A pelican flying along a horizontal path drops
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

height of the pelican, h = 5.0 m

horizontal distance, X = 8.9 m

The time of flight is given by;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2*5}{9.81} } \\\\t = 1.01 \ s

The initial horizontal speed of the pelican is given by;

X = vₓt

vₓ = X / t

vₓ = 8.9 / 1.01

vₓ = 8.81 m/s

Therefore, the initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

F = 6666.7 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a chip, m = 0.1 mg

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed,v=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s

Time of collision,t=6\times 10^{-8}\ s

We know that,

Force, F = ma

Put all the values,

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.1\times 10^{-6}\times (4\times 10^3-0)}{6\times 10^{-8}}\\\\F=6666.7\ N

So, the required force is 6666.7 N.

Calculate the temperature change when 1000J of heat is supplied to 100g of water.<br> Please explain
jasenka [17]

Answer:

It is sensible heat- the amount of heat absorbed by 1 kg of water when heated at a constant pressure from freezing point 0 degree Celsius to the temperature of formation of steam i.e. saturation temperature

So it is given as - mass× specific heat × rise in temperature

i.e. 4.2 × T

4.2 × (100–0)

So it is 420kj

If you ask how much quantity of heat is required to convert 1 kg of ice into vapour then you have to add latent heat of fusion that is 336 kj/kg and latent heat of vaporization 2257 kj/kg (these two process occur at constant temperature so need to add rise in tempeature)

So it will be

Q= 1×336 + 1× 4.18 ×100 + 1× 2257

Q = 3011 kj

Or 3.1 Mj

Hope you got this!!!!!!

How can you increase the force required to move an object without changing the mass of the object?
Effectus [21]

To increase the force required to move an object without change mass is : To increase the acceleration of the object

<h3>Force acting on an object </h3>

Given that Force = Mass * acceleration

An increase in the acceleration of an object in motion will result in a proportional increase in the Force required to move the object becasue force of an object is directly proportional to the acceleration of an object.

Hence we can conclude that To increase the force required to move an object without change mass is To increase the acceleration of the object.
