Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)
<span>soo, t = 1 sec</span>

How far can a sound wave travel in 90 seconds when the ambient air temperature is 10 C?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

s = 30330.7 m = 30.33 km

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the speed of sound at the given temperature. For this purpose we use the following formula:

v = v₀√[T/273 k]

where,

v = speed of sound at given temperature = ?

v₀ = speed of sound at 0°C = 331 m/s

T = Given Temperature = 10°C + 273 = 283 k

Therefore,

v = (331 m/s)√[283 k/273 k]

v = 337 m/s

Now, we use the following formula to calculate the distance traveled  by sound:

s = vt

where,

s = distance traveled = ?

t = time taken = 90 s

Therefore,

s = (337 m/s)(90 s)

<u>s = 30330.7 m = 30.33 km</u>

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: B. development of female sex

Development of female sex characteristic is not associated with the amount of cortisol in the body.

Explanation:

Cortisol is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal gland. It facilitates stress response, regulates blood sugar level and helps fight infections. High cortisol level leads to Cushing syndrome and low cortisol level leads to Addison disease.

Obesity is a  symptom of Cushing syndrome while weight loss is a symptom of Addison disease. Thus levels of cortisol can affect body weight as well.  When in a stressful situation, our body pumps excess cortisol.

Cortisol level in our body is generally high in the mornings and low in the midnight.

How much ice (at 0°C) must be added to 1.90 kg of water at 79 °C so as to end up with all liquid at 8 °C? (ci = 2000 J/(kg.°
muminat

m = mass of the ice added = ?

M = mass of water = 1.90 kg

c_{w} = specific heat of the water = 4186 J/(kg ⁰C)

c_{i}  = specific heat of the ice = 2000 J/(kg ⁰C)

L_{f} = latent heat of fusion of ice to water = 3.35 x 10⁵ J/kg

T_{ii}  = initial temperature of ice = 0 ⁰C

T_{wi} = initial temperature of water = 79 ⁰C

T = final equilibrium temperature = 8 ⁰C

using conservation of heat

Heat gained by ice = Heat lost by water

m c_{w}  (T - T_{ii} ) + m L_{f}  = M c_{w}  (T_{wi} - T)

inserting the values

m (4186) (8 - 0) + m (3.35 x 10⁵ ) = (1.90) (4186) (79 - 8)

m = 1.53 kg
