Answer:
44.85C
Explanation:
Let the specific heat of glass thermometer be 0.84 J/g°C
Let the specific heat of water be 4.186 j/g °C
Let the water density be 1kg/L
136 mL of water = 0.136L of water = 0.136 kg of water = 136 g of water
Since the change of temperature on the glass thermometer is 43.6 - 22 = 21.6 C. We can then calculate the heat energy absorbed to it:
Assume no energy is lost to outside, by the law of energy conservation, this heat energy would come from water
The astronaut will move at 0.4 m/s in the opposite direction to the wrench
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the astronaut-wrench system must be conserved before and after the launch.
Before the launch, the total momentum is zero, since the astronaut is at rest:
p = 0 (1)
After the launch, the total momentum is:
(2)
where :
m = 2 kg is the mass of the wrench
v = 10 m/s is the velocity of the wrench
M = 50 kg is the mass of the astronaut
V is the recoil velocity of the astronaut
Since momentum is conserved, we can write (1) = (2), and so we can solve for V:
And the negative sign means that the astronaut will move in the opposite direction to the wrench.
