Answer:

Explanation:

The question relates to time of flight of a projectile .

Time of flight = 2 u sinθ / g

u is speed of projectile , θ is angle of projectile

= 2 x 48.5 sin42 / 9.8

= 6.6 seconds .

Maximum height attained

= u² sin²θ / g

= 48.5² sin²42 / 9.8

= 107.47 m .

A spacecraft is fueled using hydrazine (N2H4; molecular weight of 32 grams per mole [g/mol]) and carries 1640 kilograms [kg] of

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The value is $t = 689.029 \ hours$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The molar mass of hydrazine is $Z = 32 g/mol = \frac{32}{1000} = 0.032 \ kg/mol$

The initial temperature is $T_i = -186 ^o F = (-186-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 152\ K$

The final temperature is $T_f = 78 ^o F = (78-32) *\frac{5}{9} +273.15 = 298.7 \ K$

The specific heat capacity is $c_h = 0.099 [kJ/(mol K)] = 0.099 *10^3 J/(mol/K)$

The power available is $P = 300 \ W$

The mass of the fuel is $m = 1640 \ kg$

Generally the number of moles of hydrazine present is

$n = \frac{m}{Z}$

=> $n = \frac{1640}{= 0.032}$

=> $n = 51250 \ mol$

Generally the quantity of heat energy needed is mathematically represented as

$Q = n * c_h * (T_f -T_i)$

=> $Q = 51250 * 0.099 *10^3 * (298.7 - 152)$

=> $Q = 7.441516913 * 10^{8} \ J$

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{Q}{P}$

=> $t = \frac{7.441516913 * 10^{8} }{300}$

=> t = 2480505.6377 s

Converting to hours

$t = \frac{2480505.6377}{3600}$

=> $t = 689.029 \ hours$

Two 1-kg objects, C and D, increase in temperature by the same amount, but the

Ede4ka [16]

The object D is made up of material Lead. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

The specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature by 1°C. It is denoted by C.

Two 1-kg objects, C and D, increase in temperature by the same amount, but the thermal energy transfer of object C is greater than the thermal energy transfer of object D. The object C has a specific heat of 235 J/kg-K.

Q = m C ΔT

Qc > Qd

The energy transfer is proportional to specific heat.

Specific heat of D must be less. The possible material with specific heat less than the given value is for Lead material.

Thus, the correct option is D.

A small spinning asteroid is in a circular orbit around a star, much like the earth's motion around our sun. The asteroid has a

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Temperature will be 305 K

Explanation:

We have given The asteroid has a surface area $A=7.70m^2$

Power absorbed P = 3800 watt

Boltzmann constant $\sigma =5.67\times 10^{-8}Wm/K^4$

According to Boltzmann rule power radiated is given by

$P=\sigma AT^4$

$3800=5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 7.70\times T^4$

$T^4=87.0381\times 10^8$

$T=305K$

So temperature will be 305 K

Differentiate scalar & vector quantity?

Keith_Richards [23]

$\textbf{Hello Friend}$

Scalar Quantity :-

→ These are the quantities with magnitude only . These quantities doesn't have to be mentioned with direction

eg.)=> Mass , Temprature .

Vector Quantity :-

→ These quantities are described with both Magnitude and Direction . These quantities follow special type of algebra called Vector algebra .

eg.)=> Force , Displacement
