Answer:

so its 0.098*C

Explanation:

Let m gram be the mass of water.

Then potential energy of water is:

P.E.=mgh

=m×980×8400

Since potential energy is converted to kinetic energy

P.E.=K.E.

K.E.=m×980×8400

Half of kinetic energy is converted into heat.

Then  heat energy:

Heat energy=

​

×m×980×8400

Convert joule into calories

heat=

4.2×10

m×980×4200

​

=m×0.098

But heat is:

Heat=msΔT

∴msΔT=m×0.098

m×1×ΔT=m×0.098

ΔT=0.098C

Rise in temperature of water is =0.098

Hello!

Work is equal to negative change in PE and PE=mgh and Power is change in work/change in time

So we have 

56.1kg * 9.80m/s^2 * 16m = 8796.5 J of PE at top of run and -8796.5J of work done also

if it takes him 12s then we need to find the time gravity alone would bring him to the bottom. we get

16m=1/2at^2 and solving for t we get 
t=sqrt(32/9.80m/s^2)=1.81s

so the difference in time is 12-1.8=11.2s

now we can find avg power=work/time = 8796.5J/11.2s = 785W or 785J/s

Hope this helps! Any questions please ask! Thank you!

A ray of light is incident on a flat surface of a block of polystyrene, with an index of refraction of 1.49, that is submerged i
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

21.5°

Explanation:

Given,

Refractive index of water, n₁ = 1.33

Refractive index of polystyrene, n₂ = 1.49

Angle of reflection = ?

Angle of refraction = 19.1°

Using Snell's law

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

1.33 x sin θ₁ = 1.49 x sin 19.1°

sin θ₁ = 0.366

θ₁  = 21.5°

According to law of reflection angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.

Angle of reflection =  21.5°

What is the hang time when the person moves 6 m horizontally during a 1.25 m high jump?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

1 sec

Explanation:

Horizontal distance (x) = 6m

Vertical distance (y) = 1.25m

Hang time is the duration the object is in the air before it reaches maximum height.

The time of free fall is given by

t = √2y/g

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = √(2*1.25)/9.8

t = √2.5/9.8

t = 0.5secs

Hang time = 2*0.5

= 1 sec

A U-shaped tube open to the air at both ends contains some mercury. A quantity of water is carefully poured into the left arm of
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) P=2450\ Pa

b) \delta h=23.162\ cm

Explanation:

Given:

height of water in one arm of the u-tube, h_w=25\ cm=0.25\ m

a)

Gauge pressure at the water-mercury interface,:

P=\rho_w.g.h_w

we've the density of the water =1000\ kg.m^{-3}

P=1000\times 9.8\times 0.25

P=2450\ Pa

b)

Now the same pressure is balanced by the mercury column in the other arm of the tube:

\rho_w.g.h_w=\rho_m.g.h_m

1000\times 9.8\times 0.25=13600\times 9.8\times h_m

h_m=0.01838\ m=1.838\ cm

<u>Now the difference in the column is :</u>

\delta h=h_w-h_m

\delta h=25-1.838

\delta h=23.162\ cm
