Answer:

2.943 J

Explanation:

Data:

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

mass of sand  = 0.5 kg

distance  = 0.6

Thermal energy  = the energy possessed by the falling sand

The force of sand = ma

                              = 0.5 * 9.81\\= 4.905 N

However, the energy is given as the force multiplied by the distance, so

E =fd

   4.905 * 0.6\\= 2.943 J

Therefore, the thermal energy is 2.943 joules

Answer:

<em>The thermal energy added would be 2.94 J</em>

Explanation:

Part 1

The increase in thermal energy is equal to the new potential energy of the body. As the sand falls and stop at 0.6 m it gains thermal energy in form of the potential energy;

Given the mass = 5 kg

g acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^{2}

increase in U would be  

+U = mgh

       = 0.5 x 0.6 x 9.8

      = 2.94 J

Therefore 2.94 J is added to the thermal energy of the body.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The density of the sample is 36 g/cm³

Explanation:

m= 972g

l=3cm

V = l³ = 3³ = 27 cm³

density = mass/volume

= 972/27

= 36 g/cm³

Newton’s 3rd law of motion states that “every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” A golf ball was hit with a force of 20
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

<u>Example of Newton's III law</u>

  • In the, golf the ball was hit by a club with certain force. As the club hits the ball it's the action. When the ball flies away its the reaction.
  • When a person swings a golf club at the ball, when it hits the ball, it causes the ball to roll up the face of the club and into the air towards the target.

A light wave moves from diamond (n= 2.4) into water (n= 1.33) at an angleof 24°. what angle does it have in water?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2      Snell's Law       (θ1 is the angle of incidence)

sin θ2 = n1 / n2 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 2.4 / 1.33 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 1.80 * .407 = .734

θ2 = 47.2 deg

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand  = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

<u>Condition (a);</u>

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 =  0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

<u>Codition (b);</u>

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)
