Answer:

18000 Bg

Explanation:

after 15 minutes = 36000/2

After 30 minutes = 36000/4

30 minutes × 2 = 1 hour

After 1 hour = 36000/4 × 2 = 18000 Bg

Hello.

The answer is <span>remains the same.

</span>The total amount of energy stays the same because the 1st Law of Thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only change forms. <span>So the chemical energy is just being converted into heat and light.

In order to model the motion of an extinct ape, scientists measure its hand and arm bones. From shoulder to wrist, the arm bones
wel

Answer:

0.37 m

Explanation:

Let the shoulder be the origin.

The center of mass of the arm bones is 0.60 m/2 = 0.30 m and the center of mass of the hand bones is 0.10 m/2 = 0.05 m since they are modeled as straight rods with uniform density and the center of mass of a rod is x = L/2 where L is the length of the rod.

The center of mass y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂)/(m₁ + m₂) where m₁ = mass of arm bones = 4.0 kg, y₁ = distance center of mass of arm bones  from shoulder = 0.30 m, m₂ = mass of hand bones = 1.0 kg and y₂ = distance of center of mass hand bones from shoulder = x₁ + distance of center of hand bones from wrist = 0.60 m + 0.05 m = 0.65 m

Substituting these into the equation for the center of mass, we have

y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂)/(m₁ + m₂)

y = (4.0 kg × 0.30 m + 1.0 kg × 0.65 m)/(4.0 kg + 1.0 kg)

y = (1.20 kgm + 0.65 kgm)/5.0 kg

y = 1.85 kgm/5.0 kg

y =  0.37 m

The distance of the center of mass from the shoulder is thus y = 0.37 m
