Answer:

the impulse experienced by the egg is 0.053 kgm/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the egg, m = 60 g = 0.06 kg

initial velocity of the egg, u = 6 m/s

height moved by the egg, h = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Determine the final velocity of the egg as it moves upward;

v² = u² + 2(-g)h

v² = u² - 2gh

where;

v is the final velocity

-g is negative acceleration due gravity as it moves upward

v² = 6² - 2(9.8 x 0.5)

v² = 26.2

v = √26.2

v = 5.12 m/s

The impulse applied to the egg is the change in linear momentum;

J = ΔP

ΔP = mu - mv

ΔP = m(u - v)

ΔP = 0.06(6 - 5.12)

ΔP = 0.053 kgm/s

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the egg is 0.053 kgm/s.

sesenic [268]

Work formula:
W = F * d
F 1 = 40 N, d 1 = 6 m;
F 2 = 30 N; d 2 = 6 m.
W ( Cindy ) = 40 * 6 = 240 Nm
W ( Andy ) = 30 * 6 = 180 Nm
The difference of their amounts if work:
240 Nm - 180 Nm = 60 nm

hot water is added to three times its mass of water at 10 degree celsius and the resulting temperature is 20 degrees Celsius Wha

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The initial temperature of the hot water is $50\; \rm ^{\circ} C$ (assuming that no heat was lost to the surroundings.)

Explanation:

Let $m$ denote the mass of the hot water.

The question states that the mass of the water at $10\; \rm ^\circ C$ is three times the mass of the hot water. If the mass of the hot water is $m$ , the mass of the cold water would be $3\, m$ .

Let $c$ denote the specific heat capacity of water. Let $m$ denote the mass of some water. The energy required to change the temperature of that much water by $\Delta T$ (without state change) would be:
