Assuming all the substances are already at the temperature that is their melting point, we only need to worry about the heat required to change state, not the heat required to change temperature.

No calculations necessary for this question - just look at the latent heat of fusion. The higher this value, the more heat required per unit mass of the substance to melt it. Of the four answer options, aluminum has the highest value and therefore will take the most heat to melt the same mass.

A 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal exp

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a.) 1567.2 m/s

b.) 149.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.

The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.

The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)

The third mass = 26 - 16.6

The third mass = 9.4kg

since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion

26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V

9100 = -5632 + 9.4V

9.4V = 9100 + 5632

9.4V = 14732

V = 14732/9.4

V = 1567.2 m/s

(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be

7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V

1404 = 9.4V

V = 1404/9.4

V = 149.4 m/s

Suppose that on earth you can throw a ball vertically upward a distance of 1.20 m. Given that the acceleration of gravity on the

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

7.04 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement on Earth = 1.2 m

a = Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = 1.67 m/s²

a = Acceleration due to gravity Earth= 9.81 m/s²

Accelration going up is considered as negetive

Initial Velocity of the ball

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 1.2-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow u=4.85\ m/s$

Assuming that the ball is thrown with the same velocity on the Moon, displacement of the ball is

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-4.85^2}{2\times -1.67}\\\Rightarrow s=7.04\ m$

The displacement of the ball on the moon is 7.04 m

The metric unit of force is the

Verizon [17]

Newtons. Force is mass times acceleration. Mass is measured in kilograms (kg) and acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2.) These units (kg and m/s^2) multiplied together like in the equation force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma) gives a product with Newtons as the unit.
