1. A stationary 50 tonne submarine fires a missile of mass 40kg at
White raven [17]

The velocity of the submarine immediately after firing the missile is 0.0104 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the submarine M=50 tonne=50\times 1000=50000kg

Mass of the missile m=40  kg

velocity of the missile v= 13m/s

we have to calculate the velocity of the submarine after firing

This is the recoil velocity and its expression is derived from the law of conservation of momentum

recoil velocity of the submarine

V=-mv/M\\=-40\times 13/50000\\=0.0104 m/s

What is the difference between flashing point, boiling point and melting point​
sp2606 [1]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Melting point</u> is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. It is the temperature at which a solid changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
  • <u>Boiling poin</u>t is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid into a gas.
  • <u>The flash point </u>of a flammable liquid or volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed.
