Answer:
Average speed = 0.35 m/s
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 1.3 Km
Time = 62 minutes
To find the average speed in m/s;
First of all, we would convert the quantities to their standard unit (S.I) of measurement;
Conversion:
1.3 kilometres to meters = 1.3 * 1000 = 1300 meters
For time;
1 minute = 60 seconds
62 minutes = X
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X = 62 * 60
X = 3720 seconds
Now, we can calculate the average speed in m/s using the formula;
Average speed = 0.35 m/s
Substance A would have a delta T (change in temp) rise 1/2 the rise in substance B.
Q=mc x delta T
Q= heat energy in Joules
m= mass of substance heated or cooled
c= specific heat
ΔT is change in temp.
Solve for change in temp=. Q/mc
Specific heat and mass are not inversely proportional to heat energy input.
Putting into real world scenario of using water to heat a building.
Specific heat of water is 1.
It takes 1 btu to raise one pound of water 1 degF. at a base of 60 degF
Acetone specific heat is .51
So it takes half the amount of heat input to get a 100 degree ΔT, as compared to water.
Answer:
The person on the truck would have the same speed as that of the truck. Also, before the ball is thrown, the ball would have the speed as that of the truck.
It is possible for a person standing at the side of the road to view the falling straight down. This would be possible if the ball is thrown backwards with the same magnitude of velocity as that of truck.
To the person on the truck, the ball would appear to have forward motion with the speed of the truck.
