Could have gotten tired after the first trial. ? i’m not sure if that’s it

A cold beverage can be kept cold even a warm day if it is slipped into a porous ceramic container that has been soaked in water.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

The rate at which the container is losing water is 0.0006418 g/s.

Explanation:

Under the assumption that the can is a closed system, the conservation law applied to the system would be: $E_{in}-E_{out}=E_{change}$ , where $E_{in}$ is all energy entering the system, $E_{out}$ is the total energy leaving the system and, $E_{change}$ is the change of energy of the system.
As the purpose is to kept the beverage can at constant temperature, the change of energy ( $E_{change}$ ) would be 0.
The energy that goes into the system, is the heat transfer by radiation from the environment to the top and side surfaces of the can. This kind of transfer is described by: $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)$ where $\varepsilon$ is the emissivity of the surface, $\sigma=5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}$ known as the Stefan–Boltzmann constant, $A_S$ is the total area of the exposed surface, $T_S$ is the temperature of the surface in Kelvin, $T_{\infty}$ is the environment temperature in Kelvin.
For the can the surface area would be ta sum of the top and the sides. The area of the top would be $A_{top}=\pi* r^2=\pi(0.0252m)^2=0.001995m^2$ , the area of the sides would be $A_{sides}=2*\pi*r*L=2*\pi*(0.0252m)*(0.09m)=0.01425m^2$ . Then the total area would be $A_{total}=A_{top}+A_{sides}=0.01624m^2$
Then the radiation heat transferred to the can would be $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)=1*5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}*0.01624m^2*((32+273K)^4-(17+273K)^4)=1.456W$ .
The can would lost heat evaporating water, in this case would be $Q_{out}=\frac{dm}{dt}*h_{fg}$ , where $\frac{dm}{dt}$ is the rate of mass of water evaporated and, $h_{fg}$ is the heat of vaporization of the water ( $2257\frac{J}{g}$ ).
Then in the conservation balance: $Q_{in}-Q_{out}=Q_{change}$ , it would be $1.45W-\frac{dm}{dt}*2257\frac{j}{g}=0$ .
Recall that $1W=1\frac{J}{s}$ , then solving for $\frac{dm}{dt}$ : $\frac{dm}{dt}=\frac{1.45\frac{J}{s} }{2257\frac{J}{g} }=0.0006452\frac{g}{s}$

A car accelerates from rest at -3.00m/s^2. What is the velocity at the end of 5.0s? What is the displacement after5.0s?

Andrew [12]

Speed = (acceleration) x (time)
Velocity = (speed) in (direction of the speed)

Speed = (-3 m/s²) x (5 s) = 15 m/s
Velocity =
   (15 m/s) in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive.

Displacement = (distance between start-point and end-point)
   in the direction from start-point to end-point.

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)²
Distance = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (5 s)²
   = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (25 s²) = 37.5 meters

Displacement =
   37.5 meters in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive.

Us your understanding of asexual reproduction to explain why is it important that organisms reproduce in a variety of ways.

valentina_108 [34]

The genetic material is identical in asexual reproduction- in order for organisms to be strong they need variety so if a disease comes, some of the species may be able to fight it off because of their varied genetics
