Answer:

2.572 m/s²

Explanation:

Convert the given initial velocity and final velocity rates to m/s:

65 km/h → 18.0556 m/s
35 km/h → 9.72222 m/s

The motorboat's displacement is 45 m during this time.

We are trying to find the acceleration of the boat.

We have the variables v₀, v, a, and Δx. Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation.

(9.72222)² = (18.0556)² + 2a(45)
94.52156173 = 326.0046914 + 90a
-231.4831296 = 90a
a = -2.572

The magnitude of the boat's acceleration is |-2.572| = 2.572 m/s².

Answer:

The angular acceleration is $0.209\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity, $\omega_{i} = 30.0\ rpm$

Angular velocity, $\omega_{f} = 50.0\ rpm$

Time t = 10.0 sec

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using formula of angular acceleration

$\alpha=\dfrac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

$\alpha=\dfrac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{i}}{\Delta t}$

$\alpha=\dfrac{50.0-30.0}{10.0}$

Now, we change the angular velocity in rad/s.

$\omega=20\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

$\omega=2.09\ rad/s$

$\alpha=\dfrac{2.09}{10.0}$

$\alpha=0.209\ rad/s^2$

Hence, The angular acceleration is $0.209\ rad/s^2$

Two liquids, A and B, have equal masses and equal initial temperatures. Each is heated for the same length of time over identica

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

Explanation:

Liquid A is hotter than the liquid B after both the liquids are heated identically for the same duration of time from the same initial temperature then according to heat equation,

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$

where:

m = mass of the body

c = specific heat of the body

$\Delta T=$ change in temperature of the body

The identical heat source supplies the heat for the same amount of time then the quantity of heat supplied is also equal.

So for constant heat, constant mass the temperature change is inversely proportional to the specific of heat of the liquid.

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{m} \times \frac{1}{c}$

$\Delta T\propto\frac{1}{c}$

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

If Sarah melts 10g of tin. What mass of melted tin would she have at the end of the experiment?

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

10g

Explanation:

As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".

Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...

Hence,

The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...
