Answer:-24,5m/s

Explanation: what we have here is a UALM with these gravity as acceleration (-9.8 m/s^2). The initial position is 25 m and initial speed is 10m/s.

Speed and gravity are increasing in the opposite direction, speed upwards and gravity downwards, while the position is also upwards, depending on your reference system.

The first thing I need to know is the maximum high it will reach.

Hmax=- S(0)^2/2g=

S= speed.

0= initial

G= gravity

Hm= 100/19,6= 5.1 m

So, the ball will go 5,1 m higher than the initial position, and from there it will fall free.

Then, I need to know how long it takes to fall. For that we use UALM equation:

X(t)= X(0) + S(0)*t + (A*t^2)/2.

X: position

S: speed

A: acceleration

T:time

0: initial

0 = 25m +10*t -(9.8 * t^2)/2

Solving the quadratic equation we get

T= 3,5 sec. ( Negative value for time is impossible)

So now we know that the ball to go up and then fall needs 3,5 sec.

Let's see how long it takes to go up:

30,1=25+10*t-4,9*t^2

0=-5,1+10*t-4,9*t^2

T= 1 sec. So it will take 1 sec to the ball to reach the maximum high and 0=speed and then it'll fall during the resting 2,5 sec

Finally, to know the speed just before it touches the ground, we use the following formula:

A= (St-S0)/t

-9.8m/s^2 = (St- 0m/s)/ 2,5s

-24,5 m/s= St

-24,5 m/s is the speed at 3,5 sec, which is the time just before falling

Differences between freezing point and melting point (Atleast 5 differences)​
labwork [276]

Answer:

What is freezing point?

A liquid's freezing point is determined at which it turns into a solid. Corresponding to the melting point, the freezing point often rises with increasing pressure. In the case of combinations and for some organic substances, such as lipids, the freezing point is lower than the melting point. The first solid which develops when a combination freezes often differs in composition from the liquid, and the development of the solid alters the composition of the remaining liquid, typically lowering the freezing point gradually. Utilizing successive melting and freezing to gradually separate the components, this approach is used to purify mixtures.

What is melting point?

The temperature at which a purified substance's solid and liquid phases may coexist in equilibrium is referred to as the melting point. A solid's temperature goes up when heat is added to it until the melting point is achieved. The solid will then turn into a liquid with further heating without changing temperature. Additional heat will raise the temperature of the liquid once all of the solid has melted. It is possible to recognize pure compounds and elements by their distinctive melting temperature, which is a characteristic number.

The difference between freezing point and melting point:

  1. While a substance's melting point develops when it transforms from a solid to a liquid, a substance's freezing point happens when a liquid transforms into a solid when the heat from the substance is removed.
  2. When the temperature rises, the melting point can be seen, and when the temperature falls, the freezing point can be seen.
  3. When a solid reaches its melting point, its volume increases; meanwhile, when a liquid reaches its freezing point, its volume decreases.
  4. While a substance's freezing point is not thought of as a distinctive attribute, its melting point is.
  5. While external pressure is a significant component in freezing point, atmospheric pressure is a significant element in melting point.
  6. Heat must be supplied from an outside source in order to reach the melting point for such a state shift. When a material is at its freezing point, heat is needed to remove it from the substance in order to alter its condition.
