Answer: One of the units used to measure incident energy is calories per centimeter squared (cal/cm2).

Explanation: Incident energy this is defined as the amount of thermal energy impressed on a surface, at a certain distance from the source, generated during an electrical arc event.

The working distance is the distance from where the worker stands to the source location. The most common distance for which incident energy has been determined in tests is 18 inches.

The length of a 100 mm bar of metal increases by 0.3 mm when subjected to a temperature rise of 100°C. The coefficient of linear
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

α = 3×10^-5 K^-1

Explanation:

let ΔL be the change in length of the bar of metal, ΔT be the change in temperature, L be the original length of the metal bar and let α be the coefficient of linear expansion.

then, the coefficient of linear expansion is given by:

α = ΔL/(ΔT×L)

   = (0.3×10^-3)/(100)(100×10^-3)

   = 3×10^-5 K^-1

Therefore, the coefficient of linear expansion is 3×10^-5 K^-1

You throw a ball straight up. You are extra strong feeling today. It takes 11 seconds for the ball to come back down.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

A. 148.23 m

B. 2.75 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time of flight (T) = 11 s

Maximum height (h) =?

Initial velocity (u) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the ball to get to the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Time of flight (T) = 11 s

Time (t) to reach the maximum height =.?

T = 2t

11 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 11/2

t = 5.5 s

NOTE: Time to reach the maximum height is the same as the time taken for the ball to fall back to the plane of projection.

A. Determination of the maximum height to which the ball was thrown.

Time (t) to reach maximum height = 5.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 5.5²

h = 4.9 × 30.25

h = 148.23 m

B. Determination of the initial velocity.

Maximum height (h) reached = 148.23 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =?

u² = h/2g

u² = 148.23 / (2 × 9.8)

u² = 148.23 / 19.6

Take the square root of both side

u = √(148.23 / 19.6)

u = 2.75 m/s

31. If you threw a baseball straight out at 45 m/s from a height of 1.5 meters (A) how long would it be in the air? B) How far o
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A) t = 0.55 s

B) x = 24.8 m

Explanation:

A) We can find the time at which the ball will be in the air using the following equation:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{f} is the final height= 0  

y_{0} is the initial height= 1.5 m

v_{0y} is the component of the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0 m/s        

t: is the time =?      

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

0 = 1.5 m - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2}

By solving the above equation for t we have:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.5 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 0.55 s  

Hence, the ball will stay 0.55 seconds in the air.

                             

B) We can find the distance traveled by the ball as follows:

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Where:  

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0  

x_{f} is the final position =?  

x_{0} is the initial position = 0      

v_{0x} is the component of the initial speed in the horizontal direction = 45 m/s                                                                                            

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

x_{f} = 0 + 45 m/s*0.55 s + 0 = 24.8 m

Therefore, the ball will travel 24.8 meters.

I hope it helps you!

The acceleration due to gravity at the north pole of Neptune is approximately 10.7m/s2. Neptune has mass 1026kg and radius 25000
Scilla [17]

Answer:

(A) Force on the object will be 58.85 N

(B) Apparent weight will be equal to 57.21 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of Neptune m = 1026 kg

Radius R = 25000 Km

Time period = 16 hour

We know that 1 hour = 3600 sec

So 16 hour = 16×86400 = 57600 sec

Acceleration due to gravity at north pole of Neptune g=10.7m/sec^2

(A) Mass of the object m = 5.5 kg

So gravitational force on the object F_g=mg=5.5\times 10.7=58.85N

(B) Velocity will be equal to v=\frac{2\pi R}{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14\times25000\times 1000}{57600}=2725.694m/sec

Apparent weight of the object will be equal to w=f_g-\frac{mv^2}{r}

W=58.85-\frac{5.5\times (2725.694)^2}{25000\times 1000}=57.21N
