Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti

Alex

Answer:

A) The speed of the water must be 8.30 m/s.

B) Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver is 70.12 Joules.

Explanation:

A) Mass of squid with water = 6.50 kg

Mass of water in squid cavuty = 1.55 kg

Mass of squid = $m_1=6.50 kg- 1.55 kg=4.95 kg$

Velocity achieved by squid = $v_1=2.60 m/s$

Momentum gained by squid = $P=m_1v_1$

Mass of water = $m_2=1.55 kg$

Velocity by which water was released by squid = $v_2$

Momentum gained by water but in opposite direction = $P'=m_2v_2$

P = P'

$m_1v_1=m_2v_2$

$v_2=\frac{m_1v_1}{m_2}=\frac{4.95 kg\times 2.60 m/s}{1.55 kg}=8.30 m/s$

B) Kinetic energy does the squid create by this maneuver:

Kinetic energy of squid = K.E = $\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}$

Kinetic energy of water = K.E' = $\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}$

Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver:

$K.E+K.E'=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}$

$=\frac{1}{2}\times 4.95 kg\times (2.60 m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}\times 1.55 kg\times (8.30 m/s)^2=70.12 Joules$

An object is moving at 2.50 m/s [E]. At a time 3.00 seconds later the object is traveling at 1.50 m/s

babunello [35]

Given parameters:

First velocity = 2.50m/s

Time of travel = 3s

Second velocity = 1.50m/s

Unknown:

The displacement during the first interval = ?

Velocity is the displacement of a body with time. Displacement is a distance move in a specific direction by a body.

Velocity = $\frac{Displacement}{Time taken}$

So;

Displacement = Velocity x Time taken

Now input the parameter for the first velocity and time of travel;

Displacement = 2.5 x 3 = 7.5m

The displacement id 7.5m

Heat energy and thermal energy are the same because heat energy is thermal energy. Also thermal energy and temperature are the same because temperature is measuring heat in degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit. Hope this helps!
