Answer:

100m.

Explanation:

Simply put, displacement is how far you've been displaced from your starting location. say you start at 0. You now travel E (assuming East) at 10 m/s for 10 s. Now, let's assume m is meters and s is seconds. you moved east at 10 meters per second for 10 seconds. This means that for each second you moved east, you moved 10 meters. Therefore, your displacement is 100 meters because 10 times 10 is 100. So you would write 100m as your displacement.

Suppose you throw a baseball downward from a roof so that it initially has 120 J of gravitational potential energy, and 10 J of

Volgvan

Answer:

It will be greater than 10 J.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its potential energy (PE) and its kinetic energy (KE):

E = PE + KE

According to the law of conservation of energy, when there are no frictional forces on an object, its mechanical energy is conserved.

The potential energy PE is the energy due to the position of the object: the highest the object above the ground, the highest its PE.

The kinetic energy KE is the energy due to the motion of the object: the highest its speed, the largest its KE.

Here at the beginning, when it is at the top of the roof, the baseball has:

PE = 120 J

KE = 10 J

So the total energy is

E = 120 + 10 = 130 J

As the ball falls down, its potential energy decreases, since its height decreases; as a result, since the total energy must remain constant, its kinetic energy increases (as its speed increases).

Therefore, when the ball reaches the ground, its kinetic energy must be greater than 10 J.

An ice cube at 0c was dropped into 30.0 g of water in a cup at 45.0c. at the instant that all of the ice was melted, the tempera

Ede4ka [16]

The amount of heat given by the water to the block of ice can be calculated by using
$Q=m_w C_{sw} \Delta T_w$
where
$m_w = 30 g$ is the mass of the water
$C_{sw}=4.18 J/(g ^{\circ}C)$ is the specific heat capacity of water
$\Delta T_w = 45.0^{\circ}-19.5^{\circ}C = 20.5^{\circ}C$ is the variation of temperature of the water.

Using these numbers, we find
$Q=(30 g)(4.18 J/(g^{\circ}C))(20.5^{\circ}C)=2571 J$

This is the amount of heat released by the water, but this is exactly equal to the amount of heat absorbed by the ice, used to melt it into water according to the formula:
$Q = m_i L_f$
where $m_i$ is the mass of the ice while $L_f =334 J/g$ is the specific latent heat of fusion of the ice.
Re-arranging this formula and using the heat Q that we found previously, we can calculate the mass of the ice:
$m_i = \frac{Q}{L_f}= \frac{2571 J}{334 J/g} =7.7 g$
