [4]

Answer:

9.67\cdot 10^{-3}m/s^2

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

For the car in this problem:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

v=50 km/h \cdot \frac{1000}{3600}=13.9 m/s is the final velocity

s = 10 km = 10 000 m is the displacement

Solving for a, we find:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{13.9^2}{2(10000)}=9.67\cdot 10^{-3}m/s^2

In the combo circuit diagrammed, R1 = 19.2 Ω, R2 = 20.7 Ω, and R3 = 25.8 Ω. Find the equivalent resistance of the circuit.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Equivalent resistance: 13.589 Ω

Explanation:

R series = R1 + R2 + R3 ...

\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = \frac{1}{R1} +\frac{1}{R2} +\frac{1}{R3} ...

Find the equivalent resistance of the right branch of the circuit:

R_{eq}  = R_{2} +R_{3} \\R_{eq} = 20.7 + 25.8 = 46.5 ohms

\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = \frac{1}{19.2} +\frac{1}{46.5}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = 0.0735887097\\\\R_{eq} = 13.5890411

A pot on the stove contains 200 g of water at 20°C. An unknown mass of ice that is originally at −10°C is placed in an identical
Mumz [18]

Answer:

a) The mass of the ice is smaller than the mass of the water

b) The ice reaches first 80°C ,

Explanation:

Since the heat Q that should be provided to ice

Q = sensible heat to equilibrium temperature (as ice) + latent heat + sensible heat until final temperature ( as water)

m ice * c ice * ( T equil -T initial  ) + m ice* L + m ice* c water * ( T final - T equil)

and the heat Q that should be provided to water is

Q= m water * c water * ( T final - T equil )

since the rate of heat addition q = constant and the time t taken to reach the final temperature is the same , then the heat absorbed Q=q*t is the same for both, therefore

m water * c water *  ( T final - T equil ) = m ice* [c ice *( T equil -T initial  ) + L + c water * ( T final - T equil)]

m water/ m ice =  [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L + c water * ( T final - T equil)]/ [ c water * ( T final - T equil)]

m water/ m ice = [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L ]/[c water * ( T final - T equil) ] + 1

since  [c ice * ( T equil -T initial  )  + L ]/[c water * ( T final - T equil) ] >0 , then

m water/ m ice > 1

m water > m ice

so the mass of ice is smaller that the mass of water

b) Since the heat Q that should be provided to the ice, starting from 55°C mass would be

Q ice= m ice * c water * ( T final2 - T final1 )

and for the water mass

Q water = m water * c water * ( T final2 - T final1 )

dividing both equations

Q water / Q ice = m water / m ice >1

thus

Q water > Q ice

since the heat addition rate is constant

Q water = q* t water and Q ice=q* t ice

therefore

q* t water > q* t ice

t water >  t ice

so the time that takes to reach 80°C is higher for water , thus the ice mass reaches it first.
