Due to its polarity and hydrogen bonding water can absorb heat without a significant temperature change.. The high specific heat of water helps regulate the rate at which air changes temperature, which is why the temperature change between seasons is gradual instead of sudden, especially near the oceans.
Answer:
2.84 m/s
Explanation:
At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:
N = 0
So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:
where
m is the mass of the water bucket
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity
v is the speed of the bucket
r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle
Solving for v,

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. To determine acceleration, we need to know the initial velocity and the final velocity and the time elapsed. From the given values, we need t o calculate for the initial velocity. We use some kinematic equations. We do as follows:
x = v0t + at^2/2
60 = v0(6) + a(6)^2/2
60 = 6v0 + 18a (EQUATION 1)
vf = v0 + at
15 = v0 + a(6)
15 = v0 + 6a (EQUATION 2)
Solving for v0 and a,
v0 = 5 m/s
a = 1.7 m/s^2
