If the two cups are the same/equal in all regards the spoon makes the difference in heat loss. Metal spoon is a good conductor, heat conducts up the spoon handle. Radiant and convection losses occur in the surrounding air. Metal becomes a “heat sink”.

Spoon will feel warmer to the touch than a pottery or foam cup that is not a good conductor.

The distance from earth to mars ranges between 780,000,000 km and 380,000,000 km depending on the time of the year. The speed of
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The minimum time, t = 21.11 m

Explanation:

Given,

The maximum distance between the Earth and Mars, d = 780,000,000 km

The maximum distance between the Earth and Mars, d = 780,000,000 km

The speed of the light, c = 300,000 km/s

The distance and speed of the object is related using the formula,

                           v = d / t

                            t = d / v

The minimum time it takes for data transmission is when the distance between the Mars and the Earth is at minimum.

Therefore,

                            t = 380,000,000 km / 300,000 km/s

                              = 1266.67 s

                              = 21.11 minutes

Hence, the minimum time it takes for data transmitted by the Mars Surveyor to reach earth, t = 21.11 minutes

While running at a constant velocity, how should you throw a ball with respect to you so that you can catch it yourself?
timurjin [86]
You are running at constant velocity in the x direction, and based on the 2D definition of projectile motion, Vx=Vxo. In other words, your velocity in the x direction is equal to the starting velocity in the x direction. Let's say the total distance in the x direction that you run to catch your own ball is D (assuming you have actual values for Vx and D). You can then use the range equation, D= (2VoxVoy)/g, to find the initial y velocity, Voy. g is gravitational acceleration, -9.8m/s^2. Now you know how far to run (D), where you will catch the ball (xo+D), and the initial x and y velocities you should be throwing the ball at, but to find the initial velocity vector itself (x and y are only the components), you use the pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse. Because you know all three sides of the triangle, you can also solve for the angle you should throw the ball at, as that is simply arctan(y/x).

Derive the kinetic equations for Vmax and KM using the transit time and net rate constant method as discussed in class and follo
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Rate = vmax k3/k2+k3

Explanation:

The rate of reaction when the enzyme is saturated with substrate is the maximum rate of reaction, is referred to as Vmax.

This is usually expressed as the Km ie. Michaelis constant of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity. For practical purposes, Km is the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax.

Please kindly check attachment for the step by step solution of the given problem.

I just need number 2
il63 [147K]

We will apply the conservation of linear momentum to answer this question.

Whenever there is an interaction between any number of objects, the total momentum before is the same as the total momentum after. For simplicity's sake we mostly use this equation to keep track of the momenta of two objects before and after a collision:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

Note that v₁ and v₁' is the velocity of m₁ before and after the collision.

Let's choose m₁ and v₁ to represent the bullet's mass and velocity.

m₂ and v₂ represents the wood block's mass and velocity.

The bullet and wood will stick together after the collision, so their final velocities will be the same. v₁' = v₂'. We can simplify the equation by replacing these terms with a single term v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v' + m₂v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Let's assume the wood block is initially at rest, so v₂ is 0. We can use this to further simplify the equation.

m₁v₁ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Here are the given values:

m₁ = 0.005kg

v₁ = 500m/s

m₂ = 5kg

Plug in the values and solve for v'

0.005×500 = (0.005+5)v'

v' = 0.4995m/s

v' ≅ 0.5m/s

How do the units of work and power compare?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

W = Fd, where F is force and d is displacement

Unit of work done :

The SI unit of force is Newton (N) and that of displacement is meter (m). So, the unit of work done is N-m. It is call Joule. It means that the unit of work done is Joule.

Power is given by rate at which the work is done. It is given by :

P = W/t, W is work done and t is time

Unit of power:

Unit of work is Joule (J) and that of time is second (s). It means that the unit of power is Watt and it is equal to Joule/second

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The unit for work is a joule. The unit for power is a watt, which is a joule per second".
