A :-) it was given the name Newton (N). from this, the derived unit of energy (or work) is defined ,as the work produced when the unit of force causes a displacement equal to the unit of length of its point of application along its direction . It was given the name Joule (J).

Write a linear equation that expresses the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius (C) and degrees Fahrenheit (F

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

$\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C+32$

$\displaystyle C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)$

Explanation:

<u>Temperature Units Conversion </u>

The conversion formula between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales is well-known. But we'll use the provided data to derive the formula. Let's model the relationship between Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C) as a linear function like

$F=mC+b$

Where m and b must be computed according to the pair of conditions given. The values for each temperature scale are (C,F)=(0,32) and (100,212). Replacing the first value

$32=m\times 0+b$

It means that

$b=32$

By using the second point

$212=m\times 100+32$

Solving for m

$\displaystyle m=\frac{212-32}{100}=\frac{180}{100}$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle m=\frac{9}{5}$

So, the conversion formula is

$\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C+32$

Which is the widely known formula for temperature conversion

Solving for C, we get the inverse relation

$\boxed{\displaystyle C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)}$

maksim [4K]

(a) The ball’s maximum speed over the net is v(max) = √2gh.

(b) The maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s.

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time of motion of the ball is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

1 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1 = 4.9t²

t² = 1/4.9

t² = 0.204

t = 0.452 s

<h3>Horizontal speed of the ball</h3>

The horizontal speed of the ball is calculated as follows;

X = vt

v = X/t

v = (12 m)/(0.452)

v = 26.6 m/s ≈ 27 m/s (proved)

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

2gh = v²

√2gh = v(max)

Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.
