Answer:

t = 5.1[s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must first use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}=v_{o} -g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0

Vo = initial velocity = 25 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Now replacing:

0 = 25-9.81*t\\t=25/9.81\\t=2.54[s]

Note: The key to understand this problem is that when the tennis ball is in the highest position its velocity is zero.

So it will take the same time from the highest point to the ground

t = 2.54 +2.54

t = 5.09 [s]

The heat capacity of 0.125Kg of water is measured to be 523j/k at a room temperature.Hence, calculate the heat capacity of water
Naily [24]

Answer:

A. 4148 J/K/Kg

B. 4148 J/K/L

Explanation:

A. Heat capacity per unit mass is known as the specific heat capacity, c.

C = Heat capacity/mass(kg)

C = (523 J/K) / 0.125 Kg = 4148 J/K/Kg

B. Volume of water = mass/density

Density of water = 1 Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 Kg/ 1Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = (523 J/K) / 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = 4148 J/K/L
