Answer: When the car speed triples, momentum also triples but Kinetic energy increases 9 times or by 9 fold.

Explanation:

The momentum of a car (an object) is

p= mv

where

m is =the mass of the object( in this case car)

v is its= velocity

While the kinetic energy is is given by the formulae

K=1/2mv²

To determine how momentum and kinetic energy of the car changes when the speed of the object triples, We have that the new velocity,

v¹= 3v

So that the momentum change becomes

p¹=mv¹=m (3v)= 3mv

mv=p

therefore p¹= 3p

we can see that the momentum also triples.

And the kinetic energy change becomes

K¹=1/2m(v¹)²= 1/2m (3v)²

= 1/2m9v²= 1/2 x m x 9 x v²=9 x1/2mv²

1/2mv²=K

K¹= Kinetic energy = 9k

but Kinetic energy increases 9 times

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

$T_C=300 k$

Temperature of soup $T_H=340 K$

heat capacity of soup $c_v=33 J/K$

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any instant

efficiency is given by

$\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}$

$dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})$

$dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

integrating From $T_H$ to $T_C$

$\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

$W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT$

$W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}$

$W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]$

Now heat lost by soup is given by

$Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)$

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

$=\frac{W}{Q}$

$=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}$

$=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}$

$=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}$

$=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}$

$=0.061$

A spherical ball of charged particles has a uniform charge density. In terms of the ball's radius R, at what radial distances in

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Electric field at radius r inside the solid sphere is

Electric field at radius r between inner radius and outer radius of the shell is

E=0 N/C

Explanation:Given

The radius of the solid sphere is

The charge on the solid sphere is

The inner radius of the shell is

The outer radius of the shell is

The total charge on the shell is

PART(A)

The magnitude of electric field at radius r where \\The volumetric charge density of the solid sphere will be

The charge enclosed by the radius r inside the solid sphere is

rho=

According to gauss law

PART(B)

The electric field at radius r where

The shell is conducting so due to induction of charge

The charge induced on the inner surface of the shell is equal in magnitude of the total charge on the solid sphere but polarity will be changed because a conducting shell has no net electric field inside the shell

So,

The charge on the inner surface of the shell is

Due to conservation of the charge on the shell

The charge accumulated on the outer surface of the shell is

The charge enclosed by the radius r where

According to gauss law
