Part-1: Mean Kid pushes Nice Kid off a dock into the water. Mean does this by pushing Nice horizontally. But, karma has finally

caught up with Mean and at the same instant that Mean pushes Nice horizontally, the dock also collapses and Mean immediately begins to fall towards the water as well. (Karma isn't finished with Mean though, because only Nice knows how to swim.) Choose the correct statement. Select one:_______
a. Nice hits the water at the same time as Mean
b. Mean and Nice have the same speed throughout their trajectories
c. Nice hits the water first
d. Mean hits the water first
e. Mean has a greater acceleration mid-flight, than Nice in mid-flight
Part-2: Mean Kid pushes Nice Kid off a dock into the water. Mean does this by pushing Nice horizontally. But, karma has finally caught up with Mean and at the same instant that Mean pushes Nice horizontally, the dock also collapses and Mean immediately begins to fall towards the water as well. After Nice swims to shore, Karma arranges for a jelly fish to give Mean a bit of a sting. Choose the correct statement Select one:________
a. Mean and Nice hit the water with the same speed
b. Nice hits the water faster than Mean
c. Mean hits the water with a larger vertical component of speed than Nice's vertical component of speed
d. Nice hits the water slower than Mean

Answer:

Part-1: a)

Part-2: b)

Explanation:

Part-1

  • Since Nice is pushed horizontally, in the vertical direction, he has no initial component of velocity, due to both movements are independent each other.
  • Since the dock collapses, this means that in the vertical direction, the movement of Mean is exactly the same as Nice's.
  • The expression for the vertical displacement is given by the following equation:
  • \Delta y = \frac{1}{2} * g* t^{2}  (1)
  • So, due to the time of flight is determined by the height exclusively, and they start from the same height, we can conclude that they will hit the water at the same time.
  • So, the right answer is the a) for Part-1.

Part-2

  • The speed of both kids is given by the vector sum of  the vertical and horizontal components of velocity when they hit the water.
  • Mean falls vertically, with no component of velocity in the horizontal direction.
  • In the vertical direction, Nice falls with exactly the same speed, as they hit water at the same time.
  • However, Nice has a horizontal component of the velocity, that keeps constant during all his flight, as no external forces act in the horizontal direction.
  • So, the magnitude of Nice's speed must be larger than Mead's, due to the vertical components are the same, and the extra horizontal component of Nice's adds to the vertical one.
  • So, the right answer is b.) for Part-2.

Which of the following processes are spontaneous? Check all that apply.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

(1) A hot drink cooling to room temperature.

(2) The combustion of natural gas.

Explanation:

The spontaneous process is the process in which there is a release of energy and moves towards lower energy and a more thermodynamically stable energy state. All the natural processes are spontaneous.

There are two processes which are spontaneous in the given question are:

(1) A hot drink cooling to room temperature: In this, there is a decrease in energy and also it is a natural process and we know that all the natural processes are spontaneous.

(2) The combustion of natural gas: The fire is an example of an exothermic reaction. The combustion is a combination of a decrease in energy and an increase in entropy. So, this process occurs spontaneously.

What are at least three types of energy involving a microwave
timama [110]
I'm pretty sure what you are trying to ask for is radiative energy, light energy, and electronic energy.
Radiative since the microwave is releasing radiation,
Light since there is light inside the microwave,
Electronic since it is plugged in and uses electricity.
You can also use sound, but I don't think every microwave makes sound.
