A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 27.0 m/s from the edge of the roof of a 21.0-m-tall building. The rock

doesn't hit the building on its way back down and lands in the street below. Ignore air resistance. Part A: What is the speed of the rock just before it hits the street?
Part B: How much time elapses from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street?

Answer:

A. 33.77 m/s

B. 6.20 s

Explanation:

Frame of reference:

Gravity g=-9.8 m/s^2; Initial position (roof) y=0; Final Position street y= -21 m

Initial velocity upwards v= 27 m/s

Part A. Using kinematics expression for velocities and distance:

V_{final}^{2}=V_{initial}^{2}+2g(y_{final}-y_{initial})\\V_{f}^{2}=27^{2}-2*9.8(-21-0)=33.77 m/s

Part B. Using Kinematics expression for distance, time and initial velocity

y_{final}=y_{initial}+V_{initial}t+\frac{1}{2} g*t^{2}\\==> -0.5*9.8t^{2}+27t+21=0\\==> t_1 =-0.69 s\\t_2=6.20 s

Since it is a second order equation for time, we solved it with a calculator. We pick the positive solution.

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Endless movement between hot and cold will eventually mean the end of the universe. This law is about inefficiency, degeneration and decay. <u>The second law can be expressed in several ways, the simplest being that heat will naturally flow from a hotter to a colder body. At its heart is a property of thermodynamic systems called entropy.</u> Entropy basically means an increase in randomness. Hope this helps mate.

Two cars traveled equal distances in different amounts of time. Car A traveled the distance in 2 h, and Car B traveled the dista
lions [1.4K]
The answer is 60 mph.

The speed (v) is distance (d) per time (t): v = d/t

Car A:
v1 = ?
t1 = 2 h
d1 = ?
___
v1 = d1/t1
d1 = v1 * t1

Car B:
v2 = ?
t2 = 1.5 h
d2 = ?
___
v2 = d2/t2
d2 = v2 * t2

<span>Two cars traveled equal distances:
d1 = d2
</span>v1 * t1 = v2 * t2

<span>Car B traveled 15 mph faster than Car A:
v2 = v1 + 15


</span>v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
v2 = v1 + 15
________
v1 * 2 = (v1 + 15) * 1.5
2v1 = 1.5v1 + 22.5
2v1 - 1.5v1 = 22.5
0.5v1 = 22.5
v1 = 22.5/0.5
v1 = 45 mph


v2 = v1 + 15
v2 = 45 + 15
v2 = 60 mph

As you learned in Part B, a non-burning helium core surrounded by a shell of hydrogen-burning gas characterizes the subgiant sta
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

E- The star becomes a red giant (LATEST STAGE)

F- The surface of the star becomes brighter and cooler

C- Pressure from the star's hydrogen-burning shell causes the non burning envelope to expand

A- The shell of hydrogen surrounding the star's nonburning helium core ignites.

D- The star's non burning helium core starts to contract and heat up

B- Pressure in the star's core decreases (EARLIEST STAGE)

(A star moves away from the main sequence once its core runs out of hydrogen to fuse into helium. The energy once supplied by hydrogen burning reduces and the core starts to compress under the force of gravity. This contraction allows the core and surrounding layers to heat up. Finally, the hydrogen shell around the core becomes hot enough to ignite hydrogen burning.
