It would travel faster through a steel bar, because sound waves travel by vibrating molecules in a medium. In solids, these molecules are spaced closer together, causing sound to travel faster through it. so that means the second fastest medium is liquid and the slowest is gas

19. Determine the final state and its temperature when 150.0 kJ of heat are added to 50.0 g of water at 20 ºC. (Specific heat of
8090 [49]

The amount of energy to reach the boiling point is 50*80*4.184 J=16,736J. To pass the boiling point, 40.79*\frac{50}{18.02}kJ=113,180J are necessary (18.02 is the molar mass of water). This means that 150kJ-113.180kJ-16.736kJ=20,084J are left. This allows the steam to heat another \frac{20,084}{50*1.99}=201.8^{\circ}C. Therefore, it ends as steam at temperature 100^{\circ}C+201.8^{\circ}C=301.8^{\circ}C

A 4.2-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.80 rad????s. Its total moment of inertia is 136
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

A) 0.44 rad/s

B) 3.091 rad/s

Explanation:

Initial angular momentum must be equal to final angular momentum.

W1 = 0.80 rad/s

I = 1360 kgm^2

Initial moment Iw = 0.8 x 1360 = 1088 rad-kg-m^2/s

For second case

I = (65 x 4)4.2 + 1360 = 2452 kg-m2-rad/s

New momentum = 2452 x W2

Where w2 = final angular momentum

= 2452W2

Equating both moment,

1088 = 2452W2

W2 = 0.44 rad/s0

If they were on it before,

Initial momentum

I = 1360 - (60 x 4)4.2

= 352 rad-kg-m^2/s

352W1 = 1088

W1 = 3.091 rad/s
