Answer:

Why do metals conduct heat so well? The electrons in metal are delocalised electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Part a)

$T = 0.81 s$

Part b)

$v_x = 3.33 m/s$

Part c)

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

Part d)

$\theta = 49.55 degree$

Part e)

$T = 1.11 s$

Explanation:

Part a)

initial vertical position = 1.02 m

maximum height = 1.80 m

$\Delta y = 1.80 - 1.02$

$\Delta y = 0.78 m$

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$0 - v_y^2 = 2(-9.81)(0.78)$

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$v_y = v_i + at$

$0 = 3.91 - 9.81 t_1$

$t_1 = 0.39 s$

Now when it again touch the ground then its speed is given as

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(1.80 - 0.95)$

$v_y = 4.08 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$4.08 = v_i + at$

$4.08 = 0 + 9.81 t_2$

$t_2 = 0.42 s$

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 0.81 s$

Part b)

Horizontal velocity

$v_x = \frac{x}{t}$

$v_x = \frac{2.70}{0.81}$

$v_x = 3.33 m/s$

Part c)

vertical velocity is the intial y direction velocity

$v_y = 3.91 m/s$

Part d)

Take off angle is given as

$tan\theta = \frac{3.91}{3.33}$

$\theta = 49.55 degree$

Part e)

initial vertical position = 1.20 m

maximum height = 2.50 m

$\Delta y = 2.50 - 1.20$

$\Delta y = 1.30 m$

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$0 - v_y^2 = 2(-9.81)(1.30)$

$v_y = 5.05 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$v_y = v_i + at$

$0 = 5.05 - 9.81 t_1$

$t_1 = 0.51 s$

Now when it again touch the ground then its speed is given as

$v_f^2 - v_y^2 = 2a \Delta y$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)(2.50 - 0.72)$

$v_y = 5.9 m/s$

time taken by it to reach this height

$5.9 = v_i + at$

$5.9 = 0 + 9.81 t_2$

$t_2 = 0.60 s$

$T = t_1 + t_2$

$T = 1.11 s$

What piece of sports equipment is aerodynamic

Mashcka [7]

Aerobie. Frisbee. Discus. Javelin. I suppose an American football to some extent.
Pull! Clay pigeons. Arrows. Wingsuit. Kites. Hang gliders. Sails. sailboat keels/dagger boards. Water skis. Ski jumping skis. Boomerang. 
I'm excluding spheres and parachutes as bluff bodies even though aerodynamics often plays a big part in their motion.

Easy, take the top off your Thermos bottle filled with hot coffee. Assuming perfect insulation, that hot coffee is isolated from the environment; but when the top is opened the heat can now escape to that environment.
