Its very simple if a body is moving in circle the magnitude of its velocity remain constant  but its direction changes because velocity is directed towards tangent and at every point in a cirlce its direction will be different (along tangent) so velocity is not uniform .As acceleration is the rate  change of velocity  so it will be non zero because velocity is changing due to its direction.

Acceleration depends on the change in an object’s velocity. An object moving at a constant speed can experience a nonzero acceleration if the direction of the object’s motion changes.

550 g of water at 105°C is poured into an 855 g aluminum container with an initial temperature of 11°C. The specific heat of alu
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

54.22 kJ

Explanation:

In this case, we need to calculate the heat. The expression to use is:

Q = m * C * ΔT

Now, with the specific heat of water (4186 J/ kg K), we can calculate the temperature in which this occurs.

So:

Q = 0.550 * 4186 * (105 - T)

Q = 2302.3 (105 - T)

Q = 241,741.5 - 2302.3T

Now with the Aluminium:

Q = 0.855 * 900 * (T - 11)

Q = 769.5T - 8464.5

Now, with both equations, we solve for the final temperature:

769.5T - 8464.5 = 241,741.5 - 2302.3T

(2302.3 + 769.5)T = 241,741.5 + 8464.5

3071.8T = 250,206

T = 81.45 K

This is the temperature which the change occurs. Now, let's determine the amount of heat from water to Al:

Q = 241,741.5 - 2302.3(81.45)

Q = 54,219.17 J or simply 54.22 kJ.

A fire woman dropped a person onto the safety net. Right
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

m = 28.7[kg]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of kinetic energy, which can be calculated by means of the following equation.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}\\

where:

Ek = kinetic energy = 1800 [J]

m = mass [kg]

v = 11.2 [m/s]

1800=\frac{1}{2}*m*(11.2)^{2}\\m = 28.7[kg]

Why does cold weather feel colder inside?
schepotkina [342]
One reason is that when you have been out in the cold, your hands feet and exposed features of your face will take time to recover as the blood circulation improves and supplied warm blood to capillaries. So the relatively warm room you enter will not immediately feel warm until the blood has regained its normal circulation. Other factors are that windows are cooled from the outside and condensation forms on the inside because of moisture in the air. For this condensation to evaporate requires heat, which will be extracted from the room and the air near the windows will be cooled. The cold air will descend and form a draught at floor level and this will tend to make the room cooler.
