In which condition is relative velocity known by adding the velocity od the first body and that of the second body ?​
Softa [21]

Answer:

when a two bodies A and B are moving at an angle 180° with each other then the relative velocity is the sum of bodies the velocity .i.e,

when the bodies move the opposite direction

then their relative velocity is the sum of individual velocities.

Answer:

 F = - k (x-xo) a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.

Explanation:

The student wants to prove hooke's law which has the form

          F = - k (x-xo)

To do this we hang the spring in a vertical position and mark the equilibrium position on a tape measure, to simplify the calculations we can make this point zero by placing our reference system in this position.

Now for a series of known masses let's get them one by one and measure the spring elongation, building a table of weight vs elongation,

we must be careful when hanging the weights so as not to create oscillations in the spring

we look for the mass of each weight

         W = mg

          m = W / g

and we write them in a new column, we make a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation and it should give a straight line; the slope of this line is sought, which is the spring constant.

The fact of obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.

How much ice (at 0°C) must be added to 1.90 kg of water at 79 °C so as to end up with all liquid at 8 °C? (ci = 2000 J/(kg.°
muminat

m = mass of the ice added = ?

M = mass of water = 1.90 kg

c_{w} = specific heat of the water = 4186 J/(kg ⁰C)

c_{i}  = specific heat of the ice = 2000 J/(kg ⁰C)

L_{f} = latent heat of fusion of ice to water = 3.35 x 10⁵ J/kg

T_{ii}  = initial temperature of ice = 0 ⁰C

T_{wi} = initial temperature of water = 79 ⁰C

T = final equilibrium temperature = 8 ⁰C

using conservation of heat

Heat gained by ice = Heat lost by water

m c_{w}  (T - T_{ii} ) + m L_{f}  = M c_{w}  (T_{wi} - T)

inserting the values

m (4186) (8 - 0) + m (3.35 x 10⁵ ) = (1.90) (4186) (79 - 8)

m = 1.53 kg
