Answer:

The black shirt would be hotter.

Explanation:

Most of us have already felt regret for leaving the house wearing black clothes on a hot day and with the sun showing. This has to do with the fact that black or very dark colored objects are absorbent, while light clothes and objects are reflective.

Going back to physics classes, we came to the idea that the color that we see in an object is related to the wavelengths of light reflected in that object, right?

Black objects, like the shirt you decided to wear, are black in color because they absorb all wavelengths in white light, but do not reflect any of them.

Then, throughout the day, you walk, run so as not to miss the bus, go out to lunch, and the shirt ends up absorbing all the light that comes from the Sun. As this light does not simply disappear, it is converted into other forms of energy - the heat enters there, which is then emitted. Therefore, the darker a garment, the more heat it will emit, and this is because it is a beautiful absorber of light.

Answer:

The torque produced by the pile of rocks is $\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

The distance of the single for equilibrium to occur is $r_s =1.62 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the left rock is $m_s = 2.25 \ kg$

The mass of the rock on the right $m_p = 10.1 kg$

The distance from fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is $r_p = 0.360 \ m$

Generally the torque produced by the pile of rock is mathematically represented as

$\tau = m_p * g * r_p$

Substituting values

$\tau = 10.1 * 9.8 * 0.360$

$\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

Generally we can mathematically evaluated the distance of the the single rock that would put the system in equilibrium as follows

The torque due to the single rock is

$\tau = m_s * g * r_s$

At equilibrium the both torque are equal

$35.63 = m_s * r_s * g$

Making $r_s$ the subject of the formula

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{m_s * g}$

Substituting values

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{2.25 * 9.8}$

$r_s =1.62 \ m$

If a 5.5 kg object experiences 15 N of force for .15 seconds what is the speed change

Nady [450]

The speed change : Δv = 0.41 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 5.5 kg

Force = 15 N

time = 0.15 s

Required

the speed change

Solution

Newton 2nd's law

Impulse and momentum

F = m.a

F = m . Δv/t

F.t = m.Δv

Input the value :

15 N x 0.15 s = 5.5 kg x Δv

Δv = 0.41 m/s

Where is potential energy in food stored

AlexFokin [52]

The potential energy is stored in the chemical bonds of the food. When those bonds break up during the metabolic processes, the energy is released. After that, that energy is stored in the Adenosine Triphosphate bonds aka ATP. The simplest way to think is to think of food as the tightly bound atoms. When the chemical bonds between those atoms break, the stored energy in that food is released.
