Answer:

a 10 kg bag of hot water at the same temperature

Explanation:

A 10kg bag of hot water at the same temperature will retain heat much better and keep the tent warmer at night compared to the iron pellet.

  • Water has a very large specific heat capacity.
  • The specific heat capacity of water allows for it to retain heat better.
  • It takes a larger amount of heat to warm water compared to iron which is a better conductor.
  • In like manner, it takes more time for water to lose that amount of heat it has gained by the heating process.
  • This is why it is a better choice to keep the room warm

A delivery truck travels with a constant velocity up an 8 slope. A 60 kg box sits on the floor of the truck and, because of sta
Blababa [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

The slope of the ramp, \theta=8^{\circ}

Mass of the box, m = 60 kg

(a) Distance covered by the truck up the slope, d = 300 m

Initially the truck moves with a constant velocity. We know that the net work done on the box is equal to 0 as per work energy theorem as :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=0

u and v are the initial and the final velocity of the truck

(b) The work done on the box by the force of gravity is given by :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

Here, \theta=90+8=98^{\circ}

W=mgd\ cos\theta

W=60\times 9.8\times 300\ cos(98)

W = -24550.13 J

(c) What is the work done on the box by the normal force is equal to 0 as the angle between the force and the displacement is 90 degrees.

(d) The work done by friction is given by :

W_f=-W

W_f=24550.13\ J

Hence, this is the required solution.

A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

lara [203]

Answer:

1. B

2. B

Explanation:

1. he was the only teacher at that time that figured out that everything doesn't revolve around us. he figured it out by a telscope he made from three lens and a tube. its actually pretty cool. He found out that venus first was in front of us.

2. if the earth wasn't at a tilt, then we wouldn't have sessons, when the earth rotate around the sun, the earth is roataing at a title axis. and that changes our seesons, because if we are in south america, and we are in winter time, and south america is cold, then it means that the continent is not getting as much heat from the sun. Does that makes since, because it doesn't sound like it?
